Grand Fromage posted:Anything bad for the US is potentially good for China so they're fine with it. making GBS threads on China related to jobs and stuff is so common every election cycle and nothing ever happens that they don't pay attention to it anymore. He's a habitual liar who flip-flops whimsically, and has to contend with a congress that doesn't like him even though his party is in control. Let's see how this plays out before we call it.

My VyperVPN account had problems with its ever-slow and lovely service. They emailed my yahoo mail (which isn't blocked in China) and told me to click their links to check my account. LMAO, that poo poo is blocked in China. There is no other way to access their page without another VPN. I am really lucky I still had Zenmate installed in Chrome or else I would have been completely screwed tonight.

Haier posted:She's impromptu, and that's the word she uses and I don't know where she learned it. She's the very definition of it, giving little to no notice of showing up. I think she does it on purpose to see if I am alone or not. She'll say "I am really busy, I can't see you this week," and then a few hours later message me that she's on the train coming to my house without asking what I am doing or where I am. Then we stay up until 2am talking and then her alarm goes off at 7am and she complains she never sleeps enough here. I tell her to come on the weekends, but she keeps coming on her work days. She knew about every other woman I had and is really against the idea of FWB, but then is an FWB in every sense of it and always says "I am single, you are single, no big deal." We always joke about logic being poor in China but it works out sometimes. Aw. I'd watch that rom-com. I'm sure this whole situation sounds more appealing on paper than it is to you in real life. You sound pretty frustrated with it.

" this is guy is amazing, the purges of corrupt officials are cast in a negative light because ~guys he's only doing it to his political enemies~ god reading these loving articles is so tiring because its so america-centric it loving hurts "That is: an impediment rather than an asset in many of the economic and strategic projects the United States would like to advance." its not wrong, just so loving solipsistic "China’s universities will always be second-rate as long as they are limited to a China-only internet." Hhrrrmmm, yes good job there dude, figuring out the key problem with Chinese academia in one sentence “This is a sui generis system that no one is copying.” - except for several African countries I guess but who cares about them lol "Nearly everyone I spoke with agreed that China’s oversteps have generated ill will far greater than the goodwill fostered by its foreign aid and Confucius Institutes, which are supposed to teach Chinese language and promote Chinese culture around the world." Ahahahahaha. Man, who would have thought the white guy in the US would reach this conclusion talking to ~everyone he spoke to~ Latin America? Africa? Eastern-Europe? Basically don't exist. And then closes on a piece of political fan-fiction Thanks for that bro

5er posted:The Chinese leadership are probably paying attention to American news, and noting how Trump is ignorant and astonished with the scope of his new job, and easy to incite emotionally. Combine that with Trump's hilariously poor vocabulary (very very, very very, very very...) they're likely concluding he's a blowhard fuckwit that'll be easy to manipulate. So, they're stepping to the table with platitudes and good-will facades to see how far that'll get them. Not that you can take anything Trump says seriously, but the vibe I'm getting from him is that he would likely let China have more freedom in the South China Sea because of relaxed USN operations, but would probably hit them a little harder on the economic/trade front, which might be the better strategy as they seem to be re-enacting "Rome 117 AD", and starting to transition towards decline. Then again this is all based on things that Trump has stated, so take that with a massive block of salt. If I was one of Xi's diplomats, I would try and appeal to Trump with lucrative business deals (for him personally, not the US) that would spring into action after his term(s).

Kettle of fish, but why does a wreck that noone ever sees worth using a monument? If it was some place that people visit it'd make more sense. If a school bus full of children crashes an burns on the side of the road you don't turn the charred wreck into a monument.
