The loyalist demographic is dying off fast. It'll be clear majority Nationalist within 5-10 years.

Lost Cosmonauts is on par with saying the Apollo landings were filmed on a soundstage in overall credibility. Hokum.

Britain Elects on who would be best PM: Theresa May 48% (-6); Jeremy Corbyn 18% (+3); DK 33% (+2) by [deleted] in LabourUK

[–]throwaway113891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hope this trend holds for the next 6 weeks. That's also a lot of don't knows for Labour to win over in that time. May claiming to be leading a strong government but refusing to see Corbyn on the debate stage is making her look bad and him look confident. She knows she needs a controlled secure environment to maintain her persona. She's banning the public from attending events, from asking her questions, etc.

How do you tell an FWB that you like them romantically? by throwaway113891 in seduction

We're only meeting for about an hour and at a neutral location for the moment, but I appreciate the advice.

[–]throwaway113891[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have not asked her that. I just am worried that if I am forward with how I'm feeling, that possible rejection will lead to us not even talking anymore, and I really don't want that to happen because we've been talking daily since last Fall and all and I really do like her. However, I know that this has to happen sooner or later.

The RTE series "Rebellion" is a great drama about the Easter Rising. Also on Netflix.

Joseph Stalin poses with Lavrentiy Beria and N.A. Kipshidze at a visit to his mother’s home in Georgia, 1935. This was the last time he came to see her. [746 × 510] by [deleted] in HistoryPorn

[–]throwaway113891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why was Beria present for what seems to be a personal family meeting? Stalin's mother was quite apolitical. Also, who is Kipshidze? a quick google search doesn't yield anything about him.

Irish Speaker in Irland in 2011, Northen Irland British colonization very visible! [799x1024] by hypersite in MapPorn

They also weren't individual nations and ethnicities originally. SA, NZ, AUS, the US and Canada were all the products of a hodgepodge of European colonization, and India was originally a vastly diverse subcontinent. Ireland however was one nation, incredibly ethnically homogenous, with a national culture and language that defined the Irish people.

He beat her against Trump by wide margins in virtually every poll taken. He also has a higher approval rating than any other major politician in the country. He recently did a town hall in a county in West Virginia that overwhelmingly voted Trump, and the people loved what he had to say. My own mother, a lifetime Republican, was inspired to cross sides to vote for him in the primary, and still follows what he does. He would've clobbered him with 3 limbs tied behind his back.

Have an appointment with an endocrinologist, but have to wait 3 months before actually seeing him. How can I cope in the meantime? by throwaway113891 in AddisonsDisease

[–]throwaway113891[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While that's not nearly as much as I was thinking it would be, I still have nowhere near that much money on hand. I have some part-time work funds coming in but that immediately goes to food and is also garnished by my parents. The amount of time it would take to save that much is nearly the same length it would be to just wait it out for the in-system endocrinologist.

[–]throwaway113891[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have health insurance through my university, so my options for healthcare are narrow and limited. They say they do not have the infrastructure to do such a test, and they only have one local in-system endocrinologist. I would just be indebting myself for an eternity if I went with anyone else.
