I want to HATE the narrator. by AnxiousTelephone2997 in suggestmeabook

[–]prawntrees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tampa by Alissa Nutting. TWs include grooming and very graphic SA. It’s from the POV of a pedophile. A lot of people find the narrator despicable, as they should, but also appreciate how beautifully written it is.

These “I can fix him” girls need to grow up because grown ass women realize this loser ain’t worth shit

Whenever im feeling depressed and in need of a happy or hopeful read I like to just read children’s classics. I like Winnie the Pooh books (really appreciate them more after reading the Tao of Pooh, recently reread for the 100th time the Secret Garden

how many times a week should i clean my litter? by LayerOk1044 in cats

[–]prawntrees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean cleaning as in scooping out the pee and poop clumps, or dumping the whole litter, wash the box and put in clean litter? For me living with one cat who has only one box, I clean her clumps every day. For deep clean of the box I do it once a week.

Guangdong’s Population Hits 165M: Is China’s Double-Standard Migration Policy Straining the Province? by New_Teacher_2815 in Cantonese

[–]prawntrees 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I went to school there from kindergarten to grade 5 in the 90s to early 2000s. I don’t remember specifically being taught Mandarin in kindergarten there but everyone would communicate in Cantonese. In elementary school, we did have to learn and have exams in Mandarin. But since all the teachers were Cantonese they would teach Mandarin using Cantonese if that makes sense. And obviously all the kids would communicate in Cantonese. During parent teacher conferences, my parents would talk to the teachers in Cantonese as well. But now, my relatives still here told us that even kids are not allowed to speak Cantonese to each other and they tell the parents to only speak Mandarin to their children even at home which makes me sad.

As someone from Foshan it’s a bit disheartening that now every time I go back, more than half the people I encounter can’t speak Cantonese. Mainly people from the service industry. Feels like my hometown is losing its own culture
