stops the economy like a handbrake. — ssu

Some would argue this is needed: a pause and reflection. I'm looking for silver linings...

With fossil fuel energy prices increasing in countries such as the UK, could this crisis catalyse the 'green economy'?

god must be a conspiracy theorist?

We're probably privvy to about 2% of the truth of what is actually happening and the reasons behind it

I disagree with you... — Tobias

:cheer:

.

you disagree that there is something to agree/disagree with?

Is there something to agree or disagree with? — Tobias

There is.

Democracy is dying. Democracy and the globalized free market have failed a lot of people - at least that's the narrative people are starting to believe.

If trump makes a comeback it's game over.

Western Europe may be a last bastion...

@baker's got daddy-issues with putin

@Paine @Noble Dust @Jack Cummins @Agent Smith agree?

"New data from a scientific "accident" has suggested that life may actually flash before our eyes as we die."

@Sam26 @Tobias agree?

you stole @jamalrob's whole script?

You stole that quip off @jamalrob

your mood before, during, or after listening?

thank you. My thoughts on Russia will only change when it becomes less tsar-ist - ironic for someone with my newfound moniker

So far, the god's appear to have said "no". You may be a changeling yourself; one who changes with the tide; and yet, you cannot change into a changeling, according to the obscure will of the gods. I'm reminded of C.S. Lewis's late masterpiece TIll We Have Faces. You rail and rail, and yet...you're faced with the blank will of a force you don't understand. You long to change, and yet, you're simply...The Opposite... — Noble Dust

Little help @Baden ?

perco — unenlightened

I will consider that name

I'm sorry for doing that. I would add that putin insults all Russian women on a daily basis through his authoritarian regime.

I agree in principle, and the blame lies with the fairies.

Why is this being hotly debated again? Has there been another flare up?

well they better do it before they (the conservative party) become the 'boris johnson party' - like the republicans are now the trump party :sad:

They won't be able to get that Cunt out. The UK democratic system is fucked, quite frankly.

@swstephe last online 2 hours ago after a 5 year absence... Spooky.

Where is @swstephe? That user mentioned collusion between the US and Russia. Perhaps this is all a big lampoon in order to keep all respective powers that be in power... they're all éminence grises!

As far as I can see this is just your prejudice about Russian women. — jamalrob

Not so. Putin's ultra-conservative treatment of women in Russia has led to the emergence of that stereotype about them.

did you live through the Cuban missile crisis? I didn't and for my generation Ukraine is a generally terrifying prospect if you consider it for extended periods.

But this is a time for clear-headed, measured, assiduous communication between all sides involved. Upon initially going through this thread I felt like insulting those I believe to be backing Putin (something about taunting certain people about not having a real Russian tradwife like another particular member presumably does), however, this ultimately gets no one nowhere. Just a microcosm of the overall discussion, but worth noting.

Thanks, I hadn't heard any of that stuff. I'm always looking for new music

The more I consider esotericism, the more it seems like it's present in all parts of our lives.
