🇰🇵 Any other games popular in the DPRK? Well, here are some of them.
North Korean-made mobile games developed for domestic use and played on the intranet. Anyway, can you recognize or spot any of these games?
When I see spoiled white elites acting like retards I tend to think "atleast they built the modern world" but something about spoiled Arab, Pakistani and Indian elites just disgusts me to the core
Worthless cunts that haven't produced anything substantial in the last 300 years
Anthony Bourdain had what looked like the best job on the planet. He got paid to roam the world eating whatever he wanted, and strangers everywhere told him things they would never tell a reporter. Eight years ago today, he died by suicide at 61.
For almost thirty years before any of that, he was a cook nobody had heard of, working long hot shifts for little money. He was in his forties when he wrote a book spilling the secrets of what really goes on behind restaurant doors, and almost overnight, the unknown cook became a star.
What made him different was that he never faked it. Other travel hosts smiled at pretty views and pretended to love everything. Bourdain sat on plastic stools in back alleys and ate exactly what the people there ate. Then he got them talking about their real lives, and they trusted him enough to tell him the truth.
He went to places most shows stayed away from, like the Congo, Gaza, Iran, and New Orleans right after Hurricane Katrina. He once ate noodles at a tiny plastic-table joint in Vietnam with a sitting US president. His show Parts Unknown ran for twelve seasons and won a dozen Emmy Awards along with a Peabody, the top prize in broadcasting. It made a food show feel like real reporting on the world.
His death was so shocking because of the gap between the life everyone saw and the life he was actually living. Here was the guy who looked freer than anyone on TV, doing the job millions of people dreamed about, and the pain underneath was almost invisible to the people around him. He had actually talked about it in the open: on camera he once described how something as small as a bad meal could drop him into days of feeling low, and he had written about his heroin addiction from when he was young. None of it fit the cheerful, curious man people thought they knew.
He died just days after the designer Kate Spade died the same way, and that week, calls to the national crisis line jumped 65 percent. The conversation that followed kept circling one hard fact: the life you envy from the outside can be sitting right on top of pain you cannot see. What he left behind is bigger than any of the awards. He taught a whole generation that the fastest way to understand a stranger is to sit down and eat what they eat.
You weren’t in combat, Scott. You were shot at. Other people were in combat around you. To be in combat, you have to be an active participant. You didn’t. You were a noncombatant journalist. You observed, and hoped to not become collateral damage. Get off your high goddamned horse. You’re no different than the guy that snapped these pictures of me for AFP. I love Ted like a brother. He was present for some heavy fighting, but he wouldn’t call what he did “being in combat.”
Scott Pelley responds to Trump saying he doesn’t care about the country: “I’ve never worn the uniform, but I’ve been in combat for this country. In Afghanistan, and Iraq, Kuwait. Been shot at. Spent nights in foxholes filling up with water in the desert. I’m not aware that the president has ever done any of those things for his country. You become a journalist because you love the First Amendment, you love the country. While all the other descriptions the president used about me might be applicable, not that one”
A lot of you talk down on Facebook, but without Facebook, where would I find gems like this in the wild?
Ever seen someone JB weld their RMR to their ACOG?
There was this massive flop of a club in Vegas a while back called Kaos. They spent more money than God on the build out, (like $700 million), and then on stealing away everywhere else’s big name DJs and acts. They had Cardi B, Skrillex, Marshmello, J Balvin, and a bunch of other big names. For the grand opening, they had scheduled Skrillex to dj before Travis Scott. Scott was scheduled to go on at 1:30am. Around 4am when he still hadn’t showed up, and Skrillex had finally gotten tired of playing, (think he spun for like 6 hours), the club emptied out. Scott finally showed up around 5am, 4 hours late, and almost fought club management who tried to tell him get lost. He demanded and fought to go on, and played for about 200 people. One of the craziest disasters I’ve ever seen. Talk about a cursed grand opening. Place closed like 6 months later. This guys a great artist, but sucks as a person
Leonard Nimoy performing “The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" from his 1968 album 'Two Sides of Leonard Nimoy' on the short lived variety show Malibu U, 1967.
Emil "Elk" Eber is better known as a Third Reich propagandist than a painter of the American West.
He never traveled to America, but he was interested in the Indian Wars. Somehow a rumor started in his Austrian hometown that his mother was Native American, and he adopted the nickname "Elk" to encourage speculation that he was a half-breed.
He did have firsthand experience with combat, though. He fought in WW1, and he was a member of the Freikorps and later the NSDAP, witnessing the early street fighting against the Communists.
The painting at bottom right ("This was the SA") was a favorite of Hitler's.
