@AnarchoNinaWrites i'm putting my money on the country just balkanizing especially with how much of trump policy is just about punishing the "blue" parts of the country and eventually people will just get sick of that shit and take their ball and go home
@skinnylatte oh yeah I guess it makes sense people would think of it as like Asian food when it is really more like English-Japanese food since somehow Japan got curry by way of the British instead of from greater Asia
@skinnylatte like I know Japanese culture kind of broadly breaks cooking up into three main branches (traditional Japanese, Chinese, "western") and curry is considered western food
I like how the trump administration has taken something implied for decades and made it explicit:
"terrorist" and "national security" and "national emergency" are just magic words you can invoke whenever you don't want to give any justification for whatever it is you're doing
this is an interesting article about things that Japanese bosses can say that seem motivating but are really not, but it also touches on how in Japan there is discourse about "power harassment" in workplaces where people with authority use their positions to abuse the people under them
and that seems like a discourse we could really use over here tbh
@skinnylatte a few months back I was offered soup or a cup of soymilk with some Chinese food I ordered and I decided to try the cup of soy milk and that was the first time I had ever had it as just a beverage and I loved it so now I always have it in my fridge
i never understood how like a human can play with a tiger and not immediately die because I'm used to normal cats quickly getting overstimulated and getting a bit bitey and I assume that would just be game over with a tiger
