The David Lynch version was more satisfying.

May a thousands Arrakis sand fleas find a home in your jock.

I’m trying to decide if I would have rather know the story in advance, or have gone in cold (to include not seeing the other movie).

Have a suggestion. Removing the upvote/downvote button should allow for the text of our posts to be more visually appealing. Right now, it shoves the initial part of each post over to the side, and looks ugly. And the upvote/downvote feature is barely used anyways. Thanks!

 

I concur

Upvotes are gay

By the way, is the fall of Afghanistan Trump’s fall?

I don’t know that fault is the right word, but he set in motion the outcome. It followed the plan he negotiated with the Taliban.

The “collapse”. The Pashtun dominate Afghanistan. They are tribal. People work with their tribal elders. The Americans will go home, like the Soviets, British, Moguls and Greeks went home. Back to tribalism. Take off your government uniform, put on a turban. Most Pashtun live in Pakistan. The Pakistani ISI supports the Taliban. Pakistan needs a friendly nation at their back while they confront India. Make friends with the dominant group, make sure that they’re Muslim. Now they can focus on those idol worshipers in New Delhi. How come nobody is giving George W Bush credit? He is the one who tried to nation build in Afghanistan. Biden got handed a mess. Why hasn’t Biden asked the Republicans if they read history books? Nobody has conquered Afghanistan. Every bit of the mess in 2021 goes back to 2001. We tried to do the impossible. Nation build in Afghanistan. We failed.

On point, Gene

and anyone who wants to pursue natural immunity will.

If they would agree not to clog up the hospitals when they get sick, and just quietly die at home, I would totally support this strategy.

and precipitated a humanitarian crisis that would not otherwise have been.

Did what was the end game you envisioned?

Here’s why we were doomed. The AFG was monumentally corrupt. So corrupt that the money we provided to pay their military was siphoned of why their military fought without getting paid. Of course the AFG was not even included in the February 2020 negotiations we held with the Taliban to determine the future of Afghanistan. To repeat, we didn’t even invite the AFG to join in the negotiations to figure out what was going to happen to their country. That’s a pretty big wtf moment.

So when it is time for us to leave, and we are depending on the corrupt AFG to hold things together until we’ve crossed the horizon, guess what’s they did? They shanked us like we did them in Doha. Meanwhile the actual Afghans are screwed.

I hope we hung down Ghani and kill him. Or the Taliban. He deserves to die.

I get it, but it is exhausting. So many opportunities for me to fuck it up and people to be offended by my micro aggression. Sigh.

You have to be a special kind of stupid to pretend this wasn’t utterly predictable.

You have to be a special kind of …something…to think that it was so obvious yet all of the entire government didn’t see it coming. Including the Taliban, who were surprised at how easy it was to roll up the AFG.

If the Taliban themselves knew it was going to go down like this, they’d have done a bunch of different stuff too. Measured the palace for new draperies, etc.

The die was cast when we negotiated our surrender 18 months out, without even including the AFG in our negotiations with the Taliban. At that point, we could trust the Taliban more than the AFG. We at least knew where they stood and what they wanted.

Collapses are like that. Slowly, then suddenly. 2008 financial, Taliban in 2001, Berlin Wall, USSR going away, George Floyd riots, etc.

So Gene, you for or against mandating the vaccine in school?

 

Covid, that is. Not Measles or Diptheria or a bunch that are already mandated.

I was excited to watch it, but didn’t find it compelling. I get the need to not blast somebody, but then it just looks goofy. Like fencing where you are trying to touch somebody on a body part, but not with a cool rapier.

 

They could just have little probes on their gloves and wire suits, and try to make contact and set off a buzzer. Like competition tickling.

 

That Saudi had speed.

Datasets like this is everywhere. Pretty obvious the vaccine works magnificently.

 

That’s Houston in Georgia, by the way. Not Texas.
