It also directly goes to politicians through AIPAC

Housing isn’t really much of an issue in Japan. The actual issie with tourists is overcrowding, bad behavior, and the effect on food prices

I dunno if I’d have the balls to just roll into a tiny pub in rural Ireland without knowing anyone there.

Coincidentally, I did that a couple months ago. 10/10, would recommend. Everyone was super friendly and interested in why we ended up there, in a village of less than 100 people

Refuse tourist into many Izakayas for decades

I’ve been to probably 100 izakaya and never once been denied. This is the kind of bullshit you say when your views of Japan come from the internet rather than personal experience

The design is reminiscent of the Cybertruck

Seems weird to have flat armor paneling. Wouldn’t you want to try to deflect shots?

Japan, unlike the US, shows final total price on the shelves/product. Customers know what they’ll pay the whole time

I doubt a business will have many customers if they’re charging significantly more than their competitors due to still charging taxes

I have no intention of voting for another pro-corporate, “my turn” Democrat. If we don’t end up with her, or another actual progressive, I think a whole lot of Democrats will be completely turned off the party

The CDC first learned of the outbreak when it was publicly confirmed, despite the fact that there’d been rumors of an outbreak for weeks. This represents a notable change for the US government, which has historically played a key role in responding to rumored outbreaks in places like DRC and, if the rumors are confirmed to be true, helping to stop the outbreak.

It feels like the US government is on the sidelines this time

Yet another aspect the US is no longer a world leader in

Based greyhat

Nathan, an American Jew from Brooklyn who preferred not to give his last name, told +972. “It’s very sad to me that after the [1967] war Arabs were allowed back — that was a big mistake, and I hope they won’t make those mistakes in Gaza and in Lebanon.”

Openly admitting to wanting ethnic cleansing. Deeply evil people

Reunification now seems permanently off the table for both sides. Sad to think about

His pool giy is making a whole lot off this contract. Millions of dollars of tax payer money

The biggest thing with this fiasco is that he awarded the contract to his buddy. Blatant corruption

FOIA requests for Flock data are much more permanent solutions to them

So far pretty much every jurisdiction has removed them instead of complying with FOIA requests for footage/data

Right? I just want nothing to do with Israel. The middle east is so fucking complicated and nothing we ever helps the situation. Let’s just do whatever keeps trade moving and avoids war

They’ll say every country to broadcasting their solo performance is antisemitic

What does feddit.org do around Israel?

Considering 2027 is a likely time for China to attack, it’s rather problematic that Trump is in charge. I rather like Taiwan being an independent nation

Not useful for at home systems either

No, they’re perfectly fine for home systems

But that’s not what is being done? It’s a separate sport divorced from the source material now
