What an unfortunate coincidence that the profile chosen for the picture didn’t quite match the actual boat.

If the picture doesn’t work you have it in an article here: https://barbados.loopnews.com/content/china-donates-vessel-barbados-coast-guard

I’d say it looks a bit less threatening in real life.



Pathetic. I will not be satisfied until barbados has a destroyer.

Rich "Kayanka" Lowtax put up on a post on his social media site Somethingawful.com titled "Goon Project: Let's Kill The American President" but took it down mere hours later. Sources familiar with the matter say he was visited by the "F.B.I." - Americans secret police force with a consistent history of murdering and defaming social and civil rights leadership. US Citizens are now asking for proof of life for Lowtax but so far non is forthcoming. It seems the US government has disappeared another of its detractors.

Domestically, the bill would establish an anti-China bureaucratic apparatus tasked with hunting down “undue” Chinese influence in the United States, which critics warn would exacerbate the racial profiling of Chinese Americans and Chinese nationals living in the US and inflame anti-Asian racism. A provision in the Innovation and Competition Act would enact a policy “to enable the people of the United States, including the private sector, civil society, universities and other academic institutions, State and local legislators, and other relevant actors to identify and remain vigilant to the risks posed by undue influence” of the Communist Party of China in the US and to “implement measures to mitigate the risks.” It allocates $300 million a year for 2022 to 2026 to create a “Countering Chinese Influence Fund,” and would also mandate a comptroller report on the activities of US Sister City participants who partner with countries like China. (There are over 100 US sister cities shared with China.)

What characters are doing that for you? I havent seen any that do it for me, but I got a whole bunch of extra unicode fonts installed cuz hexchat was showing boxes for Chinese characters without them. So maybe it's a font thing.
