@michaelturton Those 3 are basically splitting the KMT vote, almost equally in thirds, guaranteeing the next #Taiwanese president will be DPP VP. Ko is a very slight except, but still part of the same group, pulling votes from the KMT. #Taiwan#Elections2024
@foreignersinTW As long as it only protect us from the wind, not the rain. The last one filled the reservoirs in the South. The one coming tomorrow will top them off in the North. As someone who has been through drought water shutoffs in Taiwan, I'm happy.
@michaelturton When my kids were little, kids at the park (usually backed by grannies laughing hysterically) used to tell my kids that they looked stupid speaking Chinese. It might be my 2nd language, but it's their 1st.
@trickytaipei Heck, I still deal with scooters driving into 7-11s, up to the cashier, and buying a pack of cigs..or up onto the sidewalk, into a park, and up to a trash can...
@a_vanillatte@foreignersinTW I am having the same issue, but as an American with a disability. There is some legislation working it's way through with support from local foreign and native communities. A Canadian friend, also living in Taiwan with a disability, is helping. @globetrotteri
Asking Google #BardAI some questions about #Taiwan . It's doing a pretty good job so far. Question 1: Is Taiwan a country?
Bard: "Ultimately, the question of whether or not Taiwan is a country is a political one that is up to the people of Taiwan to decide."

@SherrilynJ77881 @CNN The morality rate of measles is 2 per 1000, balanced toward small children under 5. Interesting that your mom decided to take that chance with you. Personally, I didn't with my kids. I love them too much.
The #Taiwan indigenous people don't have a written language. A romanized version was adapted from the languages in the early-2000s. Does this mean that their names will be phonetically written in Trad Chinese, BoPoMoFo, or the romanization on documents?
