It is, however you’d think such a publicized event would have stressed the importance of clean water to anyone that heard about it. Even the people who are racist should understand why they should want their water to be clean.

There will never be anything that convinces someone like you to take action.

The source is their fingers when they typed in the message. Silly goose.

To be fair, these are Apple users we’re talking about. They uhh… kind of epitomize rampant American consumerism.

Why the world should care

In our view, all things being equal, it’s unlikely that the economy will implode soon, forcing Russia to scale back its military campaign in Ukraine; or that deposits will be frozen. That doesn’t mean, however, that nothing will ever happen to deposits, nor that the banking sector will always be trouble-free. However, there are far bigger threats to the Russian economy at the moment: for example, a lack of transparent decision-making, little independent expertise, and the classification of much economic data all undermines trust in the authorities. This is more likely to, eventually, lead to some sort of hard-to-predict, man made crisis.

This is the article written by Alexander Kolyandr and Alexandra Prokopenko. https://en.thebell.io/no-russia-is-not-on-the-verge-of-a-banking-crisis/

So, they dispute the idea that there will be a credit/ banking crisis. They do not dispute that the Russian economy is in bad shape.

Figures of the week

Inflation in Russia might be starting to slow. Between January 1 and January 13, prices went up 0.67%, which suggests annual inflation of 9.9% (it was 9.5% last year). However, January’s figures reflect one-off boosts from increased sales of alcohol and tobacco, a further rise in the recycling fee for cars, higher public transport fares and a weakening ruble. Together with a fall in consumer demand and an increase in consumer borrowing, this could mean inflation will peak in the first half of the year. In the absence of external shocks (such as tighter sanctions) this could pave the way for lower interest rates.

So, no, they do not agree that sanctions would not work. In fact, they imply here that an external shock like tighter sanctions would likely cause inflation to continue rising.

What would be most likely to cause a man made crisis if not the value of the rouble decreasing further + a continued bloody war?

Well, I ran this through several media bias checkers - it came back as unbiased. Site leans a little left, but that’s about it.

So tell me again, what are you trying to say? Because if your answer is more or less ‘it’s propaganda’ - I’m not sure I should entertain this topic any further.

Nah he’s just planting trees for future generations to sit under.

Can’t have Barron end up anywhere other than King, right?

You can dislike what they’re saying, that doesn’t mean it isn’t true.

Gods can bleed.

That’s weird considering every single thing I’ve read about Russia’s economy recently has been that it’s going to collapse soon.

Edit: not a fascist

Name a single language that Trump speaks well.

Idk, the game is great and I distinctly remember people crying about stuff like this with DD2.

I’ll tell you what I said then. I was not tempted to buy any MTX in MH Wilds until I started reading the comments of people crying about it.

This is a basic fucking character creator we’re talking about. If you’re so spastic that you need to change your characters model every day, we have very different reasons for playing video games.

Let me put it this way. This is Monster Hunter. Why the fuck does your character looking a certain way mean so much to you? If it does mean so much, make a new character - the game hasn’t even been out for 3 days. These problems are literally non-issues.

Trump throats Putin, to even remotely suggest that this would end positively for Zelensky might as well prove that you’re a shill or bot.

Go back to Reddit.

Ahh, abstract thinking. That’s your problem, the people who vote Conservative… well they can’t. Manage to think abstractly, that is. Anything beyond blue = boy and pink = girl is just too much for their tiny little brains to wrap around.

There is a third option

Edit: The game is gorgeous for me, I’m not surprised older builds are struggling. I didn’t mean to be a dick about it.

I kinda want more articles about what people are saying. Like I get that Trump did X and we aught to know about it - but what about the people on Truth Social? Is it just a powerful echo chamber or?

Edit: yes, I say this because I feel like vomiting when I think of visiting that place.

Well, according to Trump, the way they did it isn’t ‘the right way’ either. Otherwise they wouldn’t be trying to block birthright citizenship.

But hey, expecting a Conservative to wrap their head around an abstract concept is… well, let’s just say these are people who need pictures.

Makes it easier for someone to convince you that they know what’s best for you.

I’m already learning!
