#UnitedStates produces the most barrels of oil per day followed by #SaudiArabia according to #google

In reference to my pinned post about Americans not aware that there are other people out there.

A conversation I had with a very lovely lady on py Mastodon account.

Her: " something, something, PNW, something, something..."
Me: "PNW ???"
Her: "Yes KUAM." (I can't remember the exact acronym)

Not a second it crossed her mind that I was asking her what PNW meant (now I know, until I forget again) and worse she doubled down.

I guess that's also a good reminder that wherever you're from acronyms are usually not understood by everyone.

the “US economy going strong under Biden” thinkpieces feel like gaslighting.

housing and food costs are through the roof, wages mostly stagnant, but corps are posting record profits so gdp goes up.

if Biden loses this it’ll be in part because he failed to reign in corporate profits.

Ahh. Well I'm punching real #nazis by outing them. They have been emboldened by the #republicans in the #unitedstates

#911 was an unquestionable tragedy. What followed was also awful. When people talk about national unity after #September11, they are rewriting history. It was a time filled with #islamophobia and immense hatred. People took their understandable anger and grief and placed blame on those who didn’t deserve it and the #UnitedStates government took advantage of our mourning to unjust start wars and restrict freedoms of its own citizens. These results can’t be disentangled from that day.

For more than a century, hundreds of thousands of Native American children were forced to attend boarding schools. Those schools stripped children of their identities and cultures. Deaths are estimated to be in the thousands as they suffered abuse, neglect, beatings and forced labor. Stephanie Sy reports on new findings about the role churches and religious groups played.

Thus far, the hold has prevented the #Defense Dept from placing almost 300 of our most experienced & battle-tested leaders into critical posts around the world.
3 of our 5 #military branches —the #Army, #Navy & #MarineCorps — have no #Senate-confirmed #service #chief in place. Instead, these jobs — & dozens of others across the force — are being performed by acting ofcls w/o the full range of #legal authorities necessary to make the decisions that will sustain the #UnitedStates’ #military edge.

Dear American people,

This is your semi-regular reminder that #Americans are not the only people using the internet and that the #UnitedStates - as lovely as it is - is not the only country. Actually, for the first time in the history of #socialmedia, you're not even the majority here, on the #Fediverse. This is a great learning opportunity.

So, a few tips:

- Beginner level: Normalize using "Americans" instead of "we," using "the #US" instead of "here" (it's "there" for us), the name of the place you're talking about instead of "there" (it could be "here" for us), and the name of the people you're talking about instead of "they" (which sometimes sounds a bit derogatory, as if you didn't really care about other people... you care, right?) It really makes a difference.

- Intermediate level: When you talk about something happening in the US, do not assume and express yourself as if the United States was the default country and as if everyone understands the context of what's happening. Background information helps. Contextualization is gold. Once again, just adding "in the US" when you talk about something makes a world of a difference.

- Advanced level: Try to talk about other things than just American things. Open yourself to the rest of the world, and learn about it. It's an awesome place, really. And, in my opinion, the Fediverse is the perfect tool to interact with people from many other countries (you also could do that on your previous social media of choice, but I understand that it was easier to stay in your cultural bubble back then).

- Expert level: Try to use the metric system... No, I'm joking here. I know you can't. You get a free pass for this one. You can still keep on measuring in refrigerators, or watermelons, depending on the scale.
Well, maybe, just maybe, when you talk about temperatures, adding an "F" (or a "C" if you can) would help a bit. Yesterday, someone was talking about the crazy temperature of 46 degrees and I still don't know if they meant 46°F or 46°C as they're both pretty crazy temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere this time of the year.
Oh yes, my Australian friends also told me to remind you all (not just Americans this time) to be mindful of them when you talk about seasons (but they also added that they're used it when you don't... still, that'd be nice...)

Thank you for your understanding and your efforts. If you have any questions, we're here to help.

Love,
The Fediverse and the World, and me, your friend, DavidB.
