We’ve been here for about 3 months now, and we’re liking it a lot. We’re right off line 5 in an area with a lot of green spaces and some really good food all close by. We saw the pandas a little over a year ago when we came here as tourists for the first time, but we plan to go back again soon now that the weather is really cooling off.

Wait are you in Chengdu? I am also in Chengdu.

Who is this character? I see them everywhere here in China. For reference I am old and out of touch.

People are in cosplay all the time out here. I see it pretty much everywhere. We also had a Halloween event in our apartment complex put on by the complex folks.

I really only go there now to catch all the trailers in one place during big game shows.

I am here and today was dope! Tons of folks out and about and flags everywhere. Lots of pride. I’m glad I got to witness everything.

I’ve been playing a fair amount of Unciv lately.

Definitely do not go to Fremont Brewing. It’s co-owned by Sara Nelson who is the absolute worst of Seattle’s many, many fauxgressive NIMBYs. She won her whole campaign on villainizing homeless people, and she continues to terrorize them from office.

Wait is ‘folks’ not acceptable or is this commenter being hyperbolic? This has been in my vocabulary for my whole life.

My partner does TEFL-teaching which does require a degree of some kind. I work as a per-hour contractor for the company that I was a W-2 employee for back in the states. I’m losing that gig in a month though, because they don’t trust my network from China. I might have to go the TEFL route too.

I got downvoted like crazy for defending China on the NBA subreddit. Every sub over there is just trash now, but it’s tough to find niche content sites elsewhere.

It’s nearing dinner time here, but I’ll still say hi.

I just left. Moved to Vietnam almost two years ago. Moving to China next month.

I grew up in small-town Oklahoma so pretty much every person I ever crushed on back in the day falls into the ‘what was I thinking’ category.

Chinese on Duolingo. Moving there in a little over a month so trying to get a little head start.

Exactly. If libs were truly terrified of Project 2025 as some kind of real existential threat to democracyTM like it’s claimed to be, they would surely be doing more to prevent it than asking for campaign donations and a vote for genocide.

We should just rebrand it as Project 1776 since it’s basically what America has always been about anyway.

Almost 9pm for me now.

Can’t believe I doorknocked for this fucking imperialist.
