@jujubes06 Australia has the opposite problem. Too big a gap between ppl meaning those at the end of the queue are out the door in the cold.

Why do Chinese people like to stand so close to you in a queue? I barely had space to manoeuvre my luggage after buying my transit ticket. This used to give me airport rage when I lived in the mainland. I’ve raised my voice at many an uncle.

???? Someone just stole (snatched and ran off) a trip member’s smartphone in the restroom of a very fancy hotel in Hong Kong??? Does this seriously happen??? Extremely bad luck???? The trip already ended (a few people went on to flights out of Hong Kong) so I don’t feel responsible but this would not happen in China and I’m honestly extremely shocked?? The police have been called …

@4Lyricz @ruima 有的是有,有的是没有。比如说我上海家里的麦当劳没有。五星级大酒店最有可能性。

It’s really difficult to explain to visitors that Chinese people, on average (maybe not the much younger first tier city dwellers), prefer squat toilets for public use (seated are great for home). They think sharing a toilet seat is very dirty. It’s probably at least in part because contagious infectious diseases were such an issue even just thirty years ago. Toilet seat covers help, but most (especially older) people would just rather not be anywhere near where someone else had placed their bare rear end. It’s very hard even today to find public “regular” seated toilets in second tier cities and below (or even in outskirts of first tier cities). In the third tier city we were in, we couldn’t find any except for a fancy mall’s handicapped bathroom.

I’m in a top 100 “town” in China. It’s more than an hour south of Suzhou & 400K people. It’s below “5th tier” because it’s not a city. As you can see, it’s still quite developed. There is an OK mall nearby but this is a more typical retail area which is chock full of children’s study / activity centers. I counted at least ten calligraphy / art / dance / tutoring / programming after school The involution is strong

@MyselfDotStudy I can’t see a motive for such an elaborate conspiracy. Often lie, yes. But not always. The govt resisted this outcome for a very long time.

@MyselfDotStudy Have you ever watched the four corners report that set this all off? The footage is quite shocking. If you don’t believe, fair enough. But if it is true (most witnesses were Australian soldiers), it is surely a savage murder of a handicapped old man not killed in action.

BREAKING: Court documents reveal that Australian government war crimes investigators do not even have the NAMES of two individuals Ben Roberts-Smith is alleged to have killed in Afghanistan almost 20 years ago. Nobody has managed to identify these alleged victims - even after $300 million was spent on war crimes investigations over five years. Australian Office of Special Investigations director Ross Barnett already revealed that investigators have: - No crime scenes - No access to the deceased - No bodies - No post-mortem report - No official cause of death - No recovery of projectiles to link to weapons that might have been carried by members of the ADF - No photographs - No site plans - No measurements - No recovery of projectiles - No blood spatter Now we know that after nearly $300 million and 5 years of investigation, they do not even have the NAMES of two alleged victims. If there is no name, no identification, no body - how do we even know they were killed? Does anybody actually think this is fair? Does anybody actually think that a criminal conviction - proved to a criminal standard, beyond reasonable doubt - is remotely possible in these circumstances? Daily Mail: ''Two of the five men Ben Roberts-Smith is accused of murdering while serving with the Special Air Service in Afghanistan have never been identified by war crimes investigators. Court documents seen by the Daily Mail show one of the Victoria Cross recipient's alleged victims is described only as 'Person Under Control 1', or alternatively 'Enemy Killed in Action 3'.''

@T33ngeDirtbg @SawyerMerritt Cars in the US as a holdout are going to look like those in Cuba or Nth Korea in comparison to what cars are available in the rest of the world in 10 yrs time. Except by that point in time cars in Cuba and Nth Korea will also be more advanced than what’s available in the US.

In no way surprising. This is what Elon has been saying for a decade. China won’t get a foothold in the USA tho. The federal government is not incentivized to gut our automotive manufacturing in favor of letting China run train here. Heck we don’t even import routers out of China anymore. Not gonna have a ton of their autos all of a sudden

Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸@FmrRepMTG

On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted. Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump’s madness. I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit. I’m not defending Iran but let’s be honest about all of this. The Strait is closed because the US and Israel started the unprovoked war against Iran based on the same nuclear lies they’ve been telling for decades, that any moment Iran would develop a nuclear weapon. You know who has nuclear weapons? Israel. They are more than capable of defending themselves without the US having to fight their wars, kill innocent people and children, and pay for it. Trump threatening to bomb power plants and bridges hurts the Iranian people, the very people Trump claimed he was freeing. On Easter, of all days, we as Christians should be reminded that the son of God died and rose from the grave so that we can be forgiven once and for all of our sins. Jesus commanded us to love one another and forgive one another. Even our enemies. Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians. Christians in the administration should be pursuing peace. Urging the President to make peace. Not escalating war that is hurting people. This NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024, I know, I was there more than most. This is not making America great again, this is evil.

I can't get over the fact that Dune is about an oppressed people fighting for their homeland, waging a jihad to bring down a hegemonic empire by threatening to cut off the flow of their most precious commodity after the empire had assassinated their religious leader's father.

Did YOU want to watch CCTV's AI Martial Arts cartoon about the Straits of Hormuz crisis? Complete with fighting Persian Cats? Well I subtitled it for you so you can enjoy it in all its trope-laden glory! Remember kids, the mountains will stay standing while the green water flows, and the true art of war is not figuring out how to fight, but how to stop!🥷😼🦅

Chinese state media made an AI-generated cartoon about the US-Iran conflict. Extremely well done!
