Look at what Nintendo’s been doing for the last like 20 years. PS2 level graphics but great game design

CN is far from what I’d call “militant”. Probably as well-documented and mild-mannered as radical politics gets. Then again, Medium deleted my length call out post of a former friend when he was accused of rape so maybe it’s not so surprising
I agree. And it was the only one of the season that seemed to revisit the original themes of the series
The Bear season 3. Season 1 was all about the working class and the conflicts of gentrification as demanded by capitalism and authenticity. Season 2 was similar themes plus struggling with maintianing a healthy life outside of work when you have crazy ambitions. And then season 3 was just… about how if you dont bend your will to capitalism and be a good cog in the machine of a fine dining establishment then you’re a shit human being? Idk man it really lost the plot
I could never live in the Upper Midwest states like Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Too cold for too much of the year. Chicago gets crazy cold sometimes but winters are getting milder thanks to climate change. The more Western Midwest states are too boring for me. There are small cultural enclaves like Lincoln Nebraska or Lawrence Kansas, but they are more remote out there than in the eastern part of the region. Instead of a couple hours drive to see a cool concert you’d need to get a hotel.
I like Cincinnati although I’ve never lived there. Good mix of culture and affordability plus a drive towards more bike and transit infrastructure. If I weren’t concerned with having a career I’d live in a blue city in the South, like Asheville North Carolina or Lewisburg West Virginia. Great weather, good culture, and nice people. Just a lot of poverty and few jobs.
Columbus is not Great Plains. Too much corn and not enough grassland
The US Census Bureau defines the Midwest like this, but I think the Dakotas and most of Kansas and Nebraska are Great Plains, not tha Midwest.

When I was a kid growing up in the Midwest, this is what I thought tacos were. And then a friend took me to a legit Mexican joint as a teenager and my mind was blown
Not enough ads in between sentences
Kinda disappointed the friend didn’t check with the driver at all and instead just wanted to leave the scene
And yet its collectivism makes it a much more cooperative society than America. People take care of the commons instead of taking as much as they can before anyone else

I said the same. Giving you a virtual high five

I’m also kind of upset as a half-Chinese person that I didn’t know about furikake until I was like 30. Like I’m low-key jealous the Japanese thought of it and my family didn’t get the memo while I was growing up. Ah well, at least I know now!
Funny thing is, Jesses Waters originally got a hosting job after Bill O’Reilly got fired.
Walking in an American city is a great way to realize how totally fucked our transportation infrastructure is. So many people seem to have never even bothered to try walking anywhere
I agree. Some of the brightest most creative people in history took walks as part of their daily routines. I think it’s a great way to reset the brain and get in touch with your surroundings and your body
As long as the weather’s not too bad, walking is great. If I’m in a hurry, I bike, but that’s always a little stressful cuz you gotta deal with either cars/drivers or poorly-maintained sidewalks. Haven’t owned a car in 12 years
When I was a teenager, I literally had girls literally tell me they liked me but that I was too short, or they’d date me if I was taller. It bothered me a lot but I didn’t get weird and bitter about it or anything. The average height of a woman in the US is 5’4" so I was still able to find plenty of partners shorter than me or the same height or even a little taller, and the older I get the less it matters. I just always think of Prince who was 5’2" and just about the sexiest human alive. The hardest part is not internalizing American society’s standards.
