Removed from Congress? That practically sounds like renouncing your citizenship.
Going to another country to oppose your own country is atypical.
If Christians were like Klingons there’d be a cloned resurrection of Jesus.
11·11 months agoPeople in the USA would probably reword that sentence as “And North America is in the Americas.”
It’s similar to how North and South Dakota are called “The Dakotas,” not “Dakota.”
It definitely matters. Primaries exist. This article is specifically about the primary. He won the Republican primary in 2016 with nearly 75% of the vote.
Also, I’m pretty sure California awards the winner more delegates than any other state.
That frame is probably influenced by this modern belief that Egyptians couldn’t have possibly built the pyramids. I’m going to blame one of my favorite shows/movie: Stargate.
1·11 months agoAt what point does that word lose all meaning?
3·11 months agoI think you’re right about the glasses. At the very least they’re probably better than that frying pan. The more I think about it they might be right under that penny.
I’ll do you one better and rank these instead.
- Lucky Penny
- Caffeinated shoes
- Fatigue masking mask
- Frying pan of flavor
- The cool glasses
- Underwear of febreze
I really wanted to put the caffeinated shoes at number 1, but the lucky Penny sounds OP.
Also, the underwear is an unfortunate item because most people who need it wouldn’t choose it. It’s also the only item that could be simulated with one hour of effort a day (at most) for most people.
If I’m understanding what you wrote, I think you actually are bound to Apple. Most people in the Apple ecosystem aren’t going to leave it, because there’s too much inertia to overcome to leave it.
In theory, yes. In practice, he had to be everything Republicans hated for them to vote against him. I don’t believe his lies or suspicious finances were the problems.
The true things about him that got his party to vote against him were: he’s gay, he’s brown, he’s done drag, his Wikipedia page doesn’t have a birth place.
I think the distinction is right in the wording, you can be shot and not killed. In your Wikipedia link they define a mass shooting as incidents where 2 out of 7 of their sources define it as a mass shooting, but 3 of those outlets don’t require killing to happen at all.
On top of that, in recent memory even the Vermont shooting where 3 Palestinian-Americans were shot it wouldn’t be called a mass shooting by that wiki link because they survived (albeit with severe problems) and it was one person short of the threshold.
That being said, the choice of specifying “killing” is sort of weird for outlets to make. If you shoot someone, your intent or expectation is usually for them to die.
3·1 year agoIn fairness, I assumed you were American too, because you said “we end up with this guy as president”.
Before you get downvoted, here’s a wiki page backing you up.

It’s bizarre for an article to quote her here without the article talking about any examples.
I don’t watch these, but they make a lot of sense. I’ve watched movies sometimes and been disappointed that there are no similar movies for me to watch. If you like a generic Hallmark movie you’ll have infinite content.
The attempt failed. This isn’t really the McCarthy era anymore. Interestingly, that article doesn’t even mention communism.
This source backs up your claim with his alleged words.
