  • Let’s assume Norway has 5 million people and the US has 300 million people, and they’re going to have a taco eating contest.

    If every American eats 1 taco, that’s ~300 million tacos eaten. If every Norwegian eats 30 tacos, that’s “only” 150 million tacos eaten (30 x 5mil = 150mil).

    If we’re talking about total tacos eaten, Norway “loses” the eating competition. But that’s not really fair because the US has 60x more people participating.

    If we’re talking about tacos per person (aka normalizing for the population), Norway wins the competition because each person ate 30x more tacos than the average American.

    So, which country eats more tacos? The answer depends if you’re counting total number of tacos eaten, or average number of tacos eaten per person (aka per capita).








  • Definitely tomatoes and some jalapenos or habanero peppers over here as well, and then I’m thinking some radishes and probably something green too, maybe peas?

    I do enjoy a good hike! Big nature guy. Nowhere near the scenery of the bush where I’m at, but we have some great trails and nature areas. Now I’m inspired to get out and do some of that this weekend. Cheers mate!


  • Got a small plot in the backyard! Haven’t planted anything yet because it’s still dipping below freezing but I’ll probably be planting in the next week or two. Winter was definitely short this year, only a couple real snowstorms and everything was melted by a month later. Global warming and all.

    Bush walks sound fun, not sure if I do them or not though! I walk outside sometimes 🤙





  • Yes, it’s not something that accidentally happens to ingest that much bullshit and take it at face value. There are other TV channels, websites, and people to talk to. By the time you’re storming the US capitol building, you have made several intentional choices that put you in that position.


  • A lot of celebrities need to travel to entertain. A lot of those celebrities do not fly nearly as much as Taylor Swift does, and continue to make a living. Knowing these facts, one logical answer to your question is that she could probably fly a lot less than she does and still maintain her career as an entertainer.

    It’s not that she shouldn’t travel, which seems to be your takeaway of the criticism of her. It’s that she should fly less, or do it much more efficiently (if she needs to fly, does she need to fly separately from everyone else in her crew that is going to the same location, or can she chart 1 jet for everyone?)
