Are they treating the two years after the Proclamation being issued as a delay? Cause it was issued in January 1863, the 'delay' was having to finish the Civil War.

Slushies are severely underrated, both in terms of a refreshing beverage and as a sweet treat

credburn posted:Well, I must admit I was rather ignorant about the whole thing. I first learned of Juneteenth in 2008 when I was in a Texas jail, and then living in Texas for a little bit. I moved back North shortly thereafter and wouldn't even hear "Juneteenth" mentioned outside of Texas for almost ten years. The Emancipation became official two and a half years before Juneteenth. From juneteenth.com: I mean... what do you think the other 12 confederate states did? Release their slaves out of altruism? Juneteenth started in Texas but it's a thing because Texas was the last slave state to be occupied. It's the celebration of the date the emancipation proclamation went from words to enforced in all 13 confederate states. It's the day nowhere in the US was slavery allowed. We've got some modern poo poo to compare but juneteenth is far more than a Texas thing. Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 04:52 on Jun 26, 2022 |

i don't find many food combinations gross but i just found out the new girl at work dunks her cheese sandwiches in her cup of tea that in itself is strange and kinda gross enough but the fact she puts SIX teaspoons of sugar into the tea makes it worse

im very much a fan of a 0.5 teaspoon of sugar just to impart a tiny bit of sweetness, 2 tablespoons is extreme black tea and black coffee are pretty vile tbh, i think they are just excuses for those of us in society who are lactose intolerant (babies)

Eurovision song contest isn't that good. Also banning Russia was good, not for humanitarian reasons but because just slamming the Red Army Chorus singing Kalinka and Katyusha and poo poo into events is not fair. No poo poo Russia, we get it, you have mastered the all-male choir.

Eurovision in America is just insufferable people ironically listening to trash music. And most importantly then never shutting the gently caress up about it.

Part of the appeal of fantasy is exploring different worlds with different methods of being. People in fantasy worlds shouldn’t have the same worldview and morals as modern people and to demand that do is deeply silly

The average LGBT+ individual would probably have had a better time in a whole load of other time periods instead of the imaginery medieval period that exists in people's brains.

Regardless of how you feel about their quality, "samey" is an outrageous claim to make about the Beatles.

The Beatles aren't bad per se, but they are definitely the world's most overrated band and it's not even close. There were better musicians then and there are plenty of better musicians today Every single ounce of Beatles zombie commercial success past Let It Be is owed to boomer nostalgia

Henchman of Santa posted:The two most tedious musical opinions one could have are "the Beatles are the greatest band of all time" and "the Beatles actually suck" For real. I have never met a die hard Beatles fan that wasn't at least mildly disturbing, and on the flipside I've never met someone who claims they suck who wasn't clearly an idiot.

A lot of Anglophone "thoughts" do not seem all that different from people across time or the globe. Like in the case of Glorantha you have it where a culture have "Violence is always an option", but when you examine it that seemingly horrific sentiment is also similar to how a lot of our political ideals function in reality.
