Happy Birthday Annamalai ji

Some of you may find it interesting that the internal translator in RedNote will not translate a post or reply/comment that contains the words 'Tiananmen Square'. One fellow made an innocent reply that was supportive of China in general, nothing about the 'thing that didn't happen' . I had to screencap it then use Lens to translate.

Good morning ☕ How are you #MondayMood? #June3 is #WorldBicycleDay

#Bicycles are cheap, don't require electricity or gasoline, are good for staying healthy, and are a great way to make friends. That's why this day was established with the aim of creating an environment in which "everyone can participate equally in society."

 
#月曜日の気分 はいかがですか?☕
今日は #世界自転車デー です

#自転車 は安価で電気やガソリンを必要とせず健康維持に役立ち友達作りのキッカケにもなる…というわけで「誰もが平等に社会参加できる」を目指して設立されました
風を切って走るような爽快な1週間になりますように🚲💨🍃
