Thanks for that! I wonder what other words could be substituted in

Pretty much, I mean North Korean troops were going by ship to Vladivostok, so why not just overland rail to Vladivostok then ship to NK?

Seems much easier than sending it around the world through potentially hostile waters

Why would they go the long way round?

Well no. I mean can you imagine how much the republicans would hate that as a state? They would never get a vote there. It would also embarrass the fuck out of the Texas secessionist movement

Sure, but they are also banning after hours school teaching Tibetan

In addition to what deft is saying in another comment here is the HRW openly stating Israel is committing “crimes against humanity” and “apartheid.”

Getting food delivered is handy when I’m looking after my kids by myself, but not something I’m in the habit of using, probably use it once per year

Have you tried offering them a massage?

Bogan good or bogan bad?

Trump would happily throw us all at killbots before that happened

Why is the right wing celebrating this election, even with one nation scoring a PB, it comes at the expense of the left wing parties consolidating more power

You know what’s easier? Doing fucking nothing, which is what we’d preferred you’d have done

Donny no friends

I’ve had a theory that Trump has never had a real friend. Like ever.

Funnily enough, neither the global times or cgtn talk about what the law actually does

Yeah, he isn’t paying it and if he is, he can’t afford it

This is a tax on the poor

Yeah, but in the civilised world these people are facing consequences, not enough, but a long way ahead of anything the US can muster
