Yeah, there surely would never have been oil discovered in those lands if this nonsensical thought exercise could come true. Why, if the US-centered multinationals never had to take over the work of those British, Dutch and Belgian colonial empires, surely everything would have turned out just fine....

Always hit and miss. Instrumentals from the 3 70s albums with Bruford are probably my top picks and get the band a NC from me. The 80s stuff is pretty good. Most of the lyrics are pretty embarrassing from any period. THRAK and Construcktion of Light were so pointless I didn't even bother with the ot...

When the Israelis have their shit together they can do stuff like Stuxnet and all their assassinations of nuclear physicists in Iran that prevent it. They absolutely don't have their shit together right now, but Iran is not going to c...

I don't know anything about recent developments, but sometimes I wonder if Hamas is run or at least infiltrated by Mossad operatives. Or at very least, easily manipulated by the Mossad. This is a convenient war for the Likudniks, and could conceivably shore up public opinion behind Netayahu as a st...

I was mostly interested in reading what area meteorologists and climate scientists were saying. I never wanted to post or even have an account. That's somehow impossible now, which seems really odd. You'd think that advertising to even casual viewers who were interested in very specific accounts wo...

The Irish must have had a laugh among themselves when they composed their written language. I mean what the hell is that. https://i.ibb.co/hFZFGYX/0irish.png Maybe they're responsible for all the (apparently) missing vowels in Serbian? https://www.ling.upenn.edu/~beatrice/humor/clinton-deploys-vowe...
