You’re probably joking, but in the article it states that these people showed Xi around Iowa like 40 years ago when he was part of some farming committee. They left such a good impression on him that apparently they’ve stayed in touch. It’s really sweet honestly. In the article he says something like “to me, these people are america”
This is honestly just so wholesome.
Hasn’t Bernie revealed himself to be quite pro-israel? Quite a few comments here have been saying he is just as jingoistic as a typical liberal / conservative.
ah my bad. I just remember the name change and the struggle sesh happening around the same time. guess I got the order wrong.
Did the vegan struggle sesh of (2020?) not have anything to do with the name change either? I remember this place was in shambles when that was happening, with all the brigading and what not. The name changed def coincided with with the mass ban wave of the time.
But maybe this is just my own revisionist history or something idk
Based off the comments on this post, I’m just now realizing that my experience has been pretty atypical. I’ve always had a better time working for local businesses, but I guess I’ve just been lucky.
For example, I’m working at a pizzeria right now and the owner will deliver pizzas or work in the kitchen pretty frequently. He pays us above min wage (not very common for a pizza job here) and makes sure tips are split evenly between foh and boh. It’s a much better environment than when I worked corporate fast food stuff. I find that working for a well liked local businesses can make working feel a bit less alienating. But again, I guess I’ve just been lucky with the jobs I’ve managed to land.
I live in a Canadian city with a horrendous landlord and rent affordability problem. Rest assured that many of us want these parasites dealt with.
Canadian online forums seem to always attract the most conservative Canadians.
lots of good advice here. I agree with the sentiment that having a SO won’t make you feel like less of a loser.
But here is my two cents. I think the point of being in a romantic relationship with someone is to hang out with someone that you like and who likes you (and, you know, have sex if you’re into that). Really not much more to it than that.
