  • How exactly do you “support your family” and “walk off the job”? I don’t see anyone lining up to make sure people affected by the fire (not tourists that might miss out on a vacation) are doing well, or have an income, food, homes, their businesses back, or their lives back. Yeah, there are some charities that are helping, but that’s not the same. As the article states, it’s a double edged sword, but not tripping over snorkeling tourists, or having to go perform for a group of tourists would definitely make the shit residents are going through a lot easier.

    I get it, Hawaii, like many other places, are built largely on tourism, but people need to have a little bit more self awareness and respect for other human beings.

    This is 1000% the entitled “me me me me” culture.




  • Maybe look for peer to peer type setups. Iirc Babel has one. Basically you’re just chatting with someone else. Iirc they also have a live class thing, which might be good too.

    Personally I’m using Duolingo for Spanish, along with watching movies/shows in Spanish (still at kid level so cartoons mostly) and a site (who’s name is escaping me right now) that has a ton of videos that range from very simple to much more complex.
