Naive is the word lol XD Nieves is a Hispanic family name

Reverse image search puts this in Yemen, Shabwah District, 2002. Source is @surfjournalist. Seems like dude just really wanted to surf the Yemeni coast post-9/11.

The surfer is Chas Smith. A surfer / journalist who decided to surf across Yemen during the Chad war to document both sides in search of the origins of Al Quaeda with some other surfer friends.

so we don't have to click the R🤮DD!T link

okay, maybe this is becoming doable

nice!

"lexeme"

I tried that, nothing happened to the picture. why???

yeah I'd prefer -30 over +30 and humid

"necessary" could mean something that must exist, could not be otherwise. like, uhh, the sun? idk man

"evil" is just the dregs of Abrahamic thought that plague our culture, though

it's definitely a dumb question but fun to play along with if you don't take it too seriously

for real, are you serious? you're gonna call names at the moral relativist dude, saying he's the dude who believes that hierarchies are morally good because they exist??? how inconsistent can you get

I'm not sure if you're comparing SSRIs to castration but I'm gonna assume you're not.

I dont think any prescriber would consider any of those medicines necessary. a much better example would be steroids like prednisone. it weakens your immune system, but it's absolutely necessary at times.

SSRIs are rarely necessary, but are a useful tool. too much to say on this.

Benzos are a short term solution to enable more longer term treatments. they're absolute monsters of a drug class, but really effective for sure.

fentanyl would be a better example of a necessary evil. it's synthesis revolutionized surgery.

finally, lithium is a funny example -- we still don't even really know how it works!! but it's a mood stabilizer and can be hugely beneficial for managing bipolar disorder. that said, one can attempt to manage bipolar symptoms without medications, but it's certainly going to be harder and possibly less effective

nah, the justice system is absolutely fucked. in a world where we remake the law around restorative and rehabilitative justice rather than punitive, we're probably not even going to be calling it "prison" anymore

why beans?

Singapore seems a smart choice. Seems like a great city from everyone I've met from there. The general English proficiency is excellent as well.

Whatever you do, avoid Europe. The anti-Asian racism in most of Europe is far more grave than it is in the Americas. and Australia, ok, you'll have more Chinese community, but it's probably the biggest cesspool of anti-Asian racism on the planet

You might also look into what Chinese populations are in South America. you might like it there.

you're lucky you're not in love with an immigrant then

silly responses here... the actual difference is permanence. immigration is relocating your life. expatriating is an extended vacation. it has the white guy connotation because white people usually stay temporarily, they dont immigrate for life.

La ciudad de México is what I've been thinking of. seems like a fabulous place. doubt I could take the heat and I'm more likely to end up in Asia, but Mexico City and Toronto are top contenders

wow. good find, thank you.

so... how is steam good for the vaginal ecosystem? seems like that would support bacterial growth, i guess? Hopefully the kind of organisms you want, and not just... yeast

I dont give a fuck about their burnout lol. if they love it so much why are they whining about doing it?

I'm in health care, you think illness has a pause button? I chose this, they chose theirs.

yeah I'm pretty shocked that a socialist website would value labor over entertainment like that

hey, leave the Improper-Title-Case-Users alone, you're going to alienate the Germans
