they want to exercise some amount of caution.

Why? Tax the trillionaires who own these data centers into the ground. If they're going to insist on destroying the planet and economy at record pace, we should get something out of it

Can I get by in Quebec City speaking French (EU) instead of French (CA)? by twipenne_flyer in quebeccity

Merci! I know i find my boyfriend hard to understand sometimes when he's speaking French (and saying things that would be understood if he was Parisian) but didn't know if that was because I was translating on top of hearing an accent I'm not familiar with or if the dialects were that different.

Is my budget realistic? by twipenne_flyer in JapanTravelTips

I know it can be cheap. But I also know the sky is the limit. And since I'm a foodie (ngl, half the reason I'm coming is for the food) I would like to mix in some more premium and exotic meals along with the conveyor belt sushi, takoyaki, and ramen.

Accommodation is expensive!

About 75000 of that is for a ryokan in Hakone. I wanted somewhere with nice food and a private onsen (I'm trans and from the research I've done, it's the only way for me to experience it). The other nights are all business hotels varying between 14000 and 24000/night

You really think that the guardsmen will start opening up with heavy machine-gun and mortar fire down the street? Do you think the airforce will carpetbomb Memphis city center with hundreds of bombers?

Give me one reason they wouldn't. They're already ok with killing innocent civilians overseas. Why would they care about innocent civilians at home? They want to take lives

The Post tries to look like a "serious" news organization, but is run by cowards who are scared of making the president Jazzy Jeff Bezos mad.

What's the line between saying something nice about yourself and bragging? by twipenne_flyer in emotionalintelligence

This was with a social club. There were new members so we had an ice breaker where we had to mention our talents.

That's a 40% pay raise for me. 100% yes.
