I will check it out! Any other advice? My family needs out.

Fun fact, Alex said in an interview that this is a picture of him having a panic attack. Just shaking and desperately trying to keep calm as adrenaline pours through his system.

Definitely correct. My brain does not want to interpret 50501 as making anything being maybe a zip code. That's my bad.

I read the comment above as, "Our anti-Nazis are baby stuff compared to during Hitler's rise. They legally organized in Germany and still failed. One day a week protests aren't going to cut it. We need to shut down cities all week, all month, all year until the Nazis in our government are removed."

But hey perspectives I guess.

EDIT: You know what everyone is right. I had to Google it after waking up. I struggle so much with recognizing 50501 as literally anything other than a string of numbers. But the 50501 movement is definitely anti-nazis. And now I read the comment differently. My sentiment still stands but the other person's is more questionable in my brain now.

Edit 2: ~~Our Nazis are baby stuff compared to Hitler shit.~~ --> anti-Nazis are baby stuff compared to during Hitler's rise.

Let's celebrate Canada's mountain West too! I guess I'm not saying this is unique to the US just that it is something that is genuinely worth celebrating. That's actually the question you were asking, what is genuinely good.

There's a lot of bad to focus on. The Rocky Mountains are both gorgeous and worth protecting and the ancestral home of native people that our ancestors murdered in order to claim.

And yet, I think it's cool to actively look for good things, not as a distraction but to try to understand what we want to have more of and what makes something special. Especially with the US feeling unsafe and unstable.

Legitimately, the Mountain West. I am super biased because I grew up in Colorado but I think the Mountain West is something in America that should be truly celebrated. The small mountain towns are incredible. You get roughly 6,000-10,000 people together living in a valley and they decide they want bike paths and rec centers and decent bus service. The towns are small and walkable and there is a lot less sprawl. Property lines might be defined but people are more lax about things and walking past someone's house to get to a trail isn't a terrifying adventure in will they shoot me or not? And then the outdoor space. Everywhere I lived outside of Denver I could walk down the street and be in a National Forest in less than 10 minutes. Some places I could walk off the property and be in a national forest.

It's crazy to live in a big city now and I feel less safe riding my bike to the store despite it being 10x closer. Getting outside and walking is so much easier because there is space that isn't "owned" by anyone. It's freeing for the mind and soul.

There are problems but when I moved away a few years ago even the people on the trump train we're still community members looking to support everyone including gay people, trans people, and women. All the opinions I heard were summed up by, "Well, it's their choice, it don't affect me."

Also don't let go of your "standard drink" stuff on the side of piss. I loved that while I was there. Sure I can guess how much alcohol I've had in the last couple hours by reckoning my 3 or 4 beers had 5%, 6.5%x2, and 8% and this means I'm tipsy. But it's so much easier to understand how drunk I am when it's 1+1.5+1.5+2=6 standard drinks.

It's just a good system despite the many flaws.

My partner just told me a more interesting question and probably your intent was to ask: is Turkey in the European Union? And no, it is not however Turkey has many ties to Europe especially in defense. Much of the EU is part of NATO and many Europe adjacent countries are also party to the treaty. This includes Turkey.

Turkey is also split between Europe and Asia. Most of the country is in Asia. But the country is split in Istanbul by the Bosporus Strait. The European part of Turkey is on the North side of the strait. This gives Turkey a land border with Greece and Bulgaria.

Also, in the past, the Ottoman empire was pretty damn expensive pushing much further North and containing much of what we call Eastern Europe. Modern Czechia, Austria, Croatia, Poland, and Ukraine form the border for the lands claimed by the Ottomans.

Yes, the European part of the country is part of Europe and the rest of the country is in Asia. Source: I listened in middle school.

Then by your reckoning, they're doing pretty well. Colorado has a population of 6 million.

It needs to be in the streets but it's hard to be the first to do it. And where I love I'm not even sure who, what, or where to protest.
