Following up on this, I found out there's something called "unripe" or "raw" or "sheng" puerh. Normally puerh is allowed to ferment, which give it its characteristically funky flavor, but unripe puerh isn't fermented and is essentially sun-dried green tea. It has a much more pale liquid, and some people describe it as having a smokey flavor. Here's a link from a US distributor

https://taooftea.com/product/green-tuocha/

This seems to match up with what you had. It has the Tuo cha nest-shape, it's a puerh from Yunnan, but it also has green tea-ish flavor.

What a rabbit hole. I did not know the distinction between this tea and "normal" green tea. I just assumed because I don't get caffeinated the same way as with black tea (which now I know is actually red tea). So I'll have to try out a few kinds to see what tastes good. Your link helps, as does knowing what the tea is called.

Atopian, I don't know how to taobao, so this will have to remain a mystery. Thank you all the same, and peanut and other people, too.

- 2018 regdate that suddenly started posting in late 2019
- posts almost exclusively in the CSPAM Bernie and WuFlu threads (and also the thread titled "a spooky spectre is haunting cspam, the spectre of /r/guyovich" lmao),
- has the same sneering dismissal of anyone who doesn't minimize and parrot the official Chinese state media line on the pandemic

a real three-pipe problem here.

This post seems to be the one that did it though.

Admins should pull the IP logs and ban the dumbfuck for evading a permaban if that's the case, just as they would with any other account.

But they won't, they'll protect their own to the bitter end. If Aatrek was around today he'd have an obvious parachute and none of the mods would give a poo poo.

plague, cholera and yellow fever are all sections of the health check you gotta get before coming.

I think you can get the plague from squirrels in Colorado or something, the others I'm not exactly sure. Get them all together, take the health check, get rid of them. I think this is a fool proof plan I cant really see what could go wrong with it.
