      Editing … I didn't know McD cared so much about the health of the Russian citizens. It brings tears to my eyes. Now Maybe McD will also care for all the other populations aswell.

      Editing … I do wonder if the US goverment put pressure on. If they did then I guess they made some financial deal. Morally, I just don't know. Maccies pulling out of Russia would be massive PR news but I didn't catch it until 9 months after it actually happened.

      Editing … I've been to Russia and I don't recall seeing anything. I mean, in England we have a takeaway on every corner but I never saw anything like that.

      Editing … This news is so old, almost tragically old, all it does it remind us is how long the Ukraine invasion is dragging out and how McD (and basically all US-owned businesses) pulling out at the very second the invasion started is the last thing anyone is thinking about now. Fun fact: Russia McD still exists in zombie form, and a different name. (Tasty and That's It) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbchxBBBLxE But I originally found out about this from a different and longer yt vid. It went into more detail and mentions possible propaganda efforts to make the chain look bad. Very amusing. I'll post it if I can find it.

      Editing … McDonald's app isn't supported on my device. I suppose older Android devices lack the sheer computational power required to order hamburgers.

      Editing … The Initial D film is great. I've not bothered with the cartoon though.

      Editing … The manga is weird, everyone's faces are drawn like mr potato heads, all the panels featuring cars are blurry, and not one character is likeable.

      Editing … ...You know how old the original Initial D anime was, right? It's one of the those relics where the animators literally just started fiddling with 3D animation. The anime was pretty fun to watch.

      Editing … I probably won't comment on the manga, though. I don't think the manga-ka completely figured out the style until a few volumes later. Potato-head...Lol.
