@CitizenAmedia Stop being giant assholes on the world stage then. Stop shitting on Europeans while bitching about losing base access there after. Stop tariffing your friends and allies. Stop pissing over your fence on Canadas lawn and stop yelling racist slurs at the Mexicans on their side.

Sean W. Malone | That’s just, like, your opinion.
What's funny about all this to me is that Europeans *could* have adopted the same approach that we've all seen within Japanese and American conversations for the last couple months, where they say "Look at this beautiful/cool thing about my country!" and then we say "That's gorgeous, check this out!" and send something of our own in return. Instead, they go "My country is so much better at yours, look at THIS you stupid Yank!" And it's just a castle that we know was built 400 years ago and that their current culture would say was a waste of effort, or it's a mountain that's not really any prettier (and is in some cases much less attractive) than dozens we have here, or it's a north Atlantic beach that's nowhere near as nice as a hundred you'll find from South Carolina to Florida or the Gulf. Like... Hey, you wanna see something cool? There's an enormous, underground lake in Tennessee that they call "The Lost Sea". Fish live in it because something like 70 years ago some scientists thought it'd be cool to drop some in and see if they could help them map the cave (they still have no idea who deep the lake is or how far into the mountains it goes). They figured the fish would eventually "find their way out" and if they tracked them they could find other entrances and exits and stuff. Turns out, the fish never left, so they have boat tours down there (which I've done), and you feed the fish while exploring the lake. The fish have to be fed either way, since there's nothing else living in there, and they just follow the boat in this super deep, perfectly clear water lit by electric lighting installed a hundred years ago. Another weird story from that lake is that a long time ago, probably during prohibition, somebody built a 100'+ ladder going straight down into the cave and people used to hide out down there and make moonshine. Over time, they started having parties down there, and they kept doing it until some drunk guy climbed halfway up that ladder to go home and fell off. We don't use the ladder anymore. This is the largest underground lake in the US and 2nd largest in the entire world at 4.5 acres. The largest is in Nambia (4.9 acres), so you're not going to find anything quite like this anywhere else on the planet -- including, obviously, in Europe. Now... The normal thing to do upon learning this fact is say "Wow, that's neat!" and if you want to follow up by giving me a neat thing from your area, I'd be thrilled to see it. That's what all my Japanese bros do, and it's awesome. Instead, the Euros come on here and go "That's RUBBISH mate, and I'd never go to Tennessee because of all the gross hillbillies. They'd probably shoot me because they're all packing guns, and their redneck stupidity will rub off on me somehow. Besides, that's not a REAL lake anyway." Feck off.

New Hampshire is smaller than South Carolina and handily beats this. The cope is so sad. At least you have pretty ruins!

@reallyoptimized I suppose it depends where you go? I’ve only been to Europe once but was blown away by the high quality of food 😍😍😍

Yet the internet keeps trying to convince me that the food quality in Europe is so much better than the USA. It's not. It's atrocious. The selection is dismal, too. Don't expect to find the endless healthy options that are readily available in the USA.
Thomas Hornall@Thomashornall

Moved to Norway and shocked at the food system. Supermarkets are essentially big corner shops. Processed slop, tinned/packaged stuff everywhere, while fish, chicken beef, fruit/veg are very expensive. Around 50% of all food sold in Norway is now ultraprocessed

@Annansii It’s depressing. The city was a shithole in the 70s and 80s but was cleaned up by Guiliani and maintained by Bloomberg through 2010ish. And under liberals it’s back to being a cesspool.

He venido hace poco de New York, os cuento: Este viaje me ha dejado traumatizada. Yo me crie en Barcelona y muchas veces he pensado que Barcelona está fatal, pero creo firmemente después de haber visto New York que aún hay hueco para la degradación... He flipado con lo sucio, pobre, asqueroso y en mal estado que está New York. Es lo que venden como primer mundo al tercer mundo supongo, porque nadie con dos dedos de frente le parece "normal" tener una ciudad en tal estado. Sinceramente, después de este viaje siento que estoy más preparada que nunca para ir a la India. Me llevo de esta experiencia el volver a Washington, creo firmemente que le daré unas semanas a esa ciudad para disfrutarla, me ha parecido brutal.

The average new home in 1955 did not have: • HVAC. It probably had baseboard heating (either electric or hot water) or if you were lucky, ducted heat. “AC” was an attic evacuator fan. • dishwasher • multi-car garage • finished basement • multiple bathrooms

It's weird when you go shopping for a car because you realize there's about 1 million different cars and somehow none are right for you. Is this a market failure or me being weird?

@Dea_rMen I don’t see a spot for the litter box so this wouldn’t be good for single women with cats. That wasn’t the question but that’s the answer I’m giving since people on Twitter just make things up all day anyway.

@ChrisMartzWX They call us Yanks because when we kicked them out the majority of the country were living in the areas one would call people Yanks. The northeast. Seems like a pretty logical thought process on my end.

Europeans, particularly Brits, love calling Americans “yanks.” Thing is, that doesn’t land unless you’re from New England. I’m from Virginia and live in Alabama. I’m far from a “yank.”

In 1992 Al Gore predicted that within two decades, Florida would lose 60% of its population due to climate change. Today, 34 years later, Florida's population is 425% higher than it was in 1992.

@walterwhitepill Let me get this straight Parks are paid for and maintained by tax money and citizens still have to pay to access it. And we are proud of charging foreigners 2x our costs? Here’s a better idea US citizens pay 0 Non US Citizens pay $30

You don’t hear about it but the admin 3x’d the cost for a foreigner to enter our national parks. Used to be the same for foreigners and Americans, it’s now $35 for US residents and $100 for non-residents

@walterwhitepill Yeah, because your pedo in chief decided that tourism wasn’t a good thing and made stupid decisions to push people away. This is low on the list of the dumbest things American do but it’s on there.
