Camo net edition
I did some volunteer work for mental health reasons…
Get some tea and water…
And biscuits and furniture fabric…
And some chicken nets, and you can make yourself a camo net, which can even sometimes withstand a drone attack…
Hand-made to order for Ukrainian units, according to their specific geographic needs. I got a little depressed when the volunteers told me about the need to provide grey camo nets for areas where the devastation is so total that there is no foliage left! Just burnt trees, buildings and the ground! As well corpses. Rather like Springfield will look on January 7th.
There’s a network of net makers around Ukraine, and in Poland with nets back-ordered months in advance and to order. There are no stocks except from China but Ukraine isn’t getting money because Scholz is a fucker, Biden and Republifuckers stopped their money, and fucker Rheinmetall needs to charge special price my friend for its shells.
But Trump is going to kill us, 50/50, so if you (if you’re an American) don’t vote because Gaza, then you’ll be shouting Gaza as they put you in an oven. And your family. The Palestinians will still be dead, but your family will join them.
And it will be the fault of a certain Ruska Kurwa…
Funnily enough this guy seems to be singing Kurwy in Polish
Speaking of fascists, space fascist Clan Smoke Fascist Jaguar!

Absolutely not
Military veterans have always been a major part of the American political landscape, since the first commander of the Continental Army was unanimously chosen as the first president of the unified republic. And in that time, the question of what level of deference to this class of veterans has been active - with Washington and Hamilton clashing with the likes of Benjamin Franklin over Washington’s creation of an ‘Order of Cincinnati’ to honor his comrades in the war and their descendants. Since that point, Americans have generally preferred to elect veterans - from militiamen to generals - to the nation’s highest office, and many below it.
Not like Trumpf is a veteran.
Just like his America hating pimp grandfather, who tried to move back to Bavaria but they chucked him out for being a draft dodging traitor.
And that is what makes The Apprentice, the new Trump biopic by the Iranian-Danish filmmaker Ali Abbasi, such an accomplishment, and Sebastian Stan’s performance as the main character so exquisitely compelling. Making cinematic gold out of this lame story is nothing less than filmmaking alchemy.
