Oh I thought you meant socializing during transit, sorry. I forgot to consider in other places parks are not a maximum 15-minute walk away

Doesn't work. I live in Hong Kong, which has some of the world's most efficient public transport systems. People don't actually talk. They just look at their phones. A train cart can be full of people but no conversation.

(In Chinese)

Hi, I am the emperor of the Qin dynasty (207 BC). I am not actually dead because I found the medicine of immortality. I want to rebuild my empire but I currently don't have any money. Can you send me a few liang (兩, Chinese mass unit) of gold to get started? I must heavily reward you when my empire thrives again.

Edit: I typed this from memory. Apparently this is a reply to another ridiculous scam message of someone pretending to be the son of 蔣介石 (leader of Republic of China in 1928-1975).

You certainly would not regret buying a cubic meter of ~~tungsten~~ stainless steel

Wutip (蝴蝶) formed very close to Hong Kong, within 800km away. She isn't even classified as a "tropical cyclone" because she was not strong enough. She spent most of her lifetime as a "tropical depression".

The Chinese name literally means "butterfly", so that's why she has butterfly wings.

I call this "Typhoon Posting". Basically, I draw tropical cyclones as humans. This is the 1st typhoon this year, and my 3rd typhoon total.

I happened to be writing a program that interacts with the PeerTube livechat plugin on peertube.wtf. It was fine until suddenly a reload returned 404 from the chat room. I checked on the PeerTube instance and surely enough, the live chat was gone from my stream. The chatroom settings was also gone from the side bar.

Is this a temporary issue or an intended action?

This year I participated in making Zong's (粽, sticky rice inside bamboo leaves) and it was quite fun. So here's Summatia holding one she made.
