Actually one thing I kinda wonder is how pets might react to some of this stuff...

You know, oddly enough I don’t think I’ve ever heard of this particular thing being done in authoritarian regimes. All sorts of ways to target protesters, but I’m not aware of a case where the regime has done this.

And the winner for Best Director is PEPE THE FROG!!!!!

To be fair, “voted no on every Trump appointment” isn’t really a great metric, as a few of them aren’t horrible (e.g. Mattis for DOD head).

Many Americans are just overweight, but “healthy/average” does kinda vary amongst different populations, and many Asians simply have a slim build.

Based on what I’m reading on reddit.com/r/psvr people are having extremely positive experience with the game in VR, some going as far to say it’s finally the killer app that PSVR has been waiting for.

Looking at some of these other replies, most of you are outright terrible human beings. I mean fuck, people...I thought a tad of empathy for people trying to get by was a thing.

I travel extensively on business to Japan and the Shinkansen is a wonderful way to travel.

All public transit systems lose money. Every single one.

In case nobody has posted this already, as the tweet says, it is perfect:

I don’t think it’s so much a case of greed as it is “old Japanese men (the stakeholders) stuck in their ways, not wanting to take (percieved, but obviously non-existent) risks.”

I’m trying to figure out the joke that makes infinitesimally mean something other than what it does.

This is a great idea- the only thing is in prison you want something to do with your hands. I want her to be able to trace easily and color for when she needs to distract herself

All Melania’s allowed to do is say how amazing her husband is, how the media hates them, and wear pretty clothes.

There’s more sparkle between the Carters than between those two.

I don’t think it makes sense to call either listening or reading “superior,” but I agree with JessMariano that it’s a bit misleading to refer to listening as “reading.”

Each NATO countries should spend more on defense to match their promise of 3% from total GDP. Only US, UK, and Poland meet this criteria

The swastika is inverted. Not the same symbol.

Green crosses are ubiquitous in Japan with the meaning “safety” (e.g. it’s very common to see it in factories/worksites in the phrase 「安全✚第一」), and sometimes it spills over into related areas, e.g. you find it used on first-aid kits.
