Does Femen only recruit hotties? They don't seem to have any non-attractive members.

Once they win even uglies will be confident enough to go topless. This we cannot abide.

Yes, if someone had told me five years ago that the Krarups would be the most influential family in Danish politics I would've run away.

Is there more than one of them currently involved?

Is there more than one of them currently involved?

Krarup the Elder is crusading against the "zionistic communist" Krasnik after he dared to raise questions about Hedegaard and his Muslim-hating friends

His daughter, the one on the board in DR, then got in on that as well. Telling Krasnik he's a shit, or something. (Which breaks the famous "armslængdeprincip", but DF doesn't really care about that anyhow: cue to yesterday where took money from a youth organisation because they disagreed with them)

His other daughter, the MP, is the one who's against the NZ'ers.

This reminds me, keep them in check, please.

I've met all of them, but I was just a kid. I'm from the lefty side of the family, so I doubt they'd listen to me.

I visited Søren's brother - Steen - last time I was in Denmark, but we didn't discuss politics at all. He is all into obscure Danish military history; which is reasonably fascinating

Wise, sometimes politics should just be avoided. I get that too at times in my family.

They say that a person's income will gravitate toward the median of that of the people with whom he regularly associates over time. I wonder if simply moving to a place full of rich people would have a similar effect.

That is the Columbus suburbs.

Why are all the ski areas in Wyoming and Colorado dark green?

I wonder to which extent there is a feedback loop when it comes to income and cost of living, especially in our society where we just service one another.  After all, behind every extra dollar of cost of living, a large portion of that extra dollar is someone else's extra income.

There's one or possibly two redundant words in that sentence.

That would make for an incredibly intense and incredibly short conversation.
