Yeah, we have hard times ahead, and probably a lot of people will die, but I don’t see humanity go extinct any time soon.

I recommend to watch “A case for optimism” from Melodysheep , which goes into that a lot more.

I’m not in the US and not planning to go there any time soon, so I’m good. I agree with the sentiment in general though😅

Yeah, it’s insane. Usually I don’t follow what Trump says 1:1, but read about it in some news article, social media, etc. That is bad enough, but when I actually hear him speak sometimes, I need to cringe so bad… And then I remember a majority of Americans either decided “yep, that guy seems the best option” or “can’t see a difference between the candidates” and I lose all hope in humanity.

I would go for a walk every day😅

Because of that, I actually considered for a moment that some government official in denmark is called Lee Jae Myung. 😅

I would say the rest of NATO should be able to hold against Russia for sure, especially in its current state.

I would just be worried about short-term problems because of disrupted logistics due to the US withdrawing. Or maybe that other countries would follow the US in leaving.

But in the end, that is just my guess.

What a stupid timeline, in which the above is true🙄

First the settlers 2 and Caesar 3, a bit later and with a lot more impact Guild Wars (1).

Eh, a few days from now Trump will say something like “I had an amazing call with Putin. He is a great guy, Ukraine should surrender now”. Dude can’t remember what he said yesterday.

I agree with you, but I would bet Slovenia is not very high on the “where to invade next” list😅

Good advice, that I would definitely recommend in a place like Germany. But still: First rule of Usenet is to not talk about the Usenet. :D

I really got allergic to sensationalist headlines like this. “X goes nuclear and destroys Y”. I’m refusing to click on stuff like that…

Reciting every day in school how great your country is, is peak brainwashing to me. When I learned about that, it was so weird to me.

Only a good guy with a car can stop a bad guy with a car though. Also if everyone in a crowd had a car, stuff like this wouldn’t be possible.

/s for the people in the back

Europa Universalis V confirmed?

Any bets that it will take less than 90 days before we get the next tariff circus?

To avoid a kindergarten infinity+1 problem, one side should just explicitly ban all trade at some point and not just do it implicitly by bringing tariffs to the moon. 🤷‍♂️

I hate this timeline

But, you know, Trump is always right! What does backtrack even mean? /s obviously 😵

I’m optimistic that it will happen eventually. The EU generally is moving with stuff like this, even though it is slow as fuck. But well, let’s see, not promising anything…
