Wrestling has a significant presence in Central America, Japan, and Europe. Presumably other regions as well but I really don't follow the sport so my experience is all second-hand.

Scotch is probably the wrong flavor profile for a sour, but I firnly believe that cocktails are always better with good liquor. Even a rum and coke, use the best rum you can afford.

Hahahaha.

We invaded it during the Spanish-American war to "liberate" Cuba (remove competing colonial power from our neighborhood) and set up a permanent Naval base there "for their protection." We then pushed them into an infinite contract for two thousand dollars a year. That price has since gone up: as of 1974 we have been giving then FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS PER YEAR, a pittance that the post-revolutionary government of Cuba refuses out of principle.

It is stolen. Human Rights Violation Land isn't the only purpose, it's also to punish Cuba for ever daring to defy us.

Fuck. This. Country.

That's the neat part, we stole it and refuse to give it back because it's very important to have a permanent torture prison where laws don't apply.

Fuck this country.

I'm surprised there's not a bigger anti-Christian movement among the various colonized cultures, to be honest.

Never go to a second location.

They've been morally unacceptable since day 1.

Good luck, I'm behind seven proxies

Amphibians are the weirdest vertebrates.

Make it with powdered eggs and American bacon to capture the pure, traditional heritage of the dish.

Fish is a polyphyletic group. It's a shorthand to refer to various lines of aquatic vertebrates with a similar anatomy. It's not a clade but that's not the only way to logically group organisms. People trot it out like a "gotcha" or just misuse it in much the same way they don't understand speciation (or most science terminology, to be frank)

We are not fish by anyone's honest definition, but "there's no such thing as a fish" is the kind of attention-grabbing false revelation I hate: it's the headline with none of the understanding to actually learn something.

(I'm not annoyed at you, I think you understand perfectly based on your wording)

Most invertebrates have no internal air sac breathing organ. Arachnids kinda do, and I'm seeing something about semi-aquatic snails, but direct diffusion is pretty efficient at that scale.

I wouldn't vote for a politician that appealed to everyone because that would mean they did things I fond reprehensible.

I solve this by having larger portions less frequently.

Most of my boxes are cat scratchers. Some of them are to paint on. A couple are in a closet in case I have to return the expensive thing that it housed.

Some quick napkin math tells me a Boeing 767 gets about 7.8 miles per gallon. This is for longer flights thay can spend more time at cruising speed and altitude, short flights are way worse. Travel over 1500 miles (2500km) is a big efficiency jump. Compares favorably to a cross-country road trip.

It's still far worse than ground-based mass transit but the time factor is hard to ignore. The world needs more high-speed rail.

Anything that showed up on Family Guy is a certified normie meme.

And it's a great album to this day.

Are you a tetrachromat?

I meant Vault, it was essentially Mountain Dew with 50% more caffeine.
