Late Night with the Devil.

 

Thisnpremiered on Shudder  was looking forward to watching this as I'd seen some decent reviews and the premise was interesting enough.

 

It was crap, not in the least bit scary, not sure whether they played for scares, if they did they were way off.

 

Yeah - was very disappointing. B Movie stuff.

It's been obvious that bill would pass weeks ago. It's the fact they rolled it in with even more support for Israel that's reprehensible. Not that it concerned many on this thread. Not a single eyebrow raised.

 

That's because it's the Russia vs Ukraine thread, not the Russia vs Israel thread. Just like there was no discussion of the Taiwan aid here.

As regards the Israel thread, the reason I stay away from it is because it's largely just a twitter feed - there are much better threads on the subject elsewhere.

Shills out in force tonight in response to the bill being passed.

The only viable solution is one state with equal rights to all. 

But that's my point; Extremists on both sides don't want that to happen.

Or better yet no bombing from anyone.

Therein lies the problem; Extremists on both sides will ensure this continues and killing each other just fuels the support. One side wants to remove Palestinians from the Gaza Strip and West Bank and Jerusalem. The other side wants to remove Israeli's from the map.

I'm pessimistic - I don't see there ever being a compromise that satisfies both camps, not even a two-state solution. Ultimately I fear one side will use nukes to remove the other.

I'd have Diaz, Gakpo, and Jones off for Jota, Nunez, and Elliot.

Nunez and Jota please

Is Allison trying to pad our possession stats?

It's interesting isn't it. Looks like he is fitting into the back line to support them when Trent moves forward. And both full backs are playing far more forward than usual.

That 99% shot down claim is blatantly bullshit as well. You're looking at hundreds of missiles and rockets in waves to confuse defence systems and overwhelm them. Seems a fair few hit air bases and other military targets.

I dunno. Iron dome is pretty good, and the Israeli's had days to get prepared.

The far right supremacy nutjobs are only concerned if those being squatting have blue eyes and blond hair. Just look at the Ukrainian thread  

What on earth are you going on about you weirdo? Supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression does not make you right wing. Sometimes you are a proper cunt.

All I remember from Fallout is wandering around in a cave shooting at rats until I got bored.

 

They must have based the TV show, which I enjoyed quite a bit, on later iterations of the game.

 

It's based on Fallout 4, which is a very good game.

Russia is going to win jack shit. Unfortunately neither are Ukraine. Its time to face facts and stop more innocents losing their lives. 

Russia will win by pausing the war to considate its gains in eastern Ukraine and rebuild its armed forces. Then in 3 to 5 years time Putin will attempt to grab some more land in Ukraine and more innocents will die.

If peace includes Ukraine joining NATO then fine - I suspect Ukraine would accept that at this point - but the Russians won't allow that because their intention is to annex the entire country.

The fact you need to face is Putin wants to end Ukraine's existance and will kill a lot of innocents to achieve it.

I've read it and it was indeed a struggle. If you are intent on reading it then brew a lot of coffee.

This is worth a read if grammar is your thing:

One that my inner nerd loves cause they are just a bit quirky and most people can't find them on a keyboard: — (em dash), – (en dash), - (hyphen)

Russia should have no trouble winning then with its booming economy and superior armed forces.

This is thread about grammar. Things that annoy you or more positively things that you love. For example, people who confuse I.e with e.g. That sort of thing. Personally I love a semi colon, makes my day if I get a chance to use one. Anyway I’ll probably be the owner poster but I’ll have an outlet. 

And you had the perfect chance right there.

That scene was great, but overall I thought Civil War was ok. I wouldn't watch it again - 7/10.

Is that right? I will in that case, thanks Elite.

Indeed you are - patch is out April 25th: https://www.tomsguide.com/gaming/fallout-4s-major-next-gen-update-adds-60-fps-support-and-a-ton-of-new-content-and-it-finally-has-a-release-date

It's inspired me to reinstall the game.

Do you think they would use them?

Absolutely. They don't give a fuck.

I'm sure there is a reason why we are rushing to the 'defence' of a country,which only, just over a week ago,murdered British aid workers?

Cause they've got over 200 nuclear warheads and we don't want them to use them?

That isn't the reason though cause that might just be sensible. We do it because Britain is committed to supporting Israel, however homicidal they might become, and we always will while there is a right wing government in this country - and Israel knows it.

Iran is readying its missiles for a strike on Israel. This thread might finally be right.

I do think they will continue to get military aid from the US.

I'm pessimistic about this. The Republican party will block any attempts and Trump seems to be in Putin's pocket. Only way US aid resumes is if Biden miraculously gets a majority in both houses.

Mcmanaman can go fuck himself as well. Embarrassing that a former player of ours always sounds so happy whenever we're losing.

He always roots for the opposition.
