Why I like AOC so much: She's saying things like "I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street."
Why most Democrats drive me nuts: So few of them are willing to say the very same thing.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Lrp at least where I am, the STB courses are all free, and you'll probably be able to find free classes around you as well. These are lifesaving skills in any situation, particularly because they train you to be in control of an emergency, which can save more lives than any gear in the world. +

No, it was a successful coup. None of the people who led it were punished, and are in fact back in power, rewarded for their efforts to break the system by running it. Donald Trump is currently the dictator he attempted to become 5 years ago, and it’s because nobody treated trying as a crime.
We must speak plainly: January 6th was an attempted coup. It was an effort to nullify millions of lawful votes and subvert the will of the American people.

Five years ago, Trump incited a violent insurrection. Armed extremists stormed the Capitol to overturn an election.
I never thought I’d see an attempted coup in the United States.
January 6th was an assault on democracy. And no amount of whitewashing will erase the truth.

So, fun fact. Tenchi Muyo! was the first title to be released in North America in a dual-audio format. The LaserDisc, which shipped in December 1993, included both the JP and English audio tracks, as well as English subtitles. It was priced at $31.46 USD.

In addition to this, if you want to study Japanese but struggle to pin down what to study I suggest you;
1. Ask yourself why you want to study Japanese.
If it's to read manga then focus on reading skills. If it's to speak, do think like listen to podcasts and practice speaking with a teacher.
