honestly I did not expect that the US tiktok ban would result in an actual chinese social network becoming the number one app in both the US and UK app stores along with an incredible cross-pollination of memes and general cultural exchange

alright so two of the first things this app showed me were a girl firing an RPG and a girl with incredible muscles posing on a motorbike

lmao chinese netizens are savage, just tearing into the american userbase like ‘I heard recently that in america, you have to pay a significant amount of your income for healthcare that does not help you?’

I found a sainsbury's fan page on 小红书 and in the comments people who went to university in the UK are arguing about british supermarkets and meal deals
this app could actually replace /r/casualuk, I'm so proud

‘all information is valuable to the right buyer’ I mutter to myself as I trade knowledge of british culture for good hot pot places in london and various recipes/cooking tips in a group chat

I ask the chat why there is so much love for the UK and hate for the US from china. I get back ‘UK plays casual racism, USA plays ranked competitive racism’,

@sam @scarlet uh strictly no, the Chinese version of TikTok (ie literally the same app but for people in China) is Duoyin, this is a different Chinese social media app that everyone is flocking to for whatever reason

@q I honestly haven't had a meal deal in years
I would easily sell out my meal deal opinions in exchange for the Zwiebelleberkäse the butcher near my in-laws does fried in a roll for lunch

@scarlet @q meal deals would be considerably improved if Paulaner Spezi was among the drink options.

@erincandescent @scarlet my world for REWE meal deal

@q @erincandescent ngl, REWE's sandwiches have been pretty grim and lacking every time I've tried them
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from scarlet@chaos.social
@scarlet @erincandescent oh I never went for the sandwiches
never really understood the appeal of a sandwich really, not enough seaweed (extremely Welsh statement I know)
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from q@glauca.space
@scarlet @erincandescent for those lacking context: everyone in wales lives on the coast, we tend to incorporate seaweed into a lot of food
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from q@glauca.space
@q @scarlet @erincandescent I feel like I live in a different Wales to you… the first time I saw seaweed routinely integrated into food was in Japan (in particular onigiri in every convenience store). Agree on not seeing the appeal of supermarket sandwiches though, by the time they have enough filling to be interesting, the combinatorics means they have something I don’t want to eat in. So I either get plain cheese or plain ham, or go for a non-meal deal option.
