I've read this one multiple times and am still not over it. So good!

This is my alma mater, and I can't stop thinking about how student reporters at the Herald have been so diligently updating everyone to keep them safe -- and how absent that integrity and care is elsewhere.

I actually couldn't stop scrolling -- so good!

Thank you! ❤️

My family grew up in, around, and apart from Shanghai.

Sometimes, I think about the skyscrapers --- how as I grew, they grew with me. People didn't use to praise Shanghai, but now if they do, it's to talk about how modern it is.

I love Shanghai.

But every so often I wonder whether our idea of modernization looks an awful lot like Westernization. If as a kid, in more ways than one, I learned the wrong lessons about infinite growth.
