Looks like 66% liked the gifts.

So maybe they’re not even burying someone. Maybe they are just burying a bag of dirt. Or a coffin-shaped matryoshka doll.

So your wife poops are shaped like you? o.O

I agree, the us’ imperialism is driven by a lot more than just a few individuals at the top. The ‘aesthetics’ would likely have kept a lot more allies on board. But the biggest change I see is how the powers driving the country are not only hurting a lot of people outside of the US (which goes for most developed countries), but is also more and more hurting people inside the US (similar to oppression in autocratic countries).

As far as the war in Iran goes I’m not so sure, if Democrats would have continuously stayed in power, the deal would most likely be up. But then the defense industry would still push for war somewhere else, so who knows what the world would have looked like. I’m not convinced it would look better.

I guess the countries sceptical or hostile back than didn’t really have much reason to change their mind about us. But Trump sure did a lot of damage to the relationship with befriended countries, guess all he has left are strategic allies with a similar world view. But I guess that’s what autocrats want after all. Who needs friends if you’ve got power. But for me personally, even though my view on american people didn’t change much my desire to support them definitely increased. If i were to meet someone from the US tomorrow that person would likely get a better treatment from me than if I had met him a few years ago. Not that i feel sorry for them or anything, but i just am really glad im not in their shoes. Had a colleague from Russia years ago, who left a hostile nation behind. Think I’d feel similarly for someone migrating from the US.

Cool, good luck. I guess there is a lot of money there, hope you load up lol

I believe there are lot of Pakistani in the UK, which might help if you don’t know anybody but i don’t know if the Brits would welcome you much warmer than americans would. But those are just assumptions based on stereotypes, you might up being received with open arms. Canada and NZ seem to me like the more exotic choice, but might also make it harder to find a job and meet new people. Though choice for sure.

“[…] four [countries] contributed troops to the invasion force (the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and Poland). An additional 37 countries provided some number of troops to support military operations after the invasion was complete.” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_of_the_willing_(Iraq_War))

Far far less for sure. Although are quite some far right leaders in Europe right now. Perhaps Hungary and Italy are on their way already.

A decapitating strike to the regime of Iran also seems fair. Maybe not according to international law but my moral compass says it’d be a win for humanity.

China also has relations with Israel, they will most likely try and remain neutral (or at least try to look that way) just like they’re (acting as if they’re) neutral in the war in Ukraine.

In history class i regularly heard about people leaving warmongering countries, not as refugees but as economic migrants. I don’t know your personal situation, but this is a friendly reminder it is possible you end up regretting you stayed. There might not be a better time to leave.

Officially we’ll only be able to call that afterwards, during the cold war ww3 also almost begun. We should still try stop and prevent it, no matter how difficult it to argue it hasn’t begun yet.

Ikr, it’s like puncing someone in the face and then telling that person now is the moment to stop fighting lol

If i were to move according to those requirements, purely based on weather and scenery i’d definitely be NZ but it’s a bit remote unfortunately. Purely based on affordability it’d be India, maybe Pakistan but it’s as safe there. Same for NZ. Canada seems to have amazing nature, but it’s cold there. UK would be great if it didn’t rain as much. Only English speaking country i wouldn’t consider to move to is US, yikes.

Where i live we have a pride year.

Although not the whole country. Not the whole city either, nor the whole neighboorhood actually. Not even the whole building unfortunately. But where i live it’s pride 4 seasons a year :))

Australia seems like a really nice place to live, but some of their animals omg

I don’t disagree, and this is a fail from the side of the french government. But at the same time, ‘large company diverting money put aside for marketing to safer roads’ is actually good news if you ask me.

According to BETC, Paris, rubber speed bumps have been banned in France since 2009 due to their slippery surface during heavy rain. Despite this, they are still largely used in France as small municipalities lack the financial resources necessary to upgrade them.

Alongside the agency, French car brand Citroën is offering to substitute France’s outdated speed bumps with safer branded alternatives – the cost of which is equivalent to a billboard ad. The Bumpboards, white with a logo and tagline, are installed in partnership with local authorities in full respect of all regulations in place.

Ms Skillicorn said she could scarcely believe the distance covered by her pet, which was now set to be “grounded for life” after the family go to collect her next week.

Not really good news for the cat though :( /s

Keep sharing them, cause I like the trapdoor solution a lot more than a complex road sign ;)

There was this study (not car related) on how well fines work, turns out if they are an absolute value (like in most cases) that is relatively low to ones wealth, a lot of people stop caring. Also, people are much more likely to break the law if they believe there is a high chance of getting away with it. So just having a sign might fix nothing, if the people to do not fear the penalty enough
