Hard disagree. Traffic flows so much better with one ways. If you can’t figure out how alternating streets work, then that’s a you problem. We got rid of them in my town because the bottom 10 percent of the bell curve just couldn’t, and the results were predictable.
It’s only a rebellion if you lose.
Ahh. I live next to Quebec, didn’t realize that was a regional thing. What’s a good French swear a Frenchman would use?
Fucking cartoonish in their villainy…
Too many shrooms. Just let him ride it out
Tabernac!!!
Heelies were the shit! If they ever make a pair that will work for a 300lb, 6’6 man, I’m sure to get maimed!
I was wondering about that. Like these people are being deported, but instead they’re just in a gulag for how long… Are they actually being repatriated to their country of origin?
The original Romans weren’t too far removed from Greek people, both in geography and ancestry. They’re both Indo-European, and as such shared a lot of the religion and had somewhat similar languages. And Greek people had been settling and colonizing the east coast of Italy for some centuries before rome really got rolling. I think it’s fairer to say they translated a lot of what Greece had going on than just adopted it.
If you look to early Roman history, you can see they straight up lost their shit when confronted with a culture that was totally foreign to them. See the punic wars and the salting of Carthage.
They’re close to saying the quiet part out loud here. The reason (one of them) universal healthcare gets so much pushback is because an employer provided healthcare is a major way to keep the working class in their place.
I know so many people who have stayed in shitty abusive jobs because they can’t lose the healthcare. Imagine if people could fuck off and decide to live a less resource intensive life? Would be terrible for the economy.
I’m pissed at the state of healthcare health business in this (u.s.) country, and I think you should be too!
It predates aliens as little green men. And I’m sure the word is a legally recognized phrase. It’s quickly becoming, if not already a slur though. Here’s googles etymological breakdown.
The word “alien” originates from the Latin word “aliễnus,” meaning “belonging to another, foreign, strange”. It’s a derivative of “alius,” meaning “other,” ultimately tracing back to the Proto-Indo-European root "h,élyos. This root also gives rise to the word “else”. The word “alien” entered Middle English from Old French, and its earliest usage as a noun and adjective in the 14th century referred to foreigners or strangers.
We kept asking could we?
Only too late we as should we?
It’s half grift, half an avenue for bribery. Buying a lot of this coin is slightly less conspicuous than showing up at the white house with a sack of krugerrands.
Then again with this administration the grift is just right out in the open. So maybe this is a dumb as it looks.
I like the Mr. Burns version
Lol just can’t have it! It’s so stupid. Co-ops are awesome!
Although a bunch of them did go to Russia right after the revolution there only to eventually get purged by Stalin. Caused a lot of rifts in the community, to this day there’s still some who are very anti anything socialist.
I grew up in an all white town. We didn’t segregate, there just wasn’t any brown or black folk. A hierarchy still emerged.
At the top you had your “Americans”, you can read that as English, German, Norwegian (lots of Norwegians) descendants, protestant.
Next you had the Catholics, your Irish and spare whomever from the first category who happened to be Catholic.
Then you had the Polish, (yours truly!). While still Catholic, we were still gross pollaks. Everyones favorite punchline.
Then it was the Slavic people, mostly Czechoslovakian, they had a reputation for being scary mofos so no one fucked with them.
At the very bottom you had the Finlanders. They were always starting co-ops and acting in a very socialist way, so no one trusted them. Fuckin Finlanders…
I haven’t owned a personal auto for 12 years, my commute is dictated by how fast I walk. And I’m tired of things being designed to cater to the dumbest among us. Look both ways before you cross the road. Know where you’re going and how you’ll get there before you begin your trip.
