Regardless of what you think about it, it’s good to know what it means because it’s like the financial thermometer of the US and what moves the world in a lot of ways

I live in Washington State, which is a similar size to Ireland. I live on the east side of the state in the second most populated city. Similar to Cork. It has much of the same dynamic. Dublin being like Seattle to us. Everyone loves to complain about the biggest city am I right? So anyways we have one Federal Represenitive for our side of the state and it was usually a liberal and at one point one of the most powerful in Congress (Tom Folley) but since then the Republicans have dominated the slot. Thing is that our area is mostly farm land.

I understand what you are getting at but the reality is that the farmers are not voting in their best interst most of the time. Identity politics are more import to them then the politics of supporting rural farm life. They would rather vote for the person that paints urban voters as haters and gay and baby killers then vote for the liberal that wants to support their school systems and make the environment healthy by controlling the pollution or overuse of the land. Its maddness and frustrating and I see it in real time because I am engaged with it both in personal life and my job.

This is a really bad take on the situation dude.

It’s probably sucks

Any observations wouldn’t see anything but the whole light

I believe this is explained by Einstein in his example of the train in the Theory of Relativity

You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know . . . morons

Bees wax

Except his prison time and number

IDK maybe you should read the article, seems pretty clear

I like to remember what Tecumseh said

“So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.”

“all is for the best” in the “best of all possible worlds”

Eww

If you’re looking for that flavor, you could just go with Ouzo or if you’re too cheap there’s always Jagermeister

you will not be a loud American in Australia, they won’t allow you to be louder then they are

its bizzaro world down under

I’m definitely not going to look this gift horse in the mouth!

Asking why for everything will do that lol

Wasn’t the biggest complaint about him that he wouldn’t accept an answer without asking why afterwards?

Dude literally had the brain worms(s)

we definitely need more catgirls, i don’t know what that is but it sounds good. Even if my first inclination is that the majority will be femboys. Those guys work hard so I’m willing to give them their due support

you can never be too safe

those one shot, loud and deadly but more to leave a nasty scar and be painful instead of lethal guns

yeah that might make some cowards exposed at the very least
