South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song for “Blame Canada”. The creaters, Matt Parker and Trey Stone decided that, “It’s a magical night tonight.”...
They have admitted when they were wrong in the past.
All the previous presidents were characters in South Park. Clinton, Bush, Obama…all represented as themselves.
Trump is represented by the most racist character in South Park who is otherwise famous for being fucked up gay trans trans and lesbian transtrans and gay whatever the heck he is now.
It just sort of happened that way, but there hasn’t been a precedent for this.
I don’t know if they’re still doing the “both sides” thing, but they might’ve stopped at some point.
Not that they won’t make fun of people on the political left, but they might have gotten over the political fence sitting.
Lifetime sales? And as a notable book, probably one that was gifted often or bought to “decorate” shelves.
Maybe people used to read the book, but it feels like the people saying “Literally 1984” haven’t read the book, they just know that it’s how the world would be if [insert political party here] had their way in the government for too many years, which is a bad thing.
(And yes, of course the world being like 1984 would be bad, but I think that’s the limit of a lot of people’s understanding of the book, lol)
I’m not sure which quotation marks specifically you’re referring to, but in newspapers, they’re used to indicate exact quotes. They’re not used the way they usually are on the internet, such as to indicate sarcasm or “alternate word choices”.
Yeah, this is not the best question because you’ll get very different answers from different parts of the world, or even different parts of the US.
I graduated more than a decade ago, and there was a lot more nuance than what you described. They taught us about different types of drugs and what their real effects were. I remember learning in high school that marijuana is less dangerous than cigarettes and alcohol.
In elementary school for me, there were big anti-smoking campaigns, but nothing about alcohol or harder drugs. The “just say no” was about peer pressure and doing anything you felt uncomfortable doing (including inappropriate touching).
Seriously. I don’t want to install something on my phone when the dev is just using a WebView, if that’s what it’s called. When the app is basically just a website with the browser hidden....
OP is talking about apps that are basically links to websites.
They design the website entirely, but it’s not available through a web browser – only the app. But fundamentally, it’s a website that a browser would be able to run.
I’m looking for a vacuum robot preferably under 500€ and with a cleaning station. My main concern is that most robot vacuum providers seem to need to be connected to the internet. Are there any providers that either don’t need that, where I can block the internet connection or any other way not getting a spy in my home?...
The multi-billionaire would probably already know how to more efficiently use the money though, making their millions of political spending stretch much further.
You’d be competing against multi-billionaires and huge corporations. It wouldn’t be enough, even though it’s a ridiculous amount of money for one person.
Changing the US would probably be impossible. Maybe changing your state would be possible. Changing your local community would be much more realistic.
Helping people get homes and food would likely help reduce crime.
Helping people get educations would help some people escape certain situations.
If you’re fixed on changing the US political situation and you think there’s a party that can change the situation, you can go with political donations. I believe whichever party spends the most money on their campaign is the one that wins more often than not.
They have their uses. In the Canadian version of r/BuildAPCsale or whatever it’s called, it’s great – get the information about the sale and a link to the product.
In r/relationships, and the entire post and discussion are about OP’s problem, they’re completely useless.

Some people actually use social media to learn or practice another language, so some may appreciate the tip and the correction.
As well, it just looks better when content is written properly. If the questions here were all stuff like “how is babby formed wen women is pragnant”, it wouldn’t seem like the kind of community made for people who are genuinely trying to find answers to their questions.
