Like I said, it’s about viewership, and the UK brings very little of that compared to the US, Russia, and China.
If you really cared to see the best, you’d know who Simone Biles is. Everyone tunes in to see their guys win.

The competition between USA, Russia, and China is what gets people to tune in, really. With anyone of those countries not participating, viewership tanks, is my guess.
There’s also the whole thing about eschewing politics. Traditionally wars were paused for the Olympics, but I’m pretty sure that’s irrelevant today, especially when the US led a boycott of the Moscow Olympics in 1980 and then Russia boycotted the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984. It’s really about viewership.
Oh and the IOC is notoriously corrupt. If Russia pays to participate, the IOC will find every which way to let them, no matter how badly they cheat and genocide, same with the US and China.
Donating to just about any charity is a noble cause! I’d also suggest establishing scholarships with educational organizations you like and, depending on the size of your estate, consider endowments that ensure continued support to those organizations.
My cat has to sniff the can of cat food after I dump it out in her bowl so she can decide if it’s worth the 4 steps it’ll take to get to the bowl. She’s a cat, she can smell the food in her bowl from less than a foot away. But if she doesn’t get to sniff the can, it might as well be poison for all she knows.
For real; what the hell?
Well, the US gave Ukraine about $400million in aid three days ago, probably planning to send more soon. That’s how you know what they really think.
That’s just if it’s unlocked with your thumbprint, since, if you’re being arrested the cops get your thumbprint anyway, but if it’s a password or phrase, you have the right to remain silent, correct?
This is the lord’s work made real right here. Thanking you so much from Texas.

Working out and exercising will help boost your seratonin and dopamine levels AND make you too tired to ruminate much at bed time.
It’s pretty clear Erdogan knew that the deal would not be renewed when he sent those Azovstal fighters back to Ukraine.
I’m hosting Thanksgiving this year. I’m so psyched to show all the old crones in the families how to do a proper holiday. I have so many fucking garlands in my Amazon shopping cart. Need another paycheck or two before I can pull the trigger.
I use it around my hairline before I color my hair so as not to stain my skin.
Russia’s mined the fuck out of the whole east and south of the country. Not just land mines, but little petal mines and crap all over the place. UXO/mine disposal is already going to take decades. Western Europe still explodes a handful of people with UXO leftover from WW1 and 2, but it was still worth supporting them with weapons to win those wars.
Ukraine likely intends to crack open the cluster bombs and use the 80 or so individual munitions inside for dropping from drones. These weapons are basically an 80-for-1 deal the US has no use for, and the west can’t produce mutions fast enough to give or sell to Ukraine.
Over/under on Prigozhin already being dead?
Preach. Tell your boss I said everybody needs to be in bed by 11. I’ll write you a note. 👵
It is not. If everybody would just go to damn bed, maybe it would be quiet out. 👵
Get in bed by 11. I don’t care what you do once you’re in there. 👵
Get blackout curtains. 👵
Traffic Jam.
It’s got a bunch of different berries and rhubarb sometimes. Slovacacek’s on I35 outside Waco makes the best.
