Felt this. I haven't really ever felt proud of America. It was weird growing up with immigrant parents, proud of their new homeland, just for me to learn of all its atrocities across the world and be like: "y'all moved here for this? They murdered and raped your birth country!" I really want to be more optimistic and hopeful, it's just so hard with everything going on and how overt the racists are these days.

Living the dream friend. I want that sense of community so bad. All my life I've lived isolated from others and it fucking sucks. My dad would always scold me: "go outside and play, get off the computer, blah blah blah" but like with whom? Glad your kids get to be kids. Cheers

Wait I have that one! My dad has it too, but my brother doesn't. All three of us are colorblind too lol.

Wait there was a nuclear test less than a year ago?

Edit: Wikipedia says the most recent test was on 2017/09/03, making this photo taken on 2018/04/01

Edit 2: I found the article this photo is from with more context. TL:DR it was reset back in 2022 bc the US conducted two clandestine tests.

I was in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam, recently and it was like a ghost town. Can't say I'd recommend it but our hotel put all the guests on one floor and it was still deserted. Great free breakfast but it felt weird being there. There's lots of tourist infrastructure there. Multiple cruise lines, hotels, night markets, etc. But unfortunately the country experienced a lot of corruption and COVID cut off their tourist supply. Now a lot of buildings lay half finished or abandoned. Would highly recommend other places in Vietnam but this seemed apt for your question.
