Americans seem to miss that the IRA (Irish Republican Army) were terrorists. Lots of people were killed including children.

IRA are known for setting of bombs.

I think that mental toughness in the last 5 minutes has been lacking for maybe a year.

Wonder if that will be more important than anything else.

OMG in still confused at this.

"I don't eat animals"

"Do you eat fish?" (My thinking people say they are vegetarian but are actually pescaterian but don't like saying it for some reason)

"Yea but thats not an animal"

"Hahaha yea it is"

"No it isnt"

"Wait what? .. If its not an animal what is it? A tree? Haha"

"It's a fish!"

"Which is an animal"

"No! An animal is an animal, and a fish is a fish!"

"Fish are animals. Look, we can look it up to check if you want"

"I'm not going to look it up because I know a fish isn't an animal. I don't need to look it up!"

"... ... I guess I can't argue with that"

This all took place during pre drinks which is why I thought I was getting fucked with at the start. But I never realised how so many people are walking around blindingly, confidently, unshakeably wrong. She got mad.

China Firm Plans World’s Largest Wind Turbine as Rivals Flop (www.bloomberg.com)
 

"* Ming Yang Smart Energy Group announced plans to build the world’s largest floating wind turbine, as Chinese firms seek a larger share of the global market.

  • The firm is working on a 50-megawatt, two-headed turbine, with mass production scheduled for next year, and aims to offer a cost of less than 10,000 yuan per kilowatt.
  • China remains a standout in the global offshore wind industry, with its largest turbine makers lobbying the government to accelerate installations, which would more than double output by the end of the decade."
