I would say patriotism is when you love the ideas a nation is built on and stands for, while nationalism is when you love the people and history of a nation.

As a european it's very hard to love the former, since we've been here for more than a thousand years meaning whatever ideas our forefathers might have had in mind are rightfully gone now. However over this time we developed our own culture and became a nation of people which we can love instead.

Nationalism doesn't have to be toxic as it's often depicted, if someone belives their nation is "better" that's called chauvinism. Nationalism is just when you feel your nation is special for you at least and that makes you want to better it.

Look guys, not looking for a fight here, but maybe just don't tell the people who are already in somewhat of a war with vegans to go and eat literal grass 😅

But lukewarm and mid isn't.

For a moment I thought this was the google chrome logo's evolution.

Bowties are cool.

I'm from Europe (Hungary) and I watched the first 20 minutes of the debate (with the intent of finishing the whole thing in one go) before turning it off while basically being on the brink of crying. The US presidents basically have as much say in my life as my own government (if not more) and even though I can't vote for them, if I had to I'd be lost. Because it's not that one is old and the other is crazy it's a freaking Venn diagram of crazy RFK jr., demented Biden and then of course crazy and demented Trump. Seeing the debate and how these people basically can't put two sentences after each other without breaking up is terrifying. And one of them will be voted into the most important office on the planet.

I mean it's shit over here. We can choose between a guy who already stole half of our country, someone whose messy divorce somehow made him the most important member of the opposition and this other guy who stole the other half of the country before the current dude did. (And that's just the tip of the iceberg). But maaan are we a lot better off than the world's greatest country where two unsupervised parties get to point at the people you can vote into this ridiculously powerful position. And then they pick these guys.

We're all going to die and I can't even vote for whoever gets us killed, which is ultimately for the better. This way I can die with a clear conscience.

I don't see how someone couldn't make you forget something and then remind you at the time they deem is right. I mean the point of this image is the mystery and I think that would be myterious enough.

Just watched that episode for the first time and somehow it didn't even occur to me

I hear that's been an issue of debate in the Vatican since around the 70s and one of the cardinals is very keen on summoning a council to settle it.

I don't know how to read that, so just take my upvote and pray we don't meet again.

Here in europe both are taught in elementary school.

Edit: spelling

This is a pradox though. If the scientist succeeded then the machine isn't really using sarcasm and if they haven't then it's lying.

Shouldn't a woman and a man with the same height, weight, and body-muscle percentage be basically identical in terms of athleticism or am I wrong?

I mean, that's what happens in the episode with the theatre.

Isn't that what a password-manager should solve?

The fact that my first reaction to this was shouting "fuck you" internally probably just reenforces the idea that short people get aggressive about their height.

I like this. It's not really helpful in the sense that it seems almost as hard as being perfect yourself, but nonetheless it's possible, contrary to the alternative.

ruuuude

Don't get fooled, that's called stockholm syndrome.
