Ah fair enough then. A lot of Americans who don’t live around Latin communities have the same misconception. But yeah, they align pretty strongly with white conservative Christians in almost all areas, biggest difference is there’s better food around lol

If anything, I don’t get why people assume Latino communities are left leaning, other than defaulting to expectation that minority=dem votes. Latinos tend to be conservative af, many are religious, still have very traditional views like wives stay in the kitchen cooking and cleaning, bootstrap mentality, anti handouts, call poor people lazy, etc. Like it’s clear as day that Latino communities are right leaning if you spend any time around them.

Then you have the anti Castro Cuban population especially that always have the “I didn’t leave a communist country just to be part of another one” response whenever leftist social policies try to get implemented in Florida, and if something ever does pass, they go around all “this is Cuba all over again!” and scare the populace

Gives me strong vibes of that Japanese baseball game where the devs just invented English names

The current state of capitalism will ensure the second line never sees the light of day

Saddest day of my childhood was halfway through middle school when they switched from the classic red waffles you see here to these sponge “safety” dodgeballs, because the school board was afraid of kids getting injured. They were so light you couldn’t get any speed behind your throws and when they hit you if felt like nothing more than a sharp gust of wind. I’ve never been the same since

A lot of countries have tax treaties with each other as long as they’re in good standing with each other, so that people only need to pay tax in one country (in the case where one maintains citizenship in one country while working in another). Unless you’re making a shit ton of money to the point you’re subject to different rules, it’s highly unlikely you’ll be double taxed

Fwiw I think rampage did a pretty solid job as BA, especially considering the pressure and expectations of having to replace mister t

Beware of spiders though

I’ve talked about it with people who are not rich themselves but who are around the mega rich because of their jobs… Apparently at a certain point, “things” lose their meaning and experiences become their new materialism. Hence why so many rich people get caught up in depraved shit that makes it on the news, because theyre down the rabbit hole of collecting wild experiences as opposed to cars or jewelry or whatever other entry level rich person stuff. Flexing becomes more about “have you been to x, have you done y” etc

Sure, but given the state of things, I think we’re closer to the boys than we could ever be to the avengers

So… Do you often just stand in the middle of rooms while looking at your phone? That’s pretty damn weird not gonna lie

Hey I do what I can

Problem for me is phones are uncomfortable to use for gaming in so many ways. My hands aren’t even that big, and my thumbs cover a lot of the screen. Then phones get hot when using them a lot. Not to mention staring that long at a mobile screen makes my eyes feel like raisins. Plus it’s really shit posture to sit with your neck bent at a 90° angle looking straight down into your lap. None of these are very enjoyable for a gaming experience.

I won’t even talk about the crazy predatory nature of most phone games being aggressive dopamine hijackers, cause that’s covered in the thread already, but that too.

If anyone is actually curious they’re just salt&black pepper, with kinda black carbon to make the chips look black

I truly hope the anti video game nuts start attacking true crime docs now with the same passion they’ve had for call of duty and gta for the last 20+ years

Not to piss in the soup here, but if someone wants to murder you, it’s perfectly doable for them to meet you in a public place, do the lesson, and then simply follow you afterwards. I say this as a former private English teacher who has heard multiple stories from colleagues about stalker students who always had lessons in “safe” places

The fly has maxed out linguistic stats and can understand all languages… But it still has normal fly senses so all you can hear is air vibrations

It seems most people are complaining about when Spotify plays random stuff it thinks you like, but I’m having the same issue with my actual created playlist. I’ve carefully gathered and downloaded all my favorite songs into a playlist that has about 3 days worth of music on it… Yet it plays the same 100-200 or so songs no matter what, even on shuffle. I’m pretty sure most songs in this list have never been played. Very irritating

Yeah here in Japan most places have a red and blue indicator that moves with the lock. Bidets and toilet seat sanitizers are also pretty standard in any decently modernized areas. We kinda win when it comes to bathrooms.

I’d love to see what a liberal asshole politician would look like, but i can’t see it working out today. As much as the right blows wokeism out of proportion, PC culture is still a thing in a lot of liberal areas, and if you’re not PC as a liberal politician I imagine you’ll offend the more sensitive parts of your own base. Didn’t Bernie Sanders get hit with some of that? And he wasn’t even that assholeish, he just showed a spine.
