They’re already working on brainwashing their base on this one. My dad started talking about how in Europe ATC is handled by a private company, not a part of the EU government.
I had to explain to him that Eurocontrol is an international organization, and that international organizations aren’t the same thing as private companies. No one calls the UN General Assembly, the WTO, or the IMF “private companies.”
Au contraire! As was sung, "I am the one thing in life I can't control"
Are you referring to Wait For It?
Cause the line is “I am the one thing in life I can control”
Also Burr definitely didn’t “wait for it” when it came to boning down on that British dude’s wife.
Vince Vaughn was perfectly cast for Bad Monkey, IMO. He fit the role well, so he worked well for it.
As an American I used to use a variation of this phrase.
Then I decided to experimentally switch to using Celsius. Took a few weeks/months to really internalize it and stop having to do on-the-fly conversions, but honestly I love it.
It’s remarkable how useful having 0 be freezing is for weather. It makes understanding sub-freezing temperatures much easier. Which also helps reinforce what a degree Celsius means.
I wish other Americans would try it. I haven’t gone back, all my devices are still on Celsius over five years later.
Good ol’ fen-phen.
I mean, I and others friends have made jokes about the 51st state thing with a Canadian friend in our group. But everyone in that group knows how fucking absurd the idea is, and everyone in the group knows that no one in the group is in favor of it. Sort of gallows humor.
I have to hope that’s what those others were trying with their jokes, trying to relieve tension by mocking the absurdity. But obviously if that backfires, it’s certainly not the fault of the receiver of the joke. Intention matters but it isn’t everything.
You say that, but in Nazi Germany (whose playbook we’re following) economic crisis was part of the rise of fascism. Not its fall.
Over half of Zoomers can already vote. Gen Z is roughly 1997-2012.
Unfortunately the younger they are the more likely they are to be conservative it seems. More poisoned by the algorithms.
I would much rather have Camacho as president than Cheeto Benito.
It was remarkable how much fake Weird Al music there was. Someone maintained a helpful “Not Al” list.
Flip the script, say she’s gaslighting you by pretending to smell things that aren’t there.
(Don’t actually do this unless you really hate your relationship.)
And every time we cut off antibiotic treatment of tuberculosis we’re rolling the dice on resistance. It’s a matter of time before we have a version of TB we can’t treat in the developed world, too, if this behavior keeps up.
