Ukraine: "Am I a joke to you?"

I wish Organic Maps was a bit more up to date for my area (a smallish town in a semi-rural area of Japan). I'd use it if it were, but I also can't be expected to update the whole city on my own.

The Too-canny Valley

If you take a view of America as it truly is and truly has been, rather than an idealized view of what it could be or says it is, it's hard to say that America is the superior option, especially considering the direction that America has been going over the last 30-50 years.

At least Chinese investments in renewable energy and sciences and general human development are actually underway, unlike the United States, which seems hell bent on halting or reversing all of the above. And this is not even a trump thing, that has been the trend for most of my adult life, at least as far as I can tell: Rising anti-intellectualism, gutting the arts, science denial, and doubling or tripling down on non-renewable energy sources have been the milieu in the USA as long as I can remember, having been born there in 1990.

 

This is mostly because I've been bedridden for about a week or so; as well, while this is not the most exciting of posts, I thought that somebody should post something here so that there's content, so I decided to step up.

What games are you guys and gals and non-binary pals playing?

Hey, I studied at Sophia and even met Dr. Mari, even if just in passing! Neat!

Jesus, man. I don't know what it's worth to you but I at least read the whole thing. You seem like an alright person who's just been punted around by the failures of the US to care for its own: hiding carcinogen information, making unhealthy food the economical/convenient choice, not to mention I'm sure that navigating the health care system was a nightmare.

Yeah like, I have a very good friend who is in Argentina and I care a lot about the country as a result. I'd love to visit someday...

Two that are related to falling

猿も木から落ちる [Even] monkeys fall out of trees [too]. Just because you're good at something doesn't mean you'll always get it right.

七転び八起き Fall down 7 times, get up 8. Pretty self-explanatory

Where are you seeing these people willing to talk about one but not the other? Show us your work. Or is this something that just “sounds true“ so you’re assuming it happens? My guess is it’s the latter.

Generally in Facebook comments really. But I did say that mine was a superficial observation...

That's fair; my interest is only passing and my experiences are limited.

Lake Biwa in Japan. (lemmy.world)
submitted 3 weeks ago by EtnaAtsume to c/pics
 

...uh...

As opposed to Lake Biwa, not in Japan.

 
 

Konjac noodles, mushrooms, bell pepper and onion. Oh and carrot too. Seasoned kind of at random. If anyone's desperate to know I can try to recall.

Some Memes That Helped Me (self.anorexiarecovery)
 

Maybe they won't help you, but I found it therapeutic to learn to laugh in Ana's face rather than cower away from her.

 

 

Green peppers, onions, white button mushrooms, cauliflower rice, sauteed in avocado oil and seasoned with...eh...whatever. Kinda threw on anything I had lying around, wasn't paying too close attention.

It looked better before it was finished.
