On a personal note.
Dragon Ball was one of the 3 shows I was absolutely obsessed with as a child. It inspired me a lot, and watching goku journey helped through some difficult times. And I'm sure there were millions of kids like me.
Thank you, #AkiraToriyama
Rest in peace legend
The political left is in a crossroad. The same crossroad the right has been in for the last few years. There's a certain very loud racist, antisemitic, extremist group, prone to conspiracy theories (basically left wing qanon) within/align itself with the left
Now the left has 2 options:
1. To be led by them, be radicalised, and lose the support of many
2. To disconnect from them and shrink them back to their real size.
The choice is in the hand of every single one on the left. Choose Wisely
And life ends up disagreeing with them. A lot. So their reaction is to get angry with reality, and turn to conspiracy theories. Cause naturally they can't be wrong.
It's dangerous, and I had ENOUGH
People really, really, REALLY need to stop learning history and geopolitics solely from social media. Especially gen z, especially tiktok. Cause mates I'm at my fucking limit.
Don't get me wrong, you CAN learn things through social media. There're genuinely knowledgeable people around. But you need to know HOW to do it.
One of the reasons I'm bringing it up is an incredible phenomenon. People learn things from social media, but do it wrong.

I'll probably be back here at some point when I feel like it or to share some observations. If you want to say hi, dm is open, tag me, or just come to the other account (@maybeashasu)

For those of you who might or might not be wondering where I disappeared for around 3 months, I was in the other account (the geopolitics and history one), and I have observations (and since I lost all faith in humanity you can guess they're not really good).
Genuine question for people who use social media (mainly tiktok/ Twitter but not only) as a tool to get information: how do you know that what you read is true? How do you verify that information?
A 10 months old is still held hostage by hamas.
He was taken with his mother and 4 years old brother. Why aren't they being released??
