Italy has always been a joke, Hungary too
Greece was coming frighteningly close to nazism a few years back
It's so frustrating to see

Contact my fiancée, then the cops, then find myself a lawyer and spend the rest of my time absolutely shitting my pants
Fiancée first, because she's my highest priority in all things and the dead guy ain't getting deader. Then the cops, because to contact a lawyer first looks incredibly suspicious and I live in a civilised country where there is almost no police corruption and I wouldn't have cops trying to pin it on me out of convenience. The other reason I'd contact my fiancée first is that she's the smartest person I have ever known, and she would be straight onto organising shit to help
Yeah....
No
Star Wars was allegorical to the Vietnam War, as much as it was essentially a rip-off of Kurosawa, who was essentially doing a western
It's clearly a stab at the current US administration, and to compare that shitshow with anything else happening outside of countries that are dictatorships is absurd
It would definitely be unpleasant
No
But some glitter definitely comes through, as well as methylene blue
You'll shit smurfs
It's funny to dose someone's coffee or coke with it, because they'll pee green
What's obvious to us is not necessarily so to others
Particularly stupid racists.
Ohhhhhh...
No.
You don't.
Not even a little bit close
Working in a bar
I love people. I'm a people-person, but I kno know that I am remembering it through rose-tinted lenses
Most customers were average, a few were great, a fair number were dicks
But the hours, the late nights, the cost to my own social life, the lousy pay, the inability to eat normal meals at normal times, all of that shit takes a toll
But I still have some fond memories and occasionally think about opening a bar with my woman
Oh, and I was running a place with a long-term partner. Doing that shit was the final nail in the coffin of our relationship, so fuck that...
Yeah,
I have little faith that it wouldn't be superseded by something even more shitty
If this doesn't show just how racist and backwards 'Murica is, then I don't know what will
I'm not American!
And we do things our own way. We're both kinda unconventional people
The Australian election is a perfect example of people voting against something. It's not that Labor were particularly palatable (I personally voted for the Greens), but the alternate of Temu Trump was more than most people could countenance
The nation collectively voted for the lesser evil
I'm hugely relieved, but the most interesting thing is the vote from the younger cohort who have aged a bit. It's not news to anyone who pays attention to politics, but they usual shift rightward with age isn't happening to the same degree
