Post-Plenum anti-CCP banners appear in Beijing
Another high-profile banner protest unfurls in China’s capital as the CCP’s Fourth Plenary Session wraps up. By Eleanor Zhang for Three Gorges Probe | Editor: Probe International For the original Chinese-language version of this article, see the publisher’s website here. On Oct.
As a Chinese immigrant to Canada, I couldn't build a life there—so I went back home - Macleans.ca
As a teenager in Beijing, I attended an international high school for students who wanted to go to university in Canada. My parents thought I’d have a better education in Canada, which they’d heard was a safe country with more affordable tuition than the U.S. In Grade 12, I did a half-year exchange to Bathurst, New Brunswick. I fell in love with the small-city vibe there—the population was only 15,000, compared to 21.7 million in Beijing.
Love Without Words: The Quiet Storytelling of Heartstopper
CW: abuse, racism Among the many interesting moments in Netflix’s latest big hit Heartstopper, the one I found particularly revelatory about the show’s texture is in the last episode, when the two protagonists Nick (Kit Conner) and Charlie (Joe Locke) are sat next to Alice Oseman – creator of the comic as well as the TV series – who sketches the two boys as comic characters on her tablet.
Barbie reborn - Cherwell
CW: Body image When I learnt that a new Barbie film is coming out in 2023, my first reaction was excitement. The batch of watchable Barbie films produced by Mattel trickled out more than twenty years ago, and the name Greta Gerwig never fails to ramp up expectations.

Queer As Folk: Pride is where community is
I was glad that I binged the American Queer As Folk instead of another round of Friends back in March 2020. Adapted from Russell T Davies’ original in 1999, the show was the first hour-long drama to feature homosexual men and women in the history of American television, as well as the first to include detailed depiction of sex between men.
Tenet review: Can visual spectacle make up for missing humanity?
After three postponements and millions of dollars’ worth of Covid-induced extra marketing, the much-anticipated action-thriller film, Tenet, has finally greeted a global audience, giving many the necessary push to make their first cinema trip in months. Said to be in the high-risk tier of activities, sharing a screen with multiple strangers has become a daring adventure in and of itself. The whole world is crumbling, and people need a pleasant distraction.
Queer in disguise: where sexual identity intersects costume
While a male star may once have been able to wear an old wedding suit to the Oscar’s without anyone batting an eyelid, the increasing diversity in men’s fashion now continues to sensationalise the red carpet.
Acting from a very young age has never been a rare thing in the show business, but very few child stars were introduced to the film industry by being chucked out of a window on their first day on set. On Friday October 18th, the Game of Thrones star Isaac Hempstead Wright made his debut at the Oxford Union.
