"The spiral case (also known as the coil campaign, coil case or IUD case; Danish: spiralsagen or spiralkampagnen) is an ongoing investigation into a birth control campaign by the Danish government in Greenland which occurred primarily during the 1960s and 1970s. Danish doctors placed intrauterine devices in thousands of Greenlandic Inuit girls and women, often without consent and under the direction of government officials. The program was created to control Greenland's birth rate."
A country where women don’t have rights over their own bodies is what draws Trump closer to Greenland.

I suppose if I built a house in the woods,
I'd want to clear the 'immediate forest,
Build the house out of clay/stone/concrete, something not so flammable,
Maybe build a large clay/stone/concrete wall around the property.

Then again, maybe even all that might not be enough,
I wouldn't know.

Maybe build half of house underground, so you can move all your stuff under, and seal it off from the top layer of house.
Of course the 'entire house having a mechanism to lower fully into the ground and close up the top would be better,
But how expensive would 'that be?

. . . Course on another hand, if you clear up all the immediate forest, might make for a less scenic view.

Lessons learnt.
1. Have water available to fire hydrants.
2. Pay your firefights well.
3. Respect climate change.

Build a treehouse on the edge of the forest.

And you probably don't need all that stuff.

My house is full of stuff I don't need.

Aw, but I 'love all my accumulation of material possessions that I store more than use.

Treehouse sounds fun for a day or few, maybe.

Course on another hand,
When one is swimming in surplus, it can be easy to forget about other humans. Easy to forget empathy, forget to care.
"A bone to the dog is not charity. Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog" - Jack London.

Sometimes one only bothers to achieve ideals 'in hardship.

Being as hungry as the dog creates competition for food with the dog.

Personally, I think dropped arguments in debates, can be weak at times.

If Pro says they should win the debate because Con is dumb,
And Con never addresses said argument,
Does that mean Pro should get a point?

I don't think so,
I think Voters can 'To a 'Degree,
Evaluate arguments themselves.

Of course, it holds more weight if Con addresses the argument,
But I think as well, that bad arguments hold less weight than good arguments.
'Regardless, if they are not addressed.

Dumpster Fires and Flame Wars.
Something to watch, to pass the time, from time to time.

Would you say there are any differences between an Agent and a Ninja?

I suppose Agents might be a bit more high society disguised in public, while a Ninja might be low/middle class disguised in public.
Sure there is a Eastern vs Medieval Europe aesthetic difference,
Maybe Ninjas, have secret hidden Clans in fiction, more than Agents.

I'm just fiddling around with RTS idea designs for fun,
Always thought the unique units in Command and Conquer Generals were pretty fun,
LOTR BFME2, had some interesting units, same with Warlords Battlecry series, Starcraft, really, just RTS's in general.

Scout Hall
Skirmisher, bonus vs archers, bonus vs spears
Rogue, gains gold when fighting, Slower than light infantry, less armor than heavy, no bonus defense against arrows. Fights about euqal with light infantry in a fight.
Agent, Can Attach burn charges to buildings, Can steal information from a building, more expensive building more info that is stolen of opponent resources, shows up in reports, can go invisible like starcraft ghost, but attacking will break cloak. Can attach burn charges to buildings timed faster or give the order. Can target a unit for cloak attack. Can scan area for invisible units this can be set to upkept which will set floating eye sigel above their head eye is not targetable. Can disguise self. Only 1 Agent can be disguised at a time?
Archer, It's an archer. Can build a scout post or eagle/drone that flys above.
Ranger, an archer Substandard Archer, Substandard melee with still a weakness to skirms, though being able to melee might force some skirms to run for distance. Can switch to melee. Archers and skirms can't destroy buildings. Hm, why only skirm run away in AOE2? Maybe have rangers auto melee, and switch ability, while archers run away. Can build a scout post or eagle/drone that flys above.
Geurilla, Light infantry speed, with cav speed in forests, hills, or mountains. Can build a scout post or eagle/drone that flys above.
Ninja, has a ranged attack, can climb walls, more vision, smaller scan area for invisible, less costly stealth, slower in getting reports, faster burn charge, slower order charge. Better melee than Agent and ninja able to kite heavy infantry with ranged. Can disguise self. Smoke bomb teleport.
Shadowdancer, Smoke bomb teleport is faster, but worse cloak, stronger ranged attack, weaker melee. Least health.

Nunjas  are Roman Catholic, and prefer Kung-fu.

Though they do like Sushi.

I expect that it was a subliminal reaction relative to a quantum signal from JADES-GS-z14-0.


Taylor Swift similarly.
