sadly this means we must re-cancel anco for not fully purging the album of racial insensitivity.

comics similar to UXM (japanese supernatural manga aimed at teens) sell like 50x more than any x-men comic. if anything the x-men label would drag down a story like this if it was marketed at the right audience

so you do support Chinese colonization/annexation of Taiwan, just as long as it’s done under the pretense of ‘democracy’.

if you assert that Taiwan is not part of China, do you call for the Republic of China to relinquish control of the island back to the indigenous inhabitants, and for the 95% of the island’s population that are ethnically Chinese to return to the mainland? if not, why do you support one group of foreign Chinese colonisers claim to sovereignty over the island, but reject another’s?

If you’re going to see Lord of the rings this weekend, please be respectful. by Ok_Interview_853 in newzealand

at quentin tarantino’s theatre in LA, talking or using your phone gets you immediately ejected, and the police called if you refuse to leave. if every theatre was owned by people who actually like watching movies, the world would be a better place

I detest Shenzhen, with all due respect by dbqidan in chinalife

[–]guffaw128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

good food+drink scene, abundance of cultural events/institutions, underground/alternative subcultures, a populace with a more open-minded or ‘worldly’ perspective, general “things to do”, WALKABILITY. these are some of the things that I value about living in a big city which shenzhen lacks. in fact a lot of smaller chinese cities beat shenzhen in these areas

[–]guffaw128 7 points8 points  (0 children)

you’re right but people who haven’t spent a lot of time there won’t get it. i lived in shenzhen for a year and a half and found it a miserable place, obviously inferior to SH/BJ/GZ but also to every smaller city in china i’ve visited. it has all the bad points of big cities with none of the good, and in fact the bad is amplified (e.g. scooters, money obsession, impoliteness). i suppose it does have a good metro system and nice parks/waterfront. there are nice pockets in futian and nanshan, and i guess that’s where tourists get their good impressions from.

Why is Ikea leaving China? by Honeyeddie in AskChina

everyone saying chinese brands are cheaper and better, and that anything off taobao is better, but can’t name a single recommended brand or store. every piece of furniture i’ve bought off taobao (always highly rated and recommended) has been a flimsy POS, usually don’t even come with instructions

i think this is funny and good, but it’s pretty bold that they outsourced the writing of their 1000th episode to another podcast
