People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

Doesn't every culture on earth have some sort of bread product? I would guess that is because once you have it, it is addictive.

My understanding is that it's a borrowed food in east Asia, esp Japan and Korea. Japan uses the Portuguese word "pão", and Korean "bbang" is a derivative of that, and but Chinese bao seems to be different. I'm guessing a lot of eastern and south east Asian countries are similar.
