We must form an international popular front that includes dissidents of nations that have fallen to the far right such as the US, Russia, and until recently Hungary.

As an American, that’s basically what I want. I want us to change, reform, and learn to live as a valued member in a community of nations.

Unfortunately the illuminati were just republicans. Not like the political party, they opposed monarchy and were trying to encourage democracy. Their whole thing was trying to trick people into learning illegal political theory by putting it in the form of a secret society so it sounded interesting and mysterious. They also really didn’t last long, turns out kings don’t like it when you suggest not having kings.

They are famously incredibly stupid.

Whelp I’m glad I got rid of the thing before he came to power

Of course it’s Scottish. I’m just shocked the Italians do it too.

Yeah you gotta use usb b, it’s the one that fits into your ear

Good name for a disgusting shithole (Dixie is a nickname for southern part of America that fought a war to maintain slavery)

Same in the Midwestern US

True my Domme does hear better than me

Muff is a classic. But as a classy broad I’m quick to address mine as a cunt

Or maybe he’s just allergic to meth

I’d ask what the fuck, but my ex’s ex husband was basically that guy too lol

Sorry you wound up with such an asshole

Well clearly they wanted to be judged solely by the color of their skin

DC isn’t a state or in one. The original idea was that it wouldn’t be a meaningful permanent residence, but as the federal government grew it became a real major city with a lot of permanent residents.

They have 1 non voting representative, no presence in the senate, and starting in 1961 they’ve had 3 electoral votes for president.

Oh also in 1973 they were granted the right to elect a mayor and city council rather than being directly governed by the federal government. The federal government still has the constitutional power to overrule them and has done so several times.

DC wants statehood, and I generally support it (alongside Puerto Rican statehood), but for DC even just giving them a single senator, true home rule off federal land, voting representatives proportional to population, and the ability to gain electoral votes as population grows would be huge.

It’s on DC license plates

A more stable world is financially beneficial. Allies are strategically beneficial. The eradication and minimization of pests and disease are both.

Exactly. I knew a woman in college who wore hijab. Apparently in high school she didn’t, and her family always treated it as her choice. She chose it because of the racism and anti muslim mistreatment she faced making her embrace it as a fuck you to the mistreatment. It made sense to me, though it saddened me how much harassment she had faced. How she dressed wasn’t my problem, and I was always more focused on the brain under her hijab than the hair.

I dislike such cultural expressions of modesty, and I worry about cultural pressure towards them. They remind me too much of my baptist cousins. But I firmly oppose the government or society intervening in how people dress. So long as every person old enough to choose for themselves is permitted to, my opinions are my problem.

It’s more that banana flavoring is a simple chemical (isoamyl acetate) that when tasted was kinda closer to bananas (and pears apparently) than anything else in their minds. Old bananas had more of it than modern ones, but it isn’t like it was ever a faithful recreation.

It’s similar to how some grapes taste more or less like methyl anthranilate, but the chemical itself really just distinctly tastes like artificial grape.

Also nobody who ever took steroids or testosterone supplements.
