Larry the cat has been spotted chasing off a fox from Downing Street 🐱🦊 Today's top stories: trib.al/Rx0iR33

Beijing has a history of delaying badly-needed *reversal* of its policy stance (family planning, retirement age, rural land entering the market, Hukou, et al), due to largely structural reasons until it's almost too late. I don't see why that won't be the case in COVID control.

A statement from the BBC on what happened to me in Shanghai last night while doing my job. I understand at least one local national was arrested after trying to stop the police from beating me. Thanks very much for the kind words and messages of concern.

看中国放开后这几天的各种乱象，没感觉你国政府「治大国如烹小鲜」，炸厨房还差不多

或许每个中国人的最终归宿都是且只能是胡锡进——在漫长的人生波折中逐渐掌握一种不断说服自己的能力。 并学会用这种能力自保和祈祷。

老钟人小时候读书读多了，对人对事特别认真，别人脱口秀随便讲两个段子，老钟人直接当圣经反复温习好几年。拍个电影一个半小时，解说阅读理解能做八个小时。杯子为什么放左手边可以做一期节目，导演说别几把解读了这其实就是美工摆的。 观众反过来安慰导演，说没事我们懂，这事不能说

Brick Lane这事，我觉得绝对算得上行为艺术，艺术价值不低于被覆盖掉那些涂鸦。 爱国墙变成辱国墙，应该是行为艺术家能料想到的结果。要不是因为知道这批人是粉红，我会认为这就是他们要的结果。 当然，最后真粉红开创辱国墙的结果，让这个行为艺术又上升了一个层次。

The sound and smile.. 😊

CCP Apologist, Victor Gao, insists there’s free speech in China, so I asked him for a demonstration— to criticise Xi. He couldn’t do it, couldn’t even admit he looks like a well-known bear🙃

刚才和一个年轻人聊天，她说她恨日本人，也不知道最近发生了什么。 我给她发了新京报的报道。她说死的好。 我深呼吸了一下，和她说我也有孩子。如果我的孩子上学路上被杀，别人说死的好，我不知道我会是什么心情。

当对方的言行愚蠢的恰到好处以至于你不能确定他是在认真还是反串.jpg
