I can't speak for the people who brought this on, but I would guess it's a combination of how much they were adhered to as well as the complexity, uniqueness, and effectiveness of the narratives attached to them.
My mom adopting me.
Supposing I were into drugs (not saying I'm not), my options feel limited since there are doubts that my medically challenged body would take it well.
Yes, and I've done a variant of this. I do a lot of art and lately have been trying a little of every art medium. Sketches, digital art, chalk art, tattooing, baking cakes, crop circles, etc. When I stop doing something, it's like my emotional focus turns off though.
I haven't genuinely enjoyed myself in so long, that's something I think I may have lost. I have no idea how I'll get it back.
TIL there was an Australian gold rush.
I have auburn hair (the red equivalent of dirty blond) and fear discoloration (spots becoming neon red) if I'm not wearing a bandanna. If that's the reverse of what you want, seek the sun, eat foods that maintain coloration, and avoid certain medications (though are you really going to do the last two things just for blonder hair?)
I had a gig as a tattoo artist at a comic con. Tattoos are not my thing and didn't seek it as a true job, but I know other people still consider it a pastime, realized I wasn't bad at it, and was able to meet up with people who said they'd put me in the position, plus I had to get some service done. At least fifty people from the area have gone public with how nice things played out with this unbecoming Maylu-Sakurai-cosplaying woman (probably the only time I'll do that cosplay) fulfilling their requests.
Is it wishful thinking to say he was the first to say "thanks Obama"?
Rallies were always useful before media became its current centralized technological force. Due to people skewing things, it's still technically useful. All for the same reason it was useful for philosophers like Zeno and Jesus to have people just sit and listen. It's the public figure equivalent of an artist archiving the step-by-step process on how they made a work of art in order to add some assurance.
Not really issues, but if there are two things I noticed everyone promises during campaigns but nobody delivers on, it's "I'll look through classified documents and reveal the truth about aliens" and/or "I'll remove Daylight Savings Time so it's the same time all year".
Seriously, it's almost a century down the road and nobody by now has done the bipartisan thing of repealing a law about something like our clocks which would take like a moment?
