It must be like all women in the big cities now.

Pretty much. It's even gotten to the point where if you need some kind of contractor or manual labour done there's a huge backlog. Those tend to be jobs that men work, and most of them are gone now.

Hence Rosie the Riveter in the U.S. in WWII

It’s amazing how long the war has gone on. Sad too. No idea who will win it, but these things tend to end very quickly because a side just collapses materially or morally.

Biden’s guys were morons and Trump is owned by Putin for who knows what reason. I don’t think I’ve been impressed with a US foreign policy team since Bush 1. It’s frustrating.

cj’s post in the bomb Iran thread has me wondering when Trump and Putin last met. Mid-August of last year? That’s more recent than I thought. I guess the bromance isn’t going to solve anything this year, though.
