In post-communist eastern Europe it was common to reinforce the nationalistic sentiment in schools to try and erase the Soviet/Russian influence in case of a posible future separatist movement from within.
Dunno for US, but in some monarchies, the flag was carried around by representatives who delivered the will of the king/queen/emperor/etc. So seeing the flag was the same as seeing the ruler in person. Symbolism I guess.
There is a lot of dead wood in the immediate area.
Edit: so it seems to be a Old House Borer, but it lacks the antennae.
What's its name? I've seen some before, but rarely. Once every few years or so. Thanks
Edit: the likeliest candidate is an Old House Borer without antennae.
Depends on where a person is shot. If it doesn't hit anything important, a shooting victim can go without noticing the wound even a day after or so. If it hits something important, the person shot will drop on the spot.
I did talk. You didn't. This comment of yours.... Zero substance. Not even dumb, just empty.
Nah, it's very subjective. Idealistically patriotism is more like "I want to make the common house everyone on the street lives in more pleasant to live in for everyone."
Realistically it's more like "I want to make my house how I think it should be better. Why doesn't everyone else do the same?"
Each individual has their own idea about what's the patriotic thing to do, even if that ends up to be the wrong thing in someone else's view. That's why I say it's about internal conflicts. Your patriotism and your neighbor's can come at odds with each other in various points. Neither of you might be wrong, but you'll still have to pick something that goes against those beliefs eventually. Better for you, worse for someone else, but pat oneself on the back with the excuse "the good of the many".
What a dumbass take.
The difference is much simpler. Patriotism for internal conflicts, nationalism for external conflicts. Both for manufactured Boogeymen fueled by malicious propaganda.
Oh feck off. Most gyms are mostly predatory money grab schemes.
Better to reduce your sugar intake and focus on physical activity with practical effects. Clean your house, do some gardening, volunteer in the community, play some sport you actually like. Gyms are for losers!
Brand? The fuck is that?! I pick my tea from the wild and sun dry it at home as any proper tea lover would.
Bunch of fukin posers talking about brands n shit...
You should start streaming some old Animal Planet shows. Grooming each other is a big part of social bonding among many different animals.
Also, the second part is because they've seen what you do when you're alone and know you're a perv.
I use it as an ingredient for a biological weapon. The farts are silent and deadly after eating one.
You need a revisit of DS9.
Jem'hadar had their own set of internal rules and even disagreements on how to interpret or execute orders. The drug was used to ensure absolute control because they could evolve in a cultural or spiritual sense.
Randomly read a click bait article the other day on "How famous people died". The older ones were alcohol + drug prescription overdose, while the newer ones were fentanyl + cocaine + alcohol.
Remember people, stay hydrated! Drink your drugs with water like you're meant to!
I know someone working in HR. Can confirm that other managers will litigate just to be petty because it's not their own money they're spending.
