The Great Autismo! posted:is this racist? I can never keep up Nah that's what consulates do. Dealing with expatriates, etc. Houston being a hub is surprising but I also didn't realize it was such a big city.  that + the oil stuff makes sense now.

Houston is/was a large scale international transit hub because continental airlines is based out of there, as well as the oil/gas/petrochem industry hq of the western world

where'd you get this? when I looked for Chinese population in Seattle it came back at around 45,000 or so I didn't look for Chinese-Americans, maybe that is the difference? idk\ looking at this it definitely makes sense to have two in the pacific region, one or two mid-atlantic, one north central and one south central what was annoying was when we hired a guy from northern Florida, he had to do everything through the Houston embassy. we hired a guy from Kentucky and he had to do everything through DC or NYC - can't remember, but he couldn't go to Chicago for it. maybe all that's changed, this was like five or six years ago

alternatively, they could sneak up behind the U.S. ambassador and give him a surprise wedgie also, possibly implanting a thumb tack in the mango mussolini's seat during a bilateral meeting. youch! BrutalistMcDonalds has issued a correction as of 01:28 on Jul 23, 2020 |

Hillary 2020 posted:https://twitter.com/ian_urbina/status/1286037414117625857?s=20 Seems like China is breaking sanctions and continuing their previous agreements secretly quote:In 2004, China signed a multimillion-dollar fishing license agreement with North Korea that led to a drastic increase in the number of Chinese boats in North Korean waters. But international sanctions imposed in 2017 in response to North Korea's intercontinental ballistic missile launches and nuclear tests were meant to squeeze key sources of North Korean revenue. also it seems like the desperate fishing is a consequence of sanctions as well quote:In the wake of the U.N. sanctions and as foreign currency reserves have dwindled, the North Korean government has tried to bolster its fishing industry by turning soldiers into fishermen, dispatching these poorly trained seafarers onto notoriously turbulent waters. The sanctions have also intensified North Korea’s gasoline shortage. Japanese investigators say that some of the Korean fishing boats washing onto Japanese beaches suffered from engine failure or simply ran out of fuel. would be really cool if we got glossy stories like this about other impacts of sanctions, not just the ones that implicate China

I honestly don't know, this isn't my thing, I just wonder that whenever a proposed solution to something ends in "we're gonna dump this concoction down the drain." I don't know if printing paper is treated with environmentally friendly chemicals that are fine for the sewer system.

Also does it need human agitation to break up the pages? maybe the smoke barrel was a decoy and the soap barrels are running right now

also there was a minor international incident years back when some dumbass houston cop pursued a diplomat into the consulate and beat the poo poo out of him so they probably don't give a gently caress about the smoke

That seem to be way kinder "accusation" than the usual vaccine hacking accusations. In my dystopian alternate future, BLM and Falun Dafa would go on proxy war on the street for their masters.

GoutPatrol posted:gently caress off with the "I'm stalking you" bullshit. I thought you were threadbanned here too (as many other posters believed) and you posted "but tino was, not me "wink" and that also sounded loving dumb. I'm not even the one that reported you. You were banned because you kept coming in with takes that ended with "those fuckers deserved it" every drat time. Anyone who believes in 'threadbanning' is a total loving idiot. Full stop.
