Go read up on videogame addiction. Reduces grey matter in the brain. Having socially isolated kids who only play games alone is damaging. Having kids touch grass in order to help avoid that is good.

"Least obvious psyop" after spewing straight up BS. Okay lol

I'm done goodbye

Look man I'm not gonna respond to anymore of this stuff. I just want to point out that most of what you said the first time is untrue and then you just double down and list a bunch of other things as truisms.

Be a little critical of narratives about places you know nothing about yeah?

Religious books are not banned. There are millions of christians in China. There are millions of Muslims in China. Reducing hours of video game playing could greatly assist with insane amount of hours that come with game addiction. It probably needs workshopped more but I personally think this change in coordination with providing youth with solid after school programs and activities would be good for long-term health and well being. That TikTok thing is BS. People in China watch just as much brainrot on douyin. Winnie the Pooh is beloved by people in China. Literally go around for five minutes and you'll see his face plastered on shirts bags and as stuffed animals. As for the companies, this is good if true. Fuck companies doing whatever they want and hurting people. I hope they continue to have significant government oversight.

Xinjiang is a more complex situation but if you look into it all accusations of genocide come from one source, Adrian Zens. He's a CIA asset who claims god revealed to him that it's his mission to destroy China. I'm gonna listen to the Muslim countries (and the UN) that came and inspected the region and said nah it's chill.

Have you ever talked to someone from there? I have and just asking them about this shit is really useful for learning that 80 percent of this stuff is untrue, and 20 percent is misconstrued.

That's the thing, if a lie is a big as the ones you present here, everyone would know. Yet here we are and the average person from china will complain about a lot of things but never the things you brought up here.

Other people have tried gum and not had it help them. I find it pretty helpful for me so far. I'm now two weeks in and I only chew 2 pieces a day now. Only have it when smelling others' cigarette smoke triggers my cravings. Overall, I'm gonna try to quit the gum by the end of next week.

I will note that I seem to have way easier of a time with nicotine withdrawal than other people I've talked to.

Probably Alaska but that feels like cheating

I mean, she's also in a current legal battle for her future right now. I dunno about y'all but I'd sing whatever song my lawyer told me to. I don't feel as though me standing by my beliefs in this situation would particularly benefit anyone.

Feels criminal to call it a newspaper comic. It really transcends the medium

Yeah I guess I just have trouble with it feeling "namey".

But also good point. You've given me something to think about.

 

Pretty much just the title. Every Sunday we get together and play for 4 hours and honestly there are like 100 things I'd rather do. I love DnD shows and content (which I acknowledge aren't actually existing DnD) so I keep getting suckered into giving it a try.

I just hate to quit mid session because thats rude and is a pain to everyone else but also I don't want to spend 4 hours every Sunday on my day off doing something I'm not enjoying.

How do I end this lightly? Can I?
