Had a productive day with @unlearnecon.bsky.social researching the links between ecological economics and the capital to output ratio! We got something!

"‘I thought the gov’t was telling me to do it’: Hong Kong court rejects appeal from man jailed over 2019 mob attack" - HK Free Press

Well well well, who could have guessed that the government ordered an attack that famously had a disturbing lack of police intervention. Shame.

Lee Cheuk-yan in 1997: "The present HKSAR government is blatantly pro-business and anti-union... our situation has been pushed back to the days of the 1970s when the British Hong Kong government legislated for the suppression of democratic and many civil rights."

Campism, tankies, and authoritarian sympathy should never be tolerated.

Shit like this is why I can't stand tankies, their ignorance of history is appalling. The Mototov-Ribbentrop pact led to Poland being divided between Germany and the USSR. Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Lithuania, and Bessarabia (Romania) were also "given" to the USSR in this pact.

What pains me the most is when tankies defend the Chinese Communist Party, especially with Tiananmen Square... LIKE WHAT THE HECK GUYS TIANANMEN KILLED SO MANY STUDENTS WHO WERE PRO DEMOCRACY, THERE IS FOOTAGE WTF DO YOU MEAN IT NEVER HAPPENED?!

頂你個肺! (Fuck you)

Almost like ML's and Tankies are just fascists and bigots wearing a red coat of paint

Big flag. Loving my time in Vietnam. Much better than Hong Kong, anyway.

In Vietnam at the moment on holiday.

I've got so much dong. Millions of it.

I wish that Cantonese was easier to learn for immigrants. I try to learn little by little, but when I try to ask for help on identifying issues to my local friends, they can't explain which tone I am using and why it's wrong, and they often don't know 粵拼 (jyutping) to help. Very frustrating :(

Yesterday, I was at 元朗 (Yuen Long) with my friends of local background eating 點心 (Dim Sum), and I called one of them out for messing up table manners with chopsticks.

My ELO as a Hong Konger rose up so much even as a 鬼佬 (gweilo) surely...

Hong Kong landlords are a time.

My parents' landlord is attempting to charge my parents $200 a day for a parking spot, and charge for every hole left in the flat when we move out.

The kicker: there is virtually no one left in the apartment, and they are planning to tear it down anyway.

Scammers.

I have just finished my journey as a school student, and have achieved an excellent score of 42/45 for the International Baccaulerate.

As Talking Heads said:
"How did I get here?" &
"[Now I'm] on the ride to nowhere"

Life is so long and interesting

Imagine being such a breach of privacy that the EU has to ban the platform. Discusting
