    Interesting observation by a port employee in Mexico, apparently the major ports in Mexico have had a surge in traffic by chinese ships, mostly for transboarding. So they’re using these ports mostly as logistics hubs not necesarily dropping containers in Mexico. This was previously done in Panama.

    This is very likely caused by the panama canal fiasco where americans forced panama to break the COSCO contract. That concession lost them a lot of business.

    There’s this dude at my job who has a son that has been recently diagnosed with autism and he says he doesn’t know how to handle it properly yet as he has no experience with autism. The other day I caught him changing his shoes mid day because he bought new shoes and said ‘yeah I always do this as I have troubles with getting used to new shoe feels often’

    My friend, I may have some news for you

      The amount of people who are autistic without realizing it is staggeringly high.

      Hell, I didn’t realize I was autistic for years upon years until I started learning about what autism is and realized I ticked most of the boxes lol.

    hi i posted this in wrong thread but i stand by it

    it is true entirely that xitter is filled with bots and it infests almost any avenue you pick, but while i’d only largely heard secondhand stories, scrolling xcancel looking at pop-culture blogs really shocks you because it’s kind of staggering the level of cultural revolution the anglosphere desperately needs in every single facet of life

    Sometimes I’m reminded that the French speaking part of the country has a media boycot of the far right. They will not broadcast anything about them, in any way. And as a result, the far right has a very hard time getting their points across over there.

    Really enjoying the Imperial '80s podcast on Millennials Are Killing Capitalism. They go over '80s movies and discuss from an anti-imperialist Marxist perspective, super interesting and fun to listen to. It’s been my go-to thing lately for when I want something more relaxing to decompress in the evenings after catching up on all the more serious news and analysis.
