FB reminded me that 10 years ago today, I sat through a 9am Friday morning talk on why Inside Out was an egregious affront to affective science. Coincidentally we also discussed emotion and culture in my grad seminar this week. My students got a taste of my Northeastern affective science training 🤪

The Asian trope of quiet, demure, model minority is so wrong because we are literally out here drumming, screaming, dancing, protesting all the time. We are loud AF.

Reading about rice theory while desktop background was randomly set to a Chinese rice field (it changes daily). The biggest psych difference between rice vs wheat Chinese cultures is that my Northern Chinese friends will never finish their rice when we go out to eat (and I always finish theirs) 😂

In Boston briefly so I met up with my grad school advisor Judy Hall for breakfast. At 78 and retired, Judy is still healthier, more energetic, and wayyyy more prolific than 35 yo me with bad back, hair loss, and low energy 😂

Giving an informal talk next week to SISPP students (Summer Institute in Social & Personality Psych) in one of the courses. Thought I would make it more interesting than my usual research talk. But the real question is, can I show up in t-shirt and shorts because it's summer!?

Just read this chapter by @vietthanhnguyen.bsky.social on Palestine and Asia. You ever finished something and just whisper “fuckkkk” to yourself? That last passage was simply 🤯
The excerpt is here (and the book To Save and To Destroy is amazing): vietnguyen.info/2024/the-nat...

It’s the last week of AAPI Heritage month. There’s still time to be unapologetically Asian 😂 I’m currently revising a paper on Asian-Black relations in a Kazakh coffee shop. I’m reading Viet Thanh Nguyen’s To Save and To Destroy. Earlier this month, I went to book talks by OiYan Poon and Ocean Vuong

The top is giving “I’m a real researcher about to give a v serious talk on Black-Asian relations” but the socks are giving “I’m a man child and dunno why people take me seriously and I just wanna play video games after this talk”
