That picture hurts soo much…

Starving kid embracing its mom, loving her unconditionally. Mom’s eyes full of desperation… Powerful image…

It’s not a genocide anymore. We should start calling it what it is, a holocaust. The entire systematic destruction/eradication of a people, not just the murder of them, but the entire structural destruction of one.

Except for musquitos. They’re fair game.

The father complained that his daughter got refused entry into Canada and was then detained in the US. If she would have had the correct paperwork for Canada, nothing would’ve happened.

But I agree, my rant is a bit out of place in here. Not the right place to relieve stress about dealing with entitled white people :)

While the US is going batshit insane, fuck white people that ignore visa requirements.

Most countries have very clear visa regulations, especially for short term visas. If you travel to the US and Canada as a European white person and you get refused entry because your paperwork is not OK, that is entirely on you. I deal with those entitled people on the regular. It’s satisfying to see them not being able to use their white card. L2read and prepare.

If you’re not white and European, that’s a different story unfortunately…

(and just to be clear, I absolutely do not agree with what Drumpf is doing, the guy and his cronies and enables are criminals…)

Have you seen his ears? It’s Macro Dumbo Rubio

The weird thing is that once you get a foot in the door, Japanese immigration policies actually aren’t that strict. You just need a guarantor (company) to be willing to hire you.

The language barrier and hesitancy of companies to hire non-Japanese is the actual barrier, not so much the immigration policies themselves. The government could ofcourse encourage companies to hire foreigners…but Japan changes at a glacial pace.

I’m sure they’ll be ready to deal with the new world under trump by 2035-40

Half the foreigners survive on the shitty education system though. No need to organize mass deportations in Japan. Just stop English education and 50% of white guys are gone instantly.

Really? Been using a logitech trackball at work for 14 years now. My k750 keyboard lasted me almost 10y until the battery completely gave up and I wanted to upgrade. My Mx keys has lasted me for years since.

Similar stories for my mice, none of them have failed, I’ve only upgraded because I wanted lighter, more/less buttons or for other reasons.

I wanted to vote for them, I did so last time, but they didn’t appear on the ballot in my country this time. Couldn’t vote for them…

It’s interesting that cheerleaders still dress like that in Japan imo. Habits are hard to change, especially in the land of the rising sun :)

National fashion became very conservative in the past 10-15 years. Like almost not even a bare shoulder conservative. Skirts also became much longer in recent times. The ultra mini skirts that Japan was famous for are also on their way out. The whole legging craze that hit the rest of the world never even made it to Japan.

Just let the cheerleaders wear more clothes?

Time to go touch some grass mate :)

Luckily they’re in NATO (and the eu), so they wouldn’t be left alone on a technicality as Ukraine.

Anyone worth their salt knows win+D tbh. The button is unnecessary

Did you see the “tents” they have? A wooden cube frame made with 2x4s and a plastic sheet draped over it. I wouldn’t keep my pigs in such a shitty thing, let alone human beings…

“their country”

Expanse is like reading an amazing and realistic adventure.

Hyperion is like reading an adventure while high on shrooms.

They’re both very well written and entertaining, but so different in their set-up.

Currently in my life I prefer realistic style scifi over mind bending stuff, so I’d recommend the expanse. .

Interesting article image :) Lemmy glitch? Or bbc glitch?

Are they similarly funny? Or more serious?

Have you actually seen Japan social media usage? They’re like the second largest Twitter market in the world. Why would they be more attuned to Mastodon vs Twitter?
