Ahahaha.
So many typos… lol
and/or who would just like to go on a date… (non of my situation things are on here, so I can be tired and ridiculous and get on a plane for 12hours and not worry about replies)
Am very tired and in transit in Singapore after a lovely trip - for work, but also fun - to Bali. And a Balinese astrologer told me to manifest, but out in the world a core desire. And honestly, all I can think is: is it possible for me to fancy someone who is emotionally available?
Guest edited the special East and Southeast Asian June issue of Ocado Life and it’s a doozy ✨ feat a mega line up @annasulan.bsky.social on the msg beat, Helen Goh's Chinese-bakery-style chiffon sponge and Shu Shan Lee's late-night saviour meals. Pick one up today! www.ocado.com/products/oca...
Hahahaha
There is such an obsession with eating protein… I looked up what I should eat (a short, but well rounded woman in 40s). It’s like - 2 eggs, a pot of yogurt, and a flat white. And maybe throwing in a bit of cheese.
I’m enjoying all the Beyonce concert pics. But, and I don’t want to be mean, prince harry cannot pull of a cowboy hat.

Beautiful display near the Norrington Room at @blackwelloxford.bsky.social of #IamNotaTourist and books by @annasulan.bsky.social, Vera Chok and @jennywcreative.bsky.social! Many thanks to James and team! Don’t think I’ll ever tire of seeing my book in a shop 😍
This was fascinating, season on Margate Thatcher. Also, I think as someone not from the UK podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/l...
Robert Reich post: If the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour.
May Day Reminder:
The Federal Minimum Wage - in the richest country EVER - is still only $7.25/hr.
UNACCEPTABLE.
For your weekend pleasure… my blog! Where I pour thoughts (sometimes after a few martinis), mostly made from the notes in my notes app. Often about media, identity, food… my latest is opinion about Jamie Oliver just keeps being a bit of a dick… asm-talkingaboutfood.blogspot.com
One of the things I love about this country. There is always a way to get out of an awkward conversation. Bring up the weather! It’s a cliche, but it always works.
I think it’s actually something like 10mil registered. 10mil to 20. Wild.
The Great Mughals: Art, Architecture and Opulence - fantastic!!! Ends in a couple of days, and is very crowded. But such beautiful art. Have drunk the kool aid, want to be ruled by emperors… who invest in diverse art, from divers backgrounds.
🥳🥳🥳🥳
On this Labour Day… I definitely need work. Pls hire me [sending manifesting vibes] - for freelance work. Writing, editing, anything… dear god the rise in household bills is wild!
Sorry for spamming RT (or whatever it’s called here!) Have decided I want to be part of the gang!

Happy publication day to @annasulan.bsky.social! Was so happy to get my copy in the post today ❤️ can’t wait to read this!
🎧 Catching up on the new series of the Lecker #podcast: To Be Delicious, hosted and produced by @annasulan.bsky.social and co-produced by Lucy Dearlove. I love the mix of research, interviews, and the gorgeous soundscapes that are unique to Lecker. Highly recommended!
Whenever people in tv show or films are up in the middle of the night because they can’t sleep… it doesn’t ring true. What do you mean you aren’t just lying in bed in panic, stewing about how you need to sleep, like a normal person?!

Had a blast with @annasulan.bsky.social, @jennywcreative.bsky.social and Vera Chok today at @blackwelloxford.bsky.social for our panel talk! Great conversation and fabulous audience! Thank you to everyone who joined us ❤️
Every year I can’t believe how wholesome this is (more and more borderline cringe) and yet, I cry each time.
Watching Call the Midwife. To me, this tv is enormous! (I don’t have a tv). And the sunset is sooooo lovely! And puzzle started today
Mostly ads about tv shows like about Gypsy Rose… but also, just stuff.
In Aotearoa, watching scheduled tv (is that what’s it’s called?!) with ads and it means I’m googling a ton of things… I’m so out of the loop of popular culture.
An utterly damning and horrific image.
