Last I saw Japan was a little weird still because of the new vassal mechanics. They really need a micro-HRE or something to reflect the sengoku period. Japan tends to break due to patches a lot (at release they uses to be under perma-rebels once the Catholics made contact), don’t know what it is like now, but they’re a good non-European colonization option. Vietnam, proto-Malaysia and Korea are also good.
By the way, I’m an idiot, you want to kill that France-Venice alliance and get Spain out?
1. Find someone to declare on, a minor or easy win if possible, that you can pull France into. Declare that war.
2. Declare war on Venice. Because France is in the other war, they can’t say yes to a call to arms from Venice. Spain can.
3. Crush Venice and Spain. Get enough warscore with Spain to cancel their alliance with the Ottomans.

Because I’m technically a Great Power, if I go on a kebab run, it’d be 3 on 2. So another GP would jump in. And I just know it would be fucking Austria.
Current plan – take 100,000 Mad Poles and 36000 Brandenburg Space Marines and invade Austria. This pulls in Palatinate, so I can make them break Otto-alliance and Great Britain, which will hopefully do the British thing of sitting on the island reading The Sun while the war is in progress. Then I’ll have truces with both and hopefully that means they can’t go into Otto mess (already have truce with Russia).
The tables turn on a 70-year-old homeless man accused of trying to rob a Barre Town couple at gunpoint in their own home.
Police say Kenneth Pecor was able to get inside a home on Little John Road Sunday morning. He allegedly demanded cash and a car while pointing a rifle at two of the residents.
But after a struggle, the homeowner was able to fight back.

Well, it’s looking like the Democrats have shot themselves in the foot, once again. The fake “Russia stole the election” propaganda has backfired. Now the DoJ has a good reason to look at exactly how the Obama administration got that October FISA warrant to bug Trump, why the earlier request was turned down (a rarity for FISA warrants), and how the information was handled. Oh, and how convenient that Obama loosened the rules for handling surveillance information, just before he left office! In a way that makes it much harder to catch leakers.
The cries of “worse than Watergate!” from the expected quarters might actually be true. There are severe penalties for misusing FISA data. I would not be surprised if Obama and company were consulting with their lawyers right now.

But there is no known language where double positives cancel each other out. To which a student sarcastically replied, “Yeah, Right.”
It’s Sunday, bro.
Has anyone thought about how funny it is that “progressive” leftists have spent decades pushing for a government monopoly on firearms and rejecting the idea of citizens taking up arms against a tyrannical government, but now, all of a sudden, they’re squealing that there’s a Holocaust-level threat against gays, blacks, and Muslims from the allegedly tyrannical Trump administration?
Every day since November 8th. They definitely learned from the Boromir school of political science.
Yes, but the humor of it is just a tired (sigh)
You could literally sit one of those leftists down and slowly act out the scenario step by step so that the irony would be crystal-clear to a 5yr old… and they’d just shake their head like YOU don’t understand, because “the second amendment is actually only about White People, duh, and no one like the NRA would ever support actual real-live minority people having guns, i mean educate yourself already.”
The contradictions and absurdities are never-ending. I just saw a photo of an “anti-fascist” protestor burning a sign that said FREE SPEECH while giving it the finger. A week or so ago I saw a tape of a protester chanting “Free speech is hate speech.”
But that monopoly is going to be the ‘right’ people. Trump is the wrong people. And if you don’t believe he’s crazy, he’s talking about cutting some regulations!
… And they are simultaneously complaining about those “right people” (cops) being a bunch of trigger-happy racists.
My life as a zucchini. Conservatives freaking out over violence in video games again or lefties using stealth to brainwash the kiddos? Or a little of both?
Actually it reads more like hyperventilating about the idea that (GASP) animated films might not *actually* be just for kids despite their appearances, and they might actually have adult themes, which has TOTALLY NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE
The gushing reviews from people I despise certainly caused me to lend the pantshitters at least a hearing. The role of stories from Gilgamesh to Sophocles to Beowulf to Disney in shaping the views of the youth shouldn’t be underestimated. How about the critics of Zuchini make their own film? It’s not like Hollywood is revered these days for its moral righteousness.
Someone had better talk to the Japanese.
Well, it’s looking like the Democrats have shot themselves in the foot, once again. The fake “Russia stole the election” propaganda has backfired. Now the DoJ has a good reason to look at exactly how the Obama administration got that October FISA warrant to bug Trump, why the earlier request was turned down (a rarity for FISA warrants), and how the information was handled. Oh, and how convenient that Obama loosened the rules for handling surveillance information, just before he left office! In a way that makes it much harder to catch leakers.
The cries of “worse than Watergate!” from the expected quarters might actually be true. There are severe penalties for misusing FISA data. I would not be surprised if Obama and company were consulting with their lawyers right now.
A position on pizza we can all get behind:

I like Hawaiian style pizza. It has nice mix of salty and sweet. There I said it,
It’s not my first choice, I tend to be more of a pepperoni and peppers kind of guy. But it is still better than a vegetarian or cheese pizza.
I am preparing the Atomic Cat Butthole for you. And anyone else who disses the glory that is the classic Margherita. Pray that SP doesn’t see this- she is far more ruthless and deadly than I.
I may have mentioned earlier in the week that I made some pineapple pork on coconut rice. I see no reason a pizza cant be made in that flavor theme. Just make sure your pork is not italian style sausage, the flavor isnt complementary. Pork and pineapple were made for each other.
But they weren’t made for pizza. One must have standards.
It is perfectly fine to have pineapple pork w/ coconut rice on some sort of breadlike crust.
It is even acceptable to fine some sort of cheese that will enhance and add to the flavors.
But there is no need to call such a creation a ‘pizza’.
Hmm…….pineapple pork and coconut rice on a scallion pancake base…………..
So we get bullets but then have to deal WITH ALL CAPS?!
The Glib giveth, and the Glib taketh away.
Wait… what is this? How did this happen?
Brutals? I thought we were uppity barbarians.
