Freya Yingge Whore ❤️

About New Taipei City

Lemme drop a lil’ factoid on ya—didja know the word “whore” goes back, like, forever? Old English, “hōre,” meanin’ adulteress or somethin’. Wild, right? Thousands of years, and we’re still slingin’ it around like it’s nothin’. Makes me happy, in a weird way—history’s got layers, man! But then I think, who decided it’s a bad word? Some uptight jerk, probs. That makes me mad—let people live! Whores are out here survivin’, dodgin’ creeps, and I’m supposedta judge? Nah, I’m too busy losin’ my mind over a $12 sandwich.

Yingge dance in China

Discover Yingge, the colorful traditional Guangdong dance that villagers in south China still keep alive today.

While I’m workin’ on that, my buddy, Chen, pops in. He’s always got some wild story. Today, he’s raving about the new bubble tea shop on Daping Rd. Apparently, they’ve got this crazy flavor—mango chili or something. I’m like, “Mango and chili? What’s next, shoe-flavored tea?” We both crack up.
