The contents of Right Hand Privilege Is Wrong have been merged into On Hand Comments. I did this partly because it's easier to devote my efforts towards a single blog, and because there's not enough subject matter for a left handed blog. That's not to say there isn't a lot to talk about, because you will definitely be reading it.

Going on the half hour is going off half-cocked
Another day, another descent into self-destruction. In a country with rampant slavery in mass prisons, rampant cannibalism due to starvation and a lost generation of children so malnourished that teenagers are the size of eight year olds, it's no surprise that the murderous North Korean regime has deemed a change in time zones to be a top priority.

"Juche" allegedly means "self-reliance"? That from a country which can't even feed itself without food donated by the United Nations? It's nothing more than a sad piece of propaganda, from a country that is already drowned in propaganda and brainwashing.
Even if politics weren't an issue, the practicality of this decision makes no sense. Pyongyang is one hundred kilometres west of Seoul, as is the majority of North Korean land and the population. South Korea is on GMT+8, an hour different than Japan. If North Korea were really trying to differentiate itself, they would be going to GMT+7.5, not GMT+8.5.
It's only a matter of time before that government finally collapses. The sooner the better for everyone's sake.

Let's try this again, shall we?
"Eighteen months between posts? Where were you? In jail, or something?"
No, I was on vacation for Chinese New Year 2014. I got interrupted, I procrastinated, and then I got lazy. It's only now that certain subjects have come up again - and new ones have appeared - that I decided to reopen the blog to try again.
Let's see if I can keep it up this time.
I will also merge posts from the other blog I tried to write, "Right Hand Privilege Is Wrong". Left Handers' Day is coming up this week, August 13th.
