    I mean, you have probably only used 1/3 of their body in "that" way, so......

    Mating usually occurs in the water with the help of some submerged object, like a piece of wood or large rock. After mating, the two will hang out together for about an hour (during which more mating may occur), and then the male will leave to find a new mate.

    We have the same terrible humor, I was trying to think of a somewhat tasteful way of making the same joke!

    By that method of counting, I will claim 2/3 (or is that 2/9 now?)

    These assassins were Chechens and Ukraine has told the Washington Post that the Russian FSB (successor to KGB) tipped them off because they are not in favor of what Putler is doing. btw, even though they took these guys by surprise, there were no survivors, no wounded. Also some 70 Russians who tried to infiltrate Kyiv in plain clothes? Also every one of them killed, again no wounded or prisoners. And now Ukraine has announced that if you are a Russian artillery operator, shelling their cities, you will also not be taken prisoner. I understand their position.

    Yeh, we probably should have done more when soviet union broke up.

    When you buy something it becomes your property to dispose of as you choose. Shouldn't that also apply to politicians? Just asking a question. For a friend.

    On a more serious note, Putin is the CIC of the Russian military and in war officers are just as much valid targets as the grunts. If this guy offered a reward to any Ukrainian solidier who destroyed a Russian tank would you be equally uncomfortable?

    Fox "News" commentator Pete Hegseth said what is happening in Ukraine "pales in comparison" to "wokeness" and gas prices.
    Because your coworker using gender neutral pronouns and paying $1 more for gas is so much worse than having your country invaded and bombed.
    White male privilege thinking it is persecuted by the slightest discomfort.

    Not certain about the white male privilege aspect, but, at least, when it comes to military stuff, he knows a thing or two because he's seen a thing or two:

    All you need is one to ruin everyone's day. In the same venue, reactors will cause problems. When Chernobyl and Japan's Fukeshima fukushima 1.jpg March 11 disasters happened, the radiation spread was vast.

    Of course, the German Nazi's captured them and tortured them afterwards. Once the SS or Gestapo were involved, protests quickly went astray.
