Though to an extent, the lack of community, especially amongst children is due to the complete lack of independence and they have to depend on their parents to drive them everywhere.

where do you live that there’s not even a playground or a residential street within walking distance of your home?

I wouldn’t use “never get to experience” but i would say it’s much harder to have that real sense of community that we easily found in the 90s, early 2000s, etc.

People are more connected to others but still more isolated from others. We were less connected to other people back then so people made a real effort to come up with fun activities and bond together. For kids, it’s the lack of just playing outside in the neighbourhood with friends. For adults, it’s the lack of third places and community/religious events.

my guy…

US citizens are obligated to enter the US on their US passport. They are also obligated to file taxes regardless of where they live. As a US citizen, you could be living on Mars for your whole life and still have to file US taxes.

You also have what, 6 years of back taxes to file? You should find a CPA with knowledge us US/German tax laws to prepare that for you. There may be treaties in place.

As someone else said, there’s also the selective service you were supposed to have registered for

ah i see thank you

Yes, so is this the same Hue as in the cloud?

Animal 15 began to lose coordination, and staff observed that she would shake uncontrollably when she saw lab workers.

i hate that i can read this

It does, the article that was linked even says red is a very auscipious colour in Indian culture

So, a coincidence?

Do you have a source on that?

I can’t see (in Chinese culture at least) that the cheapest colour would be used for something like a wedding, it would not reflect well on one’s family to use something cheap. The reds i’m referring to are bright reds, like jewel red, not like a dull/muddy red

armor for sleep, the band?

i actually can’t tell if you’re serious or joking lol

What people are talking about in this thread are people who follow the movement, and not who Qanon is. Of course your friend isn’t Qanon. That would be absurd.

i didn’t mean i thought they were qnon, i meant they are not part of the qanon movement

I don’t know what the connotations of him are in East Asia.

I don’t think there are any, I agree the audience for my questions are people who speak English (at a level they would understand what he’s saying fluently), i don’t think he’s super well known or very popular here

he was in the local news a few years ago because he talked about the protest in hongkong but he was referred to as “ufc’s joe rogan”, not sure if he had the podcast back then

i meant that the person i know is not qanon, i was responding to “I don’t know but if someone told me they listened to Joe Rogan, I would assume…Worst case is Qanon nut job.”

thank you!

any chance you could give a time period for this? was this a few months ago? this might have been what they were listening to

i don’t think he (the person I know) is a qanon, i don’t really know what that is but i don’t think we have those kind of people here in asia (our politics are focused on different things)

well, i don’t know fully. neither of us speaks english as a first language
