I can't believe a small pack of Lucky Strike is still only 85 ARS at my local kiosko (slightly up from 75 a year ago). If I had less self-control, I would have picked up the habit again after moving here.

But at least it's a "diverse and inclusive" cabinet of warmongers and corporate lackeys. https://www.vice.com/en/article/qkjmvb/obamas-administration-sold-more-weapons-than-any-other-since-world-war-ii

I take it you voted for McCain-Palin in 2008, since by your logic it would have been sexist not to support Palin as the potential first ever female VP. I also assume you will vote for Ivanka in 2024 against Joe Biden. Because if you don't, it's only because you're afraid of strong women.

I personally doubt it. She's been one of the most "divisive" (a nice way to say "hated") figures in US politics since the 90s. In 2008 she lost the nominaiton to Obama, who was more or less a nobody at the time. In 2016, the DNC rigged the primary so that literally nobody ran against her. She...

They indeed have a kamikaze streak, but it's not from the Bernie-AOC, wing, it's from their leadership who just reappointed Nancy Pelosi as speaker for another two years. She has the second worst approval rating in the entire US government, worse than even Trump, and second only to Mitch.

That's the typical Hillary-MSNBC Russiagater narrative, for which there is no proof. Most polls from as late as April had Bernie beating Trump by an average of around +4. Biden won by +3.8. So whether you like the guy or not, he definitely was "electable," according to the math. (Source...

The logic of the MSNBC establishment liberals is that it's Bernie's fault that Hillary lost in 2016, and Bernie's fault Biden didn't win by a greater margin in 2020. It's Bernie's fault the Miami Cubans didn't change sides, yadda yadda yadda.

There's one thing you're missing. Even hypothetically, if this make-believe fraud took place, it would mean that it happened under Trump's watch, and the result of his not taking measures to prevent such an occurrence when it was well within his power to allocate people and resources to that end...

The few of us who were actually paying attention during the Obama years (that is, looking at policy and not indulging stupid conspiracy theories), will not be deluded, since for the most part that administration was only marginally better than GWB in most things. And a lot of the dead wood from...

Unintended consequences? https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2020/11/16/dollar-may-drop-20-in-2021-on-covid-vaccines-citigroup-warns

They are right, though. Even the Financial Times criticized the loan, which was the biggest in IMF history and had little chance of ever being repaid even if Macri had been reelected. The only reason he got the loan in the first place is because he called Trump (with whom his family has long...

I almost see your point, but "facts" don't go one way or the other. For instance, I could say the Yankees or the Astros suck, and fans of those teams could say that the Dodgers suck. But those are perspectives, not facts. It's a fact that the Dodgers won the World Series in 2020. There isn't a...

I wonder if there's a correlation with the very high rate of smoking here (especially among older people) which is the highest on the continent, and this is a respiratory disease after all. https://academic.oup.com/ntr/article/22/9/1653/5835834

Argentina also left around 30,000 land mines that only finally got cleaned up the other day.

Once again, what does that have to do with baseball?
