From 0.7% in the last election

They’ve done very very well one specific locality(which is a big city). We’ll see in a few hours if that performance gets them into national parliament I really hopr it does

IIRC this mouth breather was never personally popular, people just wanted to vote out the tories

Y’know, at first I wanted to say “you yankees have such werid names for things”, but then I looked up what that was and now I’m like, yeah that’s gotta have it’s own specific name

I’m surprised Musk is still trying to pick up new grifts, like, one would think that he’d be trying his best to find a way to salvage his twitter purchase and pawn it off to someone else, what’s the point of trying to get inside the US government?

The best idea I can think of is getting a job in a Trump cabinet, de-regulating something that allows him to then make a ton of money, use it to clear whatever debts he has or holes he got himself into, and then dip out.

In other news, this sunday there are legislative election in Austria and the far-right FPO is leading the polls with 25-29%, here’s the new Michael Roberts on Austria. The communist party of Austria, which currently holds the mayorship in Austria’s second largest city of Graz, “could” re-enter parliament for the first time since 1959 since it’s polling at 3-4% and the treshold to enter parliament is 4%

So, like, from Satanyahu’s point of view, this is the time to accept a ceasefire and hostage deal right?

The whole personal point of continuing the wars for him is that he’s in trouble with the law and a lot of people didn’t like him, but now with these successes in Lebanon his party is leading the polls again, and the AJ+ guy on the latest chapo said that (and this was BEFORE killing Nasrallah) he was the most popular politician in Israel again, so if he starts moving towards accepting a ceasefire while he’s a ugh “”“hero”“” to israelis won’t that mean they’ll think twice before prosecuting the man who “saved northern israel”?

If Israel strikes Iran like this I’ll raise the probability to an 8

5, I really think the resistance knows that the US will 100% defend Israel militarily if they launch a real assault on it.

I switched from subs to dubs (whenever the option is available) years ago and a this point I couldn’t tell you there’s any difference in “quality”, it’s just a different way of watching the show, do you want to watch a show where people speak like cartoon characters but you don’t recognize it because you don’t speak the language and also you gotta read subtitles or do you want to watch a show where people speak like cartoon characters and you can recognize it because you speak english and it will be cringe until it’s not anymore.

Anyway Delicious in Dungeon was really good, Frieren I didn’t watch but I saw that they gave her a deep voice in the dub and that’s 10000% better than a young sounding voice for that character. Cowboy Bebop is famous for it’s superior dub. If you liked Dragon Ball you can pick one of the modern Fight/Battle animes like Demon Slayer, JJK or Mha.

There’s “March comes in like a lion” which is a drama about a kid who plays Shogi, which also has a great dub

What does he think about Portugal?

Omg I had to look up if this was real (literally googled “the curse the blessing”), he’s so fucking childish

cough cough well you see back in the day…

The left won but it didn’t have an absolute majority, not even close, macron got second place and the far right got third. Ultimately, the president has to appoint a prime-minister (a government) to be approved by the parliament.

How it usually goes in france is that even if the president is not of the same party as the largest party in parliament, he’ll still appoint a PM from that party and you have what’s called “co-habitation” between the president and government sharing power.

Macron instead of doing that made a deal with the far-right to get their votes in appointing a center-right (not from the far-right party) prime-minister instead. So, ultimately yeah he probably has the right to do that legally but when you see people calling that outrageous they’re making a political statement that macron preferred to share power with the far right than with the left

“Voting” means different things in different political systems and it’s disingenuous (whether you’re a blue no matter who dem or an online communist) to equate them

Harry Potter is the exception

Good, the hold this party has (or used to had) on the youth fucking sucks, of course Die Linke is barely around anymore to pick them up but I’m always glad when green (in 2 ways) leftists wake up to reality about green parties (especially this one)

Why does the old version look more textured and detailed than the new?

The guy from family guy??

I hope these guys settle it out
