Relevant to the lettuce discourse.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

My husband and mother both still make fun of me for pronouncing the authors name as “Mawg ham” 🤦‍♀️ Read The Painted Veil for the first time and wonder what I would have made of its setting (British Hong Kong and China) if I had read it as a teen/young adult with his other books. I truly wonder.

i love libraries lol

I have a very strong memory of the first drag show I ever saw (at a gay bar in Memphis in the early 2000s). I was blown away by the astonishing athleticism of one of the drag queens. This post brought back that memory in a rush and told me her name: Tandi Iman Dupree. 👑

The reveal in this episode of #WidowsBay was amazing. The set up and execution was utter perfection and I am still giggling about her choice of headdress lmao

Oh no. My husband was at his step mom’s house for a few days and as soon as he opened the suitcase I could smell whatever incense she uses from all the way upstairs. It is POTENT. And now the whole house smells of it lol. I don’t know the fragrance. To me is just smells like garden dirt

Caught #TheFurious in theater last night and it’s so funny when you have such (awesome) over-the-top action and yet the audience still viscerally reacts to the poignant moments (a bunch of audible “gasp! No!”s) youtu.be/Avky8dVaqAI?...

For any Netflix employee who might be scraping data: I just want you to know that I canceled Netflix when you canceled Sense8.

Went into a grocery store that lost most of its power today. Eerie to walk half-dimmed aisles without the sounds of refrigerator/freezers running and music playing over the speakers.

I’ve seen close to 250 kdramas but this year barely moves the needle Yellow- completed Grey- started but dropped

My gourd bottle is now a lamp!

I watched #Supergirl and was quite taken by it! I can think of so many stories with a young girl and adult male protector (true grit, Leon, man from nowhere, Logan, etc- all great) and this is the only one with the same set up, but the protector has total cool-older-sister vibes. I really dug it

LOL! What the heck I had no idea this was the premise of #GenieMakeAWish!

The recall covers stores in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Kentucky, Georgia, Alabama, Virginia and Tennessee.

I cant get it out of my head share.google/Yu0XSv5BCKTd...

Really loved so much about #TheFirstJasmine, but found one thing particularly grating: The ML kept telling the FL not to do things, ostensibly for her own sake They are one of my favorite cdrama couples and I think the drama has full faith in the FL, so I don’t know why the writers did that

Am I just PPL-brained or is this an AT&T tie-in promotion? 🤔

Anyone looking to get away from life for a year and wouldn’t mind being in relative isolation/do simulated Mars walks? Here you go! www.nasa.gov/humans-in-sp...

I love spending time with my parents, but I struggle at their house… they have an amazing view and tons of crafting gadgets, but they also got rid of their comfortable couches for some aesthetic ones and the main room is open-concept and echoey I fight with myself to not lie in bed all day lol

Hah! Some more “I like you” cuteness… share.google/pdcPVLlPoAVc...

We’re waiting to find out if my husband gets laid off next week and I think I’m 60/40 in favor of laid off. Sure, on the one hand we will lose half our income and his health insurance costs will go up significantly, but on the other hand we could go bowling every day 🤔 I can’t choose

Do I want him to smolder? Do I want him with goofy floppy hair speaking satoori? 🤔 The pull is equal

You know I’ve been to Bangkok and I still sometimes mishear it as Beijing. Totally did that tonight… someone said he went to Bangkok and I was like oh I was in China a few months ago 🤦‍♀️ can’t stop ruminating on it now of course 😩

Had two 19 year old clients today and both are super into poetry. How cool. One has memorized dozens of poems in Arabic and Urdu, and the other writes her own poems and is delighted when she gets to share them with others.

My husband doesnt watch dramas with me usually but he’ll catch bits and pieces. And then he refers to them with names like, “that gwaenchana gwaenchana drama” ( #WelcomeToWaikiki”), “the #F4 progenitors of various origin” ( #MeteorGarden/BOF) “Unbreakable but he’s a serial killer” ( #AKillerParadox)

Why did I drop #SiJin? 🤔 I’m downloading eps for a plane ride and wondering if I dropped it for a reason or just put it down and forgot to pick it back up

Watched #TheWonderfools and it was fun, breezy, but ultimately just popcorn filler Definitely worth watching if you’re just looking to turn your brain off and to go with the flow. That flow is zany dorks being utterly ridiculous, yet somehow charming? And Cha Eun Woo acquits himself well

Episode 31 did not disappoint!! 🫶

I’m literally laying on my couch while facing the TV and choosing to watch a drama on my phone even though I could stream on my tv just as easily lol

I haven’t found myself in such dire straits that I keep watching the trailer for an upcoming episode in a long long time. But #TheFirstJasmine ep 30 has my insides twisted in knots and the trailer looks like someone will wring them like a washcloth. Can’t wait!

Also finished, also mostly enjoyed. 1000% worth watching for the acting, and not getting too engaged with the plot or execution.

I see you

Finished #MyRoyalNemesis but the last two eps were a total slog I’m reminded of #ExtraordinaryYou and how the show shouldn’t have stretched so thin between present/past lives, who-knows-the-secret, and the constant blacking out of the lead characters lol But the Big Fish ending for grandma was 🫶

Finally finished s2 of #Andor and damn. Peak storytelling. Probably the only thing in our era that adequately confronts our reality (fascism) and in such a well-told, character-forward way. Beautiful drama. Phenomenally done. Still can’t believe Disney gave it a green light for two seasons lmao

Tiangou, a dog-like creature of folktale, is said to eat the sun during an eclipse. Pic is from #TheFirstJasmine

I’m reading the translation for #TheFirstJasmine while waiting for more eps and it is fascinating The characters have the same names, but fully different experiences. The entire Lishan Academy mystery and palace intrigue appears to have been written for the drama It’s like reading a parallel book

Mayo

Any of you, like me, who kind of loved the red-scarf guard in #PursuitOfJade more than anyone else, get hyped. He’s back in #TheFirstJasmine 🥰

i know i live in america but im watching a kdrama and this mc is freaking out over a hospital bill not covered by insurance that comes to about 200 usd. very funny

Did you all know that No Exit is actually about calling AT&T customer service??

AC broke on the way into a 90+ degree week. Not great. Untenable. Went out for a portable AC unit 🥵 thankfully in stock. @jamesdramac.bsky.social still hot where you are?

Evidence A for my past comment about sensitive toes: My comment to them was just an explanation for why I was in their notifications in the first place, after having what -I thought- was a decent interaction with them earlier in thread, and now the thread is locked down to further comments 🤷‍♀️

Spoiler for #TeachYouALesson 🚨 🚨 I am almost shocked at the reaction I had when the inspectors with their webtoon violence stood down so that a teacher could enact old school corporal violence on a student (smacking hands for not obeying) No passing judgement yet, just reflecting

Lolol. I have a cdrama group chat with some well off ladies who are often sharing Xiao Zhan Gucci and Tod’s ads and buying some of the things and it is so foreign to me!

Finally started in on the alcohol i bought in Suzhou last year. I walked past the little shop like five times and finally gave in because I loved the bottle too much lol. It’s called Bohu’s Smile. Tang Bohu was a famous poet who has a house museum in Suzhou I visited, and I loved the connection

Started #TeachYouALesson and ten minutes in I think I’m sold? I’m interested to understand what they’re going to do with this premise. Just fantasy fulfillment? Deeper than that? Love the deranged lead and his open palm slapping lmao
