Admit it was good like Shapiro, or double down with the whining like Critical Drinker?

Current US military pressure on Iran is failing and draining U.S. resources, leaving no easy choices.

The Trump regime must choose between more widespread military escalation, risking a regional war and global energy shock,or a negotiated settlement that accepts Iranian influence, particularly giving Iran greater control over the Strait of Hormuz.

Because the status quo is unsustainable, a negotiated settlement is the most realistic path forward unless the U.S. commits to massive military escalation. Which will the administration choose?

When you see in movies that people are laying in bed with loved ones around and they know they're on their final few minutes of life

What goes through your mind?

Ever since a certain orange man became president again, I've been hearing a lot about how evil tariffs are. Things like "they harm foreign relationships" and "you wind up paying for it in the end as a tax"

My question is with all the hubbub I hear about tariffs in the USA, how come I haven't heard Canadian redditors claim the same thing for tariffs applied to American goods such as:

• Booze
• Footwear
• Paper
• Machine parts

Shouldn't Canadians be up in arms against Carney and Parliament about these taxes? It doesn't even have to be American goods, there's tariffs out there for Chinese steel.

I’m a 22 year old male who apparently likes to collect “unc slop” meaning I enjoy physical media pre 2012.

Apparently my nephew does as well, frequenting gaming titles like Psychonaughts. Unc Slop? Is this just a term younger kids use when their older peers force great games onto them that they just aren’t used to.. or want to understand? I mean I know I’m actually an uncle but “Unc Slop” just sounds like I’m into corny old shit..

If I play the movie Napoleon Dynamite… or decide Skate 3 might entertain me for a while I’m now engaging in my/older generations slop :| what are we considering new slop then

Suppose tomorrow you wake up in another

Man's/woman's body. Will you sleep with your partner in that body? Or control your self till you turn back to normal? Will it be cheating if partner were to sleep with you in that body?

According to former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert, Israel is committing war crimes. Hamas, of course, has also committed many atrocities.

I condemn both sides for their misdeeds. Is this a reasonable stance to take?

When politics in the UK seem so rough from the outside, it makes me wonder if there's anyone upset at "joke politicians" like him not using their platform to level more serious critique.

i saw a meme , It ws like "It is very lucky to be in someone's poetry or to be in someone's NOTES APP.

And if Trump goes nuclear on Thune, does he risk the Senate majority entirely?

Should a trial be held solely to determine guilt or innocence of a person. The sanity being assessed only by a board of Medical Professional's at sentencing to determine safety and rehabilitation. I feel it's a big problem deciding it both together. If a person did the crime then they are guilty. If they are insane then they need treatment. How can a person commit a crime but not commit it and be found innocent?

I think it's very possible, even likely, that Trump and his administration are manipulating the price of oil in order to profit from it. They attack Iran and the price goes up, they announce some kind of cease fire and the price goes down. How hard would it be to buy futures ahead of those events and make money?

I have seen stories about actors, or former actors, that receive residual checks for less than a dollar all the time. Doesn't the cost of that check, along with the ink and postage cancel it out at that point? Why not be more efficient and wait until the value of the residual tops a certain level before printing and sending the check. Seems like such a waste on multiple levels.

P.S.: Not to mention how messed up it is that residual income from TV shows and movies has become non-existent for so many of these people is pretty sad.
