The Chinese restaurant we ate at, which serves exclusively halal food and has a huge Muslim customer base, was blasting the entirety of Sabrina Carpenter’s Short ‘n Sweet in honor of Christmas, and, honestly, this wild mix of influences is the main thing I love about this stupid country.

We regularly get questionable news coverage on foreign buyers, but today’s G&M piece stands out as particularly problematic. @lausterna.bsky.social and I push back. doodles.mountainmath.ca/posts/2024-1...
