Not really? Most people actually can and shave their pits outside of fashion catalogues. Defecating is also normal body thing yet most wash their asses.

It’s either underwear (as in something that needs something on top of it, not an outer wear) or sportswear, there are women designs that are appropriate to wear outside in casual setting they are ‘just shirts’.

Wearing tank top is pretty disrespectful and inappropriate, professor said the truth.

Yes, wearing tank top is inappropriate.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 day ago:
Do you think that schools should spend weeks to months of time to train pronounciation of places in hundred different languages? How would you even decide which way is the correct pronounciation, if languages evolve and might sound different even in the span of a century, not even counting places where multiple ethnic groups live and have different languages and different names for places?
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 day ago:
Localized names are ok, why do you need to pronounce something “correct” way if your language for example doesn’t have needed sounds or they are extremely hard to pronounce, are you going to learn how to pronounce south african clicks to pronounce some city the correct way?

- Comment on Ex-PlayStation exec argues 'only the dog can hear' differences between consoles and gaming PCs: 'They're all quite similar' 5 days ago:
There is no built-in (usable) browser on ps5 nor switch, and nintendo will burn to the ground before allowing people installing their own software on ‘their’ hardware.

Start with a normal (as in one ofmy choice) web browser being installable on them, next step is opening to other marketplaces (lol).

- Comment on Should I Ditch My Gas Appliances? They’re a big source of greenhouse gases. Here’s what to think about if you’re considering switching to electric. 1 week ago:
Earthquakes is a worry but you can switch your stove to gas cylinder in less than 20 minutes, and they store for 2-3 years.

Unless you are very priveleged (as in your electricity needs are met by your own generation completely and you have backup generation as well) you should not, it would bite you in the ass when bad weather or something way less cool will destroy your centralised power lines and/or power plant.

- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 1 week ago:
Game development now is cheaper and more accessible than ever before, blockbuster games with budgets in hundreds of millions should flop and never recoup money invested in them. Graphically games made last year and games made ten years ago are comparable, and on nintendo switch both would look horrible so graphics is out, games from nintendo often are entertaining, but simple-ish and not all that engaging to play them for months at a time (there are exceptions but they are extremely rare). Third party games can be bought two-three-four times cheaper while being better games. So unless you are very financially stable and $100 for a game is like a cup of coffee to you arguing for increase of price goes counter to your interest as a player.

40 years ago they didn’t sell them by millions with each copy cost being a few cents. It’s price gouging simple as.

Turkey is up there in the fucked upparts of the world to be honest, not sure about stability, even less sure about futire of NATO, long-standing territorial and cultural clashes with like every neighbour except those that are on the other side of the sea?
Anyway what kind of use is allowed? Is this agricultural only or you can do whatever? How large is it? Do you have water, electricity connection?
- Comment on How do you pronounce "centaur" and why? 2 weeks ago:
That’s like the most correct one if there even could be a ‘correct’ way to pronounce a word of foreign origin in most languages.
- Comment on How do you pronounce "centaur" and why? 2 weeks ago:
So how do you pronounce it?
- Comment on How do you pronounce "centaur" and why? 2 weeks ago:
ken-tavr, I think that’s similar to how it pronounced in a lot of languges around here, it’s also pretty similar how original greeks did it (kένταυροι)

- Comment on Is it a common thing for people who have left authoritarian countries to still feel the fear of their now-former country? 5 weeks ago:
Poland is an example that I know of, and again this thread is not about refugees. Feeling threatened and not safe is not enough to be considered one. You’ve just changed your stance completely in two posts while doubling down on irrelevant parts. And no moving from usa somewhere and moving from irrelevant country somewhere are completely different experiences with completely different attitudes to the people that are trying to move. That’s not even funny how different they are and how easy a person from usa would have it compared to any non-firstworld country.

People in boats are absolute minority of people moving to other countries, and applying for visa is a normal way of moving countries.And climate and refugees has nothing to do with the post where a chinese person in usa asks how can they move to another country. And no most countries do not require proof of wealth for work visa, some even allow to work start working and apply for visa later e.g. Poland.

Sorry if I hurt your feelings, but that’s how people move to other countries. Getting refugee status is either for extremely privileged or extremely desperate. And moving out of your own volition from usa isn’t the second case.

Air controlling any gaseous substance and water any liquid would have been cool. By the way can waterbenders bend steam? Or change phase from ive to water to steam?
