Oh well it was a list of what each state has googled the most since the election. Oregon was "punching Nazis," and Oklahoma was "what is NATO"

I think so too. I feel like they'll try to wash their hands of responsibility for whats happening when Trump is through. Without quickly tying Republicans to everything just as firmly as Trump is they'll prob succeed on blaming him for the worst aspects :(

Lemme tell you about Mr. Polk seeing as he's one of the three TN presidents. He was elected on the general promise to annex Texas and ensure the Oregon territory was a part of the US. He did this by instigating the Mexican-American war that saw us grab most of the west. He then bullied the UK by threatening a war over setting the border at 54°40'. This was not too long after the Napoleonic wars had finally been put to bed and the UK really wasn't interested so they caved pretty quickly. Fulfilling all his campaign promises(*) he then quit after one term and went home to die of cholera a few months later.
I think he also relaxed some tariffs or something idk I haven't read about him in years. He was poo poo though.

Wilson ended up not being super widely remembered internationally, which would be sad if he hadn't also been a super gung-ho racist

That surprises me actually since sure he wasn't a major player in WW1 he was important to the fledging internationalists project

Did he lead a country while it sucked most of the wealth out of Europe and found the predecessor to the UN? That's why I was surprised, nothing against you.

nah, he was our first minister of foreign affairs and did bust his rear end to get the first independent latvia recognized de iure

as you might imagine, league of nations was mostly irrelevant to us, and hence isn't something discussed to a capacity greater than "by the way"

if you're a teacher and your grading scale is set up so that the best grade anyone could hope for is a C+, it doesn't make you some inspirational teacher who challenges students to push themselves. it just makes you a dick.

I believe it when I see it. Due to the inherent territoriality of IP regimes I assume there will either be big exceptions or the EU will tighten first sale/exhaustion principles. And I have my doubts if they are willing to do the latter even after the Ancestral Enemy Of Good Policy has brexited.

i imagine at first they'll leave all the same, but stop blocking europeans in other countries viewing domestic content, so you'll need vpn just for the one-time registrations
