Calling for Japanese people to have their skulls split open by the Chinese MFA, a PRC diplomat calling for Takaichi to be beheaded, industrial espionage, etc. All are stuff PRC does on a daily basis. The World is not only the US and the other states without agency. China and Russia back in 2015 have done attacks on the US in cyber that would constitute war by their constitution. Reporting the facts is not manipulation when this has been a thing for decades.

Deeply unserious comment. France is one of the countries in which the system is the most distributive and the taxes the highest.

In France, the biggest hurdle is our pension system that stifles education, health, and infrastructure spending but even the electorate wants the boomers to earn more when they already get 110% of what working people do. Still the UK’s triple lock might make them more of a gerantocracy in the future. Also note that if you read the official statistics for pensions in Grance the ones by gov workers are counted towards the budget of said institution. So now 90% of new education spending is actually getting to boomers. 1/4 is already for them. 1/3 of military spending too etc

Yep. Also note that if you count solo missions + dailies + ranked, you get around 85 packs per set which is largely insufficient if you want to collect even 1 set fully without trading.

There is no reason the shinies and higher rarities are locked up when rn you trade cards of the same rarity. No secondary market from botted accounts would prop up as you would need the card of the equivalent rarity.

Nice composition!

Another idea that came to me: try to get the Wishiwashi emblem. That Pokemon is very cool

Yeah idk why they banned trading shinies! Nice pull, also managed to get one( my first Darkrai too, after I pulled at least 35 packs of Spacetime Smackdown.

To add to that in general they need to reduce the animation speed from clicking buttons. Things like just changing a deck or opening a pack feel slow.

Just finished another one and got 2 rare pulls: Beedril EX and Gholdengo. I think the rewards for new accounts are very high. The challenges are worth the time spent.

Ooops, I’m dumb. Thanks! Fixing the title

Please take your schizopopscislopbrained stuff out of the post. JNIM have been a thing for a decade and what is notable is that the US is speaking about the group for the first time when news about Africa are non-existent in media.

Certainly

Nice to see my memes got in here too!

Nice to see my memes got posted in here too! This is not the translation, but a play on the misattributed quote to Dudayev “russia will disappear when the Ukranian sun rises”. The text says " Ukraine, Azawad( Tuaregs), HTS ( Hayat Tahrir al-Sham), here she is, the holy russia", which is a play on this meme. I have at least 10 of those tank ones laying around so I could post them too.
