Поехали!
Yup. Growing up a white Christmas was a given to the extent that the song “dreaming of a white Christmas” made 0 sense to my child brain since of course there would be snow on Christmas! It wasn’t unusual to have snow on or before Halloween and it would stay frozen till at least March, sometimes even later! I remember joking that it was really May showers that bring June flowers since it was still snowy in April!
The last few years it’s been well into December before the first snow, and it’s been a disgusting slushy mess that constantly melts and refreezes making everything a sheet of ice. Walking is dangerous, driving doubly so. We’ve had rain in January for Christ sake!
Not to mention the apocalyptic wildfires that blanket the entire region with pea soup smoke for days and weeks at a time making even going outside a struggle, let alone working in it
So I’m no finance/money guy but it seems pretty obvious that people aren’t going to want to tie themselves to something that can be taken away/used as a weapon like the US dollar is. Even if you aren’t (currently) in amerikkka’s cross hairs you can see how they treat their enemies and former allies, and how easy it is for former buddies of amerikkka to be next on the chopping block.
Wearing a stillsuit because my gaming rig makes my room to 100 degrees and I’m too addicted to gaming to get up and take care of basic bodily functions
thank you Bernie for crushing the last bit of lib electoralism in my brain over the last few years. Between how he was treated in 2016 and his behavior since every last bit of hope that we could make even a little change by voting has been crushed. Social democracy is the moderate wing of fascism, and they will murder Rosa every time.
