Americans dropped nukes on Japan twice and now they‘re best friends. Americans defended Europeans for free the past 80 years and they are the most ungrateful pricks imaginable. There is a lesson to be learned there.

Spain has announced that will boycott the 2026 World Cup and Eurovision if Israel takes part

But let’s actually talk about the convenience store noodle system in Thailand vs Japan. Please no fighting. In Thailand, if you want instant noodles, you pick one out, then go to the noodle station and pour hot water, and then pay. After that, you either sit down and eat or leave with your food. Why is it convenient? In Thailand, the prep happens while you’re waiting anyway, so you’re overlapping tasks. But in Japan, everything is sequential, so total time can be longer for the individual customer, even if the system itself is more controlled? Thailand: pick > prepare > queue > pay > eat Japan: pick > queue > pay > prepare > wait > eat Both societies already operate on high interpersonal trust, so I’m confused why Japanese consumers follow corporate rules that don’t make sense? 7-11 rules don’t count as “culture or tradition” so that reasoning can’t be used lol You also can’t blame foreigners, this system has been in place in Thailand for years, and Thailand is also a tourist hub yet everything works fine and saves consumers 1-3 minutes in waiting time per meal.

I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran. This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war. Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons. I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late. Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.

Lee Kuan Yew: I would work with the Australians and New Zealanders but not the Americans

Saudi thinking Muslims should not question them because they house Makkah and Madinah is very funny. For the avoidance of doubt, if they do not stop allowing the US & Israel to launch attack against Iran from their soil, Iran should protect its people and sovereignty against them. Makkah and Madinah will be fine.

Bahraini authorities arrested a critic of the war on Iran. The appearance of his dead body days later, reportedly bearing marks of apparent torture while in custody, has ignited fierce public outcry.
