To my ear, the limited Finnish I have heard thus far sounds vaguely like... Russian? :hmm:

I am sure I would get beaten up if I said that aloud in Helsinki. :)

Nowhere near.

What I like about Finnish is that the letters are pronounced almost exactly like in German. :D

I have no idea what they're saying but when I've heard Basque it clearly sounds like a language spoken by Spanish speakers.

Finnish on the other hand :blink:
Let's bomb Russia!

According to Trump, Kamala Harris wasn't born in the US.
Now, where have I heard that before?  :hmm:

Well, to be fair, the Bay Area does have trouble claiming Oakland...but legally, I think they are still actually part of the USA.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

However this turns out, I never again want to hear an American pontificate about "democracy". You guys are at D- right now and at risk of failing entirely.

No one cares what you want, sweetie.

Seems like we should be pontificating more and not less then.

Oh man, I feel so owned. I never saw such a sharp dismissal coming.

That's not something to be proud of.  Everyone else here saw that dismissal coming a mile away.

You're right, it had no originality whatsoever.

And your bleating about American democracy did?  :hmm:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

It's Hamilcar.  Trolls gotta troll.  They don't need to be original to feel so very proud of themselves.  See also:  Donald Trump.
