I actually specifically love writing in cursive because none of my students can read my notes. It’s like a secret code, but sad!

She could have spared herself so much heartache if she’d just thought a little harder about this. “Healthy and allergen-friendly versions of Americanized ‘Chinese’ food.” No fucking chopstick fonts.

Lizzo gives me heart-eyes. I’m in a long distance relationship and cry-singing Cuz I Love You (“Never been in love before/what the fuck are fucking feelings, yo?”) is the only reason I’m still saneish. 

I’m not sure those are Korean, actually — I saw the hasselback potatodogs in the US before I saw them in Korea. Regardless, they’re tasty as hell!

Bindaetteok is also the last kind of anju I would choose to represent Korea. Kimchi pajeon! Korean fried chicken! Dried myeongtae! Jokbal! Tteokbokki!

Is that a compliment or a burn? It’s hard to tell with Yoko. 

SER PODRICK PAYNE! The tri~~~~~~~~~~~Pod!

Heh heh heh. 

“Their royal highnesses” is an absolutely preposterous thing to call other human beings. How does anyone do it with a straight face? 

South Korean bean pancakes.

“Wellness” is a scheme invented by our corporate overlords to squeeze every last ounce of productivity out of us by dehumanizing our most profound moments of sorrow and joy into microtargetable data. Don’t be complicit. Smash your smartphone, burn your fitbit, eat your calorie tracker.

I see no potential problems with this plan at all.

Perhaps she’s a lizard-eating Harris’s hawk?

Thanks!

Thanks!

I saw this referenced in (I think) the Root the other day and was so hype to preorder it. Good luck, Anna, I hope you sell a trillion copies! 

I need to buy a gift for a three-year-old. Are any of these things age appropriate?

I...don’t know how babies work.

They’re super easy to make at home! I always have a jar or two in the fridge: https://keviniscooking.com/authentic-mexican-pickled-carrots/

Life situation =/= disability. You choosing to have kids is something you, uh, chose. My disability is something that was forced onto me.

I am an actual bona fide disabled person — cancer ate the bones of one of my legs, required surgeons to cut out about half of one lung, and caused me some permanent brain damage.

I get that there are certainly games that are unadaptable for me. Certainly I’m never going to play DDR with my prosthesis. But when I was…
