Young women in South Korea spend $700 a month on skincare.
One-third of Korean women between the ages of 19 and 39 have had some kind of cosmetic surgery, according to a 2020 Gallup Korea poll — 66 percent said they would go under the knife to improve their chances on the marriage market. Even more distressing, a 2007 survey by the brand Dove found that one in four Korean mothers advised daughters between the ages of 12 and 16 to go under the knife.
Over 56 percent of Korean men said they would break up with their girlfriend if she said she was a feminist.
Bad Korea seems like such a horribly repressive place for women. The aesthetic labour required to be tolerated by their incel freaks is so much more than in the west.
Four stories from the COVID supply crunch stood out to me:
-
Factories building and garages maintaining 18-wheelers had to shut down because they couldn’t source some small metal part that came from China domestically. It was just like a particular kind of ball-bearing.
-
A factory that made doors had to shut down because it couldn’t source its inputs domestically
-
Municipal utility companies warned that they had no supplies to respond to infrastructure damage because they couldn’t source them domestically
-
Nurses were wearing trash bags while people paid $100 for homemade ineffective hand sanitiser on ebay because the basic supplies required to respond to the pandemic at any level couldn’t be sourced domestically.
Big fuck around energy.
I feel like they’ve got a strong constitutional case. One BBC article I read said that 60% of their company ownership is by global hedge funds so they just plainly aren’t a Chinese company. Singling them out for having dissident information through an act of congress is precisely what the 1st Amendment is supposed to protect against. With the sale supposed to happen in November at the earliest, the red scare will either fade by then or become a much larger issue they can capitalise on.
Curious. I backed my car up earlier and it was super easy. Didn’t drown, didn’t need to break a window to save myself. Maybe I’m just infinitely smarter.
Liberals need him to exist because without him they’d look like feral demons who are incapable of doing anything apart from murdering anyone
we need to support ukraine because if russia isn’t stopped from its war of territorial expansion then it will only be emboldened to invade other countries
Is this the bookshelf of a thrice-divorced 45 year-old or a 15 year-old who wears a suit to school every day because he wants to be a businessman when he grows up?
That nearly happened to me. A guy was robbing cars and the sheriff shot him as he was driving away. I was going to do my laundry and he swerved past me, across a road, and slammed into a tree. At the time I knew nothing of the shooting so I thought it was just a normal car accident. I run up to the guy and he’s unconscious, so I start pulling him out to check for vitals and start CPR. As soon as I had him on the ground I felt something against my head. I turn around and it’s a squad of pigs with AR-15s drawn, including one pointed directly at me.
Instantly lost any compassion for them. They let the guy die on the ground for petty theft.
That’s how I was while watching the capitol riot live. When the hogs were teargassed I laughed, when they went into a construction tent while coughing I laughed, when they beat up cops I laughed, when they were a hallway away from lynching people who don’t think I deserve my basic needs being met I laughed, when they were hunted by the FBI I laughed. It had the same energy as Succession where I don’t care who wins as long as they all lose. Any riot which attacks things I hate is good, and if they’re rioting for a thing I hate then it’s demons killing different kinds of demons and that’s funny.
Nazis doing what they do best- dying on the eastern front.
