I suggest they pay close attention to whatever Trump suggests and go with that. Should be really incredible advice from such a stable genius.

What monsters to be gloating over citizens fearful of getting killed by suicide drones. Russia can't beat the Ukrainian military so instead they pick on civilian targets like terrorists always do.
I'm grateful for all the great work

does in translating the nightly unhinged Russian media disinformation. Often funny, frustrating and enlightening all at once!
You're all the best! Thanks for being part of

Head of RT Margarita Simonyanβthe mouthpiece of the regime that refuses to call its invasion of Ukraine a warβrevisits her favorite topics: "hypocrisy" of the West, which she compares to Russia's "sincerity." Simonyan says that the British are hypocritical & Americans are stupid.
Meanwhile in Russia: head of RT Margarita Simonyan said that Russians don't mind casualties, don't want to live normal lives, are used to clawing things out of history by force and know that it requires blood.

Last week I was visiting my dad who only watches Fox News.
My dad: That JD Vance was a really great pick.
Me: <laughs out loud>
Dad: What?!
Russian propagandists agree with their "colleague Tucker Carlson" and start portraying Jack Teixeira as a βmini-Trumpβ and a βheroic leaker,β having previously described him as a "total nobody," who shouldnβt have had access to classified documents.
Olga Skabeeva set out to prove that life in North Korea is perfectly normal. The result? Quite the opposite. Despite calling Kim Jong Un "the light of the nation," Skabeeva was followed and sternly told what not to say and what not to film in Pyongyang.

Just wasting everyoneβs time on a useless bill that has zero chance of passing, just for the sake of political grandstanding. This is exactly what I expect out of you so nice work.
Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov raged about the downing of an IL-76 plane in the Belgorod region, unraveled about technological issues constantly plaguing his program and threatened to shoot his subscribers for asking the wrong questions.

My loser brother took half my dadβs money, skipped town, spent it all on booze and whatever else, ended up trying to live off of scraps in a pig pen. He comes home and my dad throws a huge party for him. My dad calls me out when I complain he never threw a party for me. AITA?
@Bemorte
Back when I was LDS I thought if I ever come into a bunch of money, I'm going to approach BYU with a huge donation to fund a new building. I would have insisted on calling it the Steve Otteson Building. "Meet me at the SOB at 3 pm."

I used to be judgmental when my wife would ever eat coffee ice cream. When I left the LDS church she said βDoes this mean I can eat coffee ice cream now?β I realized what a jerk I had been.

My middle son and I are always getting that alert for each other! Yesterday we were IN THE SAME CAR and we both got it! No idea how or why we get those n

I interpret his death (and resurrection, which is whole other thing that can be interpreted) as God showing that God does not return violence for violence, and God suffers with us when we suffer. Jesus was killed because he opposed the oppressors, not because God demanded it.
@wartranslated
I hope you have a great stay! You really deserve a break. The number of things you translate for us is really incredible. Thank you for all your hard work.

Me watching the Mr. Rogers documentaries and realizing he was the one who taught me how to love others in a way my church never did.
@hmdoppelganger
When I left Mormonism, I sought out congregations with female pastors. I quickly realized how much the LDS church suffers because they don't treat women as true equals in opportunities and authority. My wife has a gift for ministry that was not being fully realized as LDS.
@whitecatprophcy
I used to give my wife crap for eating coffee ice cream. When I left the church before she did, she asked me: βDoes this mean I can eat coffee ice cream now?β Ouch!

What a horrible mistake our country made by not electing your mother president. So much human loss because we didn't have a person who was willing to stand up to the challenge of covid-19. I know she would have done an incredible job to fight it.
@Jenndola
Was once at a 24 hr pharmacy getting meds for a teenage son who broke his collarbone. It was late and the poor pharmacist was alone and getting yelled at by ungrateful customers. I told him I was sorry and was grateful for his work. Seemed like a thankless job. π
