    After this, no one should ever question any complete Russian athlete ban


    Or if not complete ban, then only option would be "event organizer provided, unmodified white dress", with lifetime sports ban if dress is modified.

    I thought it was a bit rich of the German Embassy to make the comparison, however, now that you went ahead and framed it that way Nexxo....I say we forget about this one and move on.

    Cough.

    Those who do not study history...



    ...are apparently destined to interview a World War II veteran without asking a rather important question. Whoopsie.

    (Yes, it's real - and, oddly, is now 404ing.)

    'ceasefire' so long as you go to Russia or Belarus (other exits have been shelled during evacuation).

    That'll play well on State TV back in Russia, "look, they're fleeing the Nazis to us and our allies in Belarus, look at what saviours we are..."

    I'm the most eye-roll-inducingly centrist who ever centristed, how have I never come across this outlet before.

    I was rather upset when I realised I had almost got to the 2020 election without finding it.

    Just once, I'd like our lot to seem like they have a clue what they're doing. Just to see what it feels like, y'know?

    We can't get the things we need in and out of the country, so of course we're not going to be very good at getting things we don't need into the country.

    Ahh yes, that peaceful time where there were drills for nuclear war breaking out and bunkers being built and a secretive arms race.

    Mmm. Peaceful.

    I'd tell them to google 1970s living standards in Russia... but they'd probably get sent to a gulag if they actually tried to.
