@StarbucksKorea why do your new “plant based” menus contain meat, egg and cheese? Misleading and unfair.

@Starbucks Starbucks Korea advertising “plant based” foods that contain meat, cheese and eggs. Why? You’ll make more money by tricking vegans into eating meat?

wholesome in their awe of what their mothers went through for them. Very cute conversations about consent (“what makes you feel good?”

Went on a field trip with my Korean kindergarteners to a government-run sex education facility. They taught them biology that we don’t learn until year 6 and some of them had already learnt from their parents. 6 year olds were SUPER mature looking at models of genitals and very

Today is a good day of how colorful the news in South Korea can be: A grandson of a military dictator going on Instagram to expose his family & police raiding the defense ministry over claims a fortune teller influenced the relocation of the presidential residence.

HIGNFY producers hoping BBC don’t find out that Ian Hislop also edits a satirical magazine occasionally critical of government policy.

@rachealxciv I suck at meditating so not sure if my advice is useful 🤣 but I put on gongs or Buddhist chants and then focus on each body part for a couple of breaths.

It’s all well and good having “good faith” discussions with your friends in person, if you’re going to call people who share their views online idiots/ugly/paedophiles. It shows your friends what you really think of them.

Another Islamophobic "pork party" has taken place outside the Daehyeon-dong mosque building site in Daegu. The "neighbours" argue that Korean customs must be respected, yet I had no idea hatred was a Korean tradition.

if you accept with the following:
- people should be allowed to wear what they want

Tell me I just imagined the Instagram reel of a playboy bunny posing tagged “year of the bunny”. IMAGINE having that much disrespect.

Millennial women have trust issues because we were told for three Bridget Jones movies that this woman wasn’t thin.

It really gives me the feeling that this whole culture war is just fighting for crumbs under the table.

I’m thinking today about how better infrastructure (loads of different kinds of prisons, shelters and crisis centers, lockable individual toilets etc etc etc) would end the “trans debate” and just be better for everyone, and the richest in society have it in their means to do so.

[Jessie Earl @jessiegender]

So much to say. It’s childish for one. Sexual harassment for two. Not to mention the hypocrisy of complaining that trans rights need to be denied because trans people want to assault and show their genitals to women, then doing so yourself as you whine about human rights.
