It was likely part of the veradero tourist project Fidel worked out when they relaxed some rules to build more tourism. Cuba used to have a domestic currency and an international currency that was just 1:1 whatever the USD was trading at. I think they already abandoned that years ago

Because there’s less Americans and we get recognizes as Canadian more often than not

Canadian Interac might be good option as well, since Canadian Mint already prints Cubas cash already apparently

I love in British Columbia and electricity is a provincial utility organization. I would prefer all utilities be run by the government

Or my personal favourite bit on el niño.

I did include “or so he claimed” because I do not know the accuracy of it either

I work in auto parts. I processed warranty returns for about 5 years as my main task for a while. We didn’t get many led bulb warranty/defective returns. Hella, Sylvania, Osram, Heliolite, and can’t remember the other brand we typically sell. Those brands have very very few returns that weren’t “we fucked up and ordered the wrong part”

Just stop buying cheap shitty bulbs from cheap shitty suppliers

There was a former CIA guy or so he claimed that pretty much made the claim the only people they didn’t fuck with in the intelligence community was Mossad. Not because they couldn’t but because mossad will use any means. ANY means to succeed collateral damage be damned and they are hardline on revenge. And they are good at it because they are absolutely ruthlesssly competent.

And I bet they did a LOT of dirty work for the USA to acquire that skillset, amongst other entitties

Is trump going to bring the IDF to help with election fraud or whatever bullshit he will manifest to justify it?

In also thoughts it was about Cillian but because I’ve always had off vibes from him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And killing. Kidnapping and killing

Oh they certainly deserve something. Hold on let me put on one of my favourite albums from the 80s…

It happens with any people that are heavily bound to religious practices, routines and rituals. Some places are much less religious than others, but that’s been my experience working with about a a hundred different people that aren’t from where I was born

I think this is far more normalized in the US to bring god into everything.

Not at all. I work with a lot of immigrants and wherever religion is heavily involved in the culture they come from, god or gods always get the credit. Jesus, Yahweh, Allah, Ganesha, Buddha, Holy Spirit, it doesn’t matter. It’s all the same different rules.

Most art needs context or understanding of a subject before it can be fully experienced. Something children generally don’t have the base of knowledge to understand or appreciate. Though there is certainly art that is meant singularily with just the work itself sans anything else.

Needing that art history to appreciate it doesn’t work for kids most of the time.

Science helps children understand the world they are a part of. They need it in a way that art generally doesn’t.

This also changes depending on what science is on display but kids as already exposed to art in the form of media and the decor of the places they live.

Higher science or perhaps a better term might be more complicated science needs advanced education to be digested, and also much of science that is new to people would need to be read and understood in publication or it is behind restricted areas for safety and also IP reasons so not really something you can bring kids to to show them.

So it makes sense, it’s not too difficult to understand. But there also is room for taking the time and effort to create museums that DO allow those things that usually arent allowed.

Art in action IS a museum/gallery

Science in action will often get you killed without proper safety and that would add significant cost to projects that already have funding issues.

And then there’s things like CERN… You can get a tour!
