What about “Airplane”? That always gives me confidence when flying

Yes it is. Brazil is so much more than just gang violence or Samba.

At least got a nice Sipi Tua In before our loss...

How did you find the forum @TomJa? Also, belated welcome from the forum’s traditional greeter.

The gang violence this time of year is a big tourist attraction

I like the varieties where my crushes all these Europeans like ants beneath their feet. (And where we don’t lose Uruguay)

True, I’ve heard São Tomé and Principe are especially nice this time of year. Maybe Cape Verde is closer to middle? Or St.Helena? St.Helena weather is just great this time of year. There’s so much to do like look at the ocean, or look at the ocean, or marvel at that one house with internet

We should of asked @heywoodu what his flight number was so that we could follow his flight on one of those live flight maps

To fill in you newbies. @heywoodu dates/is dating? a Brazilian biathlete. He’s been talking about visiting her in Brazil for half a century and now is finally going to. That should help.

It was fun while it lasted

I officially hate XVs. It’s back to 7s for me and

Is it even dinner if there’s no potatoes on my dish? My family really seems to like to show that 25% of our ancestry that’s Irish.

It’d take 10-15 years by most estimates, but the environment stuff could really actually do irreparable damage.

America has generally leaned Center-Right over the last few decades. Studies are beginning to show a national shift towards Center-Left. What’s really interesting is my generation and the millennials. My generation has a 45%-60% favorable opinion of socialism or at least democratic socialism. When combined with the millennials, young Americans vote left, and sometimes pretty far-left, on major issues by about 55-70%. American politics could see some interesting changes over the next decade or so. I love “the squad”, just throwing that out there. They’re all amazing people with amazing stories. I do agree though, that some of they’re policies are questionable. Pelosi will be a goner pretty soon I think. The Democratic Party is moving further left, and old/center speaker won’t do it for us. If Trump gets another four years the damage won be irreparable, and thus a chance for Calexit. I do really hope we don’t go that route though and that the US stabilizes one the next few years, but that looks less likely by the day...

For those unsure of why the US House of Representatives has started the formal impeachment process against US President Donald Trump, here is a brief explanation. Last week multiple news outlets, with the Washington Post supposedly being the first, reported that a “whistleblower” had made a complaint on behalf of US intelligence. (A whistleblower is someone who informs of the government because they see a major, major issue. Edward Snowden is probably the most famous example.) The story continued that the US Department of Justice and the “White House” has stopped the Inspector General from alerting Congress or pursing the matter further. That was pretty much it for the first reports. Well over the last week, more and more information about the complaint has come to light. The biggest issue being centered around two things. 1) Trump asked the Ukrainian President (sorry forgot his name) to dig up dirt on Joe Biden for him, or he’d cut off all US aid to Ukraine. This is obviously a breach of US election law, because again Trump asked an Eastern European government to help him win his election. 2) Trump and his staff then worked to hide the truth before his dumbass lawyer admitted to telling Trump to do it. Every day more and more information comes out about the shady process Trump’s people were doing to try and hide their criminal activity. With all that said, that’s pretty much it. I’ll try to keep explaining the process and give some insights as we go down the road of the process.

No is having a World Championships and possibly an Olympic medal taken away.

is in the process of having that medal go bye bye. The other 2 are good I believe.

Full Announcement for those interested:

Confirmation of suspension. It was that he’d been caught earlier this year or last year. Still unfortunate because that’s only athlete of note realistically...

Yeah that was one of the only problems with the Pan Ams In Lima. I often didn’t feel like summer.

Maybe serious, maybe not. Pelosi’s been super hesitant about it, so the confidence might not be there. It will be a very fun national shitshow either way, so grab so popcorn and see who wins the race to reverse 2016 first, the US or the UK.

Very fair. It’s also super beneficial to keep him in office because he’s a beatable election opponent. Plus, if he’s relected it creates more opportunities for socialists like myself to gain more power in this country. In the end, I’d probably agree with most people that for the greater good of the country it’s better to see him go.

Really don’t understand why they didn’t call the races off today:

Your minds are about to be blown so buckle up everyone... I’m against impeachment. Told you.

No, Qatar should events because they can afford. What they shouldn’t do is use slave labor to host such events.
