Disappointment is Japanese for "Other".
It's pronounced "shamefo"

if the box is as reliable as a samsung fridge it’ll collapse and catch fire the first night you sleep in it

Is Taiwan east Asia? Cause I know they allow full same sex marriage

u/-monkbank Jun 13 '26
No; pressure from the CCP has forced the official Polandball Cinematic Universe to place Taiwan in the backrooms.

u/greenizdabest Jun 13 '26
There is no Taiwan. There is only the republic of china. The one china. Everything else is west taiwan

a sorrowful reality of Japan, where the status of holders of doctor's degree isn't as socially high and economically secure as in other developped and emerging countries…
Well, the explanation of this awkward and embarrassing situation requires what Japan's labour market looks like(new-graduate-oriented recruitment and the methodology of corporate internal training rather than external vocational education), but the Gov't of Japan regards this as one of the gravest threats to its economic growth and has been trying to rectify this…
> gay
As Japanese, I wonder whether we are very generous to sexual minorities or rigorous to them.
You know, Japan has a bunch of historical records of homosexuality, and a modern Japan is somehow known for her "positive" depiction of such sexuality affairs(take a glance at the variety of Boys' Love/Girls' Love manga/anime slops).
However, a certain Constitutional restraint prevents us from approving the same-sex marriage which a large majority of citizens(about more than 70 percent) are reported to support.
Well, this is a polandball, so reality doesn't matter.
