What's up with white people saying "I didn't have [thing] on my bingo card"? It's like an animal crossing catchphrase with them, I swear. I heard two distinct people say it today alone. So freaky.
Funny you say that because Unitedstatesian is actually the proper term in Spanish (estadounidense). Besides that, I've heard people say Americano/a or yanqui. I've never heard usaeño/a
Yeah! I don't know why the vaguest possible word caught on. Now it's just a formal way of saying "things." If you care so little about what you're creating that you can't even describe it, just call it what it is: slop. Ugh it's so frustrating how the most disinterested business jargon imaginable is the new normal. It's one thing for shareholders to describe their cash cows as "stuff makers" because of course they would. But why on earth are people choosing to call themselves that instead of, idk, photographers, video editors, writers, artists?
Content content content content content I swear to god if I hear that word one more time I'm going ballistic. 90% of the time, people use the word to mean "videos" or "posts." Is "youtuber" a slur now? God I'd rather hear slurs than "content creator" another fucking time. Why tf does everyone talk like they're suits in a stock meeting?
Yeah you can spoof your caller ID to be any phone number at all. Scammers usually give themselves your local area code, but I've never seen one bold enough to pose as a bank. That's definitely illegal if they're ever caught (they won't be).
It's funny hearing westerners project their own intentions onto China. You know for certain that if they had their way, they absolutely would force the Chinese to only speak English.
How come yankee google maps gives Taiwan the bold black text that's reserved for countries? The official US government stance afaik is that it's part of China.
Everyone will have to pass around one of those little rubber dog toothbrushes. Failure to maintain dental hygiene will result in a ban on socialist fraternal kisses
Funny enough, nude swimming used to be a thing in America which is low-key the same thing. It was something boys had to do for school and would also do in rivers and stuff. Girls had to wear swimsuits though
I wonder how much of that is satire and how much is honesty because I remember reading somewhere about how a lot of people resented the shift away from social bathing.
In a world where antisemitism holds so much weight, islamophobia apparently doesn't matter at all.
(yeah I know that real bigotry against jews barely matters too and that the word has been coopted by zionists)
