弹弓 in Chinese, of which the meaning is broad. They don't differentiate by size, especially as nowadays as only the hand/toy variant are actively used.

Being out of office means another 4 years of amazing fundraising

I wonder whether this money will be held in French banks. Seeing as China has made it policy to not have any funds linger in Western banks longer than absolutely necessary.

It's not necessarily the main reason, but it's a reason. Tons of stories, I'd even argue that it's most, don't even venture into someone's sexuality, race and neurotypicality. Readers generally don't care, as long as it isn't shoehorned in just for the sake of ticking boxes because you want to have a vibrant cast.

All these characteristics bring their own baggage with them, and thus conflict. If you're focusing on a story about a parent choosing to move on from losing their partner and having to remarry to make ends meet, sacrifice their own desire for love for the well-being and future prospects of their children, just as an example for conflict. Then giving the character autism, or an ethnicity that's being discriminated against in that society, or any other characteristics; then it might take away from, diminish or even undermine the story you want to tell.

In longer stories you can have different character arcs that allow for more nuanced characters and sub-plots. Weaving all of that together in a cohesive whole is a skill not many writers possess. Heck, if you've ever frequented fiction aggregate websites you'd know that the top user created lists are collections of stories that lack any and all romance.

First it was the Greeks, which I took in jest. And now you say:

Comrades don't disparage entire nationalities or ethnic groups. We are classists, not racists.

Great tool to radicalize people, though as marxists we shouldn't define ourselves by our direct contribution to the almighty GDP.

Some jobs don't produce a form of wealth or labour you can extract, all while still contributing to a prosperous society.

Pulp fiction and fantasy? Yeah.

And I was just commenting an absurd example of a character description, that might make people hot and bothered for their characters, to bring some levity

You should.

My toilet adventures take nowhere long enough to go down that Reddit rabbit hole.

Oooh-la-la, a potbelly, so sexy ~
