That’s an incredibly backwards way of thinking, and is absolutely not how any of this works. That’s especially not what sanctions work. And real presumptuous of you to assume that you’re not talking to someone who’s doing all they can as someone who’s not in the government to fight in order to pressure the government to change.

I really hope this is a joke, and it just went over my head. Because if it’s not, it’s almost as bad as the anon who has it out for every Russian citizen, including the innocent ones.

Not much, but nobody else seems to know what this thread has to do with exactly either, so it all evens out. Something something Americans, something something triggered popcorn is the only throughline in this thread. And this thread doesn’t have much to do with the secret either.

-ONCE AND FOR ALL!

Re: Daylight savings (US)

(Anonymous) 2022-03-13 09:35 am (UTC)(link)
I still hate Daylight savings in general, but it’s kind of helping me this time with my absolutely insanely out of whack circadian rhythm. Having one less hour, “springing forward” as they say, means I have slightly less time to wait to go to bed tonight after I try to force myself to stay up all day for the first time in weeks. I’d like to get a more normal sleep schedule soon, so waking up at 2 in the morning doesn’t feel like I got lucky and slept in anymore. And that’s not hyperbole. So usually, screw Daylight savings. But right now, I’ll take all the help I can get.

And hedgehogs.

Ahh, but *then* you add the shipping costs. For anyone outside of the US they are pretty astronomical, particularly when you also have to pay import duty on top of that for each book.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-13 11:29 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry, yes, it was a joke, in reaction to that incredibly stupid russian-hating anon; their stance was so over-the-top misguided I could not believe anyone would actually hold it in serious.

And super glu (not to be used as lube).

Would you stop prefacing every comment with lmao, it is really obnoxious. Please.

How bout a hug instead?

Too busy laughing to bother trying to mess around with anyone or anything.

Better luck next time?

I always thought The Fifth Element was one of the most realistic portrayals of the future since it's basically the present but with more technology. As far as I know, Futurama is similar in tone, so, yeah, I agree. Unfortunately.

The shipping costs are flat rate for every non-US country and priced less than his store, you can literally get the ebooks, which are drm-free, and again, you can wait until they are traditionally sold. I don't know, I'm not seeing it.

Interesting, I didn't realize every person triggered in this thread, including yourself, was an American. Most of the responses are anon; you have no idea if it's between two people or fifteen, or if one American or multiple were "triggered."

I'm sure you'll claim you're not triggered, so I'll take your word for it.

I really don't care if people point out negative shit about America. I'd probably agree for the most part. It's the sanctimoniousness and hypocrisy that pisses me off (obviously, not on the point that some Americans think USA is the greatest country in the world). If you wanna take potshots (and yes, that's exactly what https://fandomsecrets.dreamwidth.org/2575475.html?thread=1081863795#cmt1081863795 was), better make sure your own history is clean.

Yeah, I'm like this with a lot of foreign media on Netflix that I really enjoy.

I don't care what fandom thinks about Tribes of Europa.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-13 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, queue a bunch of triggered Americans...

It's cue. Like the Yanks appeared as if on cue, not in a line.

The difference is there does overall seem to be an attitude from America that they are the 'best country on the planet!' despite there being major flaws in their system.
As an Aussie, I'm sick of being portrayed as backwater hicks in American media and generally online, when the majority of us live in cities and are pretty sophisticated.


Nobody thinks badly of Australians. Nobody thinks about you much at all except for Chris Hemsworth, Nicole Kidman, and koalas.

The UK's entry for Eurovision is fantastic. (Never thought I'd type that sentence, lol)

Incredibly cute!!! Hope the live version is as good as this. I hope they will get at least some points this year......

(Anonymous) 2022-03-13 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Sup Case!

We haven't spoken in years and years, but I'm glad to see you're still doing fandom secrets!

(Anonymous) 2022-03-13 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I believe most of them apologized in some sort of way? So idk what your problem is. Angry about your latest healthcare bill?
Also "but European countries did bad things too" isn't the sick burn you think it is.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-13 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, I’m really bad at telling when something is a joke, and I’ve taken so many seriously that I add “this might also be a joke” to almost all my responses. I understand now.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-14 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I believe most of them apologized in some sort of way?

Why is this phrased as a question? Are you not sure, because you didn't actually do any research? Or is it because you know that deep down the "apologies" were somewhere in the range of non-apologetic to barely-apologetic, never quite getting to the core of the atrocities?

Also, ayrt didn't limit the countries to European, so I'm not sure where you're getting that from.
