I'm glad you did

So what happens when your heart freaks out? You have pain, or you collapse, or what? When the device brings you back, do you just get up and go about your day?

I take it this hasn't happened yet, but I assume you know what to expect

ppphhh56 karma

This is what it's like being in the rest of the world.

Ha!

It costs money to stand as a candidate, and is (as I understand it) an awful lot of hard work, too much for a lot of people to take on, and certainly too much for a lot more to even consider it. Especially for the Pirate Party, who probably aren't going to win (through no fault of their own, smaller parties rarely do.)

It's a bit of a vicious cycle keeping the big parties in power and making it very difficult for smaller ones or independent candidates to get any real support.

ppphhh16 karma

When I was a young'un we used to hang round in a graveyard, simply because it was a quiet and pleasant place to be. I'll point out it wasn't one in use, but all old graves near an old church, I don't think anyone has been buried there for 200 years. I always used to feel a bit bad for just hanging around there but eventually it became the norm, and was just like a park. Nobody I know ever had sex there but I can imagine it being more of an easy place to hide when you're 16 than a taboo thing.
