Africa is primed to become a rare earth resource proxy conflict battlefield isn't it.

On Romeaboo podcasts my favorites are Costs of Glory, who talks about Republican Rome:

And Maiorianus, who is the foremost expert and fan of Late Antiquity I've seen outside academics like Peter Brown and Avril Cameron:

did not, in fact, say what you've ascribed to me.

You did.

The "smart" company (somewhat ironic - I mean companies looking for efficiencies) would re-size jobs like yours so that you don't have time to do that - you'd be doing other things while x thing is running. In my world, we're not backfilling positions - when someone leaves or is terminated, the remaining employees just have to take on more.

"The company (you work for) if it was smart (partly serious, somewhat ironic) and looking to increase efficiency (which means the company you work for hasn't maximized efficiency) would re-size (fire you SpergioLeonne or one of your coworkers) your job and others like it so that you SpergioLeonne don't have time do that (waste time doing inefficient things).
- you SpergioLeonne would be doing other work (instead of fucking around posting on KiwiFarms). In my world (unlike yours), we (the company I work for, which is obviously more efficiency minded than yours) are not backfilling positions (the efficient thing to do).
- when someone leaves or is terminated (something efficient companies do), the remaining employees (like me, and not like you) just have to take on more work (because we don't have the luxury of working at inefficient workplaces like yours, and we take on extra work instead of fucking around)."

Your "apology" amounted to saying the insults would be diserved if it was an IT job. And denying you said anything insulting; the equivalent to saying "shut up faggot, I didn't insult you".

The reason SpergioLeonne thought you worked a soft job like HR is because saying what you said would get you in a fist fight if said in person, while refusing to back down like you did.

But how does this relate to Chris chan?

For a guy with Spergio in his name, they should have considered that the person they were talking to had another reason for behaving that way. After all:

The Jew did not in the least remember the day before, he continued to talk in the same old strain as if nothing had happened, and if indignantly confronted, he pretended to be astonished and could not remember anything except that his assertions
had already been proved true the day before.

Often I was stunned. One did not know what to admire more: their glibness of
tongue or their skill in lying.

I gradually began to hate them.

Why do people let their facial hair grow like that? It's fucking disgusting.

"Back in my day", being clean-shaven and with no visible tattoos was the norm for professionalism. How'd that change in Current Year?

This is some mighty pearl clutching. Imagine seeing a dude with a tattoo of Ethan Ralph pushing corn up his ass while crying on his chest.

You know that nigga would be the coolest dude alive.

ESPN host Stephen Smith really truly is considering a presidential campaign. He says people asking him to run is an indictment of the Democratic Party. 2028 feels like a hundred years away in politics so we'll see what happens with him.

This has been foreseeable ever since he started positioning himself as a "sane" liberal who "understands why Trump won."
A few of the smarter Dems have finally learned that socialist bullshit and appealing to troons is a losing strategy, so they're trying to set the groundwork as flag bearer.
Why that dipshit Cory Booker seems to think he'll ever be nominee is beyond me though.

World war 3 could break out and Chris-Chan will somehow play a role in the conflict starting.

He's been saying that kinda rhetoric for quite awhile now, even went on the view and talked about it last year iirc.

Almost doesn't look like Trump lol

Redditor "Trump is using body doubles" schizoposting is kinda overdue, now that you mention it..

 

[Hojicha]

That movie almost makes you sympathetic with the Chinese.

But it also doesn’t get super deep into all the aspects.. like, with the belt and road stuff, China would make these deals where they’d agree to buy x from y country and just completely reneged, they did tofu dreg shit that just fell apart, they’d book out an entire hotel specifically to prevent any Africans from sleeping in the same building as the Chinese.. but mostly I think you were dealing with two cultures who over promise and under deliver, so of course nobody would be happy with the outcome.

For the African countries, they’d realize they got Chinese quality infrastructure they’d be paying off longer after it was gone, and the Chinese people realized they weren’t actually going to get paid back, lol.

Another fan of the China show I hope?

Lmao, he looks like they pulled him out of a case of lightbulbs fresh from Somalia. He didn't get the memo that you can't win on "Vote for me because I'm black" anymore.

Seeing Stephen Smith screaming at his opponents in a debate like they're Max Kellerman would be hilarious, ngl...

 

[H A G]

Stephen A. Smith is well known for having lots of retarded sports takes just to get eyes on his show, and he also talks very slowly about anything that isn't sports, which indicates a lack of passion or talent for politics. Political debates aren't chimping out at another brotha over who the GOAT is like he's used to on ESPN, unless you're Trump which I don't see him pulling off.

I really don’t understand the Stephen Smith thing. To me, he was always just the black guy who looked like a leprechaun while inserting politics into ESPN. He’s just a flash in the pan who is shooting his shot way too early. There are real contenders like Shapiro, Whitmer, and Newsome out there. They know the time to gain momentum as a candidate is not for another couple of years.

Best comparison would be Keith Olberman. Sports guy who realizes he can be a politics troll too, but is in danger of beginning to self-fart-sniff and take himself seriously.

Another one.

 

[Übertroon]

Another one.

Well he's consistent

Also the physiognomy of a spiteful weak man
