My annual check-up revealed some health issues, which made me change my lifestyle a lot. I can clearly see how it can promote longevity.

Btw, which inaka would you consider? Looking at the summers this year, I feel the northern parts would still be livable in the future.

Umm, the “free markets” aren’t what they seem like either.

 

Disgusting excuse for a human being

Why is “private forest ownership” a thing?

Did they just used “anti-fascist” as an insult?

The Schrödinger argument, there is freedom or not based on what you ask.

I am looking for any article/post that explains the involvement of China in Myanmar from a leftist perspective. From what I know from a Myanmar acquaintance, there is an overall negative sentiment towards China because they support the junta, giving China control over trade & industries.

(Let me know if this post belongs in a different community)

 

Read the article at your own risk of dying from disgust

Of all of them, the "America’s racism" one is something that even the most propagandized westerner would have a hard time reading without a fit of laughter, at least I hope so.

Lies! We are all just shell scripts.

Agreed, I think I meant hypocritical in the sense of how Russia is pushing for a more multipolar world and less reliance on the west.

 

In the midst of European nation’s unrest over the energy crisis, if Russia resumes it’s supply, wouldn’t that be hypocritical and, more concerning, reverse the progress the world has made towards the destruction of this wretched hegemony?

No it doesn’t help much at all, just to an extent of recognizing some Kanjis (but also misunderstanding some).

The similarity in Japanese and Chinese ends at Kanji characters and even though the meaning of a kanji is often close in both languages, the pronunciation? pretty rarely.

Japanese didn’t have a writing system and loaned characters from Chinese to record the spoken language. This lead to a mix of vocabulary from both languages as they started using multiple words for the same meaning, one coming from the spoken Japanese and others loaned from the Chinese.

The structure of these two languages bears no similarity at all.

Source: I asked this same question to my native Japanese teacher who knew a bit of Chinese.
