Denying atrocities isn't the big anti-capitalist sell you think it is.
Our incentive for fighting global warming.
Oh so we're applying the founding fathers owning slaves justification to queer persecution? Guess it's okay when everyone else is doing it.
Then again nevermind. I'm used to having our history downplayed by conservatives and reactionaries, including the ones that cosplay in red.
Stalin:"Watch me end this man's credibility"
Reminder to all my queer friends that homosexuality was criminalized under Stalin's regime, and was not repealed until the Soviet Union collapsed.
What Fantasy Football should be
Rich and varied nuggies?
Not everything has to be chicken nuggies and potatoes.
As someone who reads Japanese, reading all kana can be slow because you are reading one syllable at a time. It makes going back to old video games and reading children's media tedious.
Once you know enough kanji though, you can read incredibly fast. Depending on the material, I can speedread faster in Japanese than I can in English.
This is because kanji is meant to be recognized at a glance rather than read in your head. The kana in Japanese sentence is supposed to provide grammatical context. So instead of reading "Inu ga ie ni nemashita" in my head, I'm seeing "Dog, in house, slept" from a glance.
So the downside to this system is that you're spending most of your education learning every character you'll need, but the upside is it can make reading very efficient once you have got it down. I think it's part of the reason Japan still has a pretty robust book culture.
A lot of the post come from lemmygrad and hexbears posters, which are blocked by many instances, thus not visible to everyone. As a kbin user, I see them frequently.
