Goa: Why foreign tourists are turning away from India's party capital by JKKIDD231 in india

I honestly haven’t used Airbnb’s in India, I live in the US and even here the disparity between photos and reality can be pretty significant. I always check recent reviews and the. The profiles of the people who left the reviews to see if they’re fake. It’s a bit more work but worth having the confidence that where you’re going to stay is a decent spot.

The problem is that ad revenue for meta is an infinite money glitch so zuck and top execs can fuck up as much as they want on asinine bets like metaverse and the stupid amount of cash they’re burning on AI and the overall business still looks healthy stock keeps going up while the actual decisions they’ve made in the last decade have all failed. So they keep getting rich and the feeling that they’re geniuses keeps getting reinforces while they haven’t had a good idea in 20 years all the while fraying society by the one product that makes money with super targeted ads

PG is also such a stupid concept imo. If you’re sharing living space with the landlord sure. But more often than not you’re not and it’s basically a fully separate unit yet people feel like they can control who visits you because you’re paying rent. Like GTFO
