The comment was phrased as trenchant criticism of the Japanese on a matter that is strictly their own business, calling them racist & xenophobic and contrasting them to the USA who 'do immigration well'. Do this, be more like

To give a counterexample of one, I've never been a user of Facebook (never signed up to FB, IG or WA) but I absolutely loathe the company and its sociopathic behaviour under Zuckerberg. I hate everything the company represents. I take

My understanding is that the deindustrialisation of the USA is largely a natural consequence of the 'exorbitant privilege' of having the world's global reserve currency (since Bretton Woods). This was identified as early as t

I would reverse this advice. See if you're fine with doing frequent walks before getting a (high energy) dog. Too many ppl get dogs and then don't properly walk them.

Some of it is just maintaining physical awareness of how you are walking (which it sounds like you're already somewhat doing). But one actual tip I would give is to lead with your chest when you walk. Oh, and let your arms swing freely

by oska 4y ago
I'd argue that what you are doing is treadmilling, not walking. Maybe an analogous activity but different in some important ways too.

I dislike coming across ppl on my walks who are loudly talking to someone on a phone whilst walking along. I find it bizarre behaviour.

One very obvious difference is that twitter does not purport to be a forum for any particular community or field of interest. So in that sense it's much more of a town square in that ppl can (or should be able to) tweet about anything.

No-one is defending the owner of the account asking for more money in response to Elon asking them to take it down and offering some compensation. However, they didn't take the initiative to approach Elon first and ask for money for

And I just pointed out to you that the movement of private planes is already far more public than the movement of private cars, and for good reasons. The account isn't (as far as I know, I've never looked at it) actually doing the

Just to play Devil's Advocate, the account is only tracking the movement of Elon's jet, not Elon himself. I don't know if you can consider that 'stalking' when, different to a private car, the movement of private pl

This isn't the place for such a debate. There needs to be a proper legal inquiry into the massacre; not trial by media. I wasn't making any assertions of my own as to who was responsible; I was just pointing out that responsibilit
