    You can stop blaming the Chinese for the Covid-19 outbreak. After months of study, including tracing the DNA back to its source, it has been determined that the virus started with these guys. They should have left it alone but didn't. Let that be a warning.

    Governor Charlie Baker, Pocahontas and Team Trump Treason covered up the fact that it originated in the US.

    Unfortunately debating with people that think pop tarts are even food is not worthy of thought. I will continue to promote we over me, though. Please stop blaming,  we need to use this opportunity to make the world better than it has been.  The environment and how we treat the planet are of utmost importance and continuing our current policies will,  eventually,  kill us all.
    One way of making the world better than it has been is by being kinder to one another, but it seems perhaps we differ on that as well.

    Take care.

    Wow. I’m not exactly a huge fan, but certainly bought a few of their albums back in the roaring alt rock 90s. This brings it home. He is not old. And did not make it. So sad.

    I wonder how cell phone plans work in China.  If they have a high percentage of prepaid, burner style usage, 20 million fewer users in an economic downturn doesn't sound outrageous.  I just did the math, and (assuming I did the math right, and that's one big ass) that's .0125% of the 1.6 billion cell phone users in China.  Even without a "high" % of prepaid users that doesn't sound crazy.

    I wonder how you text in Mandarin. 

    Same way you text in any other language. 
    But don’t they have hundreds of character? I’ve wondered the same.
    Thousands, actually.  As many as 50,000!  I think normal life uses 3-5k.
    To type, they use a system called pinyin, where they spell the words out on a keyboard in an alphabet like ours, and the computer or phone converts it to the appropriate character.
    That’s interesting. So why don’t they just use pinyin every day?

    McG,
    Maybe you should switch to Sangria? lol. I don't know how you made it through not hugging your cutie pie after missing his bday, so never mind the Sangria! Have another iced wine 4 me! My kid is playing UNO with her bff on screen time. 

    Matsi, I'm glad you made it through the medical trauma you suffered. Second chances sure make us grateful people, hey!

    There is a few different ways to input like bopomofo and wubi.  There isn't a standard.  Pinyin is defacto, but I find it difficult when using it to translate.  

    For native readers of both Chinese characters and English alphabet, most (in my anecdotal world) prefer Chinese.  It is very fast and efficient.   They are also superfast at typing.

    Why? One of two people in the Team Trump Treason Administration that we should listen to and maybe respect for their knowledge and public service is being threatened with death for daring to contradict Herr Leader. Guess those Berniebrosises should settle down?

    Welcome to the “new” normal where reason and civil liberties are out the window. Welcome to the Collective.

    An infectious disease expert who can help us out of this mess is receiving death threats. Both sides are the same. And my post is “bullshit?”
