paper money is aight, but coins are super annoying

How big “anti-imperialism” is as an ideology in countries ravaged by America and the former Soviet-bloc.

I’m of Iraqi descent and whenever I visit home I see people supporting extreme ideologies like Islamism or Stalinism or some unholy mix between the two, which is always nuts for me. They are super-political, but they never vote, because that means the “imperialist system wins”. They use anti-imperialism as a justification for anti-LGBT, anti-feminist, anti-democratic, anti-religious and anti-secularist hate.

Otherwise the people are very nice, but if any major political/cultural topic is being mentioned, they go full doomer mode.

I get why anti-imperialism is so big in Iraq, but actually experiencing it, is really crazy.

Only relevant if you talk to a Bedouin living in the desert. Otherwise bidet culture is pretty big in MENA.

I think the first Spiderverse movie, if I remember correctly. It was great, it set a new standard for animation in general.
