First, as I stated in another reply, I've never directly/intentionally purchased it. The times I ate it, it was as a part of some set meal that I got. I ate it rather than let it just be thrown away.
Second, as long as they're not hunting threatened/endangered species, I don't know that there is an argument to be made by someone who already eats animal products.
Generally, the person stating a claim is the one that needs to substantiate that claim. If someone makes a post and then says in their own post "I'm probably not right but I can't be bothered to check yet am still going to post anyway", that strikes me as lazy at best and vain or shady at worst.
Huh, so apparently there is an average or normal amount of dang.
For urban areas where it could potentially work, corruption; classism; NIMBY; poor education about taxes, their uses, and their benefits; and selfishness.
For inter-city, some of the above but also getting the property on which to do it seems to be a huge pain in the ass when looking at projects in Cali or proposals for others such as Texas.
Maine and Nebraska are the notable differences who allot individual electors based on the popular vote within their congressional districts and the overall popular vote. It’s possible there are other exceptions and I’m sure commenters will happily point them out.
I mean, this just says "I didn't research things and you shouldn't take what I say seriously" to me.
I debated because I really disliked another option in there (I think it was split-screen for AI or something stupid) and it felt like it was designed to make me not rank something else I didn't like as least desired.
I never specifically ordered whale. In Japan, there are places you go and get whatever set menu is being served that day. I did, it contained whale, and either I ate it or it went in the trash. As such, I ate it.
I think it was often in school lunches through the early post-war period but was replaced by other things so some boomer era folks are it a lot growing up.
As a former Houston resident, this is exactly what I was thinking, heh.
The US and it's people are often super loud. I say this as one who traveled and now lives in Japan. I didn't notice right away and had to work hard to lower my normal volume
They sell it at my supermarket in northern Japan. I've had it at a restaurant I think twice and it was ok; nothing to write home about but I didn't find it gamey or anything.
I took it to mean "I don't know if this is actually true or not, but I'm going to post it anyway" which is exactly where tons of quickly-spreading misinformation comes from and how it gets passed on.
Specifically, the claim that it's the popular vote overall seems off to me, though I don't currently have time to look into it (I did some quick googling but did not get a conclusive answer). What I mean to say is that, yes, all of the electoral votes are allocated to whomever is considered a winner and it is not proportional (except in two states). I was under the impression, however, that it went by districts so whomever won the most districts got the full share of votes (i.e. not the overall statewide popular vote).
