  • You miss the point. It’s the steady support of Ukraine that would cause Russia to turn back one way or another. Yes, I’d prefer we support Ukraine more and allow them to take back their land. But the risk with that is that Russia (somewhat legitimately) then could fear Ukraine would keep going. And so they could use that as an excuse to escalate (general mobilization, tactical nukes). Conversly, letting Russia win only would encourage their expansionism further and we’d have to fight the same fight elsewhere. So we support Ukraine until Russia realizes their offensive gets them nowhere - they are just hurting themselves. This is starting to happen now, but it’s a long process. Our problem now is that the U.S. has been wishy washy and making it sound like they might stop supporting Ukraine and letting Russia take more land for good. So of course Putin will grasp for that outcome and keep things going with that chance on the table. It’s probably the only way he gets out of this without getting defenestrated. If trump and the gop hadn’t been such idiots, and just held the line, Russians would see no possibly advantageous end game and putin would probably be in exile or hung by his balls in red square by now. I think we’ll get there eventually, but it will just take longer with the orange moron in play.







  • Only a small amount of the powder gets removed by brushing. It mostly functions by absorbing the grease and staying on the hair. And adding perfume. Which works, so it’s great and all. Proof that it doesn’t take all the grease away is that you can’t just keep applying dry shampoo, eventually it gets really nasty.
    I don’t understand the ablist part. I’ve used the stuff on my daughters occasionally just because typical chaos mornings made it really useful. But I had to explain to them how they still needed to wash their hair regularly. Same would go for someone who has difficulty washing their hair for reasons other than running out of time.
    Use whatever tools work for you. But the marketing of the product is quite misleading - but effective as can be seen by people thinking it actually removes a significant amount of grease from the hair.
