Dutchy here; our national post office has been privatised decades ago (it currently goes by the name of PostNL). I believe most (western) eu countries don't have a national postal service anymore, like there isn't a national phone, tv or internet provider anymore.
I had a wireless keyboard where the internal battery was total crap, had to keep it plugged in because it would drain within an hour. Got one with replace batteries, plenty of those available. Might be safer bet for you as well.
Right. I mean it wouldn't necessarily be good for any economy but i don't think there is any country that has been at war as the us was the last century. If not by amount of years than surely by amount of enemies. At the same time i don't think there is a country that has produced and/or sold as many weapons as the us has the past century.
It looks cool i have to admit, just like illegal aliens sounds scary. I could even come to think it's great that the people that guard the "worst of the worst" take their job this serious. But then i think of who the facility they call Alligator Alcatraz is for, and why those people are put there, and suddenly i think of how cool these patches are as well:
I think you're in denial. If they had changed the name of Homeland Security into the dep of National Security for example, you probably wouldn't say that media outlets is parroting the us government.
I don't think so. My point is that 'the first American woman to win a medal in curling' just doesn't get the clicks. But unless she has a rich dad or husband paying the bills, the fact she has a job is quite obvious. I haven't read the article, but aside from the title, there probably isn't much in there about her actual work. Maybe i'm too cynical. Great for all the lab techs they get a shout out, i guess.
Wow the first lab tech to win a medal! What's next? Someone else with a job because they can't live off being one of the best in their sport? Good for her though, don't mean any disrespect, being the best in something is quite the achievement.
I am yet to see an offensive dad joke though
