classic beijing bikinis. yup most people don't know but much of china has extremely poo poo weather. like beijing is extremely cold during winter and extremely hot and humid during summer. there's about 4 weeks of good weather a year.

I don't know anything about laos, but isn't intentional inflation a pretty common tactic for dealing with sovereign debt you can't afford?

this works if you're inflating your way out of debt owed in your currency but it's extremely likely that laos owes its external debt in USD or euro or yuan, in which case inflation doesn't help.

So Putin said he is going to attend G20 summit in Nov in Indonesia.

I am not sure if Biden will go if he lose big in the midterm election. Lets hope He will go and Zelenskyy is invited for maximize drama.

I made this chart a few days ago and decided to add the G7 and Brics badges. I thought Japan and Korea were invited to join G7 but no, they were just invited speak in 1 meeting. Brics on the other hand, is adding Iran and Argentina for real soon. The other 3 countries are in later batch I guess.

You guys want to come up with a new name for Brics? I like GS7 (Global South) but China and Russia are not realllly GS. Maybe just call Growing 7 to troll.



As you can see in the chart, there is almost no space for playing both sides, you are either on team a or team b.

ancient chinese masculinity was more toward the wrestler-type body ("the general's stomach") than the ancient greek and roman type, so this is what peak performance looks like and symbolizes their power and ability to rule, while also being able to forgive failure from others while tolerating and laughing away criticism

yea China's been on the dadbod poo poo since the dawn of the empire. If you were a kinda portly but still mostly fit dude you had a bod that was both 'I've got money and power to just sit around and eat my many foods' and 'but also I'm not a complete lazy slob you can just roll out the door and take my poo poo'.

real answer: because of a blend of western beauty standards pushing in for a good few generations and general classism like you see anywhere else where being fat is a moral/discipline failing only someone stupid and poor would do.

funny answer: jealous of Chinese dadbod chad emperors.

yeah the dadbod dude has a big gently caress-off bladed weapon in that one illustration so he can still wreck you. combine that with an even / balanced facial expression and you're all set. the western standard is more like chiseled abs and arnold schwarzenegger in the 80s

Much less normal to be fat over there :shrug:

in the era of melee weapons being strongfat was a pretty big advantage over someone smaller, you could just overpower them and put them on or in the ground pretty easily. and a more restricted diet + lack of nutrition/exercise knowledge made it much harder to get strong without also getting fat. you were either large and powerful or thin and sickly, the two genders

This also happens in China. Most people are still relatively skinny compared to the west and everyone loves to rip on overweight people, but in a nice way.
