The rare four-minute election-season clip that is actually worth watching until the end. 'Tommy' thought he had scored a big win by yelling "ABDUL!!" Just watch it from there.

Another absolute triumph by @chinarhyming.bsky.social. Fascinating insights into palace life, people and tumultuous events at the end of one epoch and dawn of several new ones. Quite a tragic tale, but gripping. Was also struck by the Gormenghast comparison. Thoroughly recommended. #BookSky #China

This piece argues that drained pools, ruined clubs, barricaded enclaves, gang warfare, and human remains recur in J.G. Ballard's fiction because they first appeared in Shanghai's "Badlands." By @chinarhyming.bsky.social in @chinabooksreview.com buff.ly/P2QborZ
