One of the main issues I have had on here when I was sign out was though a reset password option was available it didn't work. Nothing was sending to my inbox. Password couldn't be reset automatically or manually. Had to create a new account. That can be discouraging to some folks. |

Zelensky was on the right track when he wanted to end the war from the outset but was advised by Boris Johnson and other warmongers not to. Just so that the West would fight Russia, using Ukraine as it's proxy while dangling a NATO entry carrot in from of Zelensky.
At the end of the day, he gamble big and lost. |

Back home, decades ago a former PM lay off many government workers and with a 8% cut across the board ignited fury among the unions, the Opposition and the country. Many marches and protests later, the unemployment rate skyrocketed. Years later after the dust has settled down, it was noted that the PM did what was needed to save the economy with its ballooning debt. He also knew he was committing political suicide but he put the country first to save it from crashing.
I see what Trump is doing in the same light. Saving an economy that is in dire straits with a declining dollar and a ballooning 35+T debt by performing open heart surgery. Painful but needed. Successive governments and presidents just prefer to sweep the nagging economic issues under the rug and passing on the responsibility to the next administration while just printing their way out. Granted the layoffs are coming at a head spinning turn and DOGE may need to slow down a bit but time is short. Trump is avoiding an economic cash or alternatively conducting a controlled crash where the government is in control and not the financial sector. Either way there will be a crash. We already know he was going to trim the fat. Trump has nothing to lose. He has no one to please. He is old school who wants to place America on the world map again as a great nation and doing what needs to be done to get the job done. Most of the lay off workers are probationary. Less than 2 years on the job. Those are always the first to go. Secondly, none of the articles mentioned any aviation workers. Were there mass layoffs in that department? Thirdly, there is no Trump/Musk administration. There is a Trump/Vance administration. Musk is a contractor overseeing a department named DOGE to audit government departments, receiving his directives from Trump, relating his instructions to his research team and reporting his findings to his boss. How can the public be against what they are doing when Trump has a high approval rating? The efficiency is one of the issues the general public voted for. The Democrats do not represent the public but a section of the public. |

"A lot was also completely trashed by the Red Khmer in the 70s?!!!
And after their regime fell many poor Cambodians and/or former Red Khmer child soldiers knicked what remained to sell it. They didn't give a rip about the works as they often just broke them off their stands, leaving carved feet and hands etc. behind. I was almost in tears when I saw that, the destruction and disrespect of it all". ***I don't think they had much of a choice. It's called survival. "We arrogant Caucasians tend(ed) to think of such cultures as primitive but this is no way primitive"! ***Modern structures are nothing compared to Old World architecture. I admired those structures for their beauty, aesthetics, life, craftsmanship and of course being long lasting. Today architecture is just plain ugly, lifeless, cold and hard and of course crumbling after 50 years if so long. Yet modern man keep boasting how smart and wise they are! "This was Cambodia but such practises have occurred worldwide. Greed & money & ego". ***Unfortunately... |

Honestly, I am not able to grasp “forever”. It’s much easier for me to say I’d like to live ...longer. Let’s say aging slows down and we are able to live to say 200, I’d go for that. While the world holds much to explore, it’s really my kids and grandbabies that bring me the most joy and to share the world a little longer with them would be utopia for me. From a Christian perspective, there will be a time in the future refer to as the Millennium where humans beings will have longevity, living for a couple hundred years. Life under 100 years will be consider a curse. Eternity follows when the nations are judge and the world is cleansed. |

The only thing that scares me more than death is the thought of eternal life. That idea totally terrifies me. Everything eventually dies, not even the stars are eternal. Our own sun will eventually burn out, so any eternal humans will have to find another planet orbiting another star, until that star either burns out, or explodes in a supernova. And then, we will have to find another place to go, moving from planet to planet, galaxy to galaxy over billions of years, until there's nowhere left. According to the second law of thermodynamics, which is the foundation of modern physics, disorder (entropy) increases with time. That means the universe is expanding, getting colder, and it will eventually be a cold dead void, with no stars providing heat and light. The expanding universe is not a theory, it has been confirmed beyond any doubt by astronomical observations of the red shift and measurement of the cosmic microwave background. And, if we do manage to hang around for the final act, then what the hell are we going to do with nowhere left to go? We are eventually going to die anyway, so why prolong the inevitable. The cycle of life and death is what powers evolution, if we interfere with that, then the human race will stop evolving and stagnate. My personal belief is that the human mind and body are incapable of going on indefinitely, even if it turns out to be possible. And, supernatural ideas about us having an immortal soul are just speculation in my opinion. I'm not signing up for anybody's idea about a life after death that doesn't include a physical living body, and no physical living body can outlive the universe. As far as I'm concerned, what we do with the time we have on earth, is much more important than how much time we have. Death is not to be feared, death is what makes life precious. Everything connected to eternity is eternal. So eternal beings do not have wait for the final act, nor for the universe or planets to dwindle or die or burn out with nowhere to go. Eternal humans cannot live in a natural world. They will live in an eternal world, where life and the Cosmo will be eternal,with no ending. A life without rot, decay, destruction, chaos, sorrow and death. It can be difficult to grasp such a concept with our finite minds but with an Infinite Eternal Creator all things are possible. |

"Nation Clash" is a global competition where countries resolve differences through friendly contests instead of conflict. Each nation fields a team based on its population size—larger countries have more players (e.g., Russia gets 20, while smaller nations like Iceland get 5)—to compete in challenges ranging from physical feats like relay races to strategic war games like capture-the-flag or war tag. The losing team must serve the winners for a year in symbolic acts of humility, such as hosting festivals to celebrate the victor’s culture or assisting in charitable projects. This fun, fair competition promotes global unity, showcases cultural diversity, and replaces conflict with camaraderie. Nice ![]() |

"The Democrats' problem is communication. You have whole news networks dedicated to spewing the Republican talking points and mindlessly praising Dear Leader Trump, and while some Democrats say they need a Democratic Fox News equivalent, they really just need to figure out how to get their message to the people, and maybe find better messengers."
They can start by doing good instead of just looking good. |

Woke" isn't about destroying the country. It's simply being aware of injustice,
"Woke" isn't just about injustice. Its negative connotation refers to any philosophy, doctrine, rhetoric, talk or policy that is negative, unjust, destructive, immoral and evil in its nature. |

So much for those horrible tariffs costing us more or not making our border more safe.. Breaking news: Mexico and Canada has agreed to send 10,000 military to stop the drugs and illegals from crossing the borders. Don’t underestimate Trump and his ability to negotiate, something Biden and the dems are clueless at. Now you can eat crow…
Neat. The Biden Administration got Mexico to post 10,000 troops on the border back in 2021. And Canada agreed to spend $1,3 billion on border security back in December, for Biden. So Trump stopped his tariffs for something they were doing, already. www.cnn.com/2025/02/04/politics/trump-blinks-trade-war-analysis/index.html Having a plan and not enforcing the plan is not the same. Mexico got complacent and Trump wanted to make sure Canada did its part by threatening them with tariffs. Similar with NATO members dropping short of their pledge of 2% of their GDP to spend on defence and Trump stern talk galvanised them into action. Similar to Biden May Israel/Hamas peace deal that Blinken couldn't or wouldn't enforced and a no nonsense envoy from Trump administration got the said parties to agree and signed. |
