The Japanese American National Museum is leading the response to the White House's latest absurd attacks on Smithsonian leadership. Every US art museum should be responding similarly, and now. By now it's obvious that a Trump attack on one is intended as a Trump attack on all.

Reporting in that this was a really fun meet-up. I got to learn a bunch of current slang words. Very cool and friendly people. If you're in #London and learning #Mandarin try a #ChineseUnbound event! #Chinese

However, get more excited when Su Mu Yu & Su Chang He showed up briefly. I seem to also like the characters Liu Yue & Mo Chen at the outset, who brought a little more interesting mystery & maturity respectively so far. #DashingYouth #少年白马醉春风 #cdrama

I started watching #DashingYouth. So far, it's lighter & sillier than #BloodRiver. #暗河传 is a later story, but I like the darker aspect to it more. I've heard most people who like the two lighter ones, like 暗河传 less, & those who have watched 暗河传 first tend to prefer it to the others. #cdrama

Evening my lovelies. 💋🫶🏻🙌🏻

#Xianxia watchers, please help me hive mind. Which of these #cdramas do you think someone would love who is a guy into D&D, other fantasy card games, and anime. Doesn't need to have a big romance plot, doesn't like extremely bloody, visceral violence. Ok with stylized, choreographed violence.

How do you know if she's a #woman or a #vessel? 👏🏻🖤 #Art #ArtHistory

Me drowning out a guy talking about money with a little #JeffSatur #Passionfruit. I got way more yummy stuff to listen to, yo. 💋🖤 #TPop

Ep 16: "Respair" perhaps best encapsulates the feeling of this moment. If we can remember that even tragically closed doors lead to inconceivable & unexpected open ones, perhaps hope can replace despair in times of difficulty. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

Ep 16: "Respair" is perhaps best encapsulates the feeling of this moment. If we can remember that even tragically closed doors lead to inconceivable, unexpected open ones, perhaps hope can replace despair in times of difficulty. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

Ep 16: Surprisingly, this #kdrama mentioned God exists because of humans. In places where humans don't exist, God does not either. As beings able to conceive of God or through recognition as one's maker, it's humans that created God. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

Ep 15-16: Wow, every now and then one foresees exactly what is to come. Idk if it was excellent/leading writing or me being particularly sensitive to the #kdrama, but I am happy that things worked out as it seemed they would to me early on. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

Ep 15-16: Cha Joo-ik, who is normally patient & buries his own desires, understands there are other sides to a connection. Perhaps what he was giving wasn't what was needed this time, so he should instead listen & act with courage. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 15: Tak Dong Gyeong feels keenly that while waiting may seem polite & gentlemanly, one never knows if there is time to wait. Timing is often a factor in love, & its importance should not be understated. #SeizeTheDay #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 15: Cha Joo-ik is a decent guy. Aside from his direct manner, he's patient, letting his love interest think about if she wants to be with him & to determine on her own if she loves him. He often puts others needs above his own. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 14: It strikes me when Doom says this "again" shouldn't diminish that the fact we can love at all is amazing in & of itself. Love may bring us heartache, but also bliss & ecstasy. Doom, you love, sir, & so you too shall again. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 14: I 🖤 this moment when a woman moving onto the afterlife leaves everything behind. She didn't need those heavy, burdensome things though she had to carry them throughout life, but in death, she can finally be light & free. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 14: Cha Joo-ik came off as unfeeling, but he quietly watched over Lee Hyeon-kyu, didn't act on his love for his ex, & tried to hold space for them both, until he was encouraged. He cared for & supported him without a reason to. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

But..... I’m happy to discuss dramas….

And we have a new addition to dramas with #introverts: #SeeYouAtWorkTomorrow! Any more to add that our list is missing? #내일도출근! We're now at 113 titles, wow! #KdramaChallenge #Kdrama #Kdramas #Jdrama #JdramaChallenge #Jdramas #Cdrama #CdramaChallenge #Cdramas #ThaiDramas #TWDrama

🚨 "To believe that life is far greater than this one wretched moment.” Prince Daehyun Every day, many want to believe this. A day that goes by without thinking this is lucky. We must remember that this moment is not all there is to life, we must remember the joy of life. #ACraneAmongWolves #JuneHur

🚨 “I am just here, until I am not.” - Prince Daehyun There is only one thing we can be certain of in life and that is the now, the present as it is unfurled around us, and us being and merely immersed in it experiencing it in real time. #ThisMomentThisMomentThisMoment #ACraneAmongWolves #JuneHur

🚨Ep 13: I'm so happy a kiss resolved all of the confusion of disappearing from each other's lives and reawakened them to each other. 😅 #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 13: I love Cha Joo-ik's directness. He gets to the point clearly when he's ready. He let Na Ji-na clearly know his desire for her & motivation behind his actions. She can be confident as she knows where she stands with him. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨 “Because rape is about power; it is never about desire or love... His Majesty is a power-hungry beast with a voracious hunger for more, and what better way to display that he reigns supreme than by taking what is precious to his own people?" - Daehyun #HowUglyPowerIs #ACraneAmongWolves #JuneHur

🚨Ep 12: #SeoInGuk 's micro expressions flicker across his face subtly & are deeply affecting. Moving from glee to confusion, sadness to enlightenment all in the space of seconds—we're the ones who were waiting to see #Doom... #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 12: It's interesting, because God asks Doom if he feels pity for anyone, and he says no, however, it's obvious through his actions that he does: he doesn't understand or care for God's lack of justice by allowing the bad to live. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 11: 🤔 Perhaps, God is doing this to Doom. She needs to see he is able to live on his own, before she allows him to become born into life. She wants to see him pity, feel, not be apathetic and dead inside before he begins. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 10: I love these meta moments where a writer is questioned about what would you do to change the plot, trajectory of fate or their own lives: it likens a writer to a god with regard to their creations: stories, characters, etc. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 9-10: Sadly, Doom's lot was not to belong: he yearned to live while only leading an observational existence, so seeing overshadows all else. He shows human emotions... Perhaps, he merely needs to grow into a human? #InTheWings #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

I'll be heading to this #Chinese - language #TrendingInChina Meet-up in #London if anyone wants to join me. 😁 Fledgling learner, so please bear with me.😅 #Mandarin

And for all those love #DreamingOfAFreakingFairytale newbies, please enjoy my watch thread! It was such an interesting and enjoyable #kdrama to think about. Everything was smarter than it seemed at face value.

Yesss!!! Finally, #DreamingOfAFreakingFairytale is getting some love! No secret I've been a fan, so I will third it heartily. @itsmetinaaaa.bsky.social, it's not just us anymore! Yay! 💯

What, what?! This is awesome @monanaliza.bsky.social! Tysm for sharing. #Japan #London #HyperJapan

Omg, you guys, I got sucked into #DebugMyHeart. This premise is made for me! 🚨 When creating something, even for entertainment, what qualities you leave out can lead to unintended ramifications beyond the creation. Are we responsible for our creations? #Donghua #动画 #animation #bl #ChineseAnimation

Also, adding #MyIdol to our #musician drama list. Peeps, help me flesh out our list if you hear of any others that are missing. #恋与偶像 #kdrama #jdrama #cdrama #ThaiDrama #ThaiDramaChallenge #kdramaChallenge #CdramaChallenge #JdramaChallenge

Adding #MyIdol to the #dancer list as there is a ballerina character. Any new dancer dramas you all know of to add to the list? #kdrama #jdrama #cdrama #ThaiDrama #ThaiDramaChallenge #kdramaChallenge #CdramaChallenge #JdramaChallenge

Anyone taken part in this club's activities? Curious, it looks like they mostly talk current dramas, but I'm not sure. Nothing on the schedule for Summer yet, but neat to see it if it still exists. #London #kdrama #LondonKoreanDramaClub

🚨 These odd systems, sadly still present as beauty standards today, where women must conform to 1 look even against genetics; desire for so many is purely based on control. "Every woman appeared the same... All crafted to be identical, with no uniqueness, no soul." Iseul #ACraneAmongWolves #JuneHur

🚨 Relevant now as ever, perhaps if we could always look at others from a mindset of kindness, connection, & care...🤔 "In dark times, every mother becomes your mother, every child your child, every sister your sister..." "And every stranger in need, a friend." Madam Yul #ACraneAmongWolves #JuneHur

🚨Ep 8: Every now and then one knows the answer before it's revealed. Pleasantly surprised to find out Doom wouldn't be able to give her her wish, because she didn't have to wish for it, it already was, as I suspected. #IsLove #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨Ep 8: Doom creates beauty & life, but pulled from memory & the past. While things disappear due to him, his vaults forever capture fragments to be released again in time. I am fascinated that he is an archivist rather than a killer. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨 Ep 7: Sometimes the one who calls us isn't the person we expect, but if we're lucky, it's the person we hope. Shared sentiments once reflected upon, can help us find solace and truths that help us to navigate our existence. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨 Ep 7 unpacks people's proclivity to judge themselves: Doom understands that the ramifications of his actions are hurting himself in the end. Similarly Cha tells Na not to get caught up in guilt & instead find a way forward. #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨 Ep 7: Tak Dong Gyeong reminds us we never know what others go through unless they choose to reveal it to us. In the dark as we are, it's better to operate from a place of kindness rather than judgement. #HowToUseOurHeartsProperly #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨 Ep 7: "What's Your Dream?" To live unhindered by finances, obligations, other's rules and expectations, to live on a whim, free and wild as one wants—what a dream indeed... #WhimWhiskingThroughHeartbeats #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

🚨 Ep 7: Had many of us heard these words earlier in life, perhaps we would have found the strength to live confidently and authentically sooner, unfettered by the binds we self-impose. #FreedomIsSometimesNeededFromOurselves #DoomThreading #DoomAtYourService #Kdrama #DAYSVCIL #kdramaFaceOff

Wow!! In a huge upset #IdolI unseated all the other dramas on my #PlanToWatch list with 8 glowing recs (three came in a hair later). I'm so excited to watch it as #KimJaeYeong is one of my favorite actors. Congrats to the team that made this widely loved #kdrama! #MadeTheCut #KilledTheCompetition
