There are two factors that can vaguely suggest that that they should have at least expected the sanctions to not topple Russia. If they didn’t then they are stupid. China and India.

India would collapse without Russian oil. Ever since the war began India has become a shady middleman that smuggles Russian fuel to Europe to bypass sanctions. Not only this, but it seems like the US is okay with this for some reason. They haven’t pressured the BJP regime at all about this.

And with China’s and Russia’s technological and industrial bases combined there is not much else that is left to be desired. West’s innovation since the war began has been just LLMs which they can live without.

There is no reason US should have expected China or India to isolate Russia over this war. That’s why I’m a bit confused.

I think China could possibly grow at 10% still if they adopted awful policies and engaged in number padding like GDP obsessed economies do. But it’s rather that they realise that they don’t need to and they shouldn’t.

Do you think the ghouls in the US intended beforehand for the sanctions on Russia to strangle Europe rather than Russia?

What is economic success, what is value creation? Maybe, just maybe, it’s the approach that delivers the most tangible improvements in people’s lives, instead of trillion-dollar companies and billionaire CEOs.

Banger.

As far as I can tell, they are the same in substance. The language of B seems more accessible to me so I would go with that.

This is by units sold btw. An important metric but maybe if one looked at something like revenue or profit it’s possible that Apple is still very competitive. Just spitballing since I don’t know the details.

Google “electoral college explained for children”

That’s a good one

How do you play this with the gnawing feeling that you are playing it suboptimally and won’t be able to max out all social links?

He seems to be saying that since a lot of people have died already there is not much special about new deaths. It’s the kind of logic that only a US state dept spokesperson can think up since all of them are pretty much the antichrist with the veneer of liberal decorum.

Sorry but what is QAA ep?

Did not expect this honestly.

Thanks

Thanks a lot. Are there known aliens in the story apart from the mysterious thing you mentioned?

Let me know if you are able to recall which npc it is that talks about the ritual. Would love to read their lives. But definitely don’t stress about it.

Oh ok. I failed every NPC quest in the game because I was on autopilot and completed the invasion fight.

Where?

I don’t even know how

I think that’s understandable since that is just a lot of video game. You could try taking a break and playing it later. If you are worried about breaking the continuity, I think you could make a new character, farm levels in the mohgwyn dynasty area and then just beat Radahn and Mohg to enter the DLC then go from there.
