It's not a correction though, it's misplaced pedantry. The modern definition does not match the roman practice.

That's not a common thing at protests, it's more likely to be a rubbish bin

For just the appeal I don't think anyone would need to rush anything to have it done before 2027, if it goes to cassation and beyond it probably would need to be rushed somehow for it to happen before 2027

If by recent years, you mean the last 20+ years, sure.

I'm not sure it truly hurts the Front National chances in 2027, however, the expected heir, Jordan Bardella, is not nearly as smart as MLP, so maybe it will make enough of a difference if it ends up a close thing. I would say the political situation in France is pretty volatile, hard to say what it will look like in 2 years.

There is also the possibility (slim, imho, but still real) of MLP either winning her appeal (which should take place sometime in 2026), or at least having the ineligibility sanction removed, which I think would give her a huge boost.

You don't have to go to Washington DC to protest, though, there are more than enough metropolitan areas with large populations in the US who could have their own massive protests, but they (currently) don't. Hopefully you are right and people just need more time to organize, but I'm not persuaded yet

Sudden crowd movements are a real impact with potentially deadly consequences, panic is not something to be dismissed

I don't know how it is in the USA, but here biologist graduates are mostly women, so I think the implication is that she was being called a biologist (who can't design experiments) because she's a woman

Why is volume a fair discount? Should a single person pay more for their groceries than a family?

According to the author, something like an apple IIc if I remember the post word in my edition correctly

Icelanders really like their ice cream, whatever the weather is

He's consistently been the president of the wealthy, he could have chosen to make wealthy pensioners take some of the financial burden but decided to put it all on the working population.

He also deleted a wealth tax, consistently slashed benefits for unemployment and social minimums.

On a personal level, he's had too many dealings with quite a few people implicated in criminal scandals (Sarkozy, notably) to be clean.

All that to say, I can appreciate his talks about Europe, but he's not been a good president for the french workers, and it's likely to lead to the far right being in control in a couple years, which could be a disaster for said European project.

Hopefully this leads to actual performance increases for gameplay

 

After having not played for about 10 years, I went and did a few runs of my old reliable, gargoyle fighter, with a couple runs going to 5 runes before my discipline failed them. What are some fun new combos to try out? I used to enjoy high elves sword&sorcery but I see that this race is gone, anything that would fill that kind of fantasy?
