broadly speaking I agree with the idea that the flaws of the USSR have been exaggerated by capitalist critics, but I gotta say, I'm not especially sympathetic to the argument "unlike Actual Imperialist nations, the USSR nobly sacrificed its resources to help its backward satellite states Rise Up"

like damn that sure is an argument that "actual" imperialist nations have famously never used lol

#i don't mean to suggest that soviet influence had No Positive Effects for - say - the baltics or poland #but i do think it's naive to act like anti-soviet sentiment in those places just spawned out of nowhere #like there's a ~disembodied spirit of reaction~ that appears regardless of people's actual living conditions #anyway. as usual it's the hardcore Actually Existing Socialism Defenders that make me more suspicious about things like this #while the China Is Tyranically Putting An End To Seven Figure Salaries guys are the ones who make me go 'damn china sounds awesome actually #so i will admit that some of this is may just be a contrarian / broadly cynical tendency on my part

personally I think curly's real name is actually Cuthbert and he Hates it so much and curly is his attempt to seem somewhat cooler and less of a bullying target (Jimmy knows his real name and on Pain Of Death he is never allowed to speak it ever)

#catfish speaks #mouthwashing #captain curly #curly mouthwashing #sorry not sorry curly is a meek slightly wet cat loser to me #i come from a long culture of making up stupid nicknames for people (australian)#and the second i saw curly's name i was like 'thats a nickname for something embarrassing he hates'#no shade to tue person who figured out all the names of the characters but i Hate most of them #'''grant curly''' im not fucking calling him that he is Cuthbert to me and thats final #Jimmy zare is. interesting. i like the idea of him having mixed heritage but in a second generation twice removed kinda way #like his grandparents emigrated and his familys been in Melbourne ever since and are technically white but it's complicated #Anya. babygirl anya. i wish i knew more about this naming decision #why a japanese one??? im m #mostly just baffled??? like. anything vaguely russian/Ukrainian/czech/baltic would have made sense. even a white name. but Japanese???#i wish i knew more about the naming decision here #same with daisuke #i thino probably cos the game is meant to be set in america the prevalance of hispanic names makes sense there #im just. again Wondering about the thought process #swansea i caj accrpt but personally i like to think its his last name #and his first name is David cos that's welsh and swansea the place is. is it in wales??? i cannae remember #ok googled it and it is Welsh #also kimda funny thay googling it brought up the place in tasmania. ah colonialism </3 #anyway. thats all.#curly is actually Cuthbert is the one i have strongest feelings about #followed by anya

A bit strange feeling of living in Lithuania while looking like... Lithuania

#fun fact my voice is also close to ht Lithuania UNLESS I am very pissed off #then my voice drastically becomes super low #and when I'm singing too #and in everyday life I have this 🌸✨️🌸✨️🌸✨️ aura around me while 99% of time I am thinking about killing stupid and cruel people #and i have giant eyebags and super slim figure because of the fucked up mental health due to ruzzian invasion...#thinking about my family's village which is famous for having “vikings heritage”#my great grandfather wanted to excavate a local landmark: a stone grave with an ancient cross.#he and his friends found a giant warrior there #with a huge sword #they got so scared that they just covered it all up and ran away #I WANT TO EXCAVATE IT AGAIN SO MUCHHHH #i am 99% sure that warrior was Baltic like come on what would Nordic vikings do in the swamps of Northern Ukraine #my village is honestly such a strange place... it's pagan #it has some Baltic and Asian heritage since like Golden Horde times #swamps and forests are such a well preserving place whatever the hell was going on there thousands of years ago still lives now #it's the jungles with scary people #it has some nasty history of incest too... and Christian sect...#it's a godforsaken place with NOTHING there except for the ancient graveyard and a couple of houses but FOR SOME REASON random people still #go to live there. and they die there. like why #u stoopid go get a job

interact with this post in some way for me to randomly* assign you a country, territory, autonomous zone, or other region to research and follow current events for in 2024

Some clarifications before we get started

I'm using a random list generator to come up with these assignments so micronations won't be included

Everyone SHOULD be learning what they can about the genocide being inflicted against Palestinians and the Israel vs Palestine conflict more broadly, so for that reason I want everyone to treat Palestine as another country to learn more about in addition to the one I assign

interacting with this post in any way will be treated as an invitation to given you an assignment, this includes interacting exclusively to tell me NOT to do so

There's no set deadlines for turning anything in; if you wanna send new findings each week you're welcome to do that but you can also submit them monthly or even compile them to release at the end of 2024

Multiple interactions via the same blog won't lead to multiple assignments unless you explicitly ask for more

While I'm not going to explicitly require or forbid you to use specific sources I'd encourage you to look at sources both from within your assigned nation as well as from those outside of it, and in general be aware of fact checking and whatnot

*and some clarification: this won't be entirely at random because I'm going to generally try to avoid assigning anybody their own country...but like if you don't have it in your bio I'm not gonna ask what it is I'll just not worry about it when giving you your assignment
