Reminds me of that scene from the emperor’s new groove
“Tell us where they are and I’ll burn your house down!”
“Don’t you mean or?”
For what it’s worth, you’re objectively correct, regardless of what anyone else says. The majority of the country didn’t vote for him, and yes, inb4 “not voting is voting!” The people who didn’t vote are making a civic choice, and that choice lead to a trump presidency. But it doesn’t mean those people wanted him, or like him. It means they were politically un/underinformed, or didn’t want to have to make a choice between fascism and slower fascism (I hated making that choice, voted for Kamala). we are a nation of 340 million people. 75 million voted for trump. That’s 22%.
There’s your number. 22% of the US wanted this guy. Anything else is speculation. The only thing we know is that 22% voted for him.
Give Americans a politician worth voting for, someone with a backbone who believes in the universal right to healthcare, childcare and all the other things industrialized countries have by this point, and who doesn’t believe a little genocide is okay, as a treat, and you’ll see a different fucking result.
In other words, to my dear European friends blaming every American for the act of 22% of us, if we had a politician to vote for who would even try to give us 1\10th of what you already have maybe more people would have gotten off their ass and voted. But our elections have a different fucking vibe. We’re not fighting to keep what we’ve got here, we’re fighting to get some level of human decency so that we won’t have to watch our parents work into their late 80s with 3 days of sick time per year, and then die sleeping on the sofa in our living rooms because God knows their can’t afford to keep their house in this economy.
Yeah, you nailed it. Obvious in hindsight, but until this I had just assumed it was accurate, like, even if everyone wasn’t counted, I guess had I been pressed, I would have assumed there was some formula or something to account for the uncounted or some shit. Kinda wild
Also, village isn’t a word we really use in the US, but now that you say it, I guess that’s kind or exactly what it is. A little village of insane, isolated, meth makin’ hillbillies up in the woods that aren’t accessible by road.
I personally know of ~400 people who are absolutely not counted on any census and I’d be willing to bet not included in any population stats. Whole town up in the mountains. I’d imagine if that can happen in the us, it’s not unlikely to happen elsewhere, so sure… But when they do the whole earth population calculations, I always assumed they just checked in a few extra people to account for, like, uncounted towns and shit
Thing is, I only had a minor sore throat for like 24 hours, with a couple white spots, and honestly, I just thought the sore throat was from some, uh, recreational activity the night before. But I felt just awful and flinchy* for several days, then I got these red bumps all over my back and shoulders, and then almost died.
*I get flinchy when I have a fever or get sick. Something touches me and it’s like my body jumps or flinches and I don’t understand it at all. It’s happened my whole life, but about 6 months after the scarlet fever I got mono, and got super flinchy as well, and now that’s just a thing that happens to me now, where my body involuntarily flinches whenever anything touches it. It’s not all the time, but it’ll do it for several days with no reason, and then not again for months. Doc doesn’t know why, but guesses it’s because the mono virus sticks around in you forever, and it’s just an after effect. Says hopefully it’ll go away eventually, but it’s been like 5 years, and every so often (coincidentally happening the last couple days) I just suddenly become a scared Chihuahua or some shit
TIL why my mom always checked my throats for spots whenever we mentioned any kind of not feeling well. First thing she did. I always assumed it was just a strep thing, but she grew up in a time when measles was still an active threat. I just remember white spots in the throat being the biggest thing. No white spots, go to bed. White spots, go to doctor.
Fun fact: I ignored that advice in my late twenties and ended up with scarlet fever. Like a fucking Victorian child. Didn’t even know scarlet fever was still a thing.
Please tell me I’m not the only one who thought that was something other than a pacifier when I first glanced at the image
That’s such lunacy. Just because your denomination is different doesn’t mean it has a monopoly on the religion. Catholics have that same vibe to me, just not as weird about it.
Thing is, though, anti catholicism runs deep among the evangelical crowd. This is, as far as the mega (maga) church crowd is concerned, a ringing fucking endorsement of Trump.
If anyone wants to print this and sell me one, I would be very, very game for that.
It’s way better than a laptop. I can’t hold a laptop and play games with the ease I can pop this out of it’s case and use.
That’s what I’m saying. I hate taking it and a laptop when I know I’m gonna be somewhere for hours. If they made the case like a stand, with room in it for a small keyboard and mouse, I could basically just have the one device for everything I need.
Oh I know they do great on some (most?) of their consoles, but I still think they do better at actual games than they do at consoles. Also, aren’t consoles almost always money losers, anyway? Like, they take a hit so that they can sell more games, which actually make them the money? Or is Nintendo the exception to that rule or thumb?
I know it’s not happening, but I’d love it if Nintendo went the way of Sega, and just made games. They’ve always been hit and miss with their consoles anyway, it’s the games people love. Just fuck it, start releasing games for multiple platforms and focus on what you’re actually fucking good. Pipe dream, I know
Yay! I’ve wanted to pay OOT and MM 3DS versions forever, and never got the chance. Tried to get the emulator working a few months ago, and just could not make it happen. Maybe I’ll be able to with this
Is this only land borders? The US and Russia share a maritime border
You’re right. I forgot about that. It was glorious.
