No auto-mods here. “This is a fertile land, we will thrive here and we will call it…this land”
Happy cake day, fellow cider enjoyer!
That sounds delightful!
Thank you.
It won’t matter if you do, unless you’re a Party member. Example: the completion of the Three Gorges Dam was accompanied by forcing upwards of 30 million people to move. No compensation or new housing provided…just move somewhere else or you’ll drown. Fascinating book based on his long term reporting (I think New York Times IIRC), “River Town” by Peter Hessler. He was there, he lived it.
Happy Cake Day!
Too much emotion in their writing. Personal attacks. Doubling down in the reply. Support for the Chinese Communist Party.
Ok, thank you for the wikipedia links. What’s your beef with them, anyways? There are lots of people in the world who share in one or more of Falun Gong’s beliefs. What makes “this terrible cult” special? Why, in your opinion, have many members been imprisoned, physically beaten and politically silenced by the Chinese Communist Party?
You’re just as sus as anybody else, throw up some citations about your claims.
Plus some bay or gulf, relatively quiet, very close by the site helps. It’s too bad the Chinese don’t have any of those.
That is cool and I love that there is an exchange starting, that is rad.
Same same. I tried one app in the very early days and it was just one more password. Our crude peasant huts are peaceful and we shall thrive here. Unless it rains idk
Thank you. I am a mobile browser peasant.
i can’t link it. That is how cool we are. [noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works]
The courage that inspired armies…to steal toilets.
The book in the “Little House on the Prairie” series- (the one where Laura gets married and has a baby) and their childless neighbors ask to buy their baby. Is that enough trauma by itself? No. Not quite. It’s the lack of empathy from Laura or her husband, they treat them so badly, like they’re dangerous.
But it doesn’t pay off for the stepsister at all. She’s just bleeding, the story is about the triumph of The Grind- Cinderella stuck to virtue, hard work, etc.
Thanks for the reminder.
But what if your bunk is on a marine vessel?
The smell of the white smoke from grass/brush fires, we had so many of those where I grew up.
