And the world will move on without the U.S. as the U.S. sabotages itself.

Good.

And the U.S. sidelines itself for no apparent reason ...

Thots and beers.

And will you continue to do that for the next item? No. And if you can't find a local supplier, you'll stop doing that business. It hurts the economy. And this is what will happen in the U.S.

My thoughts and prayers.
Not the time to talk about.
Kids aren't worth Freedumb.

As an aside, they enforce the rule that there's only one dog, cat or baby per set of 3 seats. This is because there's one extra oxygen mask per set of three seats.
Can you imagine if the air pressure was suddenly lost mid flight, and then you gotta get a freaking out cat out of its cage and hold a mask over its face? Has anyone actually ever done this and lived to tell the tale?

Isn't ketchup pretty much just red sugar gel?

Isn't that the point tho? The author created a purposefully imperfect world where the children could recognize the injustices and stand up against them. That's role modeling the right behavior. Our world is certainly not perfect and we have to stand up against bigotry and injustice (like transphobia). And the heros in the hp stories make mistakes but they learn and improve themselves - Rowling could learn from her own books!

Yes war sucks and they'll use whatever nasty stuff they invent. Of course, Hamas could just surrender and release all the hostages.

Right. The vague concept existed before in many different forms. She put hircruxes in her books and made them a thing that people understood. I'm not saying she's a great writer, but she clearly appealed to a lot of people with her writing, and not just kids. Her stories at least had decent morals. I'm not defending any of her anti-trans crap, but her Harry Potter fiction is a separate thing.

Um, where else did you get your original definition of a horcrux?
