I will say, I am sort of excited for the film adaption of Crazy Rich Asians for this reason. First, I am not Asian but thought the book was hilarious and super interesting. It will also be great to see a cast of almost all Asian characters, playing actual people (not just nondescript Asian characters in the…

She is the driver of the show, but Evan has been coming on strong this season.

Her performance as Jessica is probably my favourite thing about that show - and I have a lot of things I love about that show. She is perfect. I hope she starts getting cast in more stuff ASAP.

Wu is amazing on Fresh Off The Boat. She absolutely needs to be in more things.

Pretty sure that’s him with his daughter with Soon-Yi. That said, I can’t believe this guy was allowed to adopt.

THANK YOU. Her parents Andre Previn and Mia Farrow adopted her, raised her, and fucking educated her, Woody.

Yes, my understanding is that she never was in an orphanage, she went from living in the street to being Mia’s daughter when she was about 6-7(?) so she would have traveled the world and been educated by her mother with no pervy strings attached if he hadn’t made his move.

And he seems a little confused about who exactly changed her life by adopting her from Korea.

The metric was specifically designed to detect racism against blacks, so yeah. But one could conceivably do a different study using slurs against other groups.

Is there anything we can do to help even a little bit? Does anyone know?
