I ate these Chengdu dumplings a few nights ago and can't stop thinking about them. Cost about 3 dollars. Shanghai's food scene is pretty amazing when you get away from the tourist traps.

Used to love books like these when I was a kid, generally just for the covers, but still.

When I wake up tomorrow morning I would like to not be embarrassed to be American, if only for a few hours.

Brain rot out in the wild: family of 5 sitting in a cafe, three kids each watching a different video on a different phone without earbuds, mom on a video call without earbuds, dad scrolling a feed on a phone and talking overall it all to no one in particular.
