You can now view this system that I built whenever you want without me posting videos all the time. No automatic weather warnings yet. I need active warnings to test it.

In order: 1. Explore, Build, destroy, repeat. 2. Run around, unalive hordes, teleport, repeat. 3. Explore, shoot, destroy, repeat. 4. Fly around, destroy ships, portal, repeat. 5. Explore, unalive creatures, destroy, build, repeat. 6. Run around, shoot at things, you die, repeat. I could go on. 😅

Libya (2011)Targeted Leader: Muammar Gaddafi (de facto ruler).   US Action: During the Arab Spring, anti-government protests erupted in Libya. Under UN Security Council Resolution 1973—initially framed as a humanitarian effort to establish a "no-fly zone" to protect civilians—the US and NATO launched a sustained campaign of air strikes. The mission rapidly expanded beyond civilian protection into direct air support and intelligence sharing for rebel ground forces seeking Gaddafi's overthrow.Replacement: Gaddafi was captured and killed by rebel forces in October 2011. The regime was replaced by the National Transitional Council (NTC), ushering in a prolonged period of state fragmentation and civil war.Ukraine (2014)
Targeted Leader: President Viktor Yanukovych (democratically elected).

US Action: Following Yanukovych’s decision to reject a European Union trade deal in favour of a Russian loan package, mass Euromaidan protests broke out in Kyiv. High-ranking US officials, including Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and Senator John McCain, actively attended protests and met with opposition leaders. Leaked audio of a phone call between Nuland and the US Ambassador to Ukraine revealed active US discussions on shaping the post-Yanukovych government composition ("I think Yats is the guy").

Replacement: Following violence in Kyiv, Yanukovych fled the country in February 2014. The Ukrainian parliament removed him from power and appointed an interim government headed by Arseniy Yatsenyuk ("Yats") until formal elections took place.Bolivia (2019)Targeted Leader: President Evo Morales (democratically elected).US Action: Following the October 2019 election, the Organization of American States (OAS)—substantially funded by the US—issued a controversial preliminary report alleging widespread electoral fraud in Morales' victory (a claim later disputed by independent statistical analyses from the Center for Economic and Policy Research). The US immediately backed the OAS findings, and the military subsequently forced Morales to resign and go into exile.   Replacement: Conservative opposition politician Jeanine Áñez declared herself interim president, receiving prompt diplomatic recognition and support from Washington before new elections were held a year later.Venezuela (2019–Present)
Targeted Leader: President Nicolás Maduro (elected in controversial elections).

US Action: Following the 2018 presidential election—which the US and several allies declared fraudulent—the Trump administration officially withdrew recognition of Maduro. In January 2019, Washington recognized National Assembly head Juan Guaidó as the legitimate interim president. The US instituted maximum-pressure economic sanctions, attempted to leverage military defections, and froze Venezuelan state assets abroad to force Maduro out.

Replacement: Although Guaidó was recognized by the US and roughly 50 allies as the head of state, the effort failed to remove Maduro from power, and the Venezuelan opposition dissolved Guaidó's "interim government" in late 2022.

I keep seeing comments about the US *now* being a "rogue state"... I'll remind those in the US, that their country has continuously interfered with countless countries elections. Here are 14 instances where the US took action because they didn't like leaders or those elected democratically. 1-10 👇🏻

Oi, Burnham, you do NOT speak for me & it is likely you do not speak for over 60% of the UK population. Unless you tell that tangerine tw@t to fucking do one, you won't win back lost voters that think any relationship with the US (even as allies) is NOT worth it with their administrations attacks.
Burnham plays down past critical comments about Trump, saying it's right to 'move beyond' them
Speaking to journalists on his flight to New York, Andy Burnham played down suggestions that previous critical things he has said about Donald Trump could cause a problem when they meet later.

As with almost everyone on the left of politics in the UK, Burnham has a longish record of saying disobliging things about the US president. In 2017, as mayor of Greater Manchester, Burnham said that as a “matter of principle” he would not meet Trump because of the “hateful, extremist material” he posted online. After Trump backed his supporters who stormed the US Capitol on 6 January 2021 to try to overturn the presidential election result, Burnham said: “Any UK politician who gave Trump the time of day should be ashamed right now.” Only last year he accused Trump of bringing “instability to the world”.

Burnham did not apologise for any of these comments, or retract them, but he told reporters it was time to move on. He also pointed out that Trump had been dismissive of him recently, describing him as “the mayor of a town”.

Burnham said:

Politicians say things throughout their career, but now the important thing is to focus on the moment you are in, and I did say to the president in our first phone call, I said Mr President, Manchester isn’t ‘some town’. I said ‘this is Manchester’.

And so yes, the right thing to do is to have a laugh about it, isn’t it, and move beyond it.

Asked if he could trust Trump, Burnham said:

When you come into this job, you realise how deep this relationship is. We trust our allies. Of course, we do.

Asked if he trusted Trump personally, Burnham replied: “Yes.”

Holy shit... This is the fucker that took advantage of my mental state between November 2022 to June 2023 after a relationship breakup. Luckily, he didn't receive a penny from me. 89 charges on a 22-page charge sheet. Fucking hell. I bet one of them involves firearm possession too.
Robert Becker, 34, is alleged to have duped almost 40 victims including children out of more than £40,000 from consultations while also handing out medication which potentially risked lives.

He is said to have pretended to be a doctor, psychologist and pharmacologist at fake surgeries in Edinburgh and Dalkeith, Midlothian.

Becker now faces 89 charges on a 22-page charge sheet spanning from September 2022 to August 2025.

'You're killing yourselves': Trump doubles down on criticism of UK immigration
As on previous occasions when Donald Trump has addressed European affairs, he once more revisited a favourite subject, immigration, at the embassy.

Discussing his government's tough deportation policy, Trump said:

"I hate to tell you, they could watch what we've done, and so could other Europeans, you know, I love Europe. My mother was from Scotland, father was from Germany. Love Europe. I have a natural inclination.

"I sort of hate to see what's happening with Europe. I hate to see what's happening on trade. I hate to see what's happening on energy.

"And I hate to see what's happening on immigration. Oh, that immigration, what you're doing to yourselves, you're just killing yourselves."

For context: Net migration to the UK fell by some 48% last year to 171,000 people, down from 331,000 in 2024.

This marked its lowest level since 2012, excluding the Covid-19 pandemic.

Miliband should proceed with the Israeli sanctions... If the US stops Brits from proceeding with business and transactions as a result, I'd personally see that as an unintended win over thick as fuck Republicans. News source - Sky News - news.sky.com/story/politi...
Huckabee went on to warn that the US government could respond, saying: "I don't know what all of the national sanctions or repercussions or retaliations will be from the US, hasn't been announced yet.

"But I do know that there are a number of states. Let me mention one, one of the largest US states, Florida, that has a law that if this action is taken, then Brits will not be able to do business with any company or business in Florida."

Republican congressman from Florida and Trump ally Randy Fine reiterated the latter point in a social media post overnight, writing on X: "Florida is one of Britain's largest trading partners.
