Sorry to hear it. 2 of my grandparents died before I was born, 1 I only met when I was really little before he died, so I only ever really knew my maternal grandmother and she passed away in late 2002 (age 70). I hate that I often took for granted having her around (I was a teenager), because she was the only grandparent I had.
I’m so sorry.
I was born in 1990. I lost my grandparents in 2003, 2008, 2014, and 2022. My biggest regret so far in this life is that I didn't learn more about their early years, and how they spent their lives. It's so easy to take them for granted, and then suddenly, they're gone.
Yup. My Oma died at 96 a couple years ago. It was harder than losing my Dad who I wasn't really close to.
Thanks for this. I would add that even against soviet, nazis were pushing to attack st. Petersburg alongside, but we said, it's not our territory, not our war. We only fought against attacker and only to defend our own lands. We took the help from where we could get one. To do thay, our president Ryti made illegal agreement with Hitler, knowing it's illegal. Hitler could not understand that he was not dictator and legally his agreement was not binding later. Ryti even spent some time in prison with all parties knowing, he made a great fake.

In the end, we still had third war, one against Nazis in Lapland. So i guess we were the only country to fight against both big sides

WHAT A DUM DUM
Yeah what an asshole. I checked on a website to see if my vote had been shitcanned, and it indeed it had. And I voted for the guy. IDK why he thought my vote was sus, other than it was cast in Wake county which is now ridiculously Democrat so I guess they figured it was like 70% chance it'd have been for the other candidate. Oh well.
Republican concedes long-unsettled North Carolina court election to Democratic incumbent
The Republican challenger for a North Carolina Supreme Court seat has conceded last November’s election to the Democratic incumbent.
Finally. For those who haven't been keeping track:
Republican judge, Jefferson Griffin, lost the North Carolina Supreme Court race back in November. It was a close race, but a machine recount and a partial hand recount confirmed that Democratic judge, Allison Riggs won by 734 votes.
Rather than accept the results, Griffin has spent the last 6 months fighting the decision. He wanted to potentially throw out 65,000 votes because he claims they were voted illegally. And the Republican-led Court of Appeals gave the Board of Education three days to find out if these 65,000 voters were eligible to vote. If these voters didn’t respond, their vote wouldn’t count. To no one's surprise, he targeted counties that favored Riggs and overseas voters as those that should have been thrown out.
It bounced around our court system for months, some favoring Griffin, others Riggs. Yesterday, a federal judge basically stated "Cut this shit out and concede" by saying that Griffin "can't change the rules of the game after it's been played."
lol, they gave her all the $$ back and told her to donate the lollys. They all had a big laugh. The kid lost phone permissions for a bit.
Is this an excuse I can replicate when ordering a gross ton of reeses cups?
Someone close to me handled the thing. You’re going to need to play the cute kid to pull it off.
"Sir... what is your kid's name?"
now my wife is going to have a hell of a time wondering why i'm walking around looking like i'm about to play lead guitar for ac/dcSomeone close to me handled the thing. You’re going to need to play the cute kid to pull it off.
I don't think there's much of a question as to his motivation. The fact that Griffin wanted to throw out those types of votes in Democratic leaning counties but wanted to count the exact same type ballots in Republican leaning counties says it all. Does anyone really think it had anything to do with the votes being suspect?
