My book is called ‘MANDALAY: Recipes & Tales from a Burmese Kitchen’ because Mandalay is where my heart lies.
My father and my brothers were all born in Mandalay, and my parents met at Mandalay Medical School.
My tastes, my food, my vocabulary are that of a Mandalay-thu (မန္တလေးသူ - ‘Mandalayan’).

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

Real Betis have created the most inventive and unlikely tribute to David Lynch (truncated version here) to announce their new signing. Sadly, the player isn't worthy of such great work

Apple has opted iOS and MacOS users into an AI photo scanning feature which tries to extract landmarks from your photos called Enhanced Visual Search by default with little notice.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe has put the famous Trinity statue outside Old Trafford behind a paywall. A barrier has been erected around the depictions of Best, Law and Charlton, with pay-per-view holes available to sneak a peek at the club's glorious past. These 'glory holes' will help the club comply with PSR

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.
