Irony would be, if all these people stuck in the mountains to protect them from the virus would get the virus from the bats in their neighbourhood caves.

Also couple of days ago someone came over asking to buy the pig. My brother-in-law said no.
When I go to morning pee, I don't yet drool at the sight of two squirrels that play in a tree by the house.
Also the spring will be here soon, and with it come the snakes and many insects. I hope they can clear hospitals before mushroom season.
Seriously though, it's fourth week without shower. I've been thinking of building a makeshift sauna.
"next week when 160 million of the work force are set to return"
Without spreading rumours, we are to register our kid for a Kunming kindergarten in March, but hopefully can do it remotely.
Yeah did, and was told that Kunming is doing it wrong because in Baoshan they come up with bigger figure, and assume (rightfully I think) that Kunming should be more expensive.
100k for 10 years comes to 30 RMB per day. Doable perhaps, but...
No results found.
Letter from the editor: Kunming community spirit in times of Corona
Posted by"support the website by making an account, asking questions in the forum, leaving reviews and using the classifieds section to find a job, sell your stuff or rent an apartment."
This (or rather what is not included in that list of to-dos) sums the criticism that I personally have toward the whole ordeal, and how GoKunming (out of no choice I understand) had to respond to it with rest of the nation.

Ask questions and increase revenue, but feel free to avoid discussing and, heaven forbid, debating anything.
Editorial: Kunming 2020 biological diversity conference should be based on Paris Agreement
Posted byWouldn't you say a new kind of virus adds to biodiversity though? Also in relation to biodiversity, I suppose there is some poetic justice in the virus killing humans.

Video: Zen and the art of patisserie with chef Igor Nataf
Posted byI'm not a big fan of croissants anyway, and donuts I have not found in either of the establishments you mentioned.
@Dolphin: "savouring the croissant helps to cultivate appreciation. ie appreciating simple things rather than always feeling discontent that you don't have enough"
Perhaps, but it equally helps to cultivate ignorance of all the labor that has been put into creating that experience for you. At least I would allow you to feel discontent on behalf all the people who don't have enough, whether they had part in creating the croissant or not.
I't shouldn't anymore be about what you have or don't have, but what the other 7.7 billion (minus 1) people have or don't have. That's where the musings of Buddha (as quoted above) go wrong in this day and age.

Posted byThere perhaps was a time, when embracing reality same way you would savour the croissant, could have been beneficial to achieving an enlightened state of mind.
But today, many would call such view on life quite the opposite of enlightened - it could be called ignorance or covering your eyes from all that is wrong. Perhaps that's suitable in Chinese context.
There, I connected the croissant to politics.
