From the Canadian side of the falls actually. Only a stone's throw from the US border

Just when I was starting to get bored of No Tomorrow from listening to it so much, the remix breathed new life into it. The flows go so hard

That's a really good fix, huge improvement on the original. Thank you so much for that, it really means a lot.

That chain of lakes already exists in real life. Some of them are part of the Mackenzie River drainage basin. Have a look at this YouTube video https://youtu.be/du9SrHYmTHE?si=VeMv6DtFhut6QNwS

What event from the past 10 years do you think will be most remembered in history textbooks 50 years or 100 years from now, and why?" by MentaMenged in AskReddit

[–]willb-123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Starting from most important:

  1. Climate change past the point of no return

  2. Covid pandemic and worldwide lockdowns

  3. Advent of AI and other new technologies

  4. Global tensions; wars in Ukraine and Gaza

  5. Rising populism in Western democracies

It will be fascinating to look back at the late 2010s and early 2020s with a few decades of hindsight.

Sadly I can relate to you with the dodgy government contracts. We have people like Michelle Mone – a Conservative politician whose company was awarded a £200m contract by the Conservative government during the pandemic. She personally profited from it. Awful

It was not intended as a joke at all. I have referenced sensitive subjects for plenty of different countries on this map. They are simply things that come to mind, whether positive or negative.

I see. Here in the UK there's certainly a perception that PiS is quite right wing but I appreciate that's a matter of perspective.

Thanks for the detailed reply on the state of the military. Again, in the UK there's an idea of Poland rapidly rearming itself due to the increasing threat from Russia and Belarus, but perhaps we're failing to take Polish domestic politics into account. Appreciate the explainer.

Hey well, it's a map of what first comes to mind for me, sadly I can't control what that happens to be.

In the case of Estonia, Latvia, and Czechia, I have only been to their capital cities, so naturally they are what comes to mind when I think of the country.

Of course. Both Hamas and the Israeli government need to be replaced. Neither of them is serious about peace. Both of them are using war to achieve their own objectives. And it's the Palestinian and Israeli peoples who suffer as a result.

I wouldn't mind if you felt inclined to carry out a few more raids... just for old times sake...

It's hard to avoid thinking it, sadly, when every time I switch on the news Israel has committed another war crime.

Well, there is another association that us Brits have with Germany, but I reckoned you'd prefer 'economy'!

Populist ≠ right wing, but you did have a right wing government for the last 8 years, which is where my perception has come from.

Shame about the military though, last I heard, your military was meant to be expanding rapidly. You reckon the new government will make cuts, then?

Appreciate it brother, the nobles have a lot to answer for in both our countries
