You would say that to Hitler? You're deluded if you think Putin wants peace and can be fairly negotiated with. He wants to win. He only wants surrender. It's a binary choice. You support his goals or the goals of Ukraine and their western supporters.

The title says it all. Either you want Ukraine to win, or you want Russia to win. Yet the disgraced former US president Trump refused to say yes. I appreciate his honesty. For anyone that didn't know where he stands before, they should by now.

Trump Vows to Make Overtime Pay Tax-Free: ‘Finally Catch a Break’
Jingthing replied to Social Media's topic in World News
In that tragic event of Trump coming back to power, I think we will never hear about this empty and impractical promise ever again. -
What gets me is that credible people are correctly saying that the tax situation will be an individual thing and it will be impossible to announce full conclusions that will be correct for everyone's specific financial situation. Then they say to pay for personal advice. But the final rules are not even set and we have no understanding of how any of this will actually be enforced, or not once they are set. So let's say you pay for personal advice now. It's my impression that given how ambiguous this all still is, that if you paid for such personalized advice from five given "experts" now that you would most likely get five different "expert" opinions. I'm sure this is a going to be a bonanza for such "experts" but at least at this stage, this is a completely ridiculous situation. I will be willing to pay for such advice from a well referred "expert" at a later time when the odds are higher that they actually know how things actually are going to be. Now seems wildly premature. I reckon I will probably end up paying more for advice than tax though which is kind of absurd. RANT OVER.

Do you want President Harris to pardon Trump?
Jingthing replied to earlinclaifornia's topic in Political Soapbox
Well he has expressed interest in Venezuela He loves dictators period. Doesn't matter if from the left or right. He could probably build a beachside Margarine Lardo 2.0 there. -

I haven't had "gears" since that one summer back in Provincetown when the coconut oil incident happened. I'm on automatic. The only grinding I do involves coffee beans.

Something to watch for now. He probably realizes there is a good chance he will lose now and not be able to illegally overturn the election as he tried to do before. So if that happens, he would want sympathy from President Harris for pardons. Going forward watch if he starts to personally insult Harris less than before. He can't call her dumb anymore for example.

Interesting. It sounds to me this is all about you being open as an expat. I still have a U.S. credit report based on U.S. residency which I do not have. Address, phone number, credit card with U.S. address. etc. That's what they like. Not saying its fair. I guess the good news is that it usually becomes less important for older people to have good credit scores but of course if you're moving back and hope to rent an apartment, etc. it's a big problem.

Trump Declines Further Debates with Harris as Election Nears
Jingthing replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Because he knows he'd get creamed again. Another debate may be his best chance to win, but he knows he just can't compete with VP Harris in debates. I have mixed feelings about this. If there was another debate perhaps he might have a good night and have a typical more even performance. Given his greatly lowered expectations now, that could be spinned as a big win. On the other hand, it's quite likely he'll change his mind if he sees his polling drop dramatically. -
Anyone that claims Trump won this debate has no credibility the same as anyone who claimed Biden won the last debate. As far as another debate which Harris has proposed Trump will avoid that like the plague.

Who won? As the former RNC chairman said -- she spanked that ass. Iconic historic moments. The handshake. Cats and dogs.

What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2024)
Jingthing replied to Rimmer's topic in Entertainment
I saw a show that mentioned that Spielberg had done one comedy in his career. 1941, about hysteria in California about a Japanese invasion there after Pearl Harbor. Featuring actors from SNL's 1970's golden age. Sure many of the situations were comedic in concept, but after watching the entire movie I realized I hadn't laughed or even chuckled even once. I missed it back than and I guess I'm saying you can miss it now. -

Jingthing replied to Rimmer's topic in Entertainment
Reunion 1989 movie Screenplay by Harold Pinter. Mixed reviews at the time but I thought it was great. The story of an ideal (non sexual) boyhood friendship between the son of a very German Jewish doctor and the son of a top aristocrat during the rise of the Nazis. Predictably because of the era, things fall apart. Reunion (1989) - IMDb
