Funnily enough there's a lot of Irish heritage in Mexico. During the Mexican-American war the Irish who were on the American side thought "this is messed up" and swapped to Mexico's side.

This news story is horrible, but the headline is funny with this context.

If it's Boeing I'm not going.

Meh, millionaires are fine. Becoming a millionaire is something you can do with good health and hard work.

If it's 10 million I get a bit concerned. If it's 100 million I have a problem. If it's 1 billion then I'd consider them evil incarnate.

Just deleted it. But I don't really want to have to go back to piracy.

If it's Boeing, I'm not going.

If I want to go from Australia to Europe, I'm probably going through Canada or Mexico. Don't really want to go through the UAE either, or over (self-proclaimed) Israeli airspace.

This is terrible for business. But worse between this and the Rhode Island wind farm he cancelled he seems to be particularly striking fear into the "green" sectors (I know EV's aren't really that green). This is not good for the climate.

Well, with Russia.

Japan owns a lot of American debt but most of it is owned by American domestic companies.

This seems self-destructive. America is gonna really struggle without semiconductors for the next 10 years.

It is a really stupid age verification law.

In my case it's the tariffs.

I smell weakness. I want to amplify that weakness as much as I can because America has long abused it's dominant global position.

He's corrupt. He does what benefits him personally regardless of what morals he supposedly holds.

Nobody reads newspapers anymore. Video reporting was far more flattering for Trump.

Hacking is a crime that ignores borders, I didn't expect that America would arrest anyone for the crime of hacking it's enemies like China.

Football fans will do anything to watch the cup. Don't expect them to not turn out.

Well, anything but American, Russian, or Israeli.

China I'm still undecided on, though it's nearly impossible to avoid. The reason isn't so much war crimes as just becoming a bit uncomfortably powerful and who knows whether that's a good or bad thing.

I guess someone in the Canadian government has been watching too much Fox News if they think LA is particularly dangerous.

Unrelated but why is the South China Morning Post asking me for money. I'd assume an English language Chinese newspaper exists solely for propaganda purposes. Is there a market for this in the West?

EDIT: It's Hong Kong based, that's why it's so weird.
