Construction sites all over the city are hastily removing the safety nets. Just shows you how rampant this corrupt behaviour has been - and how little oversight there is.

The news that’s been coming out of Tai Po the past couple days—including the foreign domestic workers among the dead, injured, and missing—has me thinking a lot today about a particular painting by HK artist Yeung Tong Lung.

never met an egg tart i wasn’t thankful for
This is less of a "turkey sucks" take as it is a "you can serve lots of things and don't even have to cook" personal opinion.

1) The turkey cooking process confuses and intimidates me
2) It's easy to go to my favorite places in Chinatown and get stuff for not much money, plus egg tarts for dessert.
My friends and I have gone five straight years of never serving turkey at Canadian Thanksgiving, American Thanksgiving, or Christmas. We served char siu, prime rib, lobster, lamb, roast duck, and even a grocery store rotisserie chicken. Lots of options. It is fine to start your own traditions.

"Matthew 25 makes it clear that whatever I do or withhold from the most vulnerable, I do or withhold from Jesus. Right now, it’s hard for me to imagine a scarier place to be detained, and that makes my discernment about how to respond easy."

Reporting their activities to the authorities who’d then come up with accusations has become a common strategy to harass indie bookshops pressure them into closing down. Indie bookshops have been so courageous, creative, & resilient in carving a space of #freedom. Solidarity with Book Punch
