The Life of Brian<p>I told you about RedNote, right? It's been a fun experience, as I knew it would be. A guy just a bit younger than me sent me 42 photos of Mongolia, just to show me what it is like. When I told him that I'd read Wolf Totem, he was thrilled. Whatever your views are on the government in China, the people themselves are extremely friendly. But I've know that for the almost 20 years I've been using Chinese social media. </p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/china" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>china</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/rednote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rednote</span></a></p>

The Life of Brian<p>Some of you may find it interesting that the internal translator in RedNote will not translate a post or reply/comment that contains the words 'Tiananmen Square'.

The Life of Brian<p>Well, well. My post on RedNote about how China could take over from the U.S. on the world stage fell flat on its face. One like.

The Life of Brian<p>I've been using Chinese social media for years so I signed up for RedNote (Xiaohongshu). TikTok sucks but I'm loving RedNote. Some phony stuff but lots of real people, too. I just had a nice chat with a university student from Kunming. She's 20 and I guess she got bored studying for her thesis on pollen. I hope she can help me fix my login errors on QQ. </p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/china" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>china</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/rednote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rednote</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/lifeofbrian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lifeofbrian</span></a></p>
