Quick thought, how about we stop calling places where people are trying to live their lives "shithole countries?"

Went to India for a month tour, no gang rapes in sight, lots of good food eaten, lots of beautiful architecture seen. Went to Germany, had to stop three German men from harassing and pulling a tiny woman into a car she clearly didn't want to get into.

Maybe I should have written an international news article about it. 🤔

I don’t think you realize how boomer Japan is regarding technology in the new Millennium. Their industry tech is always on the curve (especially robotics), but their lifestyle tech is just…god it was like going back 10-15 years in time. They still had as many flip phone commercial and plans as smartphone ones back when I was living there in 2018. Stores in Ginza, one of the most expensive places in Japan, would have “cash only” signs because they didn’t want to learn how to set up a card machine. The older population has really been holding them back.

They’ve had to digitize a lot of stuff due to Covid (thank god) but me and most people I knew were issued actual paper paycheques we’d have to physically take to the bank for payday. The lines at the bank on the 15th or 25th of the month in Tokyo were something else.

as someone who makes an appropriate income enough to afford a Tesla

7h old account that posts nothing but inflammatory comments. I guess shitposting is paying 6 figures nowadays?

Israel is going to want to monitor the region for a long time to make sure Hamas isn't coming back.

Wasn’t Netenyahu sending funds to Hamas?Maybe stopping that should have been the first step.

Seriously, I thought this would spur some sort of discussion of “perceived value” in prestige academia, but instead it’s just low effort comments saying “slammed”.

Because Bethesda knows that the modding community will polish the game up for free.

Do…people use Tiktok ironically?

Jokes aside, I’m going to go against the grain a bit. I liked having Tiktok during the pandemic, it probably saved my mental health. The algorithm showed me videos of people having the same experience as me with the lockdown, or just stuff about my hobbies (I never got the horny stuff people always complain about).

But I uninstalled it after social distancing rules were relaxed in my country because I started getting more and more polarizing and political videos, even though I wouldn’t engage with them.

It could honestly be a great social media platform if it was based in a more privacy respecting country and we didn’t live in a capitalist hellscape where everything has be for profit.
