It's pretty easy to understand if you consider that black americans were brought into the country as slaves, wealth is generally inherited (even if just through socialization, connections etc. and not actual inheritance), and americans and the american state continue to be both racist and classist. Even if black people were treated as equals nowadays (which they are not), they would stay disadvantaged due to the US's lack of social mobility.
What about products from companies that are owned by US companies, though? e.g. Kraft, Mondelez. They own a lot of regional brands, such as Germany's Milka.
Can't deny that there's a really big difference between late 60s rock and 40/50 rock, though - it's not really wrong to consider it a new genre, even if it appropriates the name of the older genre.
I always thought that a lot of singers in bands who write their own music and often play an instrument at the same time should focus more. Even in bands that write their own music, it's not necessarily the singer who writes their lyrics, melodies and chords.
"writing and composing" is a bit broad, anyway. Do you exclusively do covers of other people's songs where you copy the original singer exactly? If so, cool, that's pretty hard to do well! If not, you're writing/composing/improvising vocal parts, and that's a skill, too.
I'd assume that most governments (other than the US) don't have easy access even if E2EE in WhatsApp etc. is a sham - these companies are definitely intent on keeping the pretense up, and smaller countries aren't able to disprove it.
Eugenics can sound pretty appealing until you take a moment to really think about it and aren't the type to just be okay with whatever suffering you may cause in the name of the "greater good".
And making it illegal to have children with close relatives is a form of eugenics, i.e. it's still practiced and widely accepted in most western countries.
I don't do great with beer or wine, increases my digestive issues. Otherwise I'd totally try my hand at an English bitter or something like that, British beers are nearly impossible to get here (at best pale ales or IPAs, which I hate) and I don't like the local styles.
That reminds me of the box of half-broken Game Boys from back when I got really into chiptune ... I kinda get backpain from soldering, though, any tips on that? Other than "go see a doctor", of course.
