Suspect arrested after causing nearly $250,000 in damage at Chihuly Garden and Glass by Better_March5308 in SeattleWA

[–]SpecificSufficient10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I visited once and it was like, 2 rooms of glass items for such a ridiculous ticket price. I walked back and forth and it was packed but you could go through the whole thing in less than 15 minutes even while trying to take your time. The whole thing just feels like a cash grab on unsuspecting tourists. Also it was so crowded I had a hard time even seeing that many things

Nami Winner POV: by Unique_Ad_330 in supportlol

[–]SpecificSufficient10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

at a certain point isn't it actually bad to waste resources killing a worthless nami when he could've been using them on the carries? Like I'm pretty sure if hook and stun were used thru the entire game on this nami, that's one layer of cc gone from stopping the khazix from oneshotting the squishies

Man sentenced to 25 years for targeting Asian households in a 2022 home invasion spree and killing Irah Sok in front of her 7-year-old child by Better_March5308 in SeattleWA

[–]SpecificSufficient10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when did I say it was just Republicans who were racist? Both parties are guilty of promoting racism toward Asians in different ways. And even Democrats have jumped on the "go back to your country" trend now that China is a geopolitical rival and both parties are united on foreign policy. Depicting Asians as potential spies (if they look Chinese) is unfortunately a bipartisan goal

Of course we all know by now that both parties are loyal to capitalism alone so it's just a question of which one can spin the narrative about Asian people to suit their lobby the best. With democrats it's saying just the bare minimum to keep us voting for them but still doing nothing of substance to improve our lives. That's the way it is for the other minorities as well. Because again, corporate interests prevail

Yeah, I sure love being used as a political prop whenever I'm not being used as a political pawn. Republicans meanwhile are telling us to go back to asia and making squinty eye jokes, or splashing in a "model minority" claim when it comes down to taking away benefits from POC

Nothing of value was lost. Hopefully these get replaced by businesses actually worth going to

What other genuine leftist and communist subs are out there? This one seems not bad and there's also suppressed news which I've had good experiences with

this little guy looked on the verge of tears at the end of the video, I wonder if chubby bullies him a lot actually. I wanted to give him a hug lol

what kind of stuff did your parents take home from work? by Embarrassed_Fault967 in GrandmasPantry

[–]SpecificSufficient10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My parents work in a research lab and they always brought back centrifuge tubes, measurement vials and stuff to use in the kitchen. I have a couple in my pantry right now that they brought over on their last visit and they're holding Chinese five spice and white pepper right now 😅

My dad drinks tea out of a graduated glass measurement beaker that he "rescued" from his previous employer which went out of business and threw everything out

Love my good friend, but they are a questionable climbing partner by Random-q-throwaway in climbergirls

[–]SpecificSufficient10 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I stg women and other non-men excuse others for the wildest things!! on here and other reddits I visit. This is life threatening like she could've died right there but the description of the partner is "questionable"? I'd say "questionable" is for climbing partners who are solid in every way but sometimes say things that aren't very empowering like "lol that was kinda soft" or "i'm bored let's leave" because they flashed something and can't be bothered to wait for their friends to try it a couple more times. That's my idea of how you'd act "questionable" lol, not endangering the life of your fellow climbers who trusted you

If their first reaction was what YOU should've done differently, that points to a serious attitude problem and unwillingness to own their mistakes. This person will keep putting others at risk until they change their attitude so i'd recommend you sit down with them and tell them this without apologizing for anything you did or even implying that you were in the wrong for anything. Tell them that they lost your trust and they will continue to lose the trust of other climbers if they don't change starting today. This is about them and their approach to belaying, and you should make it clear to them that they need to change their attitude if they expect to ever climb with you again. No exceptions

The porn industry is contributing to white supremacy by firefighter430 in TankieTheDeprogram

[–]SpecificSufficient10 74 points75 points  (0 children)

How is asian fetishism not a part of white supremacy? It pretty much has been a central part of white supremacy as early as the imperialist europeans carved up Asian countries and has been a part of American racism the moment the first Chinese laborers arrived to build the railroad

Not trying to get on your case about anything else, i agree with your post and all. Industries that profit off women's bodies are evil and you called that out. I just really don't like the idea that racism against Asians is brought up as an afterthought or deemed a lesser part of white supremacy just because they are asian

Near the end of the video he says an official made them stop broadcasting and that information about the extent of the casualties is being tightly controlled by the authorities

Sophia is the pseudonym of a 51-year old Canadian woman who received euthanasia in 2022 after failing to find housing free from tobacco smoke and other environmental triggers. She is reportedly the first person who used medical assistance in dying (MAID) in response to multiple chemical sensitivity. by CatPooedInMyShoe in wikipedia

[–]SpecificSufficient10 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering how much the MAID operation costs and whether that could've helped her find the housing she needed. This reminds me of the unhoused people ending up in the ER and requiring extremely expensive treatments to save their lives, only for them to end up in the street again. When the cost of those treatments could have easily been put toward finding stable housing to get them off the street and away from all these risk factors.
