I don't really think he looks that strange. We come in all sorts of shapes and sizes.

Is there any way to get blood tests done in the United States without it going into your permanent record? I'm working on leaving the us within months and I know poor health can cause governments to reject immigration applications. I have been healthy so far, but I don't want to ignore any signs of something possibly creeping up on me.

They are very high yes, partly because they have climbed 25~50% in recent years. I cook most of our food for 3.5 people, shopping at the least expensive store in the area, making a wide range of things but mostly mid to lower cost ingredients. Eat out about once a week, never high priced places. Typically spend around 800/mo.

Yes they are. They are working exactly as the people in charge want them to. They want a weak dollar and low interest rates because it allows them to get smaller debt payments, and a weak dollar/inflation makes the numbers go up. It's a risky game though, because demonetization could mean a worthless dollar and a destroyed economy. But again, I wouldn't be surprised if they want that to because then they can strip it all for parts and sell it off to our enemies. As long as they get richer they don't give a shit. They will just convert any currency to whatever new safe haven and continue on.

Noem didn't do a single thing Trump wouldn't have encouraged. Fetterman voted for all of it. It's all lame excuses and scape goating like they always do.

It seems likely to me he/ dems know this will tip off a civil war and they are still hoping to find a different way of dealing with this. Something less bloody. No decent person wants to make the choice that is the final straw before thousands die. Also, even if they recognize it to be inevitable it is necessary to wait until the masses are aligned. The way you-and all the rest of us- are getting fed up is a sign the fruit is almost ripe.

Or they could just be compromised cowards. It doesn't really matter actually, at some point the tide will flood the city streets and then someone will show up to lead.

The past is not always an indication of the future. Things change and the pressure is building. Germans didn't resist like this, did they? Hong kong did, but they were only one city in a country that already had an iron grip. So far they are using a mix from several previous fascist takeover playbooks. They will keep doing so. Read up now while the internet still has information on what works. Aquire a traffic cone and umbrella to keep handy, keep sunglasses or safety goggles and a whistle handy. Get your own bear spray with a holster. Connect with people.

This is more like a teen who is working towards independence. You may just be a troll, but I will elaborate a tiny bit. Surely you understand a country needs infrastructure, trade relationships and something to trade, and enough population, structure and industry to support these endeavors. Greenland is still developing these necessities. Like a parent Denmark is supporting and protecting teen Greenland while this process continues.

Ahmed (hero #1) put the gun down almost immediately after wresting it from shooter #1, then got shot by shooter #2. Still was probably best he didn't hold onto it as police were moving in, as hero #2 quickly found out. But let's not miss the fact the public fought back en mass as they went after him thinking he was a shooter. That's some good stuff.

I used to be able to smell ants and hear electricity. My senses aren't as keen as they used to be though.
