(It's Guangzhou City btw... pretty sure I used to walked around here as a kid before we emigrated)

4K HD photos that mom sent me (read: blurry like driving in rain without windshield wipers lmfao)

Those kids in the second to last picture should really be wearing helmets while riding their invisible skateboards.

    I remember I kinds did some "parkour" on the ledge... (just walking on the ledge there not really "parkour" but its more fun to think of it as parkour lol)... Like you see that wheelchair ramp thing? I remember like just hopping over the barrier and on to the stairs and the back on the other side... kinda scary to think the on the other side of it is like a very high drop... ๐Ÿซฃ

    Oh we used to play with these "Skateboards" in the plaza around the area... (still played this a bit when we were in Brooklyn NYC during the first few years when I was like 8-12, then just grew out of it... felt childish to me)

    Also safety? Pffff my dad literally just turned off an electric circuit then proceeded to TOUCH THE WIRES without gloves to fix something...

    Like what if the circuit switch failed? Where are the precautions? Do electritions do this? (He did not have a license in electricity stuff)

    I was like: Aaaahhh dad don't die and leave me alone on this mortal realm... ๐Ÿฅบ

    Luckily nothing happened

    Also: OSHA is not a thing in China.

    On a related note: My old apartment building would not meet western safety standards...

    Do electritions do this?

    Depends on how long they've been an electrician, sometimes they're in the game too long and get complacent. You're supposed to check it with a multimeter first though, if you want to be safe. If you don't want to be safe take a shower first, don't dry off, and bite on a wet sponge while you do it lmao.
