I saw this on Reddit first while I was checking my city subreddit, damn the headline there definitely gives a different impression.

(The comments are all mostly jokes, didn't even bother wading through them and came to see If Lemmy had a thread instead).

Visited Seoul with my friend who's family is deeply tied to Samsung.

What an eye opener.

Is that a digital sewing machine? God, I'm so jealous, I want one.

This is why I hate vertical video

I saw someone theorizing that this helps Republicans down ballot. They give the Dems the presidency, but having more Republicans showing up to vote helps house/senate/whatever local elections swing Republican.

Is it really? I remember Mt.'Hope being more flat, but I've only gone to the side with the tennis courts and the soccer field (for anyone that doesn't know, the University of Rochester and a bunch of it's facilities are right next to Mt. Hope, a sort of cemetery/public park hybrid).

Everyone should watch Shogun! If your anathema is crappily produced/costumed "high quality" streaming shows, it is the exact opposite. Best production I've seen in a long time.

STOOOOOPP THIS IS CURSED KNOWLEDGE 😭😭

DO NOT BRING OMEGAVERSE TO LEMMY PLEASE THIS IS MY SAFE SPACE 😭

Yeah, this is a pretty westernized and infantilizing view. Way to take someone's autonomy and compare it to -checks notes- slavery and involuntary human sacrifice.

Please read some eastern philosophy and history before making comments like this. Suicide isn't stigmatized outside of Abrahamic viewpoints.

Self-immolation as a form of protest has millennia of history behind it, especially in Buddhism and Hinduism. Ancient Greeks have records of it. The Indus Valley have records of it. Ancient Chinese have records of it. Tibetan monks set themselves on fire in order to protest for an independent Tibet. Norman Morris set himself on fire at the Pentagon to protest the Vietnam War.

Please don't reduce an active form of protest against someone's oppression as someone simply "killing themselves" and "shouldn't be celebrated". It's a pretty narrow and callous world view that may reflect your experience, but not of wider human history.

Do we have a c/shittyfoodporn? Because this could do numbers there.
