now, when you feel obligated to a girl because of how good of a person she is, that's a magical feeling

Is that in tandem with the fuzzy feels?

i felt it about a girl i had zero fuzzy feels about.

to my understanding, japan is less racist than it is xenophobic, and even then xenophobia seems more prevalent outside the cities

hoping to visit someday


where do you want to visit? What are you hoping to see? Tbh, Japan is the only country I'm tempting to go back to back lol.

as far as cities go, tokyo, yokohama, kyoto, and kobe for certain

my options are open as far as specific destinations go, though himeji would top the list


I'd go to Kyoto first because that's where your going to see the traditional japanese culture and **** from the anime shows that you watched. Next, go to Tokyo since it's Tokyo lol.

ashamed to say i don't watch much anime lol

i've always been fanatical about the music though, popular (contemporary and vintage) and traditional alike. i'm also fond of both the modern and classical architecture.

so, points of interest related to those would be of particular interest.


Tbh, I was in Japan for two weeks and I only got to do literally 10% of my expectations. Go to Kyoto If you want to see the old school Japanese culture and **** with the castles and Geishas and **** lol. Tokyo is huge and is going to be a mega city. There's areas that traditional looking spots, but most of it is pretty modern and developed.

will do. plenty of time to consolidate plans and study basic japanese.

one of my old internet friends is a syrian native living in venezuela; another, an iranian in sweden, and another an iranian in malaysia

spent a few years in a tight-knit middle eastern / islamic cultural irc channel, so i have contacts in saudi arabia, qatar, malaysia, and egypt off the top of my head

also spent a few years in an african & african american skype group, so i know several africans around the planet; made plans to hang out with a beninese girl in paris next year

as far as irl friends outside the us go, they're mostly residing in europe - ireland, germany, switzerland in particular

People said the same thing about republicans after obama's reelection.

the gop has seen multiple waves of internal dissidence since the neoconservative bush era

the democratic party has likewise been experiencing its own waves of dissidence

while it shakes up ideological orthodoxy, it keeps the major parties "fresh" for every election cycle or so

as such, i'm hard pressed to believe either liberalism or conservatism will die, though history has shown liberalism prevails in the long run (until entropy kicks in, anyway)

Malcolm X's father was killed and his house was burned down when growing up by KKK members. I'd be angry too

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Legion_(political_movement)

His father was killed tied to railcar tracks iirc, but yeah, it was likely the black legion according to rumors in his town afterward, as they had been harassing his family for years and burned down the family home at least once. The authorities labeled it a "suicide" thus depriving the family of eligibility for his life insurance.

He dealt with a lot growing up.

MLK would have hated his hawkishness and inaction about inequity.

Malcolm X would have seen him as a charismatic puppet propped up by the age-old system. He seemingly predicted Obama in at least one of his speeches.
