I’m so grateful the therapy dogs happen to be staying at my hotel which funny enough is called the Comfort Inn. The handlers said they understand journalists have it hard too. They offered me a #cuddlepuddle. Thank you @K9ComfortDogs It really did help! #selfcare#caninelove
One last story for #aapiheritagemonth. Reflection on Filipinos' role in workers rights in wake of César Chavez revelations promotes Filipino lawyers in Hawaii to raise legacy of Pablo Manlapit, forgotten leader of Hawaii labor movement.

Noticed #colbert final episode made no mention of Trump beyond allusions when orange skin tone came up. All the focus was on the machine that's been @colbertlateshow
I didn't post about this right away cuz still processing that people who I collaborated with from several states away are just <poof!> gone. Been going about with mixed emotions of sadness, ire, etc. I'm going to be thinking about them and the loss of talent for a long time.

On May 15, Associated Press leadership cut 20 guild covered staff. Layoffs included U.S. news, photographers, investigations, business and sports across 12 states.
I was the reporter let go in Oklahoma. It was only surprising because the Thunder are in the playoffs and the Women's CWS is coming up. I have great memories of my time here and of my colleagues. Thank you all for following me. As for media, if you're looking for help, hit me up.
Thanks to @uclaaasc for talking to me exclusively ahead of launch of this cool online AAPI history textbook. Full circle for me, a @UCLA grad who took Asian Am Studies class. #aapiheritagemonth

Anti-Asian hate attacks still less compared to COVID-peak @AAPIData@AP Norc poll finds. But racism has shifted from COVID tropes to anti-immigrant rhetoric. Thanks @StopAAPIHate also. Unfortunately, not the most cheerful story for #AAPIheritagemonth.

You've been asking for this one for years. We heard you.
We announced a change in AP style at the @ACESEditors conference today: It's now healthcare, one word, in all uses.
We also changed childcare and daycare, closing them up to one word rather than two.
This guidance is live on AP Stylebook Online now.
George Ariyoshi, who became governor of Hawai'i and hence, the US' first Asian American governor, has died at age 100. Respect and RIP.

@AP is doing a series highlighting objects that are seen as American icons for #america250. My dog inspired me to pitch the teddy bear. 🧸It seems like a rite of passage that every child should have one.

More AAPI adults are souring on Trump's handling of immigration compared to a survey in December 2024, where feelings were evenly split.

President Trump says he’s “glad” Mueller is dead.
I saw #mueller in person once. He came to Tucson the day after the Giffords shooting and came to the news conferences. He spoke as necessary. Was far from a showboat. RIP.

Is anyone else getting fatigued of hearing Goo Goo Dolls' Iris because the algorithm keeps sending you "Dad/Mom, what were you like in the '90s?" videos?
Krysten Sinema's motion to dismiss the suit against her for having an affair with her married bodyguard is wild. Not because she admits to the affair (she does) but because she admits to buying him and his family tickets to a Taylor Swift show (which she attended with them) while having the affair.
