Sinkhole accidents are rare in South Korea, with fewer than 200 reported cases every year on average – significantly less than the number recorded in neighbouring Japan.
That’s rare? Japan has MORE?? 😱

If your passport has the gender designation X, or if you have changed your gender, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs advises contacting the American embassy before traveling for guidance on how to proceed.
Meanwhile in Finland, the advisory notes that if the gender on an applicant's passport differs from the gender confirmed at birth, U.S. authorities may deny entry. It's recommended to check the entry requirements with U.S. authorities in advance.
I came so close to not putting a rush order on my renewal after the election, but I’m really glad I did. I feel for the people who have to wait and hope shit will get better in 4 years.
Tesla cars are stupid tech. As the cars that use lidar demonstrated, this is a solved problem. There don’t have to be self driving cars that run over kids. They just refuse to integrate the solution for no discernible reason, which I’m assuming is really just “Elon said so.”
He was stretching the truth as much as possible to convince local art dealers to sell his stuff as an investment, got sued for it, and (spoiler if you’re wanting to listen to the episodes) may or may not have intentionally killed himself to avoid going to trial over it.
Thomas Kinkade did this with art prints in the 90s and 00s. Mass print them and then have ‘trained artists’ go in and add a little highlighting, and charge a premium for it.
Behind the Bastards has a good 2 part episode on him.
Net -4 approval isn’t what I’d call high
o7 Fair! I just always try to be very positive about seeking therapy, since anxieties like that kept me from seeking therapy for a long time. If you don’t need to hear it, maybe someone else who does will read it
If they can’t handle baby level memes like this they’re not cut out to do anything other than teach suburbanites basic emotional regulation. Which like, there’s a need for that. But the average therapist isn’t going to be deeply disturbed or anything like that, they spend classroom time studying how mental health issues distort your perception and thinking. Usually not via memes, but this is just the picture book version of showing a therapist your journal.
Edit: also, the fear that your therapist will ‘fire’ you or otherwise react badly if you are completely honest about your mental health is something to discuss with a therapist, too! It’s a really common fear and they should be able to address your concerns.
Fun fact: if you give a therapist a folder of all the memes you relate to, you can speedrun therapy
Almost identical, my understanding is it’s slightly off since it’s such an old measurement. But for everyday purposes it’s the same.
Ever since this broke I’ve been so curious to see which are dealers with bad, rushed paperwork before a deadline that they let pile up before mass-submitting, and how many are outright fraud. Neither would surprise me at this point.
