At one time, this house sat at the center of a large citrus and cattle farm in North Florida. As time went on, things changed and farming shifted, causing members of the family moved to larger towns to look for work. This home was left behind.

INCORRECT. The point of travel is to see different forest types and the exceptional trees found therein. What do you mean New Caledonia isn't a tourist mecca, are you implying that French isn't a major international language just because literally everyone wants to travel to Based Conifer Island?

Probably many wealthy American tourists who visit Europe would get at least as much out of the EPCOT world showcase pavilion at Disney World.

Elevating "cop" to the status of fundamental moral term of approbation—so that all other condemnations should if possible be presented as subsuming the category being condemned under an expanded understanding of "cop"—seems to be a reliable way for ppl to warp helplessly beyond all recognition or salvageability any healthy impulse that might ever have underlain their suspicion of police

'Americanism,' you say?

Americans mistaking cultural things that are peculiar to America as cultural Christianity because they’re unaware of how Christianity is practised anywhere else in the world is also very funny

I'm not sure that making war out into something so horrible that it only can (and indeed must) licitly be waged against alleged "genocidal terrorists" &c. in fact inhibits atrocities or encourages peace overall on net. I think it may in fact do the opposite.

How do people like Chris Rufo not get sued into bankruptcy? He was quite open about the fact that his campaign to oust Gay had nothing to do with antisemitism or concerns about plagiarism. Why don’t the people he’s targeting for his bullying and harassment campaigns just band and sue for every penny he has for making their lives miserable?

Anyone can bring a lawsuit against anyone else for anything, but it's not actually illegal to publicize embarrassing facts about a public figure, even if the real reason you dislike them is for something other than a public statement they made that some other people claim constitutes antisemitism. Trying to make that illegal would clearly threaten basically everything that could conceivably be called journalism and is also probably a first amendment violation.

Frank Zappa once said “You can’t be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline.” Here’s the world, according to him.
