> General facts may indeed be collected from them, such as that Europe is now at war, that Bonaparte has been a successful warrior, that he has subjected a great portion of Europe to his will, &c., &c.; but no details can be relied on. I will add, that the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them; inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods & errors

There was an Anglo-Saxon bishop named Chad, coming from a Celtic word meaning “battle”. He later became a saint.

Because this gets us from point A to point B relatively peacefully, without splitting atoms over major cities...
And what? There's nothing left of any of these cities. It's already over.
They will be dead.
Their kids are fucked

Perhaps I'm overly optimistic, but I think there is finally a robot lawn mower that looks decent enough for me to buy and try.
I have been waiting YEARS for a no-wire tracked mower with actual mulching blades (instead of the silly razor blades or string trimmer hunks of junk).
It certainly isn't cheap, but if it lasts for 3+ years and I don't have to mow for 3 hours each weekend, then it's a good buy.

The US didn't start the war, Israel did. And the US can't end the war unless they're willing to pressure Israel (lol).
As long as the US is an empire, they are unable to walk away from the petrodollar and therefore the GCC. But Israel wants Iran destroyed because it's the only serious competitor in the region, so if the US wants to wind down the war, Israel will just escalate it to drag the US into a land war.
The smartest thing the US could do is declare bankruptcy and leave without destroying Iran so then Iran is Israel's problem. But that's unlikely to happen either because too many powerful people in America believe that they have to destroy Iran and setup Israel as a world government in order to bring back Jesus Christ.
Eschatology is weak men telling themselves they have to make hard times.
