You are a being of infinite worth. Your worth isn't measured by your productivity, work, or accomplishments.
Productivity is not the rent we pay to exist in this world. As a gift to yourself & others, please start recognizing the inherent, infinite worth of simply being alive.
@jubunnies For me, the hardest part is getting data. I am willing to take some risks, but it was easier to understand the risks when I knew the #covid #'s in my county, and which weeks to make certain to mask, which weeks to stay home. I'm struggling to find those numbers now.
Any ideas?
Thinking of my sister today. Harvard was a singular obsession with my mom during my childhood and it became my sister’s singular obsession throughout her short life. It became my own source of insecurity as a 2.8 GPA Asian (we exist) who sucked at math and standardized tests.
Maybe it’s a Gen X thing but she never once felt entitled to Harvard or worried that someone else would “take her spot” because she was in competition with herself.
Needless to say, losing her impacted our whole family. In our own ways we all stopped giving a fuck about Harvard.
So hello AAPI. I get where the obsession for elite schools as access points to the American Dream comes from. Been there, done that.
All this to say this obsession with elite schools without understanding this country’s history makes first generation immigrants easy targets for Edward Blum and friends without knowing who he even is.
It’s in their interest to see their fear of “demographic change” fighting each other for scraps because the idea of a more inclusive society for all is happening and it means a loss of control.
This is what this SCOTUS win for them was about. So feel how you want but just know that being used as a model minority tool is a choice.
@MerriamWebster Shout out for the best homophones thread ever made:
https://t.co/AxbDh9N9qf
@MerriamWebster did this for a whole year.
Honestly this should be made into a poster.
Or at least sometimes redone, with a hashtag. Like #HomophonesByMW. (Or just #Homophones)
@doufudanshi Yes! This is the big things I tell people about that laundry and taxes line. I think the Chinese meaning is better. If there is another life after this one, I would *still choose* taxes and laundry, with you.

A new year can sometimes feel like a lot of pressure to make big things happen! But you don’t have to make big plans or resolutions if you don’t want to! Live your life the way you want, and make changes at a pace and style that works for you! 💛

Absolutely Everything that Everyone else has said about #KeHuyQuan this @Variety video but... does anyone else get @StarTrek vibes with the command track mustard yellow and black boots, plus the #JamesKirk posture in the chair?
