If Russia goes on to trample Ukraine and perhaps a few more soon to be former countries as part of this current rampage ….

are they especially when aligned by China (both conveniently highlighted for us by the color RED extremely dangerous and capable of putting us into a scorched earth society highlighted by famine and no power grid? Or China could also do this or they could do it together.

Meanwhile the US government is focused on expanding the whereabouts of the unvaccinated, harassing Trump not through the political (proper) but through the government (improper) process.

Is this reality being overlooked or swept under the carpet because of its scariness and the inability of the US to do anything about it?

Yep, reverting to type. When your boy gets caught RED handed committing treason, deflect to the RED bogeyman (hey, newsflash, the colour of the Repug party is also RED. Coincidence?).

🤣🤣🤣

@jackjjackson

Something else for you to ponder.......perhaps idk.

In the civilised world, we use RED to denote political parties that are to the left of the political spectrum and blue to denote those that are to the right.

You guys seem to be a tad confused.

Or are you?

During your so-called War of Independence, the Brits (ie your ENEMIES) wore RED coats, whereas your lot wore blue. Then, your Repug party chose RED as its colour.

Rather a curious choice don't you think?

Or maybe not.

Maybe they were always the ENEMIES of the American project and were leaving you clues all along.

That attack came from nowhere and makes no sense. Try making an on topic comment. @room101

@jackjjackson The attack? Feeling rather sensitive are we?

Nope, my comments are directly related to and in response to, your rather obvious confusion over the colour RED!

🤣🤣🤣

The topic is China, Russia and red. No confusion. Rather than attempt to distract reality you should be concerned for your personal well being. They are not your friends. @room101

@jackjjackson You mean like distracting from the reality that your boy violated The Espionage Act?

You mean like distracting by having a problem with the colour RED.............the colour of your own damned party and only a few shades away from the colour that your boy likes to paint his skin🤣🤣🤣

You seem to be jumping to conclusions, taking a serious world problem and misstating it to somehow bolster your unwarranted anti GOP campaign. No matter, serious readers laugh you off. @room101

@jackjjackson When you and your ilk become "serious readers" maybe I'll try another approach.

Until then, I'll probably continue to take the piss out of the lot of you🤣🤣🤣

Hate to break it to you. All you’ve done here is appear foolish. How is the weather? What your favorite local food? @room101

room101 · 51-55, M

@jackjjackson The weather here is HOT! We've had an average of 34C (that's approx 93F) every single day since the beginning of June. That's unprecedented even for a Med city like Barcelona.

Re the food, to be honest, it's getting rather tiresome. Unless you go to more rural areas, Spanish cuisine in general lacks variety.....in my view🤷‍♂️

The knock-on affect is that food shops also lack variety. I love food and really enjoy cooking so yeah, it's bugging me a little bit. On the one hand, I'm literally surrounded by grocers shops that have amazingly fresh and great quality produce. On the other hand, they all sell the same stuff!

Bottom line, I don't have a favourite local food🤦‍♂️

jackjjackson · M

What is this same stuff that inundates you? @room101

room101 · 51-55, M

@jackjjackson I'm not really sure how to answer that without sounding like a pedantic moaner.

The quality is superb. Vegetables, fruit, meat, fish all of it. Super fresh, naturally organic (it's just how they farm here) and packed full of real flavour ie no additives to enhance flavour because the produce has been stored and processed to oblivion.

For me, it's not about being inundated with something, it's about (as I said) the lack of variety.Here's an example that may answer your question. Spain has a national cheese called Manchego. Go into any supermarket and you will find dozens of varieties of Manchego. BUT, try to get another world renowned cheese and you're lucky if you get one variety/brand. Also, Spain is credited as being the pork capital of Europe. Good Iberico ham is something else. However, I've been here for nearly three years and I'm yet to find a single rasher of bacon. Yeah, they've got stuff that they call bacon but, trust me, it's NOT BACON! And forget trying to find a decent pork chop or a pork loin steak. My local butcher thinks that I'm a raving lunatic every time I tell him how I want my loin steak sliced off the main slab of meat. Same thing happens with beef steak.

I better stop because this feels like a rant hahahaha

You’re making tons of sense and illustrated the situation with flair. I get it. Fortunately the problem doesn’t exist here. I just have the last of what we’re clearly the best cantelope I’ve ever had. These things weee the size of rugby balls. They were deliciously naturally sweet and the texture was perfect. I hope my wife gets more. They came from a reasonably nearby farm. I personally likely ate 3/4 of it. Don’t even feel guilty it was that good. @room101
