Since all real people accessing the site will be doing so through a browser, which has JavaScript built in

Many blind people don't, because for blind people a text-based interface makes a LOT more sense than a graphical user interface. And the text-based browsers don't precisely excel on JavaScript.

(But, who cares about some blind people anyway?)

At least in Finland, it has become surprisingly normal to keep your shoes on the train seat. For the second picture... It does say "two interrail travellers", but that could very well be because those are the only one of the three travelling together that you can see reasonably well on the picture. So, maybe the two know it's okay for the third? Also: Who took this photo, anyway?

And you sometimes pick one dandelion too many and forget how to walk faster than 3 km/h.

Mit dem Einstieg der Italiener wird der Verkehr in Deutschland um einiges pünktlicher.

Any idea what the 1950's stock is that they mention there?

So, apparently their "argument" was:

gender ideology with multiple sexes.

How does being allowed to beat up women mean there will be less sexes? I can understand 10 % or 20 % being deranged enough for this, but not over 50 %!

Entirely human :)

It's just good to keep the level of conversation excellent instead of just good. It's in the interests of Ukraine!

And fuck you too.

I would prefer not seeing this kind of phrasing here. It looks like hanrahan had misunderstood something, was writing in good faith, and is very much of the same opinions as you are.

Of course "Fuck Eurpeans" was not the most tactful phrasing either, but it's still not directly directed towards an individual person, unlike "fuck you". (And of course: If there's an actual pro-Russian monster in the conversation, feel free to use bad words of them!)

Of course all in all, it's good to see two people who both are as very vehemently on Ukraine's side as both of youse seem to be!

There's the thing known as white passport, officially "Certificate of identity" or semi-officially "Alien's passport". That's a document that looks just like a passport of a country but has a white cover instead of red, black, green or blue. It means that the country that has issued the white passport proves that the person is who they say they are, and it also tends to mean that that person has a right to reside in that country. It's much more difficult to travel abroad with a white passport than with an actual passport, but it gets you started. Then, after living somewhere long enough, you can get a new citizenship and get on with your life at last.

One thing that can be difficult is that to get some other citizenship, many countries require you to get rid of our previous ones first. For example in the Russia you can get rid of your citizenship only by travelling to the Russia and doing all the paperwork there. Which takes about two months. During which time they'll send you to the front and you'll die. It depends on the mood of the worker whether you can get a white passport in such a case or not.

You're not stateless if you are a citizen of a country. The country you are a citizen of refusing to fulfill its duties doesn't make you stateless yet.

Reading these news about how LNG goes up or down, it's good to keep in mind that pre-2022, almost no LNG was exported from the Russia at all.

Gas sold by the Russia was almost exclusively sold through pipes, and that is in gas form, not liquid.

The amount of LNG has grown in comparison to the almost nothing at all that was sold pre-2022, but the amount of LNG now being bought from the Russia is only a small fraction of what we bought through the gas pipe network before 2022.

Of course, we still must end buying any gas at all from the Russia, but it's important to understand that we do already have very effective sanctions against Russian gas exports! This "Russian LNG is being bought several times more than in 2021!" is a very misleading thing.
