All Corgis Are (good) Boys

That's simply not true.

Some are good girls.

That’s some adorable little animal abuse right there

This is the first time I recall seeing a corgi with it's natural tail, and now I wish that all future corgis can keep their tails.

Okay you got me. I finally gave SCMP a click. But it was worth it!

SCMP is basically Hong Kong's WSJ

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Well, I don't often give the WSJ clicks either, but wouldn't its equivalent be the HKET?

SCMP has gone a bit weird since it was bought by Alibaba.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

SCMP is widely recognized as HK's newspaper of record.

WSJ is also owned by Newscorp, so I believe it's a fair comparison even though Alibaba now owns SCMP.

Searching HKET on Wikipedia leads me to a page with a "Conservatism in China" sidebar.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

HKET is HK's best selling financial newspaper. Might be an Overton window issue but to me the WSJ is also conservative.

That said yeah I'm not disagreeing with you that SCMP is HK's main paper. But I happen to avoid it.

That's not a police dog. That's just some common bitch.
