    I'm proud of my inuit brothers and sisters. The Americans may finally fucking get the hint. Apparently it wasn't enough to see that one inuk rip up American dollars when those cringe American youtubers came to give out maga hats an free money earlier this year.

    Trump and his subhumans thought that the greenland-denmark conflict would benefit them, but honestly, it's got nothing to do with them. We have tried to sort out our differences while America had been an annoying mosquito trying to make our relationship troubles about them. Dumbasses. Greenland is their own people. They are their own nation and someday it will be official, but we aren't there yet and while they have a lot of issues with Denmark, there's no doubt they prefer us over America. It was never a question.

      Protip: Learn to growl. When Jehova's witnesses or suchlike knock, be very polite, tell them they're welcome, how you're happy they came to you to find the light Lucifer brings.

      I went to a Catholic University.

      I was never Catholic, and I was agnostic by the time I received my degree. However, there was a religion requirement, and one of the religion classes I took was taught by a Catholic priest.

      He mentioned he loved when JWs knocked on his door. He'd invite them in, sit them down, and just debate them until they couldn't stand it anymore and practically begged to leave.

      It sounded like he treated it like an opportunity to convert them to catholicism, not because he expected them to convert as much as he just thought it was funny.

        I probably wouldn't have tried durian or nattou if I didn't know what they were, but maybe I'll notice some exception some day. (I might have still tried haggis since I don't recall it having any smell to it, but I wouldn't feel better not knowing what it was.)

            Lutefisk? That's Norwegian.

            Honestly tho Hakarl and Lutefisk are locked in an eternal battle for the revolting seafood jerky award

            I think you're thinking of Surströmming, which is Swedish and absolutely vile. (Properly prepared) Lutefisk is quite mild though definitely weird, even if you're used to stuff like pickled herring. Ordinary pickled herring is fermented in brine (and own enzymes), intensity depends on age at the tail end of things you get fish sauce, Surströmming is fermented in lactic acid, Lutefisk is not fermented at all it's stockfish (dried without salting) rehydrated in lye, then properly rinsed and cooked. It's mostly the texture that's weird.

            If you find yourself in Scandinavia one thing to definitely try is elk salami.

              Questions

              Bent:

              We need to be independent of the United States and it can only go too slowly. After Trump probably comes a "normal" president and then maybe again an idiot and so on. My question then is: How quickly can Europe become at least 80 percent independent?

              Bent is smarter than Keir Starmer, who's still treating Trump administration with undeserved grace.

                  I have no experience with Hakarl or Lutefisk, but from what I've heard about Lutefisk, they wouldn't have to eat it. Just opening the can in their presence would send a message.

                      You mean Greenlanders don't want to invite a fucker that's trying to colonize them in for a spot of tea? Color me surprised.

                      Maybe they could try bribing homeless people with food again?

                        I'm an atheist and this is one of my favourite hobbies! I could usually find a few on Sundays close to vulnerable people hotspots - churches, hospitals - and all it took was a glance at their magazine stand for them to strike up a conversation.

                        So far, I've found they're ill equipped at proving the existence of a god, let alone their specific brand. Some were actually impressed with a detailed theory of evolution, and may or may not have started to reassess their view of the world.

                        I really love some good faith arguing in the morning...

                              Yes! Surströmming is the right one. Years ago I saw a video of a couple of guys trying to eat it. One managed to shove some in his mouth before the puking started but the other started puking as soon as he smelt it.
                              That would be worth a special import 😄

                                Yeah, most Americans are too cowardly, or dumb (or both), to do anything meaningful. They prefer to sit by and watch their country get demolished, because trying to stop it would take effort.

                                  I watched a video of someone demonstrating how to properly eat it and it involved a whole process of opening it up in a bucket of water and staying away to let the gases out, then taking it out and putting it in sandwiches with vegetables

                                    Haggis doesn't really have a strong smell, tastes good though (btw, if you ate it in the US, it probably didn't have sheep lung in it because it's banned over there)

                                        In order to maintain complete transparency we removed the scoreboard and actually keeping score is illegal if we're losing.

                                          External self-determination cares little about national laws. That's kinda the whole point. The real question is what type of conditions need to be met before a right to external self-determination arises and is recognized by other countries. In general, most countries don't recognize a right to unilateral seccession under any condition. At the same time, it is also agreed that if a state were to make the practice of internal self-determination virtually impossible or meaningless, then a right to external self-determination should arise. In which case any "no backsies" rule under US national law (even the constitution) may be seen as a breach of fundamental rights.

                                          With independence, it usually comes down to who has the bigger stick (in both material and ideational terms). The are definitely scenarios in which US states can make a valid legal case for independence but the conditions for that still haven't been met as most international lawyers will agree that Americans in all states are afforded the right to internally self-determine. For now. Things are changing quickly.
