  • I was watching some scenes from a kung fu movie. It's comforting that a lot of fancy goods from the days of fuedal China can be mass produced now, and doesn't necessarily have to be straining to make.

  • I'm happy you got a surgery you needed. Yeah you sound a little disabled enough to need aids for now, but thankfully it's not permanent.

    Btw if you haven't gotten a covid vax this year and you're still at the hospital, one of my last posts talks about how mentioning to your vaxxer that you have long covid could possibly get you two covid shots covered this year. (I'm in the US.) This way you don't feel so shitty if you happen to get covid in the future. Maybe you will altogether prevent catching it.

  • Yes, but mostly through being raised with generational trauma.

  • Hell look at how Chinese showing a sense of pride for what they've overcome gets called? Han supremacy by westerners.

    Why specically "Han?"

  • *raised cruel

    It's a big difference I think.

  • Maybe it's because I don't talk to many people, but I've never seen anyone hate on a black person for enjoying their blackness. Even with people that I know were racist, I saw that interacting with highly self loving black people would seem to put the racist people in a nice groove. But maybe it was mostly amicability, I'm not sure.

    Not saying that hate on black people's self-love doesn't happen. Now that you say it, I definitely believe it does. Just saying it's strange to me that this is a real thing. Having pride in your ethnicity is respectable.

  • Yes, it's in the US.

  • I haven't found things in Chinese, but I did find some CTGN-run podcasts in English.

  • For everyone with long covid, please tell the person giving you a vaccine that you have it. If you have insurance, telling them could possibly get you another shot covered later in the year.

    Someone who vaxxed me just told me I count as immunocomprimised because I have long covid. They said it means my system is too weak so I need to be vaxxed every 6 months. (6 months is how long my covid vaccine is said to last.)

    As a result, my insurance is covering 2 covid vaccines for me this year instead of just one. This is important because a single covid vaccine shot without insurance can cost over $200 in the US.

  • Do Native Americans prefer to be called just that, or "Indians?" I heard that "Indians" is wrong because that label was due to a mistake of Christopher Colombus thinking he made it to India, but I'm not sure because Native Americans have called themselves that. Is saying "Indians" for Native Americans outdated?

  • That's a good request. Spanish is interesting sounding, I wish I understood it.

    On other non-english culture channels, what podcasts and television programs are good for learning Chinese? Leftist ones would be nice for me too.

  • Do you mean N95 respirators?

  • If you are cohabiting with someone that doesn’t automatically mean you get all their illnesses. I’ve missed things my partner gets and we sleep next to each other.

    That's comforting to hear. Maybe I will try masking up more when they don't.

  • They actually care about masking, but sometimes they won't. I'll have to ask why.

    Edit: They say at the gym it interrupts workouts because it shifts around, and the heat and sweat irritates their shaved face. In stores, it's when they feel it's not too crowded, and they hold their breath while passing people.

  • Dunno what you mean by "Shinji"

  • it's bizarrely infantilising of innumerable peoples, as if white people are the only ones who ever looked at killing non human animals and went "idk about that". Not like there's thousands of years of recorded theological debate and shit from all around the world, with Europeans being somewhat late to the game here.

    Until reading this, I had a liberal take on culture and eating animal products. I felt I should not criticize eating meat in indigenous practices because they have meaning I don't know the depth of. But if many people of just about all cultures have been criticizing it yeah I can see how spiritual practices involving meat can and must shift because the world is dying. It's absolutely racist to claim people are helplessly stuck in meat eating ways and can't change because of their culture. It's more appropriate to say individual people are addicted to meat.

  • I think i want to cook red beans in it. Not kidney beans, but the red beans popular among Asian people. I'm unsure if they're called azuki beans? Is azuki a different bean than a same-looking red bean, or is there just one Asian red bean and it's azuki beans?

  • I want men to start making more meaningful art that's raw, emotional, and difficult; so difficult that it forces us to seek better perspective.

    I forgot to respond to this part. Yeah I want everyone to. I feel you might like the choreography in the music video Eusexua by FKA Twigs also Butoh dancing. (I saw a way better video on Butoh, maybe I'll find it later.) Butoh dancing originated in Japan. Many dancers are painted white as if coated in nuclear fallout. I would probably know more about it, but each dance I see is so satisfyingly raw to watch I don't go into deep dives about it. To me they're refreshing and difficult at once. Please do share if you've got art you reccomend.
