Bro, Imma be honest, as a nicotine addict, I wouldnt encourage anyone get on it. You start seeing nicotine as a stimulant that you "need" to get through difficult tasks, or tasks that need focus, or shit, maybe you even need to game a bit better because you're sleep deprived(caused by the nicotine) and having an extra stimulant alongside some caffeine might help. You start using it to get through stuff, and then because of withdrawals, that """""justifies""""" your use of it to get through stuff even more. Not to mention nicotine's bad effects on your gum health and cardiovascular health.

By the way, for anyone reading this, fuck vaping. Harder to quit than smoking because a lot of people get nicotine salt disposables, or their mental process when in withdrawal/craving phase is "oh it's just vapor, not smoke which is carcinogenic, one more hit couldn't hurt". Which is true, smoke, tar, combustion, etc is the main cancer causing part of nicotine, but thinking of it like that doesn't help you quit.

Don't smoke, don't vape. Longest I've lasted is a month so far, and that's because I threw my little nic salt pen and carts away.

Edit Addendum: Btw, this is typed by a mofo who is still vaping, I relapsed. I fell into that same line of logic above. "I need it to get through work" type shit

Bluesky has a lot of artists. Posting this video here: https://youtu.be/I4mdMMu-3fc

A bit of speculation on my part, but I've been hearing it was actually the Japanese selling off US bonds that eventually made the Trump admin panic and stop the tariffs. I guess the power of God and Anime saved us from this bullshit for the most part. Perhaps this was one of the things discussed between China, Japan, and Korea?

They're thinking like Qing Dynasty or general Dynastic Era China? History really does repeat. They really want "Tribute" now....

Sigh....

Decadence? No. Moreso vanity, moreso arrogance, moreso pride is our downfall. The American people feel the need to feel as if they are superior to everyone out there. We fucking placed tariffs on Taiwan. They basically already agreed to cuck themselves and build a chip fab on US soil, thus eventually removing our need to protect them for their chips. But no, we fucked their wife, and now we're going for their ass too. Vanity, arrogance, pride. We are going down the same path as the Qing. Autarkic, Insular, leading to falling behind and getting fucked.

You know what I find funny. The US fucking whinges about China nearly all the time. Yet they seek to become Insular and Autarkic. They make the same mistake the Qing Dynasty did.

Edit Addendum: The Qing dynasty, is often seen as prizing its material abundance and cultural legacy so highly that it sometimes failed to adapt to new challenges and technological advancements. This narrow focus is often cited as one of the factors that contributed to their eventual decline.

Equating the greatness or state of the nation with it's wealth.

It'd be hilarious if egg imports into the US were blocked because of the global tariffs.

Imma just post this video here: https://youtu.be/5RpPTRcz1no

What the current administration is doing tracks with this video fairly accurately. Basically, "Network States" are what they want. It's basically what exists in Honduras right now in the form of "Prospera, which is a network state that operates in that country.

Doesn't that just make it easier for the US to conscript people?

I wonder if this has all just been a campaign to make Signal look untrustworthy to the US public? It would be bad for the fascist federales if the US public started using Signal en masse. Surveillance would be made significantly harder. They're currently blaming signal for the leak rn.

Which community on the .ml instance did you post this on?

Serve? In WW3? Will just be suicide. Motherfuckers will deploy, and immediately be hit by a fucking nuke. Imagine this, 1 million troops land on a beach, and then in one instant, 1 million troops are gone immediately. The only real survivors in that war will likely be submarine crews and suited up, souped up, CBRN troops either way too deep into enemy line or way away from the front lines. Any warfare after the nukes drop will just be indicative of whatever fucking spite or malice that's deep in humanity's heart. I mean shit, I've asked my military friends about WW3 once, and they said that if the world is suffering nuclear hellfire anyways, and they've somehow survived? They'd immediately turn their tanks and guns towards the very leaders who sent the world into such a Holocaust.
