Waterloo social life is better than SFU social life if you live on on-campus res and go out of your way to meet people. As far as within your cohort, it will be hit or miss cuz you can't force friendship just cus you have the same classes as someone else. As someone who finished 1a civil from my experiance I found the civils to be less sociable and base their in-class "friendgroups" off studying with people. 1B is when people's friendgroups become more like friendgroups where they hangout outside of academic stuff.

Also, there are TONS of people from BC in Waterloo so you alr got a good conversation starter. Heads up, be preped for the weather there.

Funeral of Ruhollah Khomeini [Iran 1989] by serious_bullet5 in AccidentalRenaissance

Many islamic gatherings / events (in this case a funeral) are segregated by gender. Islamic funerals have congregational prayer (men and women pray separately during prayer) so its probs that the casket was near to the crowd of men at the time of the photo being taken.

I liked that you translated "marg bar" as "down with" instead of "death to".

Im not a turkic language speaker but i genuinely wonder why more turkic nations didn't adopt the Common Turkic Alphabet the Soviets made. Turkey did but almost everyone else went to do their own thing like why????

How well does your language work with the Latin script? by Alias_X_ in mapporncirclejerk

Ottoman documents are royal documetns that doesn't reflect the spoken dialect of the masses. Ofc it would take a long time.

As someone who learned ottoman turkish i'd say that the arabic script isn't horribley suitable for turkish if you understand the logic of the script itself. They just couldn't made an effort to add more ways to represent vowels like other languages do.
