vim will load some other rc file if it cant find your ~/.vimrc. check what it has loaded with :scriptnames

also, try starting vim in a brand new terminal with vim -u NONE and check if it’s still happening.

amazon’s probably boosting any product with “white power” in it, that’s why you’re seeing this now

russia definitely isnt getting everything they want out of this, since the US will still be a country afterwards.

but tell me, how do you imagine these peace talks to go? do you really think there’s a chance russia just goes home after spending years taking eastern ukraine? do you think the US can make russia do this? how? with more sanctions? by putting boots on the ground and getting us into a nuclear exchange? by sending even more badly trained, badly equipped ukrainians to die on the front?

the one thing NATO hasnt tried is actually ramping up production of basic war materiel so they can at least keep pace with the russian war industry. but at this point, even that’s too little too late, since they’re running out of ukrainian soldiers to give the weapons to.

yeah, but just some of them, which is sustainable. ukraine is sending all of them at this point, probably

that’s how i know it’s time to go to bed

isnt ansar allah the yemeni government though?

blink

it’s definitely not from the office, lol. it’s an old old joke that probably predates television.

they’re losing and still they expect to dictate terms. amazing.

another thing to consider, they didnt often have the boss watching them while they worked. yes, the endless chores had to be done every god damned day, but your time was yours to manage to a large extent. want to pop off and chat with your neighbor for an hour in the middle of the day? who’s gonna stop you? who’s gonna look at your timesheet? what timesheet?
