Oh nothing, just an orange-ish cat in his bubble bein’ a goof

Georgia was skating to MORTAL KOMBAT at the Olympics exhibition gala

LIFE ITSELF - a movie I hated so much, my soul tried to forcibly exit my body partway through

It's not shitposting, it's likesmaxxing, duh

How many news outlets are scrambling to rewrite their articles on the Men’s free skate results right about now?

(Maybe that Quad God tank wasn’t a great idea in hindsight)

As I left, I gave full permission for this. Going home with open eyes

I didn’t come back to Seoul just to visit this Samoyed cafe but it WAS one of the first things I mapped on my itinerary.

I saw SORRY TO BOTHER YOU at Sundance which was especially funny bc none of the white people in the audience knew how to react while the BIPOC folks hooted uproariously.

Did Sony learn NOTHING from K-pop Demon Hunters??????

Hit the point of travel when all I can think about is my bed and my cats.

And people think Asians all look alike

Sappy post alert: Befriended a fellow ATINY from Italy at the Golden Hour Pt4 pop-up event in Seoul — love how K-pop brings people together (with international fans banding together in mutual confusion).

I BETTER see bunches of sugarcane grass running around city streets come Halloween!!!

Yeah, going to be adding “does not use AI in surgery” to my list of criteria for a surgeon. Any surgeon. Absolutely not.

Knowing there are direct flights to Asia from Dulles is going to be so bad for my wallet. Gonna become one of those people that’s like “I’m itchy in DC, gonna fly to Seoul/Taipei for a few days, bye”

Really feel that the people who didn’t like watching Bad Bunny’s halftime show are sad, joyless people in general. Can’t be helped, I guess!

Variety confirms the wedding in Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show was real

If you are in charge of a large organization of any kind that cuts jobs, but particularly one that employs journalists, part of what you get paid so much money for is looking angry and disappointed people in the eye while they yell at you. If you don’t want to do that, don’t be the big boss.

DC friends, please stay warm!

Unfortunately, I know just enough Mandarin to convince people I understand them when they speak to me (I sometimes do, but usually don’t lol). I *think* my chin was complimented but I also can’t be sure lmao

One more comment on the Post debacle: this hurts journalism broadly. Good journalists will go do something else. The rest will be fighting for fewer jobs and everyone will earn less. Fewer people will take up the career. The damage done is to the ecosystem, as well as the paper.

Sightseeing 😮‍💨

Like what’s the point now of being a billionaire and owning a newspaper? At least the robber barons gave some of what they stole back to the public.

Sorry, I can't come into the office because my cat would be sad.

What do you call it when you’re so in sync with your partner that you end up with matching injuries that occurred on opposite sides of the world?

I’m finally back in Asia after a 16-hr flight and another 3-hr one. Ready to fall into bed.

I resent how difficult it is for me to walk in DC right now. Roads are cleared *for cars* but the pedestrian situation is absolutely ridiculous.

I hate ticketmaster so much

Thrilled for all the SINNERS noms, including and especially Wunmi Mosaku and Delroy Lindo!!!

This reminds me of an excellent review I read on this movie by Brooke Obie, which has this banger line in it: “A loveless revolutionary is just a terrorist.” blackgirlwatching.substack.com/p/one-battle...

See, I'm not fighting in today's BTS Ticketmaster battles for myself, I'm fighting them for my mom which makes the stakes so much higher.

“Cant sleep… i’ll just have a quick look at my phone”

Odds are rising that my Sunday plans will be cancelled

Ugh, that sickening feeling when being a decent person bites you in the ass. #vagueposting

One of the many striking things about this video is that when the woman filming tells the agents "I'm a U.S. citizen," they respond by asking her where she's from, as if being born somewhere else delegitimizes the fact of her citizenship.

Can’t help but think about the multiple people who lost their jobs for posting much less inflammatory statements about Charlie Kirk.

Connecticut Public's Daniela Doncel and Mark Mirko were on-scene at last night's vigil for Renee Good in Hartford. "A gray sedan and a white van, both unmarked, drove through the crowd, knocking a person over." www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-01...

what an image

On Wednesday, Renee Macklin Good was fatally shot by a federal ICE agent. Becca Good, her wife, shared the following statement with MPR News.

MPR playing an eye witness account right now of ICE shooting directly through the windshield at her face and not giving her medical care for 10 minutes.

Also, every time we get into the subject of American vs. British food, 99% of the time, there's a healthy dash of classism in every argument. Like, beans are nutrient-rich, easily prepared, accessible and CHEAP. Corn syrup/dyes/etc are in a lot of the cheapest/most accessible foods in the U.S.

ME ME ME ME ME

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day. Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me. 🧵

NPR built a visual archive of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, showing exactly what happened through the lenses of the people who were there. In "Chapter 2: Stop the Steal," we look at how false claims of a stolen election mobilized Trump supporters.

I fell doing a jaunty little pivot while onstage during a Christmas musical. My leg suddenly wouldn’t hold my weight so I had to crawl offstage. Learned a couple years later that I’d torn my ACL.

Having now watched three episodes of Heated Rivalry, I can definitively say that I would've died of sheer mortification less than ten minutes into the show if I'd listened to my mom and watched it with her. Soul gone. Deceased.

The cats (plural, no less) were not involved in the affair whatsoever.

I did dead hangs and scapula shrugs for the first time and it already has me like 🤔 should I get one of those pull-up bars for the house 🤔🤔🤔
