I feel like Germans are either German or Bavarian, and Brits use cities more than regions, but still identify as British to outsiders.

Of all the age of consent arguments libertarians make this is by far the weakest. Age of consent is literally up to a vote and can be changed. Thats how Arizona got it’s Romeo and Juliett law in the first place.

It’s not usually, the most extreme forms of libertarianism is the complete remove of government control over individual people, which includes a lack of age of consent laws and attracts a certain crowd.

Italians fall into the trap of being from their specific region rather than the country. Somebody from Sicily will say that aren’t Italian they are Sicilian, likewise how someone in Rome is Roman. To everyone else they are all Italian.

Actually it very explicitly is not. Per there website:

“Is Crime Stoppers part of the police? We are NOT the police.

All local Crime Stoppers programs act as the “intermediary” between the Tipster and the investigative/police agency. They are not-for-profits and mostly registered charities that are operated by volunteers from the community. The programs rely on donations from sponsors, community partners and the public through individual fundraisers, to support their efforts.”

It is not a crime to lie in most circumstances, that includes to the police in some cases. In most jurisdictions you cannot lie about your name and address and while under oath. Everytime else is free game.

They tried to get her so many times and each time they were foiled by more and more lucky series of events.

I’ve played Cyberpunk, haven’t played DATV but have seen a walkthrough. The cutscene we a referring to seems to be mandatory as no walkthrough or creator has mentioned a path that does not trigger it. There is another scene with the same character that plays as an akward sex scene. It again, feels and is forced, so people do not like it. If you removed these cutscenes and just had the character be trans it would be a non-issue.

It’s scalping if you have a quick turn around, it’s investing if you take care if it to sell farther into the future. Seeing a recently released limited set for double the price on ebay is scalping, seeing a 20-30 year old mint set for double the price is investing.

Games like Cyberpunk have characters who are black, gay, etc. but it never impacts the player character’s decisions when interacting with them (besides romance options). Dragon Age The Veilguard has one character walk the player through their sexuality in cutscenes, making it forced and unnecessary information in the moment. It’s the odd injection of the woke rather than the woke itself.

Buchanan was a slavery sympathizer who thought the secession was legal. There was a long historical debate leading up to the civil war on if a state could secede since states have to ratify the US constitution and so could possibly deratify and go their own way.

It’s most definitely a difference, it is also important to note this chart broke the US down into its states but did not do the same for the larger European countries. Taking data from statistica, Paris has a 10.2, the rest of the country is just so much more peaceful the overall is brought down. If America is taken at a whole it has a 6.3, which is still higher but not astronomically compared to the other countries.

In relation to countries outside of Europe, 571 does not seem astronomically high anymore, more like a miracle. Nearly every country in South America, Asia, and Africa that has data is much higher than the US average.

Just want to point out the graph maxes out at 12.5 out of 100,000. That’s 0.01% of 100000. With Louisiana’s population of 4.57million, it comes out to 571 people in 2020. Feels pretty low.

If you take Chicago and New Orleans out of the mix, the two states are actually fairly even.

It’s unironically not hard to avoid such mechanics in games and avoid real casinos. There is also an abundance of outside resources available to support you with a gambling addiction.

Cell phones and wall street yuppies became a thing at relatively the same time, yuppy culture really threw work life balance out the window and changed US working culture. There was no European equivalent to the wall street yuppy.

No elder is case opening on csgo, valve is fairly lenient for kids with mom and dads credit card, all you have to do is email customer support, being neurodivergent isn’t an excuse, you are either functional enough to understand the risks and problems or you are not functional enough to play the game in the first place. If you have a gambling problem, get help, but I don’t have to feel bad for you.

I have 0 sympathy for people caught in the casino aspects. The games are free, the game casino is for cosmetics, and you can play thousands of hours without paying a dime.

Actually there are only 3 requirements to be president in thr United States. Be 35 or older, be a natural citizen of the United States, and have lived in the United States for the last 14 years. People have ran from prison in the past, and there is legally nothing stopping a person from being president while also being in prison.
