Passing through Mong Kok on a bus with my small children. "Mama why are there SO many police?" I didn't see any protesters but literally hundreds of police. How can anybody justify this?! What do we tell our children?! What is their future?! #HongKongProtests #MongKok #HKkids

@JaneRichardsHK Sorry to hear that, hope everyone is much better now.

Remarkable graphic here via @XinqiSu @holmeschan_ showing the number of “public order events” (i.e. protests) in Hong Kong over the 25 years since the handover, as well as data on arrests and banned protests:

It was a privilege to interview @limlouisa about her highly claimed latest book “Indelible City: Dispossession and Defiance in Hong Kong” for @NewBooksLaw, published by @riverheadbooks 2022.

There are some vegetarian options for "two dishes & rice"! Have translated a list from the "Veggie Youth" Facebook group. A few of them are Buddhist, and serve free food to the community several days a month. So, don't be scared by the queue. It moves very fast.

@STOPHEATHERTIME Cabbage Thoran, there's a great recipe in Vegan Richa's Indian Kitchen but I'm sure there's others online too. Really simple but flavourful!

@dearclarissa I really like Meera Sodha's Celery Peanut wontons, recipe here: https://t.co/akBkZXYMOY

NEW: I’m not sure people appreciate quite how bad the Covid situation is in Hong Kong, nor what might be around the corner.

First, an astonishing chart.

After keeping Covid at bay for two years, Omicron has hit HK and New Zealand, but the outcomes could not be more different.

For many of Hong Kong's underprivileged, 𝗙𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗼 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝘂𝗻𝗴 used to be their last, best hope. In his 12-year career as a lawmaker, he had been a constant advocate of minority rights.

Yesterday a magistrate jailed him for three weeks. Here's what happened:🧵1/11

@bbbajdmaphd @rgay @thekoreanvegan For this I just used a mix of Marks & Spencer Plant Kitchen Mozzarella and Daiya Cheddar. My favourite is Violife Smoked Provolone but it's very expensive here.

[Emily in HK (she/her) @VegSpringRoll]

Made a #vegan version of @rgay's tomato soup and grilled cheese with some @thekoreanvegan cucumber kimchi on the side. Rarely do all 4 family members enjoy a meal I cook, thanks for the win!

[Emily in HK (she/her) @VegSpringRoll]

@maureenjohnson @rgay @thekoreanvegan Try it if you can!

[Emily in HK (she/her) @VegSpringRoll]

@monicakim524 @rgay @thekoreanvegan It was just what I needed!

[Emily in HK (she/her) @VegSpringRoll]

@bridgidry The cucumber kimchi is from The Korean Vegan cookbook, not sure if it's online anywhere.
