US power comes from alliances with a bunch of other pretty damn powerful countries. If it does too much to strain Canadian, EU, UK, Japanese, South Korean, and Taiwanese relationships, US power goes away.
Failure to continue to aid Ukraine weakens the value of US allyship to UK, EU, and Taiwan.
The problem is that the way we talk about dating has been dominated by people with a political agenda.
Because 10 year olds have been talking about dating longer than red pill has been around. Not dead seriously, but they’re not unaware.

This but unironically.
Fuck appeals to nature.
“Sigma” sure, but saying “rizz” (etymology: short for charisma) is red pill is like saying talking about dating at all is red pill (and black Americans used it before Kai Cenat made it mainstream.)
Do not use the Trump victory as an excuse for an unfettered fear and disdain of young people unless you wish for more news like it.
If they used Mastodon or Lemmy, those people would be less tense.
If they had more normies on it, maybe. But Lemmy seems to be composed primarily of the tensest people in the world to me.
TikTok I’d wait for evidence, but Elon absolutely boosted people like Tate
There are poll headlines I pray are true and ones I pray aren’t…but say it with me:
POLLS. DON’T. MATTER!!!
He’s telling conservative men to restrain their wives from voting.
To me it’s abundantly clear this is coming from our side. Those plaques are clearly sarcastic.
PSVR2 died because it’s not backwards compatible with PSVR1.
Half Life Alyx is like if we got Super Mario 64, and then four years later the games influenced by it just didn’t come.
Nobody needs to invoke Hitler to say infrastructure spending is good.

Women and LGBT people have been the top buyers of guns for a while.
The thing is, we know Nintendo does have in-house developed emulators that they used for Virtual Console and then NSO and the Classic Edition.
It’s fairly likely they didn’t take the effort to port those to PC for the museum, but still.
NYC, San Francisco, and Santa Monica did it. A lawsuit Airbnb put forth to to block it in NYC got dismissed even.
When Harris first came on the scene I thought to myself that the election became a battle between Reagan nostalgia and Obama nostalgia. And I cannot blame any American for feeling Obama nostalgia because I feel Obama nostalgia, but reliance on nostalgia blinds us to new ideas and current issues.
Nothing will be done until the politicians can no longer ignore end FPTP movements.
I think the Ukraine situation does more to increase the favorability of military spending than anything with China.
But mostly I think America being late to intervene in WWII still hangs over the American public’s heads (to me it would seem this is the point when anti-interventionism stopped being the norm.)
And before anyone says “America joined WWII late,” I want to say that’s a lie by omission most of the time. It’s true that America put troops on the ground only after Pearl Harbor…but the US government was already sending supplies to the allies before that; for the entire duration of the war, the US had an anti-Nazi government. Hypocritically so due to the US policies against black people, but some people phrase it in a way that makes it sound like they want us to believe the US was close to joining the Axis before Pearl Harbor (also bringing up the MSG rally, which…you could find a comparable amount of Nazis in any Western country at the time.) Anti-interventionism was the absolute norm in the US at the time.
Now, it is incorrect that US History class casts Americans as the primary heroes of WWII.
