America is more than ready, considering how much we spend on the military. This article is a few years old, and definitely sensationalist, but is still an interesting read-

And on top of that, the US Army just started deploying robotic troop carriers, and is finishing up remote combat vehicles for the front lines so that first contact isn't with soldiers. Yes, we're going to have killer robots on the front line. And soon.

It's like they all watched House of Cards and were like, "Waiiiit a minute.... We could do that!"

I found these cloths years ago, and they clean extremely well and go a long time before needing to wash them. Then I'll just throw them in the laundry with my clothes, take them out and air dry instead of throwing in the dryer.

If I my glasses end up getting particularly dirty, like grease spots from cooking, I do the dawn dish soap method and dry them with one of those cloths.

Oh stop pulling an OP. Unnaturally high levels of CO2 can be dangerous after long term exposure - hours in an industrial environment that already has a bunch of other crap in the air. Carbon Monoxide from your home furnace at high levels knocks you out and kills you in 30 minutes. Still not the same.

"Carbon Monoxide is deadly, you can't tell me Carbon Dioxide is any different!"

Just because things have a similar name doesn't mean they're the same thing...

Because it exposes that someone who is making a living capitalizing off of extremist views that spread mass harm to the populace is a hypocrite that made sure to protect herself while telling everyone else that protection is a hoax, or at the least untrustworthy and harmful. Calling these people on their bullshit is a good thing to do. It's not the same thing as "OMG did you hear Taylor Swift broke up with her 35th boyfriend?!", it actually has real world consequences.

You made Keanu sad.

"Come on in and spend $15 on a soda" isn't exactly picking up the tab...

"Taking over another sovereign nation was just a 'special military operation'! It wasn't a 'war' until they started resisting and defending their homes and got assistance from the West! I mean, we all see how that works, right?! They should've just laid down and taken the beating, it would've avoided this whole thing!

...also it would be great if people would stop making fun of our military, it's making recruitment hard. There's only so many people we can imprison and conscript through Wagner."

I'm definitely gonna start working "You're shaking the slap tree!" into my rotation.
