Figured this could go here. My friend wants to go to Bali for her 50th bday next year and I’m trying to talk her out of it, especially after seeing the info here.
Anyone been to the Mentawai islands off of Sumatra? Saw them on Parlay Revival YouTube and they look beautiful and up and coming in the touristy scene. Figured that might be a suitable alternative.
If the populace is too stupid to push back, or too disconnected to pay attention, this is what will happen. These companies care about profit in any way possible. Whatever it takes to hit their quarterly projections.

I absolutely had this debate in my mind yesterday a couple of times. What if this is all just a social experiment? How can this be real and have no one stopping it?
It’s becoming more and more infuriating to me that a large chunk of his voters apparently mainly voted for him because they thought he was just going to give them money. What. The. Fuck. Is. Wrong. With. People.

Not to derail further, but the thing that stands out to me the most is people will just pull out in front of you at any time. I'll be going down Burnet at 45mph and someone will pull out of a parking lot when I'm 30 yards away. Just go right ahead pal. I could just t-bone the shit out of you, but oh well.
I contend that driving has gotten exponentially worse since Covid. I'm not sure if the lack of driving for a few months made everyone forget the rules or if people just stopped giving a shit about the rules, but my god I hate driving now.
