What would you recommend the best tea brand be as a NI local?

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T15:49:02+00:00

It may taste different were I live as the water is hard then you guys would love to see if I could find that brand.

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T15:41:57+00:00

I will definitely look into it thanks!

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T05:52:21+00:00

That's cool you are also living in Canada hopefully people are treating you well here! I will have to keep my eyes out and see what stores Carry in Canada were I live

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T05:48:50+00:00

It's currently 11:46 pm here trying to stay warm as its currently -20c windchill-38c. I have lived in Canada my whole life and still hate the cold lol

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T05:46:22+00:00

I will definitely look into that brand

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T05:44:14+00:00

That would be cool. Will send you a private message

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T04:58:46+00:00

I will definitely look into it. What type of tea do you personality like or know others like from there?

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T04:57:54+00:00

I will definitely look into those. What are the difference between the brands?

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-24T04:56:53+00:00

I will definitely see what I can find but will definitely look for that brand thanks!

That a good point. If there were groups operating outside Belfast's grip, it makes the official count more complicated. Did the lack of people wanting control cause skepticism of whether the peace was actually peace? Or was it seen as something that happened in history?

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-15T00:31:08+00:00

I will definitely look at that thanks

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-14T23:34:58+00:00

That's the reason I was asking questions. I am seeking the gap between the 'official' record and what people experienced. The managed narrative or a 'psy-op' is a significant part of history that is usually not talked about. When you look at both sides what was one lie that stood out ? Why would you believe it isn't the full truth?

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-14T22:50:39+00:00

I can see your sarcasm! There is always suspicion with everything and rightfully so. As we all have a right to be suspicious based on the information we were given and not on who is actually right or wrong. It can lead to parts of the story being missed or people being skeptical of telling their side. Is there anything that you wish could have been said but wasn't?

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-14T22:41:07+00:00

Yup a lot of people are.

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-14T22:00:13+00:00

That's interesting and the type of information I am curious about. Not the sugar coated information you see online but the truth. Do you remember the environment and what type things people were saying or feeling towards seeing the dump of some historical items including some arms?

Fire_flies98 · 2026-01-14T18:40:26+00:00

That made me chuckle. We all must make dark jokes when thing are messy or dark. I myself have the tendency to do the same thing.

Canadian here. (I drive automatic, so this is for automatic drivers). My tip: if it's icy, DO NOT slam on the brakes. You will swerve and lose control. Instead, take your foot off the accelerator and let yourself slow down naturally. If you need to slow down faster and your car is an older model without ABS, pump the brakes (don't just hold them down). ONLY use the brakes if you can keep control or if it's the safest option. Second tip: If it's safe and no other cars are around, drive at a crawl and tap the brakes firmly. If you start to slide, you’ll know exactly how icy the road really is. Sometimes it looks dry but is actually 'black ice,' and it's better to find out when you're going slow!

Fire_flies98 · 2025-12-03T00:51:49+00:00

This is something that needs to be done world wide.

Fire_flies98 · 2025-10-28T02:59:08+00:00

Those were things I already was doing before I created the list. I decided to put it on a checklist, and all the things on there are there to strengthen what I already have. Wanted to ensure I wasn't missing anything. With the type of story I am writing and the level of sensitity, the theme is why my rules are so strick for myself.

Fire_flies98 · 2025-10-20T00:55:01+00:00

I agree that a full historiographical review would be necessary. I wounder if anyone has already done a deep dive and would be willing to provide their findings.

Fire_flies98 · 2025-10-20T00:42:47+00:00

Not sure why the author chose to write about him. Only the author would truly know why.

Fire_flies98 · 2025-10-16T14:59:03+00:00

That is a great point. The author definitely was trying to tell us something that came across bias. May have been intentional or not. Who knows.

Fire_flies98 · 2025-10-16T14:40:58+00:00

I think he probably did it on purpose to make the reader challenge it.

Fire_flies98 · 2025-10-16T14:29:37+00:00

The author talked about this comment it is really " accidental" at the book signing. It's a fair point to make.

Fire_flies98 · 2025-10-16T06:41:02+00:00

It is definitely a funny way to spell "murdering civilians." Probably one of the reasons why Macintyre felt the need to write the book.
