To an extent, think work friends versus the kinda friends you meet at a concert, or at the gym. It's not necessarily a "different" personality as much as shifting behavior and topics a bit. In short, I'm gonna talk a little different around my young engineering friends vs the guys I've known since high school.
It makes me deeply uncomfortable to entertain the thought that "the paper towel industry" is an entity out to manipulate me.
I've been reading Shoukoku no Altair. I started it years and years ago and just never finished it. I forgot how much I loved the art style. Also, still plugging along a very slow going One Piece re-read, meant to have caught up by now but I only just finished Enies Lobby.
As someone who usually lurks on most forums, it's a combination of not really being completely comfortable with the culture and group dynamics of smaller communities, and also just never feel compelled to add something.

It seems more like they "claim" to not recognize China. When in reality they very much recognize the government in Beijing. Kinda hard to claim you "don't recognize" a government you have bilateral agreements with.
