Same. On my Android, when there is an IG post it fills the entire screen and when I swipe up to continue it doesn't move. It takes a while to react. If there was anything on the screen NOT on the IG post that I could use to touch and drag, it moves. After it releases the freeze it jumps to a random spot like if it had actually worked while I was trying to drag the screen. Make sense now for the naysayers?

“Bear season is coming, make sure you are too.”
I already came. I thought bear season did too (maybe it’s the weather), but I guess sometimes they’re faking it. I can try to rally, but I’m not as young as I once was…

Nobody is immune. You need to be careful what roads you drive on.
That guy seem a bit off to anyone else, or is it just me?

I remember reading some remarks on the subject of dealing with a tenacious and dangerous when provked adversary. As best as I recall it went something like this….
“If you are going to try to dispatch a badger with a shovel, once you start you’re committed and it takes more than one hit.”
Was striking Iran now the right move? Time will tell but in my opinion for this to be beneficial for the US and Israel for the next decade or so they cannot leave the Iranian Islamic regime functional enough to wage asymmetrical warfare at the end of this .
From appearances it seems like Iran’s ability to wage conventional war at sea is gone. Their air force and much of their air defense is gone. Their missile program is probably diminished but I think is still robust enough to cause a lot of damage. If this conflict ends soon with the regime intact I’m expecting them to focus on expanding their arsenal of missiles and missile technology as much as possible.
In my opinion the ability of their ground forces are largely intact. Indeterminate in their morale and the cohesiveness of leadership but more than lethal enough to cause significant casualties in the event of a ground invasion. I’m guessing that the American and Israeli armies could prevail in a toe to toe battle but the fragmented Iranian army would immediately resort to an insurgency that would make Iraq and Afghanistan seem minor in comparison.
The best scenario I think we can hope for is a largely intact Iran with a change of leadership and enough internal stability to contain the radical Islamist elements in the country. The only possible scenario that works for a more stable outcome is for that leadership change and government to come internally from within Iran.
I’m not confident it will happen that way.

I remember when Stockholm syndrome was considered rare.
Trump was right he can do anything and his supporters will eat it up.
Trump told you he was going to do this in 2011. Midterms around the corner.
