President Freedom Fries can call it whatever the fuck he wants. That doesn't make it internationally recognized.
There's still a lot of bad blood between the Danes and the Canadians. A lot of good young men watched booze being spilled in front of them. It was horrific. I just don't know if there's any coming back from the kind of horrors both countries saw in the Whiskey War.
The irony of all of it is that technically I can become a dual citizen anytime I wanted to file the paperwork since my parents are Portuguese citizens. But up until recently I've never felt the need for that particular escape valve.
I've always known I would have to get it eventually in order to handle my now ageing father's finances over there when he passes. And I always regretted not doing it when I was young and free to travel before life gets one bogged down in trivialities.
Meh. My real world would know what my digital world already knows, that I'm much more of a nerd than I portray myself as.
It's not because I purposefully hide it. It's because it's not a topic that is interesting to anyone in my real world circle of friends. I don't have real world friends who want to talk about Linux, and Open Source, and retro-video games, and all of the other stuff that I ramble on about online in forums where the peeps who understand me all hang out.
There's probably some very surprising porn habits in there as well that my real world friends and family would have NO CLUE about, but c'est la vie.
"China's Tibet"
Go fuck yourself.
Is there some kind of loophole where Canada can join the EU? I mean we're not really that far away if you fly over the North Pole and down again.
Pretty please? Think of the better costs for Poutine and Maple Syrup!
Not in a million years.
There is no such thing as a perfectly accurate touch pad "click". Most people (myself included) tend to see their finger slip (even just a millimeter) to the right or the left when pressing down to click on a touchpad. It leads to go knows how many times that my cursor in the middle of typing has suddenly jumped to a completely different line. In fact, it's why they implemented the option to turn off the touchpad when typing.
So now let's introduce ANOTHER use to that part of the keyboard. Not only do we have to deal with a wandering cursor, but we have to deal with random spaces popping into existence every time we try to scroll.
Screw that.
I sure wish I lived in a country that had the balls to tell Trump where to shove it rather than where I currently live, which is bending over backwards to elect a Trump clone who will willingly bend over at the first opportunity.
Musk's entire job is to keep the media focused on him and his stupidity so that we aren't paying attention to what his useful orange idiot is doing.
I didn't know what to do with my hours at work. I was almost at the point of actually...working...gross.
Rock me, sexy jesus.
As in everything in life, your right to swing your fist ends where my nose begins.
If you don't like the satire of Charlie Hebdo, your right is to not read it. If you don't like a comedian who makes pedo jokes, your right is to not buy their tickets. If you don't like a TV show that shows drug use, your right is to not watch it.
That's it. That's the end of your personal rights on that issue. You do NOT have the right to tell other people what they personally view, watch, read, etc...
If enough people share your view, that publication/comedian/show will either change or go out of business naturally because of lack of subscribers. That's how it works.
I personally find Charlie Hebdo to be racist twits. But that doesn't give me any right to kill them. I have the right to just ignore them.
