That’s super informative, thank you.

I lost the game

Steve Hughes did a pretty good bit on this - “Go play with your girly tits you Gaylord, I’m going to fuck a man.”

From my limited understanding, Lincoln was somewhat committed to ending slavery but wasn’t even that concerned with it, like it wasn’t part of his first 100 days plan or anything. However, his election was interpreted by the south as a full on attack against their rights (to keep slaves) so they attempted to secede.

So the north gave a shit but understood the need to end slavery, they just planned to do it in like a 5-10 year plan. Meanwhile the slavers jumped the gun, shot themselves in both feet and made it the most pressing issue they could which led to the end of slavery and the damaged the economies of several states.

Christmas Island is well known for its asylum camps… and nothing else? Stupid is really the only word.

From wikipedia:

Christmas Island’s geographic isolation and history of minimal human disturbance has led to a high level of endemism among its flora and fauna, which is of interest to scientists and naturalists. … As of the 2021 Australian census, the population of Christmas Island is 1,692.

And there’s a town there called “The Settlement”?

Good pick /s

What’s the extension? Advertise to me dammit, I’m intrigued
