Kinda revealing of our country right? I prefer our old motto on money. E Pluribus Unum was what it originally said which is Latin for out of many, one. Benjamin Franklin then designed a coin that was "mind your business", and another that said "we are one". Now it's "in god we trust" which as an anti-theist I've gotta say, doesn't fit me at all.

    When you have issues with food people bringing up weight can be a bit of a trigger. Not that it bothers me, it is just a school yard insult. It's just mostly annoying because I used to be fat and I really miss food.

    Know how McD's they have both a real egg vs the flat yellow thin precooked one? In a blind taste test most people prefer the flat one because it's less 'eggy'. I mean strong spices, most people prefer blandness, at least in the US.

    Missed the pronouns, I guess my bad for misgendering. I'm a child of the 90s, male, female, or whatever spectrum you fall on, it's still largely dude and bro in my vernacular. I'll still support you playing sports, and whatever else it is you crazy kids do that you think will make you happy. Just don't expect me to personally participate or pretend to give a shit about pronouns.

    I never said they invented greeting cards. I said they normalized giving them on a variety of holidays that previously were less commonplace for cards. For example the person that created Mother's day fucking HATED Hallmark.

    Who does the president work for? This one? Pretty much anyone that bribes him.

    Nah lol, I was in a motorcycle wreck that damaged my intestines. I genuinely have a hard time getting enough calories due to pain pretty much anytime I eat solid food. So as far as schoolyard insults go, swing and a miss.

    You're certainly a riveting conversationalist. I'll leave you with this. How influential on the design of our very cities has the auto industry and oil industry been? Are our cities designed around using as little fuel as possible, or the exact opposite?

    Pretty good video, love the historically accurate outfits.

    Honestly the Palestinian people have had a pretty raw deal over their history. Egypt, Greece, Rome, the British, and a few I'm sure I have forgotten about have ruled Palestine as a vassal state. I hope they one day are free although it looks like they're all gonna be dead or dispersed like the country my great grandparents came from was.
