| But then Trump commandeered the GOP and took it in a nativist, xenophobic, racists, and isolationist, direction. And he still rules the GOP. So...no changing direction soon...even if all the other of their candidates can see that it is taking them off a cliff. Ironically, Trump has pulled record nu... |

| I probably wouldn't be too stoked on it. War just ended, Great Depression and more war are coming. Rough time. I'd probably be a little choked at the lack of technology/engineering & designs of modern things.. especially vehicles and sporting goods. If I talked about the things that would come t... |

| Ok I'm not American but quite clearly the former US war on drugs focused on US distributors and Columbian cartels. So how come Mexican cartels were given a free pass back in the 1990s and 2000s? Because the wealthy elite in the USA are a bunch of drug users themselves. They can't just go cut off th... |

| Because it plays very well with racist voters to blame the brown people from across the Southern border than it does to point the finger at Americans' demand for hard drugs. Why would an American politician ask Americans to self reflect on their drug use and maybe make an effort to fix their own pro... |

| Politicians and politics in general are slimier than an 80 lb. garden slug with a head cold. :lol: I don't get this modern day political mania at all. And yet I'm the one with weird obsessions? As much as these whack jobs don't deserve peoples' attention.. people can't ignore them because these nut... |

| We have a big bottle of pink gin in our cupboard but I'm scared to try it because I've never had gin. It's my daughters. :? Seems a bit strange to have never had gin before. There are many variations in flavourings, but most have common ingredients so are similar. But there are certainly many made ... |

| Very cool story. Pretty wild how much has changed in less than 70 years - which is now less than one average human lifespan. It's wild the lengths a man had to go to to sail between islands.. the time, risk, skill, energy - everything - and then it was a True accomplishment, celebrated by people for... |

| Is she anorexic? Or just distracted and not prioritizing eating at all? Maybe weed is the way to go.. stimulate an appetite - she'll remember to eat if she's got the munchies. |

| Do people still buy rounds when they go to the pub or is that an outdated tradition now? Typically only for their table/friend group, not for the bar. At $10-15 per drink it’s a fast way to spend a Lot of money. I think inflation and the erosion of disposable income/purchasing power has been the bi... |

| finally got my hands on some Budweiser. it's pretty bland. i could see some appeal if it was cheap, but i paid $7.5 for one beer. It’s one of the least flavourful beers in the world. It’s fine cold, not the greatest at room temp. It’s nice that it’s made of rice and therefor gluten free for people ... |
