Tiny bit of backstory: I work in Spain so there’s a lot of kissing on the chicks when greeting someone. Spanish people kiss twice, in western countries people kiss 3 times so sometimes there’s a bit of confusion. Anyway, once a girl from Romania met a French co-worker next to my desk. Typical greeting and she says:
How do French people kiss?
The guy got a little bit confused and says:
Trust me, you don’t want me to show you how the French kiss…
Not really related but I found it extremely funny.
Not just that, soon after the US election, the UK will be gearing up for their General Election. Latest is the end of January 2025 according to a quick search.
By all polls and sentiment, it seems like it’s going to be a goddamned bloodbath for the tories. I’m actually kinda pumped, I hope they get everything that’s coming to them.
Maybe if one side wasn’t an openly theocratic fascist party that wants women to be property and anyone who isn’t a straight white Christian to be dead, it would be easier to get along. I’m going to be hostile towards Republicans for the same reason I’d be hostile to someone pointing a gun at me.
Its more a commentary on America’s frighteningly real chance of descending into a Russian sponsored fascist dictatorship. But sure if that scratches your persecution fetish I’m not gonna kink shame you
Individual voters tell their state how to cast the state vote. States vote to elect the president. Our States are more analagous to countries that are members of the EU than, say, the states in Mexico or provinces in Canada. (Not that I’m particularly educated on the government systems of the EU, Mexico, or Canada. If I made a bad comparison please feel free to correct me)
