The resolution also condemns Putin’s regime for its hostility towards democracy and its negative impact on the European and global order

Nice try PACE, but I'm not joining the MP exarchate no matter how based you make them sound.

i haven't read that item yet, but would it be possible to create a new forum or subforum for news ??
That would be GREAT ! I don't look at any regular news, so I would like to have a safe place to catch whatever is relevant.
What about it
Also, our World Orthodox forum is always the busiest ! Would it be possible to divide that up somehow ?

Eish, what is based ?

A slang term. You know "debased" which refers to all manner of social ills. The women are debasing themselves, the currency is being debased, etc. Take the "de-" out and you get "based," meaning the opposite.

OH ! I would NEVER have guessed that in a hundred years ! When did this expression gain currency, so to speak ? Last few years, last 5 years, 10 years ?

I think it has its origins in black American slang but became popular online over the last, oh I'd say more than a decade. Depends which subcultures you're talking about because it became popular popular faster in certain echo chambers, like image boards.

We need a Scooby-Doo edit of "now let's see who's really behind the mask" with the MP and it's Stalin
