@SMozenter Thank you for being my BTSA and GLAD coach! It might’ve been years ago, but the ideas and strategies you helped me with are still very much with me!
Just heard an NPR guy say he cried so hard while seeing Everything Everywhere All at Once that he gave himself a claustrophobic panic attack because he was wearing a mask. This is the single most NPR statement possible, they should shut down now because they're never topping that
The @OaklandEdFund has always been problematic in @OUSDNews but the appointment of @Kyra4OakSchools who works for Mayor but is paid by Ed Fund really brings the conflict of interest home. Ed Fund contracts now have their own consent agenda so Mungia can recuse from all. #oakedu
@umairh I see it on the road everyday. People are ready to pop off at any given moment and many times, it’s via reckless and impulsive driving which is so dangerous.
@myhlee The pressures don’t end with marriage, as having biological kids is typically the next expectation. There’s a lot of social pressure around the achievements with children too… I could see how someone might look at that future path and opt out if it doesn’t seem right for them.
@myhlee Also the traditional pressures surrounding marriage like dowries, big fancy weddings, familial expectations of personal & professional “achievement” of spouses, etc. probably make it harder to want to get married. As a 1.5 KoreanAm woman, I had to navigate some of that myself.
🧵There’s a Korean bakery chain called Paris Baguette (PB) which is as ubiquitous as Starbucks in Korea. They have your café offerings like below-average coffee and mediocre French-style pastry ubiquitous with Korean bakeries. #1u
Holy Hell.
Kroger is planning to merge with Albertsons.
If it succeeds, Kroger will have control over:
Ralphs

Harris Teeter
Dillons
Fred Meyer
Vons
Safeway
Jewel-Osco
Shaw’s
If you’re wondering why grocery prices are so high, look at the source: Oligarch control.
