I think I’m losing weight from these hour and a half walks with Moti, improved sleep, and trying to eat 3 meals a day. Maybe i’ll be able to fit back into some of my clothes from 3 years ago soon??? :-)
LOL! Facebook and its “suggested posts”….
*contemplating packing of bags*
These ads are actually really misleading. I don’t think Americans realize how difficult it’s become to obtain Canadian citizenship.
Esp of you’re a non-English speaking person of colour. (There are roadblocks upon roadblocks.) Not to mention, the Harper government has cut Citizenship & Immigration Canada by almost half.
Average wait times are from 2 to 5 years.
Kinda wish these ads would include that bit of info too.
Word. As an aside, I think US citizens-by-birth also have a misunderstanding of how easy it is to become an American citizen. Most show little ability to understand the challenge when presented with reality… smh.

shit.
people actually use the tag #jap…
of course there’s fetishizing porn in there. of course there are a bunch of people posting sushi shots and cars.
I just… how are people using that as a tag? how are people “cool” with using that shit?
fuck.
Remember Vincent Chin.
On June 19th, 1982, a 27 year old Chinese American, Vincent Chin, was beaten to death in Detroit by two autoworkers- Ronald Ebens and his stepson Michael Nitz- on the night of his bachelor party. Neither saw a night in jail and were released with a fine and probation. The reason? He was mistaken by the two murderers as Japanese during a time of rising anti-Japanese sentiment and decline in the American auto-industry. This racist attack occurred 31 years ago and out of the tragedy, a growing and vibrant pan-ethnic Asian American movement organized. Remember Vincent Chin, remember that the justice system doesn’t always deliver justice to our communities. Stand up, fight, organize.
Today I’ve been followed by The Heritage Foundation and OFA Bakersfield (different platforms, but still). I sense something….
File under #lolwut?!? Why would OFA follow me? Don’t they remember last year? Don’t they see that I don’t live anywhere near Bakersfield? Hmmm…
Making amends for making her sit through so much Senate… This is after she decided rolling down the hill over and over again was fun :-)
this exercise ball as a seat for these senate shenanigans = great idea….
my abdomen is getting a workout from the balance and the laughter.
“Everybody has a preference. It’s not that big of a deal. It’s not a fetish.”
I have been grabbed on the street by drunk white men hollering at me and asking if I have a “vice grip” because apparently “Asians are tight”. Then there are the more subtle forms of fetishization, which are just as problematic and pervasive. Why do people try to play it out like this shit doesn’t matter? Who the hell are they to speak on behalf of all poc? Ugh.
