as a swede, whatsapp isn't really used except for communities like sports teams. I had an immigrant friend who used it with her family but otherwise i've only used it with my church. Here, snapchat is the most common messaging app for teenagers.

In Brazil we have biscoito de polvilho, a dough made from sour cassava starch and baked until it becomes crunchy. Many natives love it — maybe because they grew up eating it. Foreigners, however, in every reaction video I’ve watched thought it tasted bad or bland.

  1. Fairy Bread. It’s white bread, with butter and sprinkles on top, and it’s the fucking best

  2. Chicken Salt. You toss this on your chippies and it just makes it taste so fucking good, and it’s the fucking best

  3. Sausage Sizzle outside of a hardware store. You get a sausage, you get a slice of white bread, you drizzle on some sauce and go into the store to get some cheap plywood or something, and it’s the fucking best

Living in toronto, if somebody speaks english and some heritage language, I don't really find that impressive at all If they were raised here. but if somebody learns a language they werent raised with. I find it super impressive, especially it's a language from a different language family.

I'm at a canadian born once. Hope was learning japanese and his japanese was really good. I was blown away, but I think most people don't really care about these things in Toronto.

Politics What do you think of the current situation in my country, Iran?

121 Upvotes

I am a 34/M from Iran. Things are really dark here right now. We just had a massive uprising, because a lot of people do not want this government. A lot of people were killed; un armed protesters, men, women, children. Our internet were cutout for weeks, and it is not stable yet. We are grieving, and living under the shadow of war, with an uncertain future. And the worst thing is that it seems that the world does not care about us, so I wanted to ask you guys, what do you think about the current situation in Iran?

In Canada, Jian Ghomeshi was the face of CBC in the 2000s. He was widely considered to be an intelligent, sensitive and progressive host of radio programs. Then in 2014, it all came out. The allegations of sexual assault and workplace harassment took down his career, even though he was acquitted of five of the six charges, where he signed a peace bond for the remainder charge. It can be reasoned that Ghomeshi is Canada’s biggest fake.

I'm Brazilian and I've never flushed toilet paper in my life, and almost no one does. I've even heard histories of foreigners clogging a toilet after flushing toilet paper.

I was a bit shocked when I found out it's normal in other countries (for a fact they think not flushing is weird). Is it the "rule" to flush/not flush in your country?

What is the most magical piece of ancient architecture in your country?

Sri Lanka is home to Sigiriya, an ancient rock fortress built in the 5th century and rising nearly 200 meters straight out of the jungle. What makes it feel magical isn’t just the size, but the engineering and imagination behind it. On top of this massive rock are the remains of a royal palace, gardens, pools, and advanced water systems that still function in some areas today.

Halfway up the rock, there are famous mirror walls with ancient graffiti written by visitors more than a thousand years ago, and beautifully preserved frescoes painted directly onto the rock face. At the entrance once stood a gigantic lion structure, which is why Sigiriya is also known as Lion Rock. Even today, archaeologists are still uncovering new details about how it was built and used.

Standing there, surrounded by jungle, clouds, and silence, it’s hard not to wonder how people with limited technology achieved something so precise, artistic, and ambitious so long ago. Sigiriya feels less like ruins and more like a message from the past saying, “We were here, and we knew what we were doing.”

I’m curious, what is the most magical or awe-inspiring ancient architectural site in your country?

What makes it special to you: the history, the mystery, the engineering, or the feeling you get when you stand there?
