These jpgs have a long and deep history of connectedness with the main OP, please do not question or there will be hurt feelings.

It is a foggy winter day. The air tastes of burning. On the crossroads people are squatting and burning paper iphone 7 rosegolds to the dead. Bungbungche's line the streets waiting for passengers. A stray dog begs. I go inside the agricultural bank. It is hot inside. People still have their winter coats on in the 30c heat. Everyone but the staff is sweating. Drip, drip, drip. A grandmother is leaning on a mop by a brown bucket. Everyone is sniffling, blowing their noses and hacking onto the floor. I get a ticket and wait. Drip. There are ten counters and three bank tellers. A child starts screaming, then the parents let him go. Off he runs doing laps of the chairs slapping their backs. Drip. Slap. A phone rings next to me. Wei? Wei? Wei? A middle aged woman starts screaming at the bank tellers 'Why is this taking so long? I have important things to do. Why cant you go faster? I need to go to a meeting'. The bank tellers say the sorrys then ignore her. Drip. Slap. Wei? The woman storms off saying she'll have them all beaten up and pulls the fire alarm. Drip. Slap. Wei? Alarm. The tellers start telling people to get out, the banks closed, they need to restart the system. Everyone starts yelling. I walk out and put on my mask. No banking for me today.

Straight from my fiancée's grandparents' breakfast table in Acheng, Northeast China:




It's apparently "sausage made from black eggs". She says it's terrible and tastes like lead. I'm assuming it's a cousin of the terrifying century egg, one of the few Chinese dishes I can't stand.

So just got some terrible loving news from my inlaws in China (been back for 2 weeks now).

About two years ago my mother in law got a German Shepherd mix puppy which she raised it for about 4 months. It was really cute and super friendly. Most people in the town knew it as she would take it on walks and it never barked at anyone and always wanted to lick people and play. She realized that she didn't have the time or space to take care of a full grown dog and gave it to a guy who was a real dog lover and wanted a guard dog. He soon realized that it was the most useless guard dog because it unconditionally loved everyone that approached, but he was a dog lover and didn't care.

Just a few minutes ago my wife was talked to her parents on Skype and found out that it's dead.

So the family comes home from the market (they were gone for about two hours) and open the gate to their yard and the dog is lying dead on the ground. There is frothy blood everywhere and it's obvious that it has been poisoned because it was bleeding from its mouth, nose ears and eyes. The owner is pretty sure that his neigbhour killed his dog because his neighbour really, really hates him (no why). My mother in law gave the dog to this guy because he loves dogs and is a really nice guy who nobody should dislike.

The owner was heartbroken and I guess he cried over the dog's body for a long time. Later he was talking with my mother in law and said that he will never own another dog again because he would not wish for it to happen to that dog as well, and never wants to feel that kind of senseless loss again.

Sorry I meant to say I hope that the police use maximum force and kill or maim a bunch of innocent people, thus paving a way for a proletarian uprising and socialist utopia
