[17:43:28] [2/2] The Empire State at home: [17:44:43] I don’t understand how government design can be so hit or miss [17:45:16] either a concrete monstrosity, a corporate slab, or a masterpiece, and no in between ever [18:06:19] As someone who saw the ESB yesterday, they didn’t even get the decor right [18:06:32] I mean, it doesn’t even look like the Dutch flag? [18:08:13] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1342196125154938891/image0.jpg?ex=67b8c10d&is=67b76f8d&hm=6471acc3a3fad5caf68b6139f873572ab9c2a7d9ef650f50982ebc4dd6e90c24& [18:08:38] Not my photo, but this is how it looked like last night when I was leaving NYC [18:12:08] ESB but on an extreme budget [18:12:36] 🔥 [18:12:50] I’ve never been to Brasilia to memory yet sadly [18:12:57] I have a family member who goes a decent bit [18:57:42] Its a Non-profit organisation. and a religious headquarters [18:58:45] sometimes bland is more practical [19:11:33] [1/2] @felenov Maquette of the Efteling Headquarters [19:11:33] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1342212062927130718/maq2.png?ex=67b8cfe4&is=67b77e64&hm=9bac5480391b2f94192d20b3308f2b8d3c1ec8dc5548289ca9a7be1b8f8699d8& [19:12:33] I don't like all those sanitised buildings. Too modern for me [19:12:58] I rather like old buildings that are telling their story [19:13:28] Even if they are newly build, they can look like they are 100's of years old [19:15:12] [1/2] This is it now [19:15:12] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1342212982847045733/thumb.png?ex=67b8d0c0&is=67b77f40&hm=9e57ed127365fdf942a9efa541b5c98dc91d65287cf182fc5eb2ec83908653af& [20:13:51] All those buildings look kinda mid to me [20:16:45] wiki i administer [20:16:53] http://chinafake.wiki [20:20:12] What's it about [20:21:07] Nah. I used to be a U.N Peacekeeper. More less of working for them and more of being voluntold by my government. [20:21:23] Ah [20:21:25] Peacekeepr? [20:21:30] Peacekeeper. [20:22:39] What do they do [20:22:58] We're basically a military organisation but for the United Nations. [20:23:16] Member countries volunteer personnel of their own armed forces to serve in the peacekeeping corps. [20:23:28] Ah. [20:23:47] Places we were involved in (and extremely militarily) are... Somalia, Yugoslavia, [20:23:56] The now ongoing mess in the Middle East. [20:24:03] Almost entirety of Africa. [20:24:25] Yugoslavia doesn't exist anymore [20:26:04] I know. [20:26:16] But peacekeepers roots trace back to that particular crisis. [20:27:16] Our mission (although often weirdly interpreted by our U.N bureaucrats) are basically: protect civilians, ensure transportation of U.N aids. Form perimeter to divide two hostile parties from killing each other. [20:27:37] Uphold local law and international law (very weirdly interpreted.) [20:27:45] And good ol' keeping the peace. [20:27:54] Stabilise countries, protect U.N assets. The usual. [20:28:33] Uhuh, is that the main UN armed forces or [20:29:23] [1/2] Most of what I seen of UN armed forces is them arriving, making the situation worse, then being like "you're welcome" [20:29:23] [2/2] Like Americans :D [20:29:50] We aren't called armed forces and our operation isn't like the United States Armed Forces. [20:29:59] We mostly go in with the cooperation of the local government. [20:30:14] And our job is to help said government preventing say, two tribes from wiping out each others. [20:30:22] Let’s not diss too much on the people who’s job it is to help protect innocent people maybe [20:30:39] Few people know this but actually the UN was originally supposed to have its own army [20:30:41] We're called peacekeeping forces and we work pretty hard. We're extremely restricted compared to normal armed forces. [20:30:42] Said people are part of an organization that makes my life hell so [20:30:58] It's really hard to try to not diss them, but I am trying. [20:31:25] I don't think it's right to make generalizations though [20:31:28] Yes. If we trace the peacekeeping roots. It would be the Korean war. As the Korean War referred to Allied forces as "U.N. Forces". [20:32:00] Ehhh, instead of comparing U.N Peacekeepers to the Americans. Calling us "Uninvolved in peace" is more appropriate. [20:32:18] Due to how our policy works and how the U.N officials tell us to turn a blind eyes to a lot of stuff. [20:32:24] 🚫 That's why I personally rather see no talks about politics or religion on the Miraheze Discord server. Like at all! [20:32:39] Yeah... [20:32:43] Our job is just too political. [20:32:48] This isn’t really politics tbf [20:32:59] technically the UN isn't supposed to be about politics, but oh well [20:33:04]
