"Newly unsealed court papers allege that Manuel Rocha engaged in “clandestine activity” on Cuba’s behalf since at least 1981, including by meeting with Cuban intelligence operatives and providing false information to U.S. government officials about his travels and contacts."

"In several meetings with an undercover FBI employee posing as a member of Cuban intelligence, Rocha repeatedly referred to the US as “the enemy” and praised Cuban revolutionary and politician Fidel Castro, according to court documents."

Taiwan’s US ambassador urged West to appease China

Taiwan’s new envoy to the US, Alexander Tah-ray Yui, called on the US and Europe not to “look the other way” in the face of China’s desire to reclaim the self-governing island, Politico reported.

“The best defence, best help that you can do for Taiwan … is by actively, openly voicing your concerns.”

Yui claimed that China was “preparing very seriously” to be able to take back Taiwan, so the island was “increasing [its] defence capabilities” to “confront any possible aggressions in the future.”

The top diplomat compared the situation to the war in Ukraine, which he said was “a possible mirror to Taiwan.”

So the threats are there, and we want to preserve our way of life. We want to preserve our democracy. We want to preserve liberties, and we will defend it.

US ‘Satisfied’ with Japan’s Dumping Nuclear-Contaminated Water Betrays Its Image as Global Leader in Environment Protection: Observers

— Global Times Staff Reporters | August 26, 2023

Illustration: Liu Rui/Global Times

Defying mounting opposition and contrary to its self-styled image as a global leader in environment protection, the US Department of State endorsed Tokyo's controversial dumping of nuclear-contaminated water into the ocean, saying the US is "satisfied with Japan's safe, transparent, and science-based process."

Endorsing Japan's selfish and irresponsible practice that harms world environment and health of human beings in the planet, the US trampled on its own image as a leader in global environment protection, exposing its selfishness and hypocrisy of prioritizing its geopolitical interests above the long-term well-being of the people around the world, observers reached by the Global Times said.

As the US publicly backs the Japanese government's plan to dump contaminated water into the ocean, media reports quoting data from Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan revealed that the US was making the biggest moves in decreasing imports of agricultural and aquatic products from Japan in the first half of 2023.

Data showed that the US is the country that reduced the imports of Japanese agriculture, forestry and fisheries the most in the first half of the year, and the main production areas of the three kinds of food are all in the affected areas of the dumping of nuclear contaminated water, according to media reports.

In an apparent political gesture, US Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel claimed to eat fish from Fukushima to show support for Tokyo's decision during his visit to the region on August 31.

Though being well-aware of the risks brought by the nuclear-contaminated water to surrounding oceans and the entire global environment, the US has succumbed to its political interests and is going against its image portrayed as a leading role for environment protection activist, Lü Chao, an expert on Korean Peninsula issues at the Liaoning Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times on Saturday.

"It is hilarious to see the hypocrisy and double standards held by the US by covering up Japan's extremely selfish and irresponsible wrongdoing," Lü said.

"Acts and deeds from the US show that it purely considers Japan's act of harming global environment and human beings of all countries from a geopolitical perspective. The US's real intention is to tie Japan to its chariot of geopolitical games," Li Haidong, a professor at the China Foreign Affairs University, told the Global Times on Saturday.

Without the indulgence of the US, the Japanese decision on dumping of nuclear-polluted water would not have been so arbitrary. Japan opened a Pandora's box on Thursday with the strong backing of the US, allowing crisis to plague other countries and the international community, Li added.

Amid wide opposition and outcry from the Chinese public that the contaminated-water would eventually pose health risks to products from Japan, the Japanese Embassy in China issued a statement on the Japanese edition page on Friday, reminding Japanese staying in China of being careful not to speak Japanese loudly outside their homes as the possibility of encountering accidents cannot be ruled out.

The reminder triggered strong backlash among Chinese netizens late Friday, with many saying "it is the Japanese government we are opposing not the Japanese people" and some accused Japanese government of attempting to divert attention from being targeted due to its insistence on dumping contaminated water.

Lü told the Global Times Tokyo's hype over the safety of Japanese nationals in China servers its purpose of packaging itself as a victim caught in a cycle of deteriorating China-Japan ties and isolating China in its foreign policy while catering to the US' Asia-Pacific strategy to counter China.

Japanese farm minister Tetsuro Nomura on Friday even expressed his surprise that China was taking the responsive measures by suspending imports of aquatic products from Japan, Mainichi Shimbun reported, saying he was "very surprised and completely unexpected."

Chinese Ambassador to Japan Wu Jianghao had said China's decision to suspend imports of aquatic products from Japan is reasonable and necessary. The responsibility for this situation lies entirely with Japan, and Japan should reflect on its own actions, Ambassador Wu said.

Japan's actions have provoked strong opposition in China, protest against its dumping the contaminated water into the sea has been mounted in South Korea, with lawmakers of the Democratic Party and the Justice Party planning to visit Fukushima from Sunday and Monday, according to the National Assembly on Thursday.

Hi ABL! After watching episode 1 of Between Us, I was impressed with the level of "thirst" between Boun and Prem's characters in the last couple of scenes. Are there shows or scenes of shows, regardless of actual heat level, that you think did "thirst" well, regardless of how that's resolved at the time? Subjective, I know, but would love to get your take on this!

20 BLs with the BEST Thirst!

Thirst wants to slide a hand under his waistband right tf now and grind. Horny wants to rip his clothes off, and probably pop buttons and laugh about it. Yearning wants to run both hands up his back while they kiss deeply. Hunger wants to lift him by the ass and slam him against the wall.

Raise your glasses please, to THIRST.

I Cannot Reach You - Japan 2023

It's fresh in my mind, so first on this list.

Secret Crush on You - Thailand 2022

This scene in particular sprang next to mind, just because for me it kinda defined thirst in Thai BL. (Also see my #1 pick for sides at the end.)

Jun & Jun - Korea 2023

We Best Love: Fighting Mr 2nd - Taiwan 2021

2 Moons: Ambassador (AKA 2 Moons 3) - Thailand 2022

Eternal Yesterday - Japan 2022

Why R U? - Korea 2023

HIStory 3 - the BL that shall not be named - Taiwan 2019

Bed Friend - Thailand 2023

They sleeping together but King still thirsty af

Big Dragon - Thailand 2022

My Beautiful Man - Japan 2021

Between Us - Thailand 2022-23

Minato's Laundromat - Japan 2022

Ghost Host Ghost House - Thailand 2022

the infamous leg scene alone qualifies them, but they very mutually thirsty in general

My Personal Weatherman - Japan 2023

It's the point.

I Feel You Linger in the Air - Thailand 2023

The oil scene is a stroke of genius.

Well, several strokes.

Old Fashion Cupcake - Japan 2022

I Told Sunset About You - Thailand 2020

Love in Translation - Thailand 2023

Just because of that damn convenience store make-out scene.

Nitiman - Thailand 2021

I find thirst is often (although not always) the provenance of the seme character.

Mutual thirst is really rare.

Side dish gravy

Shorts, side couples, and so forth.

Oh My Sunshine Night - Thailand 2022

Noh appears 2x on this list. He's GREAT at thirst. Possibly the only Thai actor to give Japan real competition. GIVE HIM ANOTHER LEAD!

HIStory 4: Close To You - Taiwan 2021

Gen Y 2 - Thailand 2022

@heretherebedork and I call them PokeTongue for a reason.

Y-Destiny - Thailand 2021

kiss x kiss x kiss: Perfect Scandal - Japan 2022

No shocker that Japan is the only one to field a micro on this list. Usually thirst takes more build up.

Defining THIRST

I make a distinction between thirst and other types of physical desire. This is just me and language.

Thirst usually leaps off the screen and has an edge of danger to it. Like they gonna get caught, or go out of control just from wanting to touch. They gonna die without physical contact. It's pure survival need. Japan kinda specializes in this.

There's no humor to thirst, but horny can get kinda cheeky. It's more fun and mutual (ee.g. KinnPorsche). More want than need. So it's more Thailand and Taiwan.

There's also yearning (e.g. The 8th Sense), which has a more emotional soul tether to it. Korea in particular, but also like GMMTV and lower heat prestige stuff, high school things for example (My School President).

And finally hunger, which I tend to think of as desire but with a nourishment component. It's I want what's MINE. Like Taejung in Cherry Blossoms After Winter.

These aren't mutually exclusive, mind you.

I dithered but they didn't quite make the list

Irresistible Love - China 2016

Second Chance - Thailand 2021

Takara & Amagi - Japan 2022

Love Area - Thailand 2022

Takumi-kun - Japan 2007

Moonlight Chicken - Thailand 2023

My Engineer (RamKing) - Thailand 2020

It's why we're all still mad we never got full RamKing

(source)

This posted dated end of 2023. Not responsible for thirsty BL that happens after. Check the comments for additions and other's thoughts on the matter.

I am once again thinking about the reluctant ruler whose arc justly and correctly includes assuming the throne and taking responsibility for the people set before them

#it's about simba coming back to pride rock it's about aragorn using andúril to fight for middle earth and assuming the throne it's about #hiccup marrying astrid and assuming his role as chief and moses returning to egypt #and it's about irina loving her people so fully that when she claims all of her subjects as hers that chernobog must release them to her!!!#and it's about miryem choosing to stay with the staryk and repair the damage and assume responsibility for the land and people!!!!!#and! it's! about! gen!!!!#it's ALWAYS about gen!!!!#gen who didn't want to be king. who hated being king and only wanted to marry a queen but who obeyed his gods and became a king over kings #who lost his home and half his family and his HAND but who ushered in a new golden age.#and it's about sophos who ran away but who shot the ambassador and took back his kingdom #it's about duty and it's about sacrifice and it's always ALWAYS about doing the right thing even at great personal cost because it's about #submitting to a power higher than your own. of recognizing that the calling on life is one for serving others and having so much more to #answer for than just yourself. it's knowing duty is love is duty #i cant stand stories where the answer is 'give up the throne and reject your duty' because no!!! you dont get it!!!#thats how you get the monsters!!! thats how you get the prince turned into a beast and thats how you get every terrible weak king that #aragorn feared becoming #to accept your throne is to die to self!!! you are no longer you but 'king' or 'queen'#it's like queen mary says to qeii in the crown 'elizabeth mountbatten must die #elizabeth regina must take her place.'#that's terrifying! but it's also everything!!!!#die! to! self! die! to! self!!!!!!#lilac rambles #lilac goes to the movies #lion king #prince of egypt #lotr #spinning silver #the crown #tqt #the queen's thief #httyd

Thinking about how Kabumisu interactions post-canon is loud hush-talk among the Elven Nobles in the west and figureheads in the Golden Kingdom. Like the Elven Ambassador??? Speaking with one of the King's most trusted advisors??? Is this a coup plot? A conspirancy? Prelude to invasion?

Meanwhile, Kabru and Mithrun is engaged in the slowest but also sweetest courtship. This is Kabru's first serious-serious relationship (like the leading to an engagement-type of relationship) and he doesnt want to fuck it up; Mithrun meanwhile likes Kabru and wants to be with him but is figuring out the things he wants in this relationship.

(Like I just find both sides panicking -- Elves trying to spy on Mithrun's and his House's affairs at the Golden Kingdom; people of Melini trying to figure out if the elves through Mithrun is somewhat plotting to take over their Kingdom. Meanwhile, Laois cannot be bothered by it; by this time he knows Kabru and by some extension Mithrun, the many times he got scolded by intruding to their dates aosjdodjskjs either way, the King downplays it, the Elven Queen is more amused than wary. Either way, Mithrun eventually quits and moves to the Golden Kingdom permanently -- honestly to just hunt monsters and cook noodles -- Kabru continues his work as political advisor and wards off the court's political enemies. Somewhere along the line, Kabru and Mithrun get married. And Laios uses that as an excuse to have a national monster meat feast lol)

#kabumisu #kabru dungeon meshi #mithrun dungeon meshi #kabru #mithrun #kabru of utaya #mithrun of the house of kerensil #serious talk tho: kabrus relationship w mithrun if mithrun stays as an ambassador is not a good look #at least as laios' political advisor #i dont think laois will doubt kabru; but the other figureheads of the golden kingdom could #and the elves dont particularly hold a great reputation re: acknowledging short lived races and their land titles and possessions but #also mithrun is still an Elven noble #elves could try and use him to spy for the golden kingdom tho i doubt mithrun would want to do that #or be a good fit *looks at pattadol instead*#okay maybe not pattadol
