An excerpt from "cultural revolution cooking" by Sasha Pang. Read more below.

mother says famine
I say what

take the red scissors from the shed
and seek the tooth of lion
dent de lions
dandelions
maybe you like the bitter taste
maybe you are starving

Wow. This is so true... Let's all be less hard on ourselves as writers, artists and people 🥲❤️

Also, having a difficult summer counts as writing.

Hang in there. You’re not alone. You’ll find the words.

The momentum behind Palestinian liberation was so high but sadly its slowing down. Reminds me of the momentum behind police abolition after the murder of George Floyd and how it died down. Organizers never stopped doing the work btw. Y’all just stopped caring.

"Filthy little f*cking ch*nk" were the words @TonyHinchcliffe used to describe @pengdangcomedy. He complimented the slur with a beautiful and authentic Asian accent.

Racism against Asians is all too normalized. Comedy does not mean resorting to racism.

Apologize now. Do better.

[Peng Dang @pengdangcomedy]

Last week in Austin, I got to bring up Tony Hinchcliffe. This is what he said. Happy Asian (AAPI) Heritage Month!
