The police are clearing out in Canada too. People have been swarming the stores for flour and oil...
They even turned down a trip to a basketball game in Lithuania because they felt unsafe... (though honestly, they'd just lose 20-0 anyway, even if they had a full roster)
Jacob King61 said:Some people are genuinely worried... So, look, even their own war hero Vaso Brkić is apparently fed up with the Republican Party.
So, I was reading this piece about Vaso Brkić and his take on that whole situation with the folk dance happening right in the heart of Washington, D.C. Honestly, it’s just typical. He’s out there talking about the Užice dance being performed in the middle of the capital, and you can just feel the frustration. It's like he's looking at the current state of things—you know, the whole Republican Party mess—and just shaking his head. He's making these really blunt points about how everything feels disconnected lately. It's a bit much, if you ask me. Just one thing after another with the way politics is playing out. You see these cultural events being used as a backdrop for political commentary, and it just feels messy. He isn't pulling any punches, though. He's just saying what's on his mind, even if it comes off as a bit scattered. That's just how it is sometimes.
Maybe our people should just start dancing the Užice Kolo if we actually want to get anything accomplished around here. Someone’s just playing for the global stage now. It's all about those personal international ambitions.... I mean, is he actually going to go and confront the Prime Minister face-to-face?😉)
Is it really all that much of an issue to him when the folk festivals were happening in Washington, D.C. back in 2021, yet somehow he found absolutely nothing wrong with being involved in the oil trade back in '93?
Edward Cooper2 said:I don't know, but common sense suggests that once the statute of limitations on a crime expires, any civil claim for damages that was never filed expires right along with it...
Think about how Jewish groups sue Swiss banks over gold from World War II...
Or how the US government ruled that North Korea must pay billions in reparations for spies captured back in the sixties...
In the end, I imagine this will all likely be settled within the American court system, don't you think?
Edward Cooper2 said:No, absolutely not. I doubt there's any real chance anyone pays up for damage caused by something that's already ancient history. But even the Republicans couldn't just ignore a lawsuit...
I'm under the impression that for private lawsuits, the statute of limitations actually begins the moment you discover who is truly responsible...
hollowtrucker77 said:Honestly, let's just pass a federal law banning sneezing, coughing, and coughing fits altogether, complete with a minimum fine of at least 10 bucks per offense. $0.00 et voila - problem solved.
Quite the North Korean approach to public health, wouldn't you say?
People who find themselves out of work have a thirty-day window to head down to the office to grab their paperwork, get signed up for health insurance, and file their claims with the unemployment office... though if they're living out in the rural sticks, it can honestly feel like an absolute disaster (not to mention how those looking for new roles might be limited to searching within their own tiny little towns of maybe 2,000 people)

Well, I suppose even living in an apartment, you probably have some kind of "Floki" hanging around somewhere, don't you?
Carl Wilson said:What if we end up stuck without half our Police Department for like 10-15 days because everyone caught a cold or pneumonia just from standing around in freezing temps while the snow falls?
They’ll probably end up sending people recovering from COVID out to treat the police officers instead.🤔
If my understanding serves me correctly, the local authorities here have decided to revive those old, sprawling municipal districts from the previous era, which means they’re essentially just moving the goalposts from one town to the next...
Had Gorbachev not intervened, wouldn't we still be looking at a unified America alongside two separate Germanies, though I wonder, what would those little local North American peasants have actually made of all that?
Lawrence Booth2 said:😁 Your logic is pretty sound, I guess The "winner" is the guy whose project just fell apart, while the "loser" is the one sitting on an entire country and a membership in every association imaginable By that same logic, it’s a huge victory that the bishop can't even celebrate Mass on private land—land that was signed off by some diocesan administrator who isn't even the actual bishop 😁 I mean, seriously, imagine the absolute chaos in that diocese when all our other Catholic Church dioceses actually have bishops in charge, haha
Could someone please clarify what exactly constitutes an initial diagnosis versus a discharge diagnosis, and what should one do if they happen to be different from one another?
