https://twitter.com/axios/status/1633708959164162048 Axios's democracy index just narrowly has one more country backsliding than forward-sliding. If Peru could've just not gone to poo poo we could've had a net positive change. I wonder if anybody has put all of Axios's democracy indices together into an animated thing to see the progression of the world (and also their more blatant mistakes). I know they've switched color schemes before. https://twitter.com/axios/status/1633830176151990274

Japan saw themselves as a similar island nation destined to rule a naval empire of their lessers. And with shared goals of subjugating China/isolating Russia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Japanese_Alliance

Seems like driving on the correct side correlates with not being destroyed by climate change. Shame about that one hideous island off Europe escaping justice.

The entire point of Lent is to let go of earthly pleasures for a while. This seems incompatible with the day of drinking and partying a lot. But I'm not a theologian.

That's the whole point. Fat Tuesday is literally "get it all out of your system" day because this is the last time for the next 40 days.
