Fried is not the same thing as unhealthy. It all depends how you fry it.

No. No. No. No. Just no. Not Charlie.

You mean by rejecting my notion of a president's power over the economy? Or do you mean something else that you've imagined?

Love it. That was brilliant. A marketing bonanza, pivot off the election cycle. Remember these entertainers are losing a lot of money with sheltering in place. They need to keep their names out there so the public will spend where they can for them.

If it weren't for leftwing nutjobs like you running these cities into the ground there wouldn't be a need for sending in the feds in the first place.

You're used to 'free' wifi in airports. Lots of metros just have free wifi with no password. Plus people live mostly by routines so even if you do sign up you just need to do it once. I get free ATT wifi in Starbucks all over. I suppose I had to sign up many years ago. I haven't been to Seoul since before the smartphone revolution but I'll bet its pretty seamless.

We didn't ask you crackers to come here to start with.....

Case reports on this every year. Caused by Naegleria fowleri, it goes up the nose, passes through the cribriform plate at the base of the skull which separates the nasal passage from the brain right above. Pretty awful way to get ill Entameoba histolytica causes just dysentery. A lot less fatal although it can cause a liver abscess by invading through the colon directly into the liver. (which is called colloquially an anchovy paste abscess because of its consistency) seen a few of those.

As far as they're applied now, I think the CMOH and Knighthood are different in nature. He doesn't mention the Victoria Cross, which is awarded for valour to military personnel, (or George Cross, the civilian equivalent), which I would have said is a closer equivalent to the MOH.

@Axtremus said in Just wow: Beethoven composed arguably better music after he's gone deaf. Stephen Hawking published arguably better papers after he's lost the ability to write. Isn’t it grand how some people Overcome their challenges.

@Klaus said in A previous cultural revolution: Daniel Hannan has been one of my favorite European politicians in the last decade! He made me, at least in part, a proponent of what he calls "localism". Do you generally follow him or was it just this tweet that raised your attention? I agree, Hannan is someone to listen to. Not only was he very smart when an MEP, but he has also given lectures on American history in the U.S., well worth listening to. It's always sobering when a Brit knows more about Jefferson than most Americans!

@bachophile said in No representation: Did u know that the District of Columbia is a member of the unrpresented nations and peoples organization? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unrepresented_Nations_and_Peoples_Organization?wprov=sfsi1 And they get more practical representation than any city in the world.

Nope. I l just read ones that are linked.

@jon-nyc said in Another measure of reopening: Elon tweeted this. Shows their supercharging station use as a percentage of pre-Covid max. North America just returned to it’s pretty-Covid high. [image: 1593919520093-d03308ec-d792-4477-9261-8f1583762076.jpeg] I am surprised the APAC did not drop very much during the high point of the virus, but maybe the amount of Teslas on the road is quite small.

There's a blood lust on the left, and they recognize their own cultural power. Does anybody think these people will self-limit due to some abstract principles, when they could use their power and violence to impose their virtue on others? Just look at the real life examples of woke people you know and consider that question. This is the human species and it is dangerous.
