To be clear, so far the official US response is “I like Putin. He didn’t mess with our democracy. Let’s build more nukes.” #Repost @ap.images ・・・
Russia has tested an array of new strategic nuclear weapons that can’t be intercepted, President Vladimir Putin declared Thursday, claiming a technological breakthrough that could dramatically increase Russia’s military capability, boost the Kremlin’s global position and also raise Western concerns about a potential renewed arms race in the 21st century.
Speaking in a state-of-the-nation speech, Putin said the weapons include a nuclear-powered cruise missile, a nuclear-powered underwater drone and new hypersonic missile that have no equivalent elsewhere in the world. He said the creation of the new weapons has made NATO’s U.S.-led missile defense “useless,” and means an effective end to what he described as Western efforts to stymie Russia’s development. #APPhoto @alexaderz

“I never heard the end of it when I showed up to Dave’s New Year’s Eve party with a case of Heineken, so I’m definitely not going to make that mistake again,” said local man Nate Walsh, examining and ultimately rejecting a 12-pack of Fat Tire after imagining the ridicule he’d face for choosing such a pedestrian amber ale. “I know if I bring, say, Blue Moon, Dave will make fun of me for getting something so mass-produced, but if I go with some obscure Belgian-style saison, I’ll get totally roasted for trying too hard. I might be safe with an IPA from a local craft brewery, but honestly, if it doesn’t have a good flavor profile, that prick is going to rip me to shreds regardless.” #TheOnion
