I think everyone saw issues will happen 10 years ago, when Germany took excessive amount of refugees. Though on the one hand, way before the migration crisis, Europe had been criticised for not taking in both migrants and refugees, many of whom died being denied entry. You can never please both sides when it comes to migration.

Really? It is a shame that none of the suggestions are ever implemented.

Here in Ireland, the government postal service diversified and now also provides financial services to remain relevant and liquid. You can set up a current account with them, or withdraw cash through a post office if you already have an existing current account with another bank. I think An Post also allows you to buy bonds. They have also even entered mobile carrier service.

Other postal service in many parts of the world should follow the same model to remain relevant. These new additional and modernised services would be beneficial to serve remote communities not easily covered by mobile carriers, banking institutions and/or still rely on traditional mail service.

To be fair to Honda, they are doing what is expected of any companies in a capitalist system, actually innovate and diversify in order to remain competitive. Most other companies would rather stick to their traditional products and services, even if those products and services are written on the wall that they are becoming obsolete.

Serious question, why are Venetians against Bezos' wedding? Did he do anything that offended the city before?

You could literally google and see sources what life was like in Tibet before. China is bad, and Tibet before was bad. Many things can be true at the same time. It is just the fact of life. No one is backing up China, it is only you problem if that is you are being emotional on a factual statement.

Not making CCP any better here, but truth is truth and doesn't care about your feelings. Was it China's business to invade Tibet? No, but pre-CCP Tibet was a corrupt theocratic state similar to Iran and Renaissance-era Vatican.

The rosy romanticisation of what should be a humanitarian entity is probably worst with Buddhism. The Buddhist majority-Burmese oppressing the Rohyngian Muslims, some Buddhist monks advocating for dominance in South East Asia, and even pre-CCP Tibet where the dalai lama and his ilks were decadent and corrupt, seem unfathomable for many who view Buddhism as the most secular and least dogmatic religion. There was an article I have read lamenting this corruption in Buddhist communities, and I was like "they are still humans, what do you expect?"

Creatine helps to retain water in muscles though?

Definitely. Looking like Henry Cavill makes it easier, but confidence is really the main attraction. I know less attractive men sleep with Victoria's Secret-type women. And there is actually a study on men who are perpetually single, and the common denominator is being under-confident. But at the same time, you don't want to be overconfident and thus arrogant.

The accusations are leveled at all social media.

I always see these news of proposals. Wake me up when these proposals are have actually been legislated.

I am actually getting tired of these rhetorical questions written as headlines. Just say what you want to say!

If the wording is so bad, presume it is AI written.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I am a minority, but I have had reservations to DEI initiatives. I am partial to France's approach of not recording race, gender and religion on workplaces whatsoever. Although with how Trump handles it, being anti-DEI in the US is really a shotgun approach to basically just hiring 99% white men.

In social media, Russian bots pretty much defend their online disinformation as revenge for stoking color revolutions. But I say to them, even if that is the case, what is wrong with promoting democracy? The Russian disinformation campaign is the reverse by stoking non-democratic ideals.

Alright, have it your way. I like your cooking.
