Oppenheimer has been released in Japan, eight months after its global release. We spoke to historian Naoko Wake to learn why the U.S. refuses to take accountability for the war crimes it committed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki and why all of this is relevant to us today.

Like Latin in the Middle ages never had a large amount of speakers as it was concentrated among the clergy, which was a small percentage of the population. But it was a language people from all parts of the Catholic world learned, so that's what the clergy used to communicate.

Probably next in line for lingua franca is Spanish, but it's a very distant second place. Maybe there's an argument to be made for French but I feel like there's a lot of heavy competition for lingua francas in Africa so not sure how much that is growing in the future.

Four students from Johns Hopkins have invented Tastee Tape, a tape that helps keep your burrito closed. The tape is safe to eat, gluten free and vegan and is colorless* (*Tape dyed blue in picture for visibility purposes)

@crypt2d2ot That's not the criterion for a lingua franca. old French wasn't a lingua Franca in Europe in the Middle ages despite having by far the most number of speakers. Swahili has 16 times a mamy L2 speakers as it does L1 speakers.

@orange__juice77 I'm sorry but cheap doordash hamburgers are simply not a human right. There's a difference between having a weekly grocery shopping delivered at home and this shit.

Nothing pisses me off more than the swiss alpine dairy industry. You herd 30 cows on an entire mountain range? In a country where the average salary is $6000/mo? And you're selling that milk for $1.90 a litre at the store? Bro this isn't an industry. It's state-sponsored LARP.

The alps aren't "nature". It's an ecological sterilized pasture. Begging people to do environmentalism that is based on more than just vibes.

@reynoldsrd People understimate how much even the forestry in Europe is carefully manicured and developed. A trip to a place like this blows the mind for many.

@sinistersocioxd Even with cigs it's still less than 300 lol. Generic American butter and flour and sugar are perfectly fine to consume (insofar as they are unhealthy, it's not because of additives)

Mรฉlenchon in reference to a Jewish finance minister: "Moscovici behaves like someone who has stopped thinking in French, like someone who thinks only in the language of international finance" I'm sorry but pretending he hasn't said anything antisemitic ever is being blind

@ItsKikoKuso Unfortunately the one in the US is for seniors only I think. Lack of access for disabled people is a serious issue in the US but the people's deliveroo is obviously not really the solution here.
