So, nearly 17 years ago, the one and only time I've been to Japan, at a riverside bar in Kyoto I had this bar snack: renkon nikuzume - meat stuffed lotus root. It was so good. I've thought of it constantly for years. But this is not a common dish even in Japan, let alone here

My first tweet of 2021 is going to be about 1 dose vs. 2 dose vaccine. I have tweeted in the past of the immunological advantages of a 2 dose vaccine. However, given the enhanced transmission variants on the rise, we need a modified strategy. (1/n)

With all the loneliness out there, I wanted to share a love story about two people I've never met. The story begins with a book, and that book begins:

1. It’s devastating to witness three of my former colleagues, Joshua, Agnes, Ivan are jailed. The sentencing is absurd. Retweet if you have the same demands:
1.Immediate release of the trio
2.Stop prosecuting under National Security Law
3.Sanction accountable govt officials
