• Yes, EVERYTHING traces back to the Three Kingdoms 三國演義/三國志
• 關羽 was such a hottie his face turned red & he was called «He of the Beautiful Beard.» & was 9’.
• Qing China was the best China.
• my 麻婆豆腐 kicks arse.

One’s value as a human being is not measured by their capital. That much is very clear. If there were a category of undeserving fucks, all billionaires would constitute the vast majority of that cohort. Not that «undeserving fucks» is a category we should use. 🙄
