Ha ha sorry. I am on another thread just now, in a bit of a debate with a couple of Christians over what the Bible says. I was in "bible debate mode".

:-)

No worries :) - I'm actually on an another thread about sleeping naked in bed - should I own to that on here ha! It is actually hilarious - I'm not sure I generally belong on MN! Your other thread sounds very much more edifying.

Which Bible ?

It's not got that far yet :-)

Nor do I think it will.

Putin is taking notes. Attacking energy infraestructure, while asking for a ceasefire.... and filling his bank account.
Also, reduced access to mobile internet.
He has already practiced some skirmish with planes, boats and submarines in the North Sea. Maybe he will bet in the markets.... But I do bet you all that he will make it appearas it is others who are doing so. Being intelligent, as he is.

So it's basically unleashed capitalism ?

I get that. I mean, after all, that is why there was restrictions on the likes of polymarket in the US. But Trump undone that.

Who would have thought it would be the people calling for deregulation are the same people as those who profit from it. But now others can profit from it, will the deregulators be calling for regulation ?

I was being serious - there are many Bibles to choose from.

"AI" says:

Protestant Bibles: Contain 66 books.
Catholic Bibles: Include 73 books, adding the Deuterocanonical books (Apocrypha).
Orthodox Bibles: Can contain upwards of 75 books, including additional texts like 3 Maccabees. 1, 2]

RedTagAlan · 05/05/2026 13:07

Kesbreath on telly now. On Sky

RedTagAlan · 05/05/2026 13:08

Kegbreath just said they are international waters. Actually no. Not all of it.

Ohh.. lots of God Bless.

Yup. I was being serious too. Usually the debates I do online are with US evangelicals, so they use the NKJ. But they call it the King James. But often it ends up with what specific words mean, so that means Hebrew or Greek interlinears.

The Pope is getting told off again. As if he is worried! Excuse me, who has God on his side Donald? I don't believe in God but if I did I know who would be his chosen vessel and its not Mango. Think at his age Trump would be hedging his bets with the Almighty

AcrossthePond55 · 05/05/2026 15:16

Well, it's 7am here so I just woke up and am now having my first cup of coffee. Time to try to make order of the chaos. Or maybe say 'fuck it' and roll over and try to go back to sleep.

This MFC thingy. Is this another grift where he's going to charge countries $1B to join? And Lord, how he does like to insert that MAGA dog whistle catchword 'Freedom' into everything. Good luck with that Scrotus.

And Kegsbreath. So the 'ceasefire isn't over' despite attacks from both sides? Riiiggghhht.

As of 30 minutes ago, cheapest gas/petrol in my area is $5.69/gal. We'll see what it is by the end of the day. Or Thursday. That seems to be the usual day that price increases show up.

Ha ha ha. I just saw that thread.

Arse flaps. Ha ha.

Funny thread indeed. Much better than arguing over what the bible says.

The WH got rid of all the real journalists and now press briefings are for friendly networks and Trump supporting influencers.

I had to look that up, but yup.

It's really a variation on the sub prime collapse of 2008 I suppose.

This thread is amazing for learning (@MsJinks)
Can I add, and the politeness, sweariness, sanity and willingness to learn of the people who use it.🙌

I'm on the Flightradar thread and now feel great sympathy for all the teachers who explain something, only to have half the class ignore what has been said, failed to understand plain English, or just make up their own story anyway.

I predict reported posts followed by deletions on that thread.

It's only Tuesday...

Yeah. I suspect a couple of sock puppets. Someone branching out due to lack of engagement.

Just seen a clip of 🍊🌮 in the Oval, trying to say "Wave the white flag" it took a while for him to get the full phrase out. 🤔

I started to watch the Kegsbreath briefing and had to stop. America's gift to the world is a red, white and blue dome. Vomit inducing.

Joint chiefs of the staff chair Dan Caine says Iran has continued to attack its neighbours, referring to yesterday’s strikes on Oman and the United Arab Emirates.

General Caine says the Iranian attacks have all fallen below the threshold of restarting major combat operations at this point. (The Guardian)
🤔

Things that didn't happen maybe.
The ceasefire had a list of sanctioned actions, each one graded under a point system.
Fire on a vessel - 0.25
Seize a vessel - 0.5
Launch strikes on your neighbour - 1

Once Iran's points added up to 20/30/40 (choose one) the war restarts.

This war has enough material to start a new board game. Lego's Schrodinger's War®

🤣 Indeed. Even on opioids I made more sense than the Orange Idiot.
