  • If the US got to the point of rewriting or coming up with a new constitution, which minds would be the equivalent of the minds today? To rewrite the whole thing?

  • Most important thing is:

    Votes should be out of ALL SEATS, not only those present.

    Example: 101 seats in a legislature

    51 Team A

    50 Team B

    Team B shouldn't be able to just assassinate 2 of Team A to win majority. Fuck that shit. An empty seat should be treated as if it were a "no" vote.

    The current system is basically favoring the side that supports political violence. And this shit is the same around the world. Just block your opposition from entering the building and voila! You get a majority.

    Seriously am I the only one in the world that see this bullshit! Why are politicians so dumb? I should run this planet goddammit.

  • Would you actually have to go back to high school?

  • I actually have a GED

    I got dragged into a fight where I defended myself and then I got arrested... (charges later dropped) so I just hated that school...

    So easy, didn't even need to study (no classes required, you just take a test, that simple), passed first time... it's 4 separate test categories, I went two separate times, each time taking two subjects (I mean I coumd probably just marathon through it all, but didn't wanna be overwhelmed). They don't really have actual test centers run by the GED thing, they just tell you to go to a place they approved (e.g: a local city-university campus) and they have a computerlab and they sign you in to the online test... and you have to put all your belongings in a locker outside (especially phones)

    So I passed them with "college ready" scores or whatever it even means...

    (My school also did like night school for adults if they have like partial credits and they can finish school that way)

    Since this was like Covid era, SAT requirements were dropped so Penn State accepted me with just the GED...

    But then Depression fucked up my life...

    AAAHHH fucking brain chemicals man, life sucks...

    Also I'm Asian... really broke the sterotype of academic success... I don't feel so Asian anymore :/

    Oh btw about the dreams... I actually dream about Elementary School more...

    Cuz my early memories of being this 8 year old Chinese kid new in America... I think I have a "younger me" trapped inside my mind that is still hiding in there, still feel scared of the world...

  • How would you go about reaching North Sentinel Island undetected and integrating into their community?

  • Except when it comes to healthcare and UBI, apparantly Americans don't want to take any of that... 👀

  • Revealed: Russia’s top secret spy school teaching hacking and election meddling

  • But why do they even need to hack elections? The folks over at .ml told me that elections are pointless and the rich already controls everything!

  • They're in China... (my family's country of origin)

    I don't have a passport yet... submitted application still waiting for the US State Department... 👀

    Also requires visa from PRC Embassy...

    I thought it was too much hassle to have to deal with VPN and firewall issues and I didn't bother...

    If I knew I'd feel this lonely, I might've tagged along

    That reminds me, haven't been on a plane since we arrived in the US in 2010... 16 years away from my birth country... 👀

    Also my brother seems to think I'm trying to harm him or something... mom asked me to help with finding the cheapest plane tickets, then there was some webpage loading issues, then he just said he would just do it on his computer instead...

    And then I was curious and asked which seats he picked... I mean I'm always curious about stuff

    He didn't respond...

    Like c'mon... it's not like I'm gonna put poison on a plane seat lmfao... wtf bro?

    So yeah...

  • In cultures where marriage is a social obligation and arranged marriages are common, marriage feels like those group projects in school.

    Jump

  • According Chinese society: 38 would be too old, nobody would want you.

    Dad was 31 and Mom was 24 when they married, you're late to the train according to them.

    My older brother is 28, he's on a trip to China right now to supposedly meet "marriage candidates"

    Mom is pressuring him cuz "once you get older nobody would want you anymore" 🤔

    I'm 23 and mom is already jokingly like: "Hey I know this person's daughter, do you wanna meet and 'maybe become friends'?" (heavily implying marriage) I just fucking laughed... I'm so depressed I can't even take care of a cat, how am I supposed to start a family lmao... I need to fix depression first...

    Once when I was in my teens I heard mom want me to "hang out" with her best friend's daughter and "become friends"... lol... maybe she should've thought about that before moving away from Brooklyn where they lived... we used to live like right across the street from them... but rent is a big hassle and parents wanted to have home ownership thats why we moved to Philly...

    and I have been to their house... I'm shy af and didn't wanna talk...

    Yea I'm gonna be forever alone... I don't even have the courage to talk to people lol...

    Btw: Arranged Marriages =/= Forced Marriages

    You have the choice to "veto" in an Arranged Marriage, but not in a Forced Marriage.

    The "Arranged" is referring to who's in the captain steering the ship, so parents and relatives are heavily involved in the matchmaking process and looking for "candidates".

  • What is it like traveling with two passports at the same time?

    Jump

  • Off on a tangent, but:

    I hear some Naturalized US citizens still attempting to use their Chinese passport to enter China...

    China does not allow dual citzizenship... 👀

    If they get on the CCP's radar, they can't get help from the US Embassy anymore since they entered with a Chinese passport...

  • How prevalent are cash transactions in the USA?

    Jump

  • And the worst part is the knowing winks like “I know you prefer cash” with the implication I’m a tax cheat. Fuck you, asshole! You’re just making more work for me! Now I have to log this myself and report it separately from my W-2s.

    Nice comment, now the government is off your back 😉

  • They never trusted their company to make it through the month?

    Companies in China flop all the time, probably act this way because of their learned experience.

    Or they never trusted themselves to have anything left after the weekend?

    My parents were the type to always save.

    They claim that Americans (they mean Americans that are not of Asian descent) cant afford anything because they always spend they entire paycheck at some bar and just constantly depend on their next paycheck in order to have money.

    They own a house in Philly... and then they look at the renters and was like: "Hey son, you see all these people renting? It's because they're lazy and don't work and/or they waste money gambling or doing drugs, don't be like those people"

    And then once my depression became a thing... they say that "America turned me lazy"... bruh its called depression jesus christ mom, do you want me to kms ffs

  • Do you think every generation thinks their time growing up was the best?

    Jump

  • My parents (and their parents) certaintly think my generation is better than theirs.

    The summary is this: They lived in post WW2 Rural China, I get to live in the 21st century and also get to grow up mostly in the US... mom said her family money situation growing up was kinda shitty, in contrast she said in my childhood, I got to not worry about starving... they had rationing system...

    Parents were born in mid- 1960s to mid- 1970s

    YSK that your phone lockscreen password will not protect your eSIMs (or physical SIMs either, for that matter), factory reset often times does not remove eSIMs

    "AI"/LLMs are a great tool to find recommendations on movies/tv/anime/songs etc... since there's not much harm if you don't like it ("truthfulness" is not as important in this context)
