Reply to comment by StelioZz in LPT: Don't believe any marketing campaigns tomorrow by schaefercmatthew
My mother is born april 1st. My grandpa and his brothers always prank each other all the time, so no one believed him when he called to say grandma had given birth :D

Reply to comment by MtHoodMan in Japan and China Connect Military Hotline to Reduce Tensions by bloomberg
I donāt think this is accurate at all. Japan was 100% defeated militarily. They may have been able to kill a lot more people before the end, but there was zero doubt as to the outcome. The remaining Japanese military was a shell of its former self. Any punch they had left was just the sheer number of civilians they were going to enlist in suicidal last-stands. Plus the entire country was being starved out. They were no less defeated than the Nazis, and if japan wasnāt an island it probably would have happened much sooner.

Avoid the 10 cup nickel finish stainless steel cooker. They have the paper heating element that will go bad in a couple of years. Only way to get replacement part is in Taiwan.

Reply to comment by Llanite in Ukraine wants to stop its athletes from facing Russians by PrincessBananas85
Iāve been translating lots of interviews of Ukrainian athletes. Yes, they are not trained in Ukraine. 1) you think they can be calm like nothing had happened? 2) letās ignore the long-term consequences like rebuilding facilities which will take time - until the war ends and then until the funds come and restoration completes. So what, train in Europe for how long? 5 years? 10 years? All of those are short term contracts. Very stable environment. This btw also affects Ukrainian athletes as some of them think with despair of new generation of athletes that couldnāt receive the training. Thatās directly the words of biathlon athlete. How would you do the training for teens, get a team? Itās not like the regular āgo to this street 5 times a weekā itās āget on the bus, drive 24 hours, live there for half a yearā. Add to this how many Ukrainian athletes have died in the war and what trauma it gets to the people performing at Olympics. And facing the citizens of a country whose fault it is, who donāt even feel the consequences on them - they can train as usual. And all of these thoughts get into your head while training for something bigā¦
This isnāt about everyone else. Itās about russia, about facing consequences and about trauma. I think - and this is a completely Ukrainian pov - that this āsports transcends politicsā situation is heiwa boke or being ignorant. You simply putting more trauma to traumatised people.
Ok imagine thereās a school shooting, and you have to go to other school because yours is damaged, and face the person who killed your classmates and everyone tells you that school must transcend your pain, anger and missing the pre-tragedy times. Besides, the shooter might do or say something provocative again - and youāre supposed to do nothing.

I don't see anything in those paragraphs which addresses my question.

Reply to comment by Aginor23 in Cap on insulin cost now permanent in Washington by aagusgus
Slave labor is still quite common and encouraged by the "freemarket" and that's just the tip of the shitburg that is made of unfettered capitalism atrocities. Let's not forget child labor, union busting murder, Burnie madolf, and so on.
Markets need to be well regulated to balance the needs of the many against the greed of a few.

Youāre missing the point. Recognize that thereās inconsiderate people out there and that these minor inconveniences shouldnāt get you so upset.

Reply to What are some r/movies tropes? by HotSwordfish23
Posting about plotholes and clearly having no fucking clue what a plothole is.
Not understanding something about a movie that was so blatantly stated it makes you wonder if they had the sound on during viewing.
Posting an incredibly well-known movie with the question 'thoughts?' like they've discovered some hidden indie masterpiece.

Deliver Us The Moon.
I'm not saying it's an amazing 10/10 hidden gem or anything but I really enjoyed it and it's not the type of game I'd usually go for. I think a lot more people would enjoy it too if they even knew what it was.
I still need to play the sequel tbh.
