paganda online. And you could get 15 years for looking at what they labeled far-right. 15 years in prison for reading. 15 years in prison for reading because you read the wrong stuff. Now that doesn't even sound real does it? I don't know if this is a law that already passed or is being considered. I forget. But the fact that that's even on the discussion, 15 years for looking at far-right materia…
← Previous segment →d 12 dog sledge patrols to monitor an area four times the size of France. Four dog sledge patrols. But not to worry they're going to upgrade their military to include three new Arctic Navy vessels and doubling the number of planned long-range surveillance drones to four from two to four as well as satellite surveillance. So that should protect them in case America wants to conquer them.
But then I found out this. According to a Danish politician they've done the math. Did you know that the US military has 300 to 400 soldiers in Greenland already? That's normal. It's not new. We've got 300 to 400 military already in Greenland. America does. And what are they doing there? They're part of an early warning radar defense. So they're operating a radar defense. Because if you're monitoring some radar what you need is 300 to 400 people, right? Because monitoring the radar is kind of sitting there looking at a screen and you're going to need hundreds of people to... what? Why are there 300 to 400 people? I have no idea why we have 300 or 400 people if we're just a radar site. Anyway so the Danish politician said that if Trump just said all right we own it now, we already have enough military to conquer it. We wouldn't even have to move troops in. We could just say you know we've got 300 soldiers there and that would be enough to conquer all of Greenland. So I guess Trump can take it if he wants it. Even Denmark says all he'd have to do is say he's taking it and we couldn't do anything. And I agree they probably couldn't do anything about that.
Well let me tell you that if you're subscribing to the Dilbert comic, which you can only subscribe to and see if you're on X, just go to my account on X and you'll see the button. Or if you're a Locals member but that's more political and a little bit naughtier so make sure you can handle the political stuff if you want to be on Locals. But we have a lot of fun on Locals because it's more of a community. And the Dilbert cartoons this week feature Dilbert who's been disgraced on the internet and he has to deal with being disgraced on the internet except that he finds that it just makes his life better. So you'll have to follow it to see. And also the Dilbert calendar for this year. Now that a month has passed you can use the discount code to get it for 10% less because you missed a month. And it's basically the calendar is like buying a Dilbert book it's just in calendar form. So it's got a year of comics on the front, a year of comics on the back of each page. So some of them are Dilbert Reborn, the spicier ones, and some of them are the classics. And there's no real reason that you have to wait till the beginning of the year to buy the calendar. It's really just a way to read comics every day. So you don't have to be reading them in the exact order that they're on the calendar. But if you want that discount code you can see it's the pinned post on my X account. You'll see it there and you'll see the link to buy it. The only link where you can buy it.
