  • i don't vote, so it means little to me, but i am surprised that there isn't a craven, cynical, power-hungry young dem flunkie who hasn't started banking their bona fides on cutting ties with israel completely as their lane to the presidential nomination, whether they have the intention to follow through or not.

    no "aid to payments" talk. no "two state solution" bullshit. just straight up, the "juice isn't worth the squeeze," "what's in it for me?" cynical self-interest. it's sitting right there and is, when you see how chickenshit left-lib pols like ro khanna are, wide fucking open. maybe the dem apparatchiks lack an ambition for power and are happy bathing in their consulting money, or maybe they know the heart attack gun would be waiting for them, or maybe the unique blend of bright enough to see the path precludes being dumb enough to try. still, i'm a little surprised.

    a follow up to this, use a salt water mix. frozen salt water will hold a cooler temp for a longer time. plus, with a couple of zip ties or a length of small rope, you can affix them to a box fan or oscillating fan to create an "ac" similar to the bucket version posted in this thread (and you don't need any extra equipment or tools).

    just be careful to not cover too much of the fan face so it doesn't restrict airflow to the point of burning out the motor, plug it into a surge protector or gfci plug, and place a towel beneath it to absorb the exterior humidity as the bottles sweat.

    stay safe!

    speculation on a couple of military forums that the apache was tasked with shooting down a shahed but did so within the blast radius of the explosion, so the "great military" may have stepped on a rake with this one. i don't know if i believe it, but that could jibe with the tweet warning us pilots of "their own human error"
