@Ryntak94 @EmilyDreyfuss You’re this close to figuring out what their shared interest was 😈

@dadsweb67 Paid off a car loan when I made less. It’s not hard to live within your means if it’s double the national median income.

@Absurdum14 @owenbroadcast You know facts don’t matter to these people

[Tom Kelly ケリー・トム 🏳️‍🌈 @tomkXY]

@Absurdum14 @howardhardiman A lot of those rural communities in Otago and Southland are descendants of the early settlers from the Orkney islands so there will be cultural similarities for sure

@Absurdum14 @simongerman600 Did they use the Aussie flag twice? LOL

@hi_im_envy Moved my kids here from Japan. No regrets. They’re loving it.

@JamesHalcrow I frequently refer to Auckland as an oversized town for this reason

@number_pizza111 That’s because South Italy was already poor 150 years ago, why do you think all the Italian immigrants are from there?

@Favwontmiss I’m great at the conference queue coffee chat because you have the same conversation every time. Same reasons I can introduce myself in a foreign language, you have the same conversation with new people. Rinse, repeat. It’s a practiced skill.

@NameOnCooldown @LisaMarieBowman Oceania is definitely have in fun with it

@davidrmunson @JPNStation If you can’t beat them join them?

@Magnum702 @gaiaslastlaugh The Tachikawa one is good too!

[Tom Kelly ケリー・トム 🏳️‍🌈 @tomkXY]

@gaiaslastlaugh Alright but they could be trying a lot harder to reduce it, here’s what a successful anti-smoking campaign looks like

@Absurdum14 @gaiaslastlaugh @RaraSensei They’re super chill and lowkey the muslim rule over there is why they left

[Tom Kelly ケリー・トム 🏳️‍🌈 @tomkXY]

@Absurdum14 @writerofscratch It’s also a sad reality of the hierarchical culture in japan that they seem genuinely grateful when someone treats them like a human instead of a doormat. Japanese people say the worst things about the working class. I had to call it out so my kids would learn to treat them well.

@rabbitgodofbl @boyslovehub This isn’t progress, it’s a distraction. They’ve spent years watering this down and they’re only doing it due to international pressures from the G7. If they cared, they’d legalise same-sex marriage and ban housing discrimination. The LDP has a majority. They can, they won’t.

@Absurdum14 @Jakeruruku I think it was Apples they were messing with too but it was easier to smuggle them to the US than get approval to taste them here 😛

[Tom Kelly ケリー・トム 🏳️‍🌈 @tomkXY]

@Absurdum14 @Jakeruruku Yeah they partnered with Plant & Food to develop the new strains. They like California because they can test their GM strains there too.
