I dunno - when the US was under actual attack on 9/11, it sure seemed like the world gave all kinds of help.  Just as one example when all those airplanes landed in places like Newfoundland or Whitehorse people turned out in droves to house the passengers until they could fly home.

Yes.

When there's forest fires, all provinces that aren't with the same problem send aircrafts to help fight the fires.  When they have massive storms/hurricane that cut the power, Hydro-Quebec sends people to help repair the lines.  I'm pretty sure other provinces do the same.  And I remember Americans sending help in 1998 during the server ice storms too.

The only thing we don't do is help them plan a coup d'état in their own country.

"Oh noes! I was captured by hunky Vikings!" is a common genre in romance/erotica.

I'll take your word for it.  I don't want the mental image of your and your hunky Viking captors.

Whatever you do, don't picture of the Vikings throwing brain into a pen full of animals thinking it's punishment.

Well that explains why it's the first time I've seen her smile

I read somewhere that the Anglo-Saxons deemed the vikings effeminate and vain and they also had a habit of raping the monks as well as the nuns. So kind of the exact opposite of 19th century romantic view of vikings.

Well they clearly think that peace, love, and small kittens will break out if Russia wins. Well Russia won in 2014 and I didn't notice that happening then.

That's meant to be an anti Ukraine Post?

Not sure on the monk rape - I think they had views a bit like the Romans where being a bottom was shameful but raping a guy was kosher? I know a lot of Lokis weirdness comes from his being receptive a fair bit.
But for sure yeah, well known the vikings were dandies.

Are TJ Maxx and Ukraine in cahoots?

The idea is that Ukraine is destroying the economy. By us helping them and I presume the economic disruption caused by them not immediately surrendering.

I guess it makes sense when you consider the mercantalist outlook on economics of the loony right.
Every win must have an equal loss et al.

Even if we followed that crazy train, and Obama was Hitler's grandson...so what?  Why can't we ever get over this medieval idea that if person X is descended from Baddie Y, they are therefore automatically Baddie X.

This loon is trying to backdoor the "Ukraine is Nazi" argument.

I admit the "he was born in Jakarta" bit was new to me (AFAIK he spent some years there as a kid).
