The student coup story is really long and I'm typing it in dribs and drabs, but expect it in a few hours.

 EDIT: Whoops. Nvm

I have all kinds of stories of crushes but none of them are that interesting. I did receive a text from a student asking if I would sleep with her and another student tried to kiss me after I helped her prepare for an interview. She also invited me to a private KTV which I declined.

What is a KTV?

My guess is that there aren't significant contingencies in place for that sort of thing.

Outside the United States, people are somewhat more capable of rationally evaluating the likelihood of that sort of thing happening, and aren't quite so caught up in wringing their hands and making elaborate just-in-case preparations so they can be seen to Do Something About It.

Yeah, you're probably ri...

The knife attacks caused massive nationwide freakouts. At our school there are fences and gates and dozens of guards manning the perimeter (napping) at all times. The guards are dressed like fake military and wear armor, with a few literally dressed up like SEALs or something and full armor. The guards have riot shields and these big fork things that I guess you're supposed to be able to contain someone with, not sure how they work. China does freakout security theater nonsense way worse than the US.

The school has gone on lockdown a couple of times but not for knives. The last one was after two middle schoolers had a fight. One kid beat the other one, and the dad of the kid who lost the fight got local mafia goons to show up and wait in vans with sledgehammers outside every gate to beat the unholy gently caress out of the fight winner kid if he showed his face.


LOL
