The Battle of Baltimore took place during the War of 1812, not the Revolutionary War, and it doesn't really glorify the carnage since the poem is about the American defenders getting their teeth kicked in by the British Navy, but the flag remaining over the fort defending the entrance to the city till the British ran out of ammunition.
Despite that, the anthem still sucks. It was a good poem, but awful as a song. Pledge of allegiance is also absurd.
Absolute rag of a new source, but what’s wrong with the article? They’re discussing how modern people are so used to feeling “full” that they keep constantly eating and snacking, which is usually on unhealthy items and is a sure fire recipe for weight gain, obesity, and a myriad of health issues.
They essentially just say that feeling hungry every once in a while isn’t a death sentence, and that you should just wait for your next meal. Along with recommending to stop gorging on chips, and to try intermittent fasting to help lose weight and avoid mindless snacking.
I feel like this is really stretching it to try and say that they’re telling people to starve.
The world is a genuinely beautiful place. : ) Every country has someplace beautiful, and China has a whole lot of them.
Mfw I pay $10,000-$20,000 in shipping and the custom agent at the border asks me where my tax papers are.
Have you not gotten your daily shipment of 1 million XiBucks?
Ahhh, its the Vietnamese backed state, that makes a lot more sense! I forgot that they had a very similar flag, and from a distance all I saw was "Red flag, yellow peaked building", which threw me for a loop.
Thanks for the clarification!
I got it by pure chance.
I literally just vibe checked everyone I came across, and somehow got it right because I caught a minuscule completely irrelevant slip up when they used the same phrase across 2 accounts.
It was quite fun though!
It’ll probably take a path of “republicans and democrats unite against fascism”, I doubt they will touch on race relations.
I’ll comment where I please, this is a public forum. Who are you to say where someone can post? You’ve been here for 4 days.
Also nice random copy and paste, that is entirely unrelated to what we are talking about, did you even read what you posted?
Politics in general is not commonly on peoples minds. Or they treat it like a sports team they check in on every so often.
Bieng politically knowledgeable and up to date is much more rare then you believe. This goes for China as well, as people just have other things going on in their lives so they don’t bother reading/learning/thinking about politics or communism very much.
Sadly, I would say that far more identity with hardline Chinese nationalism over Marxism, and Marxism is mostly acknowledged because it’s association with the CPC.
This is not true, while the US army is feigning for recruits they are not this desperate. There is a definite age cut off 39 for the Air Force and navy, 28 for the marine corp, and 31 for the army.
The only way to get this old in the military is to be already in it as an officer, NCO, or Warrant officer, and then simply stay, but even then you will be usually forced out at 60-65.
How???
Genuinely? Even if they went absolutely ham and executed a full Stalin 4 year plan mega socialist overhaul of the economy, where would Russia get the extra 4 trillion dollars minimum to take that spot? Implying that none of the current spot holders have their economies grow.
Russia is going to overtake India, Germany, Japan, Brazil, France, and the UK? All of them?
It’s possible but it would take a socialist government over a decade like the Soviet Union did. How does Putin expect to accomplish this?
