Can’t help but notice that all this talk of “the right to self government” is always appended to paragraphs firmly talking about what the US wants and the US does.

I am not a US citizen and there are plenty of instances of the US government not supporting self-determination. I was talking about myself and I would hope most people’s opinion worldwide, not some governement.

The PRC didn’t invade Tawia when they the ROC’s army fled there. Is that because of the USA? Taiwan has been seperate from China for almost eighty years now, that’s a long time!

There were socialist mayors in the USA so they actually won elections, I think that’s more succesfull that getting loads of votes.

Dems started pre-blaming black men a couple days ago so who knows.

I doubt they think that. You’re being ridiculous. Taiwan is de facto independent, and there is some push over there to declare independence officially. The ROC is of a different era at the end of the day.

The USA doesn’t officially recognize the ROC but it is US law that consular, travel and business relations between them. Nancy Pelosi travelled to Tawain only a couple years ago.

Anyway, the rights for all people to self-govern themselves should come first over all that.

I wonder what a “softline” is for a member of the Israeli government

I though a lot of their industry was also built on real cheap electricity thanks to them building their factories near dams and the like.

Considering the recent problems Cuba’s facing hopefully this could bring more than just talk.

too many zeroes I can’t read that number omg

Apparently some apps ask Google Play if it’s an official android OS.

Honestly some use way more than a roll a month.

Like you, I’ve never understood TP panic vying. I have a years stock too

Thank you for the link! Kinda want to try that seems so different than what I use…

Used to live in an old house that was already in official documents since the revolution. So not too bad. Walls were so thick…

Maybe including overseas territory?

I used to watch let’s plays as a teen because I couldn’t play the games myself… Also used to talk about some of them at school with friends so like watching a TV show I guess.

I used to watch a lot of YouTube stuff (like probably a good ten hours a week) for years. Since covid lock down (4 years ago!) I have barely watched anything on it. I still add videos to my watch later play list but I know I’ll never watch them all as I’ve got hundreds of videos there…

Is that because of a shitty microphone and speaker in the phones? Couldn’t just use some headphones to solve this?

Is that just a small piece of bamboo that you cut or something transformed. I can’t seem to find much information searching for bamboo pot scra

I personally would always prefer saying boy girl man woman over male and female. Whener I first saw it used it was always in a negative context like “young black male” in regard to some crime to give the opposite example. Just like in French I think it’s weird to refer to humans with male and female, although accurate of course, as I would only expect it in for animals.

I agree the idea of people wearing some Google glasses does kinda terrify me. At least with a phone you can see when somebody is filming you or not paying attention to you but reading their emails or whatever.

The US gives you that money ever year 1re filling fro taxes to the US on your German income?
