Yeah! Something about people walking on a bridge. But with this pic¿? I was like naaaaahhh that’s BallShapedMan!

My homepage has been wigging out today and I saw a post by PugJesus on History porn but this was the thumbnail & I thought: “You can’t fool me, BallShapedMan!” Great job.

Yes

Welp! It’s where you belong 😆

slaps table Thank you. I was trying to figure out why it looked kinda familiar. I’m playing NG+ and gearing up for the DLC! (I know I’m late to the party but I’m super psyched!)

Still poison. But if you had a cut/open wound on your skin or in your mouth/digestive tract venom would still be effective.

I don’t need any more motivation to adopt dogs but these descriptions are fabulous. They’re even better if they get a pooch a forever home.

Doot for update

I’m a native English speaker & I also read it and was like “Who else is engaging in this madness?!” If I’ve learned anything: It seems if we’re reading and it doesn’t make sense we’ll assume the “they” is of the person; not that the writer has omitted anyone.

This is frickn hilarious

Have responded to OP above :)

Okay, hold onto your hats:

Fenby’s ‘History of Modern China’ is epic and magisterial but far too long for this (goes back to the mid-1800s), while McGregor’s ‘The Party’ is good for post-‘89 but doesn’t really touch the topics you’re interested in.

Richard Kraus’ books ‘Very Short Introduction’ series is apparently excellent.

Two I’ve not read but come recommended:

The Cultural Revolution: A People’s History, 1962–1976 – Frank Dikötter

Tombstone: The Great Chinese Famine, 1958-1962 — Yang Jisheng (not strictly what your internet stranger asked about, but the roots of the Cultural Revolution are surely to be found in Mao’s Great Leap Forward.)

Finally there is also a doco ‘China’s Cultural Revolution: The Full Story’ - on YT/NewPipe etc. - quite good!

I hope you find some answers to your queries!

Sweeeeeet

Maybe they’ll be more competitive by the 5.

Beautiful shots. Especially all of them. Each has a unique quality of effort of flight.

There’s an Insiders YouTube/whatever you use short doco on it. “How the oldest jobs survive” or whatever. Painstaking process. Pretty interesting. Kind of to the point of ridiculous - like Chinese paper making if you know what I mean.

Nailed it. Would hang in house 👍

Sit tight; I will ask my bro-in-law. He will, no doubt, have an answer. If not, he’ll at least have a reason why it doesn’t exist 😆 Recommendation incoming.

Right?! As if this hasn’t won an award. (If it’s a real photo)

Oh yeah, y’all know this is gonna be good
