40 C, humid, hazy as fuck so everything is sticky and grimey, mad unpleasant
Global warming finally got me thinking about getting air conditioning
me too, shit fucked up
We had to install 2 units before spring came (parents’ room and living room) and now we have to get one for our our room as well, because it’s so hot, the other 2 units can not sustain the healthy 5 degrees in other places of the house.
Neverness to Everness! A blend of GTA and GI.
Wat dat
An upcoming game made by the developers of Tower of Fantasy.
Holy shit Genshin Theft Auto
I’d play that.
I looked at r/olympics and just now whenever I saw something about Israel participating, pro-Palestinian comments were downvoted or removed and pro-Israeli comments upvoted. Goddamnit.
it’s a liberal server dominated by westerners and those from the third world who fetishise western ways and western thought, like most of these big subreddits, it’s no surprise honestly
this week had a good ending. lmao
“Reddit”
There’s your issue.
I also made the mistake of browsing some reddit yesterday and holy shit it took me a few hours to recover from the brainrot
Yeah
this whole thread was a cluster fuck
some jumped in.
First mistake was listening to Orwell…
That’s also the second and third mistake.
it’s somehow that the nordic countries are socialists because of some basic welfare, but China and Cuba who have even more welfare aren’t socialist? even in their shitty understanding of socialism they don’t apply logic
How’s everyone?
All good American comrade. Also, if I may ask, you seem to have dropped the “CPUSA” tag from your username, any particular reason for that?
When was this done? According to https://www.unrwa.org/tags/india the latest such donation was in 2022.
Recently, couple days ago. Indian embassy in Palestine announced on their Instagram. Might take some time to be reflected in the records. This is part of a new $100 million plan and this was the first tranche.
I see nothing.
India gave a big help to Palestine! First installment of 2.5 million dollars released.
India will provide 5 million in aid to Palestinian refugees through UNRWA this year.That’s good, at least.
🤨 BJP govt did this?
Not willingly, they can’t easily forsake India’s tradition of helping Palestine as easily as they would like.
Hard to believe, I know
A funny (sad?) observation I made while on holiday in Madeira. In Belgium we hire a lot of Portugese construction workers as they are cheaper than Belgian ones. But, over here in Portugal, they seem to hire Bangladesh or Indian workers for the same reason. Funny how capitalism works, right?
Hungarian workers go to work in the UK, Germany or Austria, while some Romanian, Ukrainian or Slovaks come here. The remaining 2 of the top 5 are the Philipino and Chinese nationalities.
how much of this is true?

any cuban comrade here?
I’m currently sitting on an Island. I’m staying in a house that has a deck with a view on the Atlantic Ocean. I’m surrounded by green and by some sort of farms. One of the locals gave me a basket full of bananas and figs from one of the farms. It will be perfect weather all week.
In situations like this I wonder why I bother living in an expensive country with constant rain and miserable people. I’m aware things won’t be perfect in a place like this either but I’m willing to bet I’d be a bit happier.
Yeah, Mediterranean is great. Turkey is great. Dominican Republic is great. I wish I was there.
Edit: I’m Turkish and Dominican, btw.
Moments like this are bittersweet because you kinda realise how things that make life shitty are unnecessarily shoved upon you an inefficient and oppressive socioeconomic system for the benefit for a tiny minority.

As a British person I can relate.
That sounds wonderful! I Joel your vacation goes well! : )
Update on my previous comment: I have returned from my vacation
Been gone for a while, hows lemmygrad? It looks like less people are leaving comments since last time i was here.
It might not be a trend, maybe it’s just how people’s lives are each week. As well as the shared content might not be as ‘commentable’, but people still upvote, as far as I see.
It goes through phases.
Yemen is not fucking around with its sea drones: https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/yemeni-forces-release-footage-of-attack-on-chios-lion-in-red
