There are few categories, which per my experience you should never buy from noname Chinese brands: razors (they just do not shave), contact lenses (doubtful quality and health control) , cosmetics and make up (nobody has tested it safety), condoms (they are not reliable).

Temu is just second middleman after Aliexpress (Alibaba) btw Chinese manufacturer and consumer without any added value. You may cut Temu and buy the from first middleman -Aliexpress at least 25-30% cheaper. For example, on Temu: The same trimmer on Aliexpress:

Bunch of cosplayers. Real examples are Diana, Harry and Megan... Rest are just clowns.

When the opponent has nothing to say in response to the arguments presented, he begins to discuss the participant in the conversation.

Footage of Air India disaster shows ‘plane did lose power’, says expert https://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/air-india-crash-plane-lost-power-investigation-steve-schreiber-b1233127.html Mr Schreiber, best known as “Captain Steve” online, suspected there had been an exceptionally simple error when the co-pilot was asked to retract the landing gear with devastating consequences. However, a higher quality version of the original crash video leads Mr Schreiber, 63, to believe a dual engine failure led to the plane’s demise. Mr Schreiber, who has 26 years of flying experience - including 11 as a captain said on his YouTube channel that beneath the right wing, he could see a “protrusion on the belly of the aircraft”. Underneath, there is a “little grey dot” - evidence of the Ram Access Turbine deploying. He claimed: “Many aeroplanes have it. It is just behind the wing on the right side of the aeroplane, there is a little door that holds it in. It looks like a little Evinrude motor, it’s a little two bladed prop. The purpose is to provide electrical and hydraulic pressure for the aircraft on an extreme emergency.” Mr Schreiber said that on a 787 there are three things that will deploy the RAT automatically. A massive electrical failure, a massive hydraulic failure, or a dual engine failure. “Any one of those three things will cause that RAT to deploy.” The protrusion and the grey dot were visual evidence of the RAT deploying on the aircraft, Mr Schreiber alleged. He added: “That little grey dot is the RAT. The protrusion is the door that opened to allow the RAT to come down.” Summing up his analysis, Mr Schreiber concluded: “It is evidence for us it was dual engine failure, most likely. It could have been electrical issue, it could have been hydraulic issue, it could have been either one of that. But I think the fact the aeroplane is mushing out the sky gives the idea it was a dual engine failure.”

By the way, would you like to state your position on Israel's bombing of Iran? This is a good touchstone to distinguish a true democrat from one who calls himself a "Democrat".

No, my dear. You wrote about "democracy" and still oppose me when I point out that a "senator" should be treated like a "common criminal." And you don't even realize how ridiculous it is when you object. A "common criminal" and a U.S. Senator have equal rights, you understand? Why do you pretend to be a Democrat after that?

I am very glad that you did not find a single argument on the merits of my position.

Why? Are senators aristocrats and have immunity (in meaning of law)? If senator breaks law, he is "common criminal" then. Article I, Section 6, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution: "They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same..." Senators have no any immunity outside of Congress sessions.

Dear, you already 3 times made wrong conclusion about me, because they were based on your assumptions. It is forth.

Before you start thinking, it is always a good idea to evaluate whether you have any verified facts that you will base your theory on. Thoughts that are not based on facts are called "daydreams," "delusions," "speculations", "conjectures"... Is is verified fact? (No, it is delusion ) For to help you I will repeat fact, which I posted here many time since 2010: I'm not Russian, but living in Russia for many decades. Is it verified fact? (No, it is conjecture, anyone may use search forum function and easy find my opinion, something like "I don't like Putin, he is formerly KGB spy") Could you please quote my words as a proof of your speculations "against immigration" ?

Here is something wrong in the logic: if they are illegal immigrants, then they can't be "American citizens".

Squatters broke into your house at night and settled in. And when you tried to throw them out, they started smashing your house and burning cars in the garage. And while you're fighting them, the mayor of your town is telling on TV that everything is fine in the city. That's what's happening now.

Yes, wrongly. Jaguars - it is clearly visible by triangle in front. SUV Jaguar I‑Pace. Owner - Waymo company, part of Google.

It is forum. Right? For posting, right? It is section "Gay Africa", right? Posts are about sex in Tunisia, right? So you are objecting against posts about gay sex in Tunisia in "Gay Africa" section of gay forum for travelers. Right?

UPD: that Boeing crashed onto medical college. As per posts in twitters: "a lot of died students".

The Boeing 787-8 was heading to London with 242 people on board.

So, you still insist on your rights to dictate to members of GG how much posts and in which section of forum they should post?

These are worldwide known forum rules, dear. Esp. for you from ChatGPT

The forum has an owner and administrators. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall them inviting volunteers to patrol the forum and give out comments to users about what can and can't be posted and how many posts about a particular country are allowed. The forum has special functions to report inappropriate content - three dots in the upper right corner of each post. My personal opinion: reading comments about what a user thinks should and shouldn't be posted here is much more annoying than posts about Tunisia. 3 dots, guys, 3 dots.

Yeah. After such a visit to the manager, a line will appear in the customer service protocol: "- check whether the client is on the list of buyers who do not like the question about charity", and every unfortunate person who will apply for this job will pass an exam to recognize the faces that cannot be asked about charity.

You know what will happen to you professionally if you deviate from the medical protocol? Approximately the same will happen to them if they deviate from the customer service protocol. This question is not aimed at collecting funds, it is aimed at fixing in the minds of the buyer the image of the retail chain (store) as a socially responsible company. "Indirect positive communication, Installation of impressions". The scenario and sequence of actions, including verbal communications, are planned down to the smallest detail: what and in what order the cashier/seller does.

More interesting and within topic is question: When did the LA mayor lie - when she said the city was "calm" or when she announced a curfew?

Do you think I should support derailing thread?
