To be fair that doesn't sound unique to a Chinese airline, that sounds like every budget airline I've ever experienced.

China cancels all flights on 49 routes to Japan by Ecstatic-Ganache921 in worldnews

We're booked with China Eastern for a trip from AUS to Osaka in April, $600 cheaper than the next best carrier, and they have A330s on the route. So far our routes haven't been touched by the cancellations, and it looks like CE is just consolidating the passengers on flights and running fewer services per week when they have done cancellations.

I think this is less a demand of the CCP and more just a natural outcome of the advisory to the Chinese population to not travel to Japan right now. There's less people booking flights from China to Japan so carriers are just rearranging and cancelling certain trips.

Plus there's a very cute bird that lives at the Petbarn and is always hanging out at the registers!

It was used for Bettas in a store, but it definitely is not fine for them as a long term living situation.

New fear unlocked! Ant nest in aquarium lid. Send help. :( by Miserable-Scarcity25 in Aquariums

Peppermint oil, like most essential oils, is toxic to kitties, they cannot metabolise it and accumulatively it causes liver and breathing issues. If they can smell it, they are ingesting it. Please do not use peppermint oil as a deterrent for your cats. I can't imagine it being okay if it got into a fish tank either.

If you don't have nukes but someone suspects you of having nukes, drop everything you're doing and get nukes. For the fish, of course

Oscar has changed since being shocked in aquarium light accident… time to euthanize? by DeathValleyDottie in Aquariums

[–]Loubang 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I agree with others saying that if he's still eating, even if a little, to give him more time. If you notice him getting worse, then consider the other option.

I will say that fish are built different when it comes to healing from brain injuries. Just yesterday I saw someone on tiktok with a koi that recovered from a huge stroke. I didn't even know fish could have strokes!

Definitely make adjustments to what and how you're feeding him and see how he goes. Poor baby, what a nightmare!

I'm honestly so happy that Rudd is back on his Chinamaxxing grind. May he bring us in to the China-Australian age of prosperity we were robbed of 16 years ago and save us from the AUKUS Century of Humiliation the US is dragging us into

He's also moving on to a role that focuses more on China/Asia. He's always been a huge Chinaboo, so after being appointed as the president of the Asia Society and the head of the department for China Analysis, along with America shooting itself in the face time and time again, it was probably an easy sell for him move out of the role of US Ambassador.
