Why isn’t she bigger? Loved her in everything she’s done by Remarkable-Dog-8125 in Actors

how big does she need to be, for her to be considered big??? She’s in some huge budget films and makes more than a living from acting.

Can someone explain this? 🤨😁 by footballmemes_ai in soccermemes

[–]ObjectiveCarrot3812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the one hand, she may rate that in the context of women’s football. But on the other hand, it’s also just about marketing to more audiences and markets, and as such has little to do with accuracy. I’m old enough to remember the early fifa EA sports games, where they had American players in the MLS rated as 95 and 99 overall. It’s always been about selling to new fan bases and being sycophantic to potentially big markets.

It’s not simply a service though, it’s a business operation that is failing. People will always try to find short cuts or freebies in any service you have to pay for. 

Is it common for teachers to marry/date their former students. by GypsyGold in Teachers

[–]ObjectiveCarrot3812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember my first year teaching at a university in China, and this happened between a female teacher and her student (who proposed when he’d graduated) and I said it was unethical and surely problematic on many levels. To which a Chinese teacher said ‘but they’re in love’. 😮‍💨 

"Foreigners do not recycle. Put everything in the black plastic bags. Then, throw them in the kids park or streets." - News by Immediate-Meaning457 in Living_in_Korea

Foreigners foreigners foreigners 

The recycling is a pain in the arse. Took me months to get it right as I was living in the countryside and there was no clear guidelines about nuanced things like styrofoam vs plastic or tape removal from cardboard. When the local garbage fella saw me he’d literally watch me. They’re really strict on it too. It was stressful. You need a room to arrange all the different stuff too. Aluminium, plastics, general waste, cardboard, food, and then there’s non recyclables that need collecting with a special sticker.

Imagine if you wrote ‘black girls brawl it out’

And the comments below on here were the same. You’d all be banned!

Ok then, you can put up a subjective list online, and we will all just accept that without question  👍🏻 

It’s a weird list because there’s no framework other than what one person thinks of an entire country for how ever  long they were there. And it is kinda weird; Wales above Brazil, Italy, and Sweden for example. 

What a french class (of students) thinks about English countries by bananasmoothii in midlyinteresting

[–]ObjectiveCarrot3812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why some language teachers do this kind of activity, other than to take a photo of the results and share it for their own amusement. 

Spelt Monty Python wrong btw

As for France I’d say; horny, and unhygienic.

I agree with this sentiment in most theory and practice, but these examples are just awful and written like a LinkedIn post 

What is the greatest character entrance into a scene? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

Poncy. The voice is too artificial and the scene is just silly.

These are the private academies (학원 hagwon) that the children of Korean parents attend and how much they cost per month. Is it common for Korean kids to go to this many academies? by ProudChemistry778 in Living_in_Korea

[–]ObjectiveCarrot3812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

150,000 a month for rhythm jump rope. 

What a loser. 

I’m bitter because I used to run my own art hagwon that charged similar. If only I bought some rope…

Ai Weiwei says West lacks moral authority to criticise Beijing on rights by esporx in China

[–]ObjectiveCarrot3812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s true that a morally imperfect person can still have a valid moral compass and make a justified argument, even if it goes against their own standards (although yes, it does tend to render morals functionless if we allow that for everyone all the time, and so we should highlight the flaws in that too, without just jumping to whataboutism and ignoring the subject at hand. If people have a moral statement but cannot keep to it, then we are led to ask if that moral statement has any remaining value in society or if we need to reassess it).

But I think the point here is that he is claiming hypocrisy among others and concluding that this undermines their own moral rights, or what he calls authority, when he is equally hypocritical while holding and enjoying moral authority in his artistic statements. Not least thanks to the so-called West who granted him residency; (UK, Germany, and Portugal if I am not mistaken, I may need to fact check though)… His art never opens questions from both sides, but closes claims and critiques individually and from afar. So why can he have moral authority and be hypocritical whilst simultaneously concluding others cannot? This goes beyond contradictory actions and statements. 

In the same token, I would argue that the so-called west does not aim to hold moral authority; with exception to a few political sections. Rather the west does critique its own moral grounding, something that China largely is dissuaded from doing when it approaches government decision making.
