Shrug. "Not so bad or good that I've had any reason to take particular note. How's your president?"

"Mediocre centrist."

Nod. "I'm not very politically minded."

Permalink

"It's overrated."

Permalink

"Being into politics as a member of the general public."

Permalink

"Ah. That's not very common in my country, although of course everyone has an opinion on policies that directly impact them."

Permalink

"That's only reasonable."

Permalink

"One could hardly avoid it, really!"

Permalink

"Oh, you probably could, just go 'I reserve judgment in the absence of a bird's-eye statistical-level view of this policy's impact'."

Snort. "I could, I suppose. Most people I know couldn't."

Permalink

"It's probably not worth the effort for most things."

"Rather. And I don't think most people have the relevant education to build off of."

Permalink

"What's your educational system like?"

Permalink

"Primary education from seven to thirteen, secondary education from fourteen to twenty, and tertiary education from twenty to twenty-seven. Primary is mandatory, secondary is optional but strongly encouraged, and tertiary is a bit exclusive."

Permalink

"Huh. In my country education's compulsory till age eighteen which is around when most people finish secondary school and then there's a range of tertiary stuff varying in exclusivity and prestige."

Permalink

"I have met people who could not be induced with palaces and the sword to stay in school until eighteen."

Permalink

"Some people don't get along with formal education."

Permalink

"Rather, yes. And then you have people like my sibling, whose residence could be mistaken for a library."

Permalink

"I'm the more academic of my twinset."

Permalink

"Ooh, you're a twin too?"

Permalink

"Yeah, my brother's name is Alex."

Permalink

"My sibling's Kalethras."

Permalink

"Do you not have gendered words for siblings or is the translation effect just not rendering it?"

Permalink

"I think the translation isn't rendering it."
