The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

Me and my brother are drinking Margaritas and reminiscing about our trip to Capac in January of 2019. It feels like it was winter of this year, not last.

If you’re ever having a bad day, just keep in mind that things could always be a whole lot worse.

For instance: think about how today I somehow managed to lose $11 worth of postage stamps. Right after I bought them.

You can change your mind about things at any time, Gen.

As for NSG, if you appear sincere -- over time -- people will generally accept that.

I was intending to just stop posting for a while, but that wouldn't really work. So I'll see if people can believe that I changed my mind about essentially everything.

Unless I lose the regional election. If that happens, I'm going to let this nation CTE.

It’s got an English dub. However, I prefer to watch German with English subtitles.

It’s very interesting to see a story set in Germany though. Is it really a German thing for kids to hit each other “casually” on the back of each other’s heads like a high five or was that just a gimmick to show how annoying some of the kids were?

Doesn’t seem very safe

In my experience, yes, kind of. It's the equivalent of the friendly arm punch. It might depend on the region, or generation, or something like that, though.

Okay, but can we also have double spring instead of summer -- nice spring (warm, but not hot, with a good breeze), not chucking it down and freezing all the time?

A new nation for new thoughts might be one idea. Do pop in to say "hello" to TET, though -- if you want to.

But, ultimately, the best way to show you've changed your mind on things is by simply demonstrating it.

Depending on your age, punching them on the arm is an option.

Listen, the asexual person may be the last person you expect to give relationship advice, but hey, I'm the wingman in my little clique of friends for some reason.

Casually compliment them. "Oh, I love your outfit today!" or "Did you do something with your hair? It looks good!"

Drop a few hints. Touch your face and your hair when talking to them, or tease them a little bit, but not enough to get on their nerves.

It can be as simple as saying goodbye when you're leaving an event to them.

USE. BODY. LANGUAGE. Make eye contact, or lean in (primarily with your ears) when they talk to you. Not too close, though. Find subtle, non-creepy ways to touch them (Hug them hello/goodbye, letting your hand rest on their arm or shoulder for a little longer than usual. If they're not the hugging type, then don't be afraid to just tap their shoulder).

Text them about as often as they text you. Don't bombard them with DMs or comments.
