I thought as much.

Do I need to bother reading this, or is it just a journalist misunderstanding epigenetics?

Majority of people are either pardo (mixed white/black/indigenous) or white indigenous population is less than 1%). First mixed race president was in 1909.
80ish% European descent 16% indigenous
Also it’s worth pointing out that both countries speak European languages and are majority Catholic.

Both governed by European settlers rather than the indigenous population.

Israel is a colonist entity just like the USA, Canada, Australia, new Zealand, Argentina, Brazil, etc etc. When the original Israelites arrived there thousands of years ago they colonised it and drove out whoever was there first, they were then driven out by the Arabs who were driven out by the Ottomans who were driven out by the British, who ceded it to the Arabs and Jews who will likely both get invaded by the Turks to “restore peace”. It’s a cursed piece of land. But, you can’t remove it, because the Israelis have hidden a bunch of nukes all around the world as an insurance policy.

I think I’m half way through that already, but it doesn’t show up immediately on Helfo so I don’t know for sure.

If you receive a high medical bill, you should follow Luigi’s example.

- Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is? 2 months ago:
Probably. I was living in Bergen at the time, so it wouldn’t have been practical for me. I make British Christmas food anyway, which is a lot more heavily spiced than Norwegian Christmas food. So it works to just use baking margarine.

That was rough. It happened right before Christmas too. People were scalping butter on finn.no and supermarkets had to import butter from France.

Also I remember reading a newspaper account of a danish supermarket that actually ordered 1000 litres of milk by mistake. And everyone in Norway found it hilarious, because it happened after the sketch was aired.
- Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is? 2 months ago:
Yes, to an extent, but I don’t think it has to do with grammar as much as pronunciation. Norwegian (bokmål) and danish are almost indistinguishable when written down, but spoken Danish is pronounced very weirdly (a lot of swallowed and mumbled consonants that causes it to sound like the speaker has gotten drunk on their way back from getting a root canal and is currently struggling to eat a hot potato). Despite Norwegian having a massive range of regional dialects, Norwegian kids learn to speak a lot quicker than danish kids. Largely because danish kids just don’t understand what they’re hearing for longer. The Danes have to subtitle their own TV programmes because they don’t really understand each other. It’s a fucking mess. Norwegian kids understand Swedish before danish kids understand danish.

They really don’t.

I literally was going to say that exact thing. It’s why they had to ban kinder eggs. Everything from heavy grease to tide pods and small plastic toys looks edible to Americans.

You get those places in Europe too, but you also get places that are queer friendly, serve food and craft beer, have a good punk oriented jukebox, and the barman will start pouring your drink when you walk through the door because they know what you’re going to order.
