You didn't show your work, but it's a beautiful afternoon here...so...I'll allow it, lol. The real question is what's up with that $5 million Baby Yoda puppet? Then again, it's not as if they're paying him a salary.

It's a loop, and either someone walked past a light source or something like a ceiling fan was breaking up reflected light and it's refracting in the clear gelatin. If you look in front of the pie you can see the reflection in the plate also cycling.

Oh, and in the States, your Congressmen would be analogous to our 338 Members of Parliament, each representing an electoral district(riding) and elected by that riding's voters.

I think that when they select their party leader, there is still a consideration given to overall "voter appeal". It's not as if the leader is automatically the smartest and/or most politically astute, just the most palatable to the party, and hopefully, the voters.

Phew! For a moment, I thought it was another electoral map breaking down voting results.

About 1 in 12 males have a color blindness issue, while woman are about 1 in 250.The fascinating part is that, apparently, some women, exclusively, seem to manifest an amazing ability to discern 100 million colors as opposed to the average 1 million normal people can detect. The article I read mentioned a physician who could see otherwise imperceptible shades on people's faces that helped her in her diagnosis. Another example was a seemingly gray river, fed by multiple streams, that appeared as an entanglement of distinct shades to one of these super color vision owners AKA as tetrachromats. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20140905-the-women-with-super-human-vision

Canada has 5 political parties forming the current Parliament. Trudeau is the leader of the majority Liberal Party-a further left version of the Democrats, they elected the most MP's, so he gets to be the PM. During the 20th century, they have formed the Government for 70 of those years. The Official Opposition(next highest amount of elected MP's) Conservatives, are a less RW version of the Republicans. The 3 other parties are the Bloc Québécois-a regional party representing Quebec, the NDP-which is left of the Libs and the Green Party. The majority of Canada's population is in Ontario and Quebec, so they have a bigger impact than western Canada's more right leaning population. Like Americans, we identify with a party and sometimes rag on the others. Trudeau's PM, and so he's a target-not that he doesn't deserve to get ragged on, it just comes with the territory, even if you're actually doing a good job.

"No, I get that a lot. I'm actually from Stockholm, but funny story, we sometimes get each other's mail. Why do you ask?"

"Your" thoughts were echoing the exact bullshit coming out of Trump's camp-a dangerous and disingenuous attempt to push a distrust in the election process because a malignant narcissist is incapable of acting like an adult. Own it!

Maybe once, but I'm thinking more like plates of steel now.

They didn't "suddenly" show up and they definitely weren't ALL for the other guy. Most
early mail votes were by Dems, about 76%, and the reason they are only now being counted is because REPUBLICAN State Legislatures REFUSED to change the rules to allow early counting. Furthermore, it wasn't the Dems who put a political appointee-a BIG Trump donor, in "charge" of the Post Office, who then cut overtime, dismantled sorting machines and had to be ordered by a judge to stop his ham handed attempts at thwarting the timely delivery of legally cast ballots. You don't get to set up roadblocks and then disingenuously whine like a little bitch about how long the trip is taking, unless your name is Trump, lol.

Exactly. If these 10 parties are all electing representatives, as is to be expected in the real world, with different regions and voting groups, such as urban vs rural, having different priorities, then the "winner" may not even lead the country. We now enter the wonderful world of coalitions, where 5 losers get together and form the majority, if the other 5 can't overcome their idealogical differences. So the "majority" will be represented theoretically, though there's a lot of infighting and horse trading involved, which means things move forward at a crawl.
