China is our biggest problem
A second answer is ecological and climate collapse. Cheap oil has so far insulated urban industrial people from most effects of increasing and catastrophic damage to the biosphere. But industrial collapse will mean the end of that insulation, and will mean that thousands of years of civilization’s “ecological debt” will come due. Furthermore, the earth is not just a passive battlefield—it’s alive, and it’s fighting on the side of the living.

China is our biggest problem so I think that the water we should watch is the Three Gorges Dam.
Collapse will mean punishment for the WuFlu and would take out Xi's government and maybe upend the CCP. If the CCP goes, the military will fill the vacuum and would be too busy organizing to fight any wars or make payoffs to politicians.

Just change the thing from GIF to JPG. That easy. 😁
Where it says GIF, highlight it and type in JPG.
Ummm... no. Doesn't change the file type, only changes the file association.

cranky, that proof raises the question, "Who does POTUS refer to?" in the following line from #35
POTUS will be well insulated/protected on AF1 and abroad (specific locations classified) while these operations are conducted due to the nature of the entrenchment.
Could it be Pence is POTUS at the point that line occurs?
Worth noting that there are ZERO posts with "President Trump" in and only 1 with "President Donald Trump" (#2943)!
POTUS is always used and therefore the subject is dependent on the timing.
The President Pro Tempore of the U.S. Senate, also known as the president pro tem, is the second-highest-ranking official of the United States Senate.[1]
The United States Constitution states that the Vice President of the United States is the President of the Senate, despite not being a senator, and that the Senate must choose a president pro tempore.[1] The president pro tempore, or "president for a time," is elected by the Senate and is, by custom, the senior member of the majority party.[2][3]
The Constitution provides for a president pro tempore to preside over the Senate in the absence of the vice president. Except for the years from 1886 to 1947, the president pro tempore has also been included in the presidential line of succession.[1]

There you go. Crank was able to post the pic to thread that I linked to twitter a few pages back. thanks Cranky!
At the Cairo Conference in November 1943, in the middle of World War Two, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill and Chiang Kai-shek agreed that Japan should lose all the territories it had conquered by force. At the end of the conference, the three powers declared that they were, "mindful of the enslavement of the people of Korea, ... determined that in due course Korea shall become free and independent.
Efforts to nationalize its fossil fuel supply from Western companies led to an Anglo-American coup in 1953, which resulted in greater autocratic rule under Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and growing Western political influence.
As the United Kingdom agreed to the partitioning of India in 1947, the modern state of Pakistan was established on 14 August 1947
Pakistan was one of the first countries to establish formal diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China, and the relationship continues to be strong since China's war with India in 1962, forming a special relationship. From the 1960s to 1980s, Pakistan greatly helped China in reaching out to the world's major countries and helped facilitate US President Nixon's state visit to China. Despite the change of governments in Pakistan and fluctuations in the regional and global situation, China's policy in Pakistan continues to be a dominant factor at all times. ... Pakistan continues to serve as China's communication bridge to the Muslim world.
Northern Ireland was created in 1921, when Ireland was partitioned between Northern Ireland and Southern Ireland by the Government of Ireland Act 1920. Unlike Southern Ireland, which would become the Irish Free State in 1922, the majority of Northern Ireland's population were unionists, who wanted to remain within the United Kingdom.

Checked and phoneposting, excuse the post count. The first "extraction order" referenced 0200 Zulu time, it was 0200 Zulu when I posted my response. I was saying that 1.5 hours would be plenty enough time for anyone to hide if they needed to hide, so if it was real info then whoever posted it just broke opsec in a pretty bad way.
