  • Yeah kaliningrad oblast came like as a surprise to me as well some years back. Like what the fuck is a piece of Russia doing there?!

    Estonia is a EU and NATO country. It’s not part of NORDEFCO but we still have exercised with them extensively I believe especially after joining NATO.

    Finland is the backbone of the Nordic defense.

    And that’s my favourite role. In the army we won the rope-pulling contest with me as anchor. The other teams wore fucking boots while we had sneakers on (because dress code says no boots with exercise gear) so they broke military dress code and accused us of cheating.

    I know I wasn’t the strongest member of our group (we had one EU judo champion who could toss a 10-20kg exercise ball to the ceiling of a sports hall like 10m high), but I was the most unyielding one with the most spirit and anger and that’s infectious.

    I like to think I channeled the spirit of Óðinn:

    As mentioned above, Odin’s name can be translated as “Master of Ecstasy.” His Old Norse name, Óðinn, is formed from two parts: first, the noun óðr, “ecstasy, fury, inspiration,” and the suffix -inn, the masculine definite article, which, when added to the end of another word like this, means something like “the master of” or “a perfect example of.” The eleventh-century historian Adam of Bremen confirms this when he translates “Odin” as “The Furious.”[1] Óðr can take countless different forms. As one saga describes Odin, “when he sat with his friends, he gladdened the spirits of all of them, but when he was at war, his demeanor was terrifyingly grim.”

    (as a side note odin was way gayer than ppl think and slightly genderfluid and I respect all lgtb and im not a racist, it’s just something you have to mention when talking about norse myths)

    And thats wholly tangential but it’s what I bring to the table… Let Vanja fucking try opening up another front.

  • No but I sure you’ll find people in the US who’ve just had a regular job at McD’s manager for a few years with practically zero free days and usually 10-12 hour days.

    So he’ll be a master in his “craft” pretty quick. Might still be in their 20’s though, and a Karen pulls up and thinks they know better because “they’re just a kid”. Ugh, would be so annoying.

    I started driving a taxi about two years before I legally should have (I had the training but technically no permit) as I drove my dad’s taxi.

    So by the time I was like 24-25, I had clocked more than 10k hours. And people 10+ years older who didn’t even drive as a profession would talk down to me and question the most basic things. It was alway nice showing them how wrong they were. Or some times just pretending to be that naive for idk, please the customer or smth.

    Still my point is 10k hours isn’t as much as one would think but obviously for a musical instrument or smth it’d kinda lot.




  • You’ve done that several times. You said that you consider Russia right to invade Ukraine, because “Ukraine is full of nazis and we’re freeing them.” Why do you go online and tell people lies like that? Like you constantly mock Ukraine and Zelensky and make Putin defending posts and say you love your cousins in the front line and hope luck for the one out of a dozen who’s still alive.

    Remember when you said that you’re kinda afraid you’re gonna get called up, but told me conscription won’t affect you for a few years yet? Right in the post where you capslocked that "Russia is right to invade Ukraine and do all these warcrimes. You called them ‘righteous punishments for the Ukrainian Nazis’.

    Fucking disgusting, not condemning Putler for his crime against humanity. You’re defending the forceful relocation of children.
