I really liked his Idols of Nations; pretty niche indeed, but also very interesting and it touches a subject I know next to nothing about. I guess I should read his other works since he has many others on similar subjects. Which ones would you most recommend off the top of your head?

At this point I don’t know why I am even surprised.

I think I remember seeing BadEmpanada jokingly saying that there should be a “we will dance again” festival on 7 October and explaining it for a few minutes. This poster seems too similar to a shitpost related to this, this can’t be genuine right?

The other day I found a book titled Our Enver at home. It’s not the first time I find pro-Enver Hoxha literature which was bought by my monarchist family (very cringe, I know; thankfully it’s only the older generations that are still like that) but it’s pretty funny that I keep finding them.

Here’s a picture of Enver Hoxha kissing flags:

I finally got a notice today that my state scholarship application was accepted (this is normally supposed to happen before the summer holidays, but due to circumstances I could only apply very late), so I’ll finally have a scholarship this year! I especially need it this year too, seeing as I have my student exchange to Taiwan next semester. This latter half of the year is starting pretty great, if you count July as part of the first half which doesn’t make sense but let’s just roll with it.

Exactly, I read 1984 when I was still kind of a lib and I still thought “hey, this just sounds like the US!” lol

Good cop: sad cop

Thanks! Of course, I am so unbelievably happy about this, I made the comment about it being the most liberal part of China as a bit of a joke (funnily enough I’ll even be in one of the most liberal cities of the province). In fact, I have been anticipating this for the two first years of my time in my uni!

I’ve finally gotten the email I’ve been waiting for: my uni has finished selections for student exchanges with partner unis abroad next semester. Our uni has no partners in AES-controlled territories, but has a few in Taiwan Province, so I applied to go there, so I could practise my Mandarin and also finally go outside of the continent for the first time of my life. And I got selected!!! So by February I should be on Chinese soil!!! (though on the most liberal part of it)

I did not fall off my horse, please don’t put it in the history books that I feel off my horse or that I requested for this fact to be removed
