It was officially made illegal in 2021, but yes many Chinese people still do it especially in tech like Horse said above.

You are right in the aspect that TCM is heavily focused on the prevention aspect moreso than the direct treatment of symptoms. Which is why many TCM practitioners will literally prescribe 养生, take care of your health, which is obvious and I think gives many people bad experiences. TCM is built upon natural remedies so I’m sure it’s limited in that regard, and also doesn’t have a surgical aspect.

What I will say though as someone who believes in TCM, not everything you hear people say is TCM is TCM, even in certain “clinics”. TCM is based on 3 foundational books 黄帝内经，难经，伤寒杂病论。They lay out foundational philosophy (which is bullshit, much of it is old hypotheses of how disease comes about, miasma type of thing) and treatment of illness comes from. Many hacks will use the title of TCM to sell weird alternative shit, so be careful and if you do want to try TCM make sure they are certified from a university, because in many countries you can get a bachelor’s in TCM, and that’s about the only way you can trust the practitioner.

Mahallah, this stuff really gives me hope

I think most of the hatred for black people is because of western media, like movies only really having black people shown as gang members, militants and other such things. Also as with everywhere else on Earth the chuds are those poor, to not so well off males. And since China is so big and has a disproportionately male population in the previously mentioned economic situation it’s gonna be pretty noticeable.

Especially reddit, get off there. Absolutely reactionary pedo infested place. And everyone else are libs (don’t know which is worse)

Hey I might be studying in Shanghai starting September too!

Knowing the west, they’ll start taking action there more than they already are, I hope the Burkinabe people are prepared. Long live Ibrahim Traore and the Burkinabe people.

Does it matter to the west though? The only reason they would show stuff is to draw support, which is definitely not happening, so there’s no point. So at this juncture if they were to take action they would probably rather their domestic populous is as uninformed as possible.

What do you think the turban is for? It’s to hide their circuits and electronics…

I feel the same, but like most things from music, clothing, architecture, etc. The West has been hegemonic in these spheres so they can sell more stuff to people who would otherwise not get it. That’ll change over time as western dominated capitalism and looking up to the west fades, we only need to wait.

No problem comrade 👍

I’m right there with you comrade

Yes I know… I mean more specifically

They’ll ride the hypersonic missiles and parachute into the illegal occupation zone.

Where’s this from? I would love to see the specs on this.

Absolutely

Cool as fuck, really want to see the effects of this on people’s health both mental and physical down the line. Although small right now, hopefully the change will really go national and result in a lot less of a rat race and equalised development especially in smaller towns and cities.

This stuff is the “What has America become!” stuff, it’s absolutely hilarious to me. It really goes to show how ignorant average Americans are, even so called “progressive” Americans.

Anybody have more reading on the PSUV? Know next nothing about it and Socialism in Venezuela. Thanks in advance.

If you have long hair and want it to have nice looking long hair you have to go to a hairdresser, not a barbershop and pay quite a bit more. Everytime I have gone to a barbershop they fuck me up or dont know what to do because they don’t know how to deal with long hair.

It also heavily depends on what your hair type is. I have about 2A hair and I based my cut off this guy: https://www.instagram.com/p/ChCjHYSuTdt/. If your hair is on the less wavy and flatter side you can ask me but otherwise I’m clueless.
