I wouldn’t say cheap, that puzzle box is at least 1€.

He has to be desperate for a new “supplier” after his BFF Epstein was suicided, maybe he’s thinking these morons fit the bill.

By all the same arguments that you could invoke to justify British colonization in the first place, assuming you’re not going for bullshit like “god gave our King that holy right”.

What no, I’m talking of the 1830s. The British came back and expelled the Argentinian settlement, and settled back in.

They came back because the Argentinians occupied it.

I see two different reasons for a claim for Argentina: that they settled when there was no permanent occupation, like the French and the British did originally, and that they inherited Spain’s claim (who purchased the French settlement) following their independence from Spain.

My post was mostly going for humour, but if we’re looking at it a bit seriously, England’s claim is a colonial one, a legacy from a bygone era. They will inevitably have to cede the islands.

Yes it did. Argentina’s “Venticinco de Mayo” revolution in 1810 made it independent, though a formal declaration happened only in 1816 (technically “the United provinces of the Rio del la Plata”, that’s being nitpicky).

Let’s recap islands history:

Deserted, no permanent population.

French set up a settlement.

English makes another, fight the French.

Spain buys French port, fights British.

Britain leaves.

Spain leaves.

Deserted, no permanent population.

Argentina sets up a settlement.

England comes back, fight them off.

Conclusion: “rightfully British”? The law seems to be whoever smacks the other in the teeth and takes it by force, so I suppose that’s accurate.

However, having had a settlement in the island, Argentina’s claim is as valid as the UKs, and they just got smacked in the teeth so my verdict is that Argentina takes over administrative control over the Islands up until such time as they meet again in a world cup.

You’re looking kinda immigrant to me. Here, come with us so you’re not seen again for the next 6 months, if ever.

Yes, Israel is playing build-a-Reich and America is paying for it.

However, that’s not the reason why Americans are struggling - monstrous income inequality and zero social policies are the main ones.

Go out and vote out every incumbent bloodsucker out in primaries, like in the recent NY primaries.

Keep it up for 6 years, and it will cause a literal revolution in America.

America QoL is fucked not because they’re paying for others, but because of inequality.

In the US, GDP per working person (or, how much money each worker generates) is well over $150k.

Wages are less than half that, on average.

👏

Its time for the autopsy report to shine some light on that taint.

Oh well never met one, and from the little I know they can vary somewhere between late middle ages pilgrims up to the run of the mill religious person with a weird hat.

Instructions unclear, I now have an erection and a browser tab with badly translated Chinese characters.

Have you considered some graffiti?

The guy playing this is triggering me, is it their first time playing Mario?

Other than that, I wonder if Nintendo would have become less of a douchebag company if they released more on PC, or it was inevitable.

Yeah but it’s like 9/11, all it will do is allow even crazier nutjobs to feel vindicated and make things even worse.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

In what way? I assume they must have been familiar with how it worked, or was it like performing a magic trick?

It’s pretty obvious that the goal was specifically to allow Carroll to sue Trump

No, it is not, and it’s revolting to me that you’d think that. More than 3000 suits were filed in 1 year under the Adult Survivors Act, are all those “happy little accidents”, or do those people mean nothing and you only care about that one case?

Also, you’re omitting the broader context of the ASA: New York’s had a 3 year statute of limitations for civil suits for sexual assault, and they changed it to 20 years.

This was not retroactive, however, so the ASA was passed to allow alleged victims to bring up their cases.

If you’re gonna be picking nits, then at least commit to it.

Trump was found legally liable for sexual assault (and defamation). This is a civil verdict, and it means that the jury found it more likely than not that these things happened. The judge also clarified that the jury’s finding meets the “common, everyday definition of rape”, so while it doesn’t meet the highly specific statutory requirements of New York (which required penile penetration), it is rape.

There was no criminal case, however, and the word “convicted” is specifically used for criminal trials, so it can’t be used here.
The bar is also different: the criminal standard is “beyond reasonable doubt”, while for a civil case it’s “preponderance of evidence” (ie, more likely than not).

I don’t think anyone doubts it happened, but a criminal trial can be gruelling and ultimately lead to nothing. At least she got some vindication, even if it falls short of locking that disgusting scumbag for good.
