Today marks ten years since this infographic back page about the Kowloon Walled City was published by South China Morning Post. I explained in a few lectures the ins and outs of this project, and now I will do it here. Long 🧵

A security guard tailed me on my walk home tonight. He demanded if I lived there because “you look suspicious.” I showed my keys & buzzed myself into my building. He left, no apology. This is the reality of black girls: One day you’re called an icon, the next day, a threat.

@DulangaJay I miss that too. Or bumping into people you know at random flights/airports.

Recently, I have been reflecting on how the #coronavirus pandemic has impacted #interculturalexchange, with student exchanges, travels, and global getting-together nearly all having come to a standstill.

[Robin Albrecht @robinyeea]

@DulangaJay Don't you think that's a bit dramatic?

[Robin Albrecht @robinyeea]

Very interesting to read the whole thread

I feel like doing a thread on #HK place names and the absolute treasure trove of cool historical snippets of 1800s #Cantonese that we can see in their romanizations bc not enough ppl talk abt this

also I miss Hong Kong a lot so this is an excuse to look at pics of HK :^)

@DulangaJay Do you miss Communal now?

Teenage TikTok users and K-pop fans claimed to have registered potentially hundreds of thousands of tickets for President Trump's campaign rally as a prank to ruin the event. https://t.co/vrbtgSa27T

Hard to express my joy and gratitude right now as I completed my Philosophy, Politics and Economics degree at Oxford. I don’t know what’s ahead. For now, it will be Netflix, reading and sleep. 😴
