About That 'Banging'

 US gov't today....banned romantic and sexual relationships....with Chinese citizens for government employees (while based in China).

I pondered over this.  They kinda meant....male-female....female-female....male-male, and male-trans.

Course, if they were Russian, Vietnamese, Mexican, Canadian,  or German....it's still OK.

Lawsuits?  Yeah, there's bound to be Biden-folks who are desperately banging some Chinese gal, and they don't want any supervision over their physical stuff by Trump.

This being started in Europe? Wouldn't shock me....if they advised the same thing here.

Netflix Series Review: Hot Spot (2025)

 This week, I finished up a 10 episode piece by Japanese TV....entitled 'Hot Spot'.

So....it's 50-percent drama, 50-percent comedy (as Japanese see it) and 50-percent SyFy.

It starts off....with one of the hotel male employees....admitting in some way....he's an alien (thus proving it).  

About 5 episodes into it.....you now have a time-traveler announce himself.  

An episode later, you have a super-natural woman with powers.

And by the end....they tie up the story....with a 2nd time traveler visiting.

Yeah....it's pretty crazy, but as stories go.....better than average.

If you can find it off  Netflix.....it's worth watching.

A chance of a 2nd series?  I'd say near zero.

Census Numbers That Don't Work

 For several months....folks have been looking at Russia, and saying the country population number (146-million projected) and saying it's simply not correct.

With folks who left, and who died....some suggest at a minimum....it's down to around 142-million (if the collection was accurate).

Then you have some folks  who suggest it's closer to 130-million...because of crappy collection.

But why stop there?

For several months....Chinese folks have been looking around and noting....a lot of people are simply not there.

The gov't number is 1.04-billion people.....but I've noted a PhD figure doing analysis of different major cities....saying that number is not right.  Adding to it....she suggests that over the past forty years....numbers were inflated (maybe 20-to-30 percent).  Then for the cherry on the cake.....she suggest a high number died from Covid (maybe 100-million).

Chinese who 'left' in the past three or four years?  If you look around the US....there's probably in the range of 100k Chinese who migrated.

If both countries were under-populated?  Well....it would beg questions.
