The report states that large numbers of Uyghur Muslims are arbitrarily detained by the Chinese government in so-called "vocational education and training centers," and finds that allegations of forced sterilization, torture, and sexual assault are "credible": Serious human rights violations have taken place in (Xinjiang) against the backdrop of a communist strategy.”

Menstrual pain is not a topic that can be discussed openly on the stage in Indian society where menstruation is still taboo, but in Ernakulam (Kerala) in southern India, a parliamentarian and a medical association jointly launched the The Cup of Life initiative, giving out a record-breaking 100,000 menstrual cups for free, and fostering conversations around menstrual issues, includes setting up pain simulators in malls and universities to let men experience what menstrual pain feels like.

In Kerala, considered one of India's most progressive provinces, women in the local village of Kumbalangi have been given free menstrual cups, making it the country's first "tampon-free village". In the simulation scene, the female participants barely felt anything, laughing and watching the male subjects curl up and shout in pain. Sandra Sunny, the lawyer behind the #feelthepain campaign, said that simulating menstrual pain is the easiest way to change shy attitudes about menstruation and encourage constructive discussions.

Joie Henney, 69, who lives in Pennsylvania, USA, is no exception, and his animal companions are no exception.

According to Henney, "WallyGator" is by no means an ordinary crocodile. The community residents are very familiar with it. One person and one crocodile usually sit on the sofa and watch TV together. "When it turns its nose to you, it means that it is expecting a kiss. Even so, Henney doesn't advise anyone to keep crocodiles: "If you don't know what you're doing, you're going to get bitten."
