I’ve got a mug from a town I used to live in. It’s a rooster with the name “Shitty Larry” written across it. He was a local celeb. A rooster so badly behaved he had to be rehomed, and the people who adopted him created a whole lifestyle around dealing with his “antics”.

As I was leaving, Fucking Frank was also coming into the spotlight.

They’re assholes. But they taste good.

I’m sure most of them have never been to China.

I spent two weeks there and that was enough; I would never choose to live there. It’s a fairly safe place as a tourist or on a business trip, but there were dozens of red flags in that time as well.

Ironically, though, none of the red flags there had to do with Communism. More about censorship and unnecessary overt shows of military force around every corner. I saw more large arms there than driving through rural America, that’s for sure.
