yup, I’ll take “Things that didn’t happen” for $500, Alex.

Xiamen, a city with a population of more than 4 million people, is directly across the Strait from Taiwan.

While fucked up, at least Xi and Mao are nominally real (though their particular origin stories and revised histories are also just as made up as those of the religious bunch).

Even after growing up with the deeply entrenched racism of rural Georgia, I was shocked at the overt and outspoken racism of Boston and the area around it.

Considering how shitty flying economy is in general, it seems like a 2 drink minimum is need to even tolerate it.

I stopped looking at ABnB a few years ago. It stopped making financial and quality of life sense. The costs became nearly equal or greater than that of hotels I cross shopped.

The hassle though is what really killed it. The inconvenience of dealing with a host that was not on-site and often not available to deal with issues plus the long list of chores required and the potential penalties of not following them perfectly just made it not worth doing.

In the States we didn’t get the Transit until very recently. We had the Econoline Van. Give Neil Young’s Tonight’s The Night a listen.

Hope they put a bigger engine in it. The one our company had in China was way under powered.

Not available in Vietnam or I would be all over it.

Anywhere outside of the blocked areas would have been fine. I think my VPN was set to Japan when I watched it.

Neither has electrolytes.

thanks for that. not gonna let the littles get on roblox until they are older

Get out of Grateful Dead show on the last night in that town, hop in the car while still blazing face on 5 to 10 doses and drive hundreds of miles to the next venue. Night vision extreme!

Yes, that would be the one.

CNN hasn’t been liberal for a few years since they were bought by a far right loon.

The recent Daily Show with John Oliver episode really does a deep dive on just how completely nuts RFK Jr is.

Bullcrap. Can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. I knew the risks and I don’t blame anyone else for the time I did when I got busted. I agree the laws are wrong but it is delusional to blame anyone other than yourself when you knew what the risks and penalties were.

HiFi folks and coffee folks have active forums outside of reddit and discord.

sounds like a win-win

Nice outside the box thinking.
