at some point in your life you will be boiling fruit, water, sugar, and lemon juice in a pot to make a syrup or jam. the instructions will tell you to simmer for a certain amt of time. your timer will go off and you will look at the pot and go, “hm, this doesn’t look thick enough. maybe i’ll let it go for another 10 minutes.” this is the devil speaking. it’s only so liquid right now because it is at boiling point. it will thicken when it cools down. learn from the follies of my youth and do not let this happen to you
i’ve been thinking a lot about the insane dehumanization of north koreans lately (they’re not allowed to smile, they’re all brainwashed, they would let their family die to save a picture of their “dear” leader etc) so here’s another post with pictures from the dprk of north koreans just… being people
it’s revolutionarily eye opening to westerners who’ve been provided nothing but incredibly biased ‘news’ against nk since birth. you are not immune to propaganda
everyone in the notes going onto a post about how citizens of the dprk should be viewed as fully realized people and going “i agree they should be viewed as people but ONLY if you attach the disclaimer that they live under an evil government to their every move” perhaps take a moment to consider that you are doing the dehumanizing op is talking about - @pleuvoire
yeah…
here’s an album with 400+ images of life outside of Pyongyang
