I'm posting about Teochew & Vietnamese revolutionaries this week. I wasn't taught anything about the heroes & heroines from both of my cultural backgrounds because I grew up in Canada, with white colonial education. My mind was heavily colonized by that. I started the decolonization of my mind journey in the 90s & am going to be doing it for rest of my life because the colonial programming runs deep.
I want people to learn more about the brave #Chinese & #Vietnamese people who took many risks & sacrificed a lot for their peoples. I want people to learn that my peoples & our ancestors, from both my backgrounds, weren't uneducated savages & we didn't need to be controlled by colonizers or imperialists. Many of our ancestors & their comrades were strong revolutionaries, who were very intelligent, dignified & courageous.

#Chinese #sapphic #VisualNovel by a studio called Xso. You play as Selene; a university junior looking for an internship who almost gets hit by a car but is saved by the mysterious Phoenix before being informed that you must find your soulmate within one year to avoid death.
Cute art and story. Some minor English grammar issues. Everyone seems to have anglophone-friendly given names and Chinese family names?
Ok I will do an #introduction ! Hello I am a silly little guy (it/he)! I like #anarchism and #youthliberation and cool art. I'm #chinese, #disabled, and #trans . Mastodon is new and strange to me. Not the federation part I just never did understand twitter ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ and I'm having mac and cheese for lunch!
Could someone who speaks #Arabic, #Chinese, or #Basque help me update the https://jointhefediverse.net site? I'm trying to remove links to joinfirefish.org and want to make sure I do it right.
Any help would be very appreciated!

I finally released a major update to my Emacs package
that allow to search with toneless pinyin in Chinese
characters and in normal pinyin text.
It is \"isearch submode\".
You just press: C-s nu, and it will find for you 女 and nǚ.
By default it looks for both pinyin and Chinese characters,
but you can switch to pinyin with M-s p and to characters
with M-s h keys.
Code uses translation table (named Quail map) from Quail
minor mode (input multilingual text easily).
It is possible to adopt this code to many other
languages. ☆
I spent one month to code this (⚆i⚆) and I am going to use
it for the rest of my life. _/¯(⏿⏿)¯\_
Happy mooncake festival! It’s today I almost forgot but went past Kenzo’s Kitchen and they were baking! One is lotus seed and the other is red bean #food #Launceston #AsianMastodon #moonCake #Chinese
My European bachelor student: "my uni requires me to sign up 2 weeks before the semester, so annoying!" My #Chinese bachelor student: "Yeah, so I have to declare this week whether I will go abroad for the PhD, and my Chinese supervisor recommended no, so to not break my word and lose (figurative) social credit I can only do my PhD in China now and cannot apply abroad." #FreedomOfMovementForAll #china #AcademicChatter #Astrodon #fuckedup #politics #ThoseWhoDontMoveDontNoticeTheirChains

The tariffs on #Chinese #BYD #EV's are necessary b/c #China is engaging in "dumping"... the illegal practice of selling something for less that it costs to make it in order to drive the competition out of business.
#Mexico can survive that b/c they don't have their own Mexican Owned EV manufacturers.
