Well, my mum and aunty can replicate the dish very well. I have tried. Though I can cook well, chicken rice seems to evade me. It is worth a trip to Singapore though. I used to live there til I hit my teens. Ah Singapore in the 90s. I used to dream of emigrating, which I did and now I reflect on the old days and… Read more

I felt this article deep in my bones. I’m 35, have a master’s degree, and have a pretty decent resume. I do social justice education, and the work is incredibly satisfying (and at times infuriating, but I knew what I was getting into), but the money just isn’t there. I’m working on getting a side-hustle because I have… Read more

Thank you thank you thank you. Yet it’s not supposed to give any of us pause when an Asian woman imitates Blackness and speaks AAVE to be funny. Ok. Read more

I see exactly what happened here. White-washed Asian woman tried to pull her white adjacent card on the Black people that were there because she knew (or figured) that nothing would happen to her because shes Asian and showing off pretty much in front of her employers. They sided with her (because of course they did)… Read more

Is it like this?

Oh yes, I love crime dramas, I’ll be sure to watch it, thanks for the recommendation! And I love Hong Kong entertainment too, all the triad and kung-fu movies I watched from the 80's, 90's and after, so much so that when I went to Hong Kong I had a blast seeing those winding roads, the harbour, and I was : “Oh, I know… Read more

Oho, Wang Kai.....If I ever meet him, I’m afraid I’ll get the urge to pinch his cheek while shaking it and say: “You’re sooooo cute!” For his sake, let’s hope I never meet him ;-) Read more

Kkkkkkkk, those Grandpas are funny, and yeah, it’s incredible but I’ve never seen any old Korean person who is not impatient. I think I’d prefer Taiwanese uncles, most bang for the money is a good thing!

Oh, yes, wartime. Wartime and those countless invasions. It explains also the mind-boggling pace they live, everything is pali-pali. Once I took a Korean relative to a beautiful, gorgeous, mountain near here, 3 hrs driving to arrive at the top, she pali-pali us so that less than 15 min. later I was driving us back :’(… Read more

Do you think that Asian Americans (or immigrants) are more likely to be more woke than white Americans? I can see arguments on both sides. I think that Asian Americans are often very unfairly perceived to be honorary whites who receive no discrimination. I also think that many Asian Americans are perpetuating that… Read more

Avoid like the plague, if the plague also had smallpox and bad breath, the brand “Pamana” on anything Filipino cuisine. As a connoisseur and proponent of store-brand products, it hurts me to say that the Pamana brand is a terrible version of whatever it is supposed to be. Whatever it is, you can find out what the… Read more

On an unrelated topic, has this already been seen here (kids recreating the Black Panther costumes):

Let’s start first about this: the first commenter doesn’t have qualms with you. You responded to her original comment, I responded to your comment (as, since this is a comments section, is my right to do so, this is not a private chat). I also made a comment to her, and she answered me. See, the conversation is split… Read more
