Deng literally introduced market reforms to do so. This is not the own you think it is

Had a moment of online culture shock when I recently saw people commenting on how gross eating ass is and assertions that all the talk about it is people being ironic and joking. Someone even had the gall to respond with “haha keep telling yourself that buddy” when someone said that people have been eating ass forever! Have you heard of the romans??

It’s so jarring to suddenly crash into a totally different culture like that. Like you ran into a caveman at the grocery store

The number of OPEC countries on that list is certainly something. Probably the most important determinant for how the future of this group will play out. Currency sovereignty is neat and all but oil makes the world spin

Is this actually that common of a thing? I try to stay away from the trash side of anime, which is to say a solid majority of it nowadays and especially anything that could be described with the word harem, but I struggle to accept the apparent reality that slave romances are a common trope in the genre. Like that’s straight against the wall, do not pass go, do not collect $200 kind of behavior and to think that that has such an audience that it’s become a staple of the genre is maddening. In the lovecraftian sense

Playing through Bethesda games but taking the main plots seriously completely changes the flow of the games. Right now I’m replaying FNV and actually pursuing Benny like he shot me in the head. I made it to Novac and just said fuck it I know he’s going to the strip, I’m not wasting time with these ghouls in the repconn facility. Going to be interesting seeing how the dialogue shifts when I go back through these earlier level areas after completing much of the main quest

The development of nationalism and its consequences has been a disaster for the socialist project

This process of blowback is exactly why I think arming Ukraine is going to result in nightmare scenarios in the future, or how I learned to stop worrying and love the new reboot of 24 but about Slavs this time

Wise enough to know the value of foreplay
