I am continuously amused by the fact that Chicago/New York/name_a_city is not the county with the highest homicide rate, just a place with a high number of absolute homicides. The actual culprits are rural counties in the deep south.

Spanish is the vessel that may have brought them to the other side, somewhat bastardized, but they're not Spanish words. They never were. They're indigenous proper nouns.

Great explanation. Thx

I don't wanna sound uninformed, but... Jimmy Carter is still alive???

The GOPs bad faith argument...

They point to Chicago's strict gun laws, while omitting neighboring Indiana has lax gun ownership laws and people are free to travel between the two.

Yikes! I didn’t realize it was a frequent occurrence

This is typical of the Heritage Foundation and the Cato Institute. I was linked to a Cato paper which claimed the productivity/wage gap doesn’t exist. It claimed the additional value of non wage compensation completely removed the discrepancy. After a few paragraphs of variables and equations, buried in a footnote at the bottom read: “There is no number reference for this value.” Basically they gave a detailed report about how making up a missing number balanced the equation.

Chicago's homicides is half of the GOPs argument for it's lack of gun control.

yes exactly what I was thinking of.

This kind of shocked? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1H-PS_pr-t0

the heritage foundation misrepresenting data in bad faith to convey a reactionary message? I'm shocked! /s

Average price of almost 80$?! In Germany a decent tree is only 50€

I've always assumed that the real tree industry has fallen significantly in the last 2 decades especially, this makes me wonder if that's even remotely true though.

Bought a tree cutting permit for $5, only to realize that all the good wild trees have been burned up in the forest fires of recent years.

Ended up going to a mom-and-pop u-cut place for $40.

Still better than $78.87.

I had actually been considering this. These kinds of posts seem to stir up controversy though.

There is some difference in the interpretation of the word "origin." The posts gives the most recent origin rather than the complete known history of the word. I don't think recognition of indigenous languages should be neglected. At the same time, claiming that the terms were not introduced by way of Spanish speakers is like claiming "컴퓨터" is of Latin origin and not English. The term "컴퓨터" translates to "computer," and an audio recording can be found here:
