The BR-319 roadway is a mostly dirt road through the rainforest that connects the states of Amazonas and Roraima to the rest of the country. It ends in Manaus, the Amazon’s largest city with more than 2 million people, and runs parallel to the Madeira River, a major tributary of the Amazon River. The Madeira is at its lowest recorded level, disrupting cargo navigation, with most of its riverbed now endless sand dunes under a sky thick with smoke.

Are you trapped in here with me? Or am I trapped in here with you?

It might be true, but it’s the last thing people need to hear when they’re 15

Just to be clear I do see the Russians as the bad guys and think their invasion is evil and illegal.

It’s not particularly true outside the US though, most NATO members spend less than the 2%, and here in the UK the army is down to 30k or so staff. In a nation of 70 million. If total war were to break out, how long could the UK survive?

Meanwhile NHS spending as a % of GDP rose even under the conservatives, although this figure doesn’t take into account an aging population.

I disagree but this is a good counterarguement, thank you for the perspective.

I would encourage people not to refer to this as an “identity”. Mental health conditions such as what’s now referred to as A.S.D are real “things” that have large impacts on people’s life, and are not and never will be (imo) "identity"ies.
