Gonna change your question to "dog", as that's what I have

  1. I would choose basically any other life over my worst enemy's. In a choice between them and no one, I'd save no one. I feel you don't understand how emnity works.
  2. Better question, dog,
  3. because he's a member of my family that I'm responsible for. As annoying as his theivery is and as bad as his farts are, he's my friend. Would you choose a stranger over one of your friends?

BBC Radio 6 Music has a lot of obscure stuff, especially the DJs like Iggy Pop and Craig Charles.

Edit: also, go to a local open mic night, find someone whose music you like, and make friends with them. They'll have loads of obscure recommendations for you.

I should point out on the energy front that while they're building more fossil fuel plants, they're decommissioning older, less efficient ones, and building nuclear reactors to take over long term. Coal plants only take a few years to build compared to nuclear plants 20+, so there isn't actually much better they can do while meeting their (and as you point out, the west's) energy needs.

Don't be ridiculous, they've shot a bunch of men - escaped hostages, their own troops, and, like, probably at least 1 Hamas through sheer probability.

Sam wasn't any better at resisting the ring than the other hobbits. There's a reason Frodo carried the ring the whole way, not Sam.

Hobbits' natural lack of ambition protects them from the effects of the ring. All of the hobbits had that power.

Anyone can swear an oath to a divine being, it doesn't make you a paladin. You have to swear an oath so hard you get superpowers to be a paladin.

Zephyreks is being sarcastic by highlighting the US's doublespeak that they employ to wage war without declaring war.

God, you're such a big dumb idiot of a lib. That's the definition of a democratic socialist, not a social democrat - you can tell by the way one of the groups are call socialists and the others are called democrats. Not only did you mix up your definitions, but you never actually managed to define democratic socialist - do you really know what the difference is if you can't even remember to talk about one of them? The answer, scrolling down your post history to where you called yourself a socdem, is no, you think they're the exact same thing, because you don't even have a surface level understanding of leftism. It only takes 5 minutes in leftist spaces to discover that anarchists, socialists, and communists of all flavour hate socdems for exactly your "no really, somehow we'll manage to vote socialism in this time" attitude, but you've never spent a single minute in them, because you're not a leftist.

My version of leftism is called Marxism and is based in historical reality and current material conditions. Your version is fantastical utopianism that's convinced the elite are just going to give up the reigns any day now.

No, but this is a common experience across settings. I've seen people mistake addresses, interview dates, job descriptions, meeting purposes, operating instructions, basic signage - basically everything, told or read. Unless you're making regular, personal contact beforehand to make sure everyone's on the same page you can't really avoid it.

You don't know the difference between a demsoc and a socdem. You're not any kind of socialist, just a lib who likes the idea of being seen as leftist.
