everyone should slam that horror show of nato leaders kissing trump's tiny hands and calling him daddy. it was so cringey.

many of these mines will end up being washed by some flood, unfortunately. and end up where they shouldn't get.

i don't think it should be up to them to dictate how things are going to finish, especially when their enemy is still standing and so far the result of their attacks represented a nuisance at best. if they want to chant victory after achieving "that", things are gonna get even more ridiculous.

but mexico has got way more parties than pri, so much that most candidates winning elections do so with a broad alliance. in fact since 2000 pri only had a single term.

plus there is the bonus of schadenfreunde, since they always want to balkanize countries that happen to stand in their path.

then in a sense the west is the biggest ally the islamic government can have, because they are succeeding in rallying the iranian people, even those who are oppressed, to defend their country. and that despite the ayatollahs: so far just small unrepresentative groups are calling for an uprising against the regime. even the tudeh and the toufan are condemning the israeli intervention, and they have plenty of reasons to hate the regime.

out of these things you said, so far iran is guilty of only requiring women to stay covered and, to a degree, child marriage (it's not a state policy, but marriage with girls as young as 9 years old is legal). as far as i know women in iran can drive (the last country where women were not allowed to drive was US ally saudi arabia) and are free to move around, work, study and such, notwithstanding the challenges that women face there (legal discrimination and the oppression that they suffer just by living in a capitalist country).

however, the liberation of women in iran won't come imposed by other nation states, especially the western capitalist ones, and certainly won't come as a result of a war against israel. they don't give a damn about the iranian people, be they women, queer, religious or ethnic minorities. the sionist establishment just want anyone that menace their grip over middle east off their necks, and that's what the iranian bourgeoisie are doing right now.

if you ask me what i think would be better, the working classes of both countries would team up to seize their military apparatuses and turn them against their elites. if that's not possible, anything that hurts western imperialism gives the world a small victory, regardless of whoever achieves them. we can take care of whoever punches the west later.

there's these two australian projects that i like: tarot and gloomy reflections (they have the same producer, btw). however, when i play their radio in youtube music, there are two bands that the algorithm puts in the playlist: "matango" and "bl#ck m#gick $s", which have disturbing n@zi iconography. i always downvote and block them.

please tell me, if you know them, that these first guys are not related to those n@zis.

 

erdogan is a cuck.

 

boooooooooooooooy...

 

My two cents: this whole war began to oppose Russia's meddling with Donetsk and Luhansk, and now the whole country belongs to the US. And still there's no guarantee that they're gonna get those two oblasts and Crimea back.

Honestly, if Ukraine was to be plundered by Russia, EU and the US, the best move was to bring Makhno back from the dead anyway. Or go red.

 

At least since yesterday, I can't see almost any add-on that really matters. I'm in Brazil btw.

 

You find someone interesting on Instagram (or Tinder/happn/Bumble if they left their IG handle there), though their profile is restricted. You add that person, which accepts you, sometimes after two or three months. You leave a private message to that person, thanking it for accepting you as a follower, and asking if it wants to talk. Then, silence. Or worse yet, exchanges a few phrases and then ghosts you out of nowhere, without explanation or if you didn't said anything rude.

I mean, no one owes anyone anything in a situation like that, of course, but why bother opening a pathway in the first place, instead of just refusing? And if you find that other not really interesting after some conversation, though not really creepy or weird or over-the-top, why not be polite and say "look, this is not going to work, I don't want to talk to you anymore" or "this thing you said is a red flag for me, bye, take care"?

What bothers me is like, don't we talk anymore like normal people are supposed to? Have personal connections become so disposable like that? Or am I just freaking out and perhaps just need to find out somewhere in the real world where I could bond more easily with real people?

 

Pretty straightforward: what tips and advice would you give me if I were to start an open source project of a game? Where to share my intention of beginning this project, where to find contributors, how to organize the workflow etc.

 

~~Pretty straightforward: where does the awareness that porn wrecks your mind and sexuality stops and where does simply conservatism towards sexuality begins (even in cases akin to bolshe morality)?~~

EDIT: okay, better clarifying it - i came across some video from some youtuber claiming that pornography is evil, period. and that there are things such as "metapornography", which could apply to someone in instagram posting videos of themselves in scant dressing and claiming likes of it. and that no-fap and anti-masturbation movements are good things.

i was really confused about that since that person came from apparently a progressive-yet-moralistic background. but talking to other people to see if some of my impressions checked, it came to my mind that it was a heavily directed video intended to attract left-leaning people to a conservative agenda. my bad.

 

I'm in the course of pursuing a change in my career towards software engineering/architecture. So far I've been brought mostly to C#/.NET and Java, though Java attracts me more, even considering that it might be a "dying" language. Still, Scala and Clojure are there, so I thought that they might give a pump at least to JVMs. In your opinion, should I invest in pursuing certifications/jobs in this field, or sticking to C#/.NET is a better path?
