Quick, how many Arabic people believe in Shakira law? My son just left his litter box with his boxed hair dye and told me that his teacher wants everyone to convert to Islam by tomorrow.

Please help. Pray for our family.

    Sometimes i wonder what would have been if Bernie wouldn't have been blackballed. I feel like we would at least not be as shit of a nation as we are now because Trump would have never happened.

    It's more important to get the losers like Schumer, Pelosi, and Jeffries out first.

    You build a house from the foundation and the democrats have been blackballing progressives for their own monetary gain for... well forever.

    Depends where you're at. Tokyo they will mostly speak to you in Japanese, so i would attempt there. But I was in Okinawa for most of it, and most locals were good at English and used you to practice.

    Helped many kids fulfill their school projects by letting them ask you questions on the street, in English lol.

    It's no different to seeing someone in your country who can't speak. You both just figure it out together.

    I lived in Japan for 6 years. This is kind of true, but if you can point then you can get what you're after.

    I don't know, I thought half the fun of Japan was the not knowing what I would stumble on.

    Neil Degrasse Tyson said it best on why he hates algorithms, "they don't let me find anything, they take away the wonder".

    That doesn't surprise me. I was forced to live next door in Idaho for 5 years. WA state is not nearly as progressive outside of Seattle as you'd hope. I found out once I visited a few times.

    The whole eastern half of WA is pretty shit, politics included, imo.

    Talarico and Hinojosa winning is such a crazy thing to wake up to. Texas, and most of its citizens are still a lost cause, but good to see that there were enough good ones for once.

    Michigan is less surprising to me, but I'm glad Georgia showed up and got Ossof in.

    If only there was a vaccine for such a terrible illness...

    I love how the right can both apply the suffering, but also pray for it to go away...or worse, just act shocked to feign ignorance. Backwards people.
