@FoxNews It's funny how the US people and media are polarised. Once I noticed that the post was about politics and by Fox News, I knew that the comments would be from Republicans.
Democrat Senate candidate in Arkansas Hallie Shoffner is trying to put as much space between her and Kamala Harris as possible ahead of the former VP’s visit to the state.
Harris’ trip to Arkansas marks the first campaign event she’ll be headlining since her historic 2024 presidential election loss.
Shoffner says she has no plans to meet with Harris while the former vice president delivers a keynote address at the Arkansas Shackelford Dinner in Little Rock.
@BBCWorld I don't believe this story. It seems like Embalo has staged everything. Ultimately, he may be restored to power by the same military. This guy was his personal security guard.
Linguists estimate that it takes about 1,000 years for a language to change enough that people at the beginning and end of the 1,000-year period can't at all understand each other. This holds with English—if you went back to the year 1024 AD and walked around England, you wouldn't understand what the hell anyone was saying because they'd be speaking Old English, which is really a very old version of German.
What's weird is that it also holds for the future. If you time machined to 3024 AD and (if somehow humans and countries are still around) walked around New York or London, you probably wouldn't be able to understand anything people said.
This process happens slowly enough that in any one lifetime, we don't really see it happening. But if you look closely, you see it. Think how confused a 1990 person would be if you asked them to help you find that lit meme about crypto podcasts everyone was posting on their insta stories. Or think about the terms and phrases your grandparents use that have gone out of style and no young person would ever use. Or even the slightly different ways old people and young people pronounce words. Now multiply this little bucket of differences by 20 and you have a totally different language.
