I hate when people ask me what I want for Christmas. If I wanted it, I bought it. If I didn’t buy it, you can’t afford it either 🥂

Sure, we’ve got problems in America. But what happens elsewhere still matters because history has shown they can bite us in the ass later #cambodia #thailand #haiti #sudan #tanzania #indonesia

I would just like to let everyone here know I put kimchi on a hotdog and I’m never going back.

My favorite comment from someone in Hawaii after looking over my content and then a Santa pic, “What is your life even?!” The answer: I don’t know

We didn’t vote on it. A Commission voted on it.

This new generation of #Holocaust deniers can rewrite history all they want. But there are receipts courtesy of Ike #christiannationalism #endracism #antisemetism

When they fight for teachers leading prayer in public schools, Ten Commandments in federal and state buildings as #religiousliberty but decry building #Hindu statue on private property, they don’t really care about #religiousfreedom #northcarolina #stopasianhate

“Doctor, your four o’clock…” “Is dead?” “No, he’s ugly.” “Then k*ll h*m.”

Love the subversive #socialism of #CharlesDickens in #ChristmasCarol

Another racist POS statue is gone. This one in #SanFrancisco. It was replaced by a bust of the late beloved San Francisco #MayorEdLee #jamesphelan #stopasianhate #endracism

Today is the anniversary of the #RapeofNanking or #NanjingMassacre In pursuit of making the Empire of Japan great, daily rhetoric against criminal and garbage peoples from other countries, creating more business for corporations, it has lessons for us today in America #manifestdestiny #maga

Started this novel before the movie starts filming. I probably will end up not seeing the movie—like Hamnet. I’m afraid it won’t do the book justice #gerryreads #oceanvuong #vietnameseamerican #aapi

Thanks #DowntownEvanston for sponsoring #EvanstonNouveau #RotaryClub at this year’s Warm Bevvy Walk #evanston #hotchocolate

He blew another dog whistle for the #racist white #Christiannationalists saying all non-white immigrants aren’t meant to be American Read: open.substack.com/pub/gerfarin...

I'm actually so tired of the British food slander because it's just not true, meanwhile Denmark and Germany are right fucking there 😭

Today, I learned the U.S. Marine Corps no longer have tanks

New episode is live. I talk about #AsianAmerican comedy. Also, buy #ZarnaGarg memoir

It is said that third class passengers knew the Titanic was sinking before the first class passengers. Think about that when considering the state of our nation

If you really think about it.. lamps in video games use real electricity

Iran and Egypt have complained to FIFA over Seattle’s plans to promote LGTBQ+ support during a World Cup match this June.

Looooooove that a customer filed a complaint against me saying I was quote “ promoting gender confusion” by not dismissing his addressing me as “pretty young lady”!

It’s my favorite song from #Evita #anxiety #change #newyear #wheredowegofromhere

The Vietnamese equivalent of my last name Farinas, a derivative of wheat flour, is Bột mì. My Vietnamese last name is Bộtmì. I’m a noodle! My Germanic first name’s closest equivalent is Vương. Bộtmì Vương

Sans-serif fonts are too queer for the Trump administration #marcorubio #timesnewroman #calibri #accessibility

Hegseth is no Robert McNamara

Atheists are not our enemy. There’s a whole theology about this #atheists #atheism #agnostic #agnosticism #religion

How an obscure term used in anthropology leaped from the pages of academia into the Chinese meme world and then became part of Chinese government policymaking. n.pr/4iYqnn5

I think my neighbors are annoyed by my Vietnamese lessons

Illinois state Sen. Andrew Chesney says aggressive around the clock deportations of undocumented will solve the nation’s housing crisis #andrewchesney #nokings #handsoffchicago #iceraids #housingcrisis

I’m afraid to watch #Hamnet because the book was one of the best historical novels I’ve read and I’m afraid the film will ruin my perception of the story

No get dat kine problem if you gon go on da Skyline #honolulu #hnl #thebus #skylinehnl

Of course criminal slumlord Jared Kushner is behind Paramount’s hostile $108B bid to acquire Warner Bros. Faking a Middle East peace mission and illegally accepting $2B from Saudi Arabia in exchange for US intel wasn’t enough for this crook. They should’ve jailed him long ago.

💜 You don’t stop being family just because you're a Senator. In his first Senate speech, @kim.senate.gov opened up about becoming a caregiver for his father as his dad battles Alzheimer’s. He reminded us that caring is something our country should value. seiu.co/3MtvQWT

Working out in jeans has always been and will always be the killer behavior

Let’s talk about the real #SantaClaus

Caputo’s has the $60 Dolce & Gabbana panettone. Who’s buying me one?

It’s basically a different version of history repeating itself #vietnamwar #housedivided #antifa

The rhetoric today against immigrants is no different from the rhetoric of World War II before we rounded up #JapaneseAmericans and put them in detention centers #nokings #iceraids #ice #cbp #immigrants Read: open.substack.com/pub/gerfarin...

True story. #Reindeer don’t like to be pet or touched

Finally they have added a raven to Ravenswood as cold as this neighborhoods heart

Shut up and take my money!!!

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed. Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it. When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

F*ckin* clunkers!

I’m jealous of my friend’s roadtrip through West Virginia and Kentucky
