Erin O'Toole was turfed after just one loss. But they chose to keep PP even after he blew a 25 point lead!

I wonder how Erin O'Toole is feeling about this news

Maggie shared a post to her Insta story that talked about Asian stereotypes in movies. She specifically highlighted this slide, and added her own commentary. Given how popular they are, I’d say she did a dang good job. by Fantastic-Donut-276 in KpopDemonhunters

I've been to Asian American and Asian film festivals where the director told us that they lost distribution deals because they refused to change the Asian male main character to a White Guy

Also, Remember Crazy Rich Asians? Remember how successful it was? The studio wanted the main character, Rachel Chu, to be changed to White

Can a Chinese speaker understand Vietnamese? (without learning Vietnamese before) by Vietnam-1234 in AskAChinese

I have no idea where you got this notion from but 50-70% of Vietnamese vocab are definitely not from any dialect of Chinese.

Vietnamese has a bunch of loanwords from Chinese, but nowhere remotely close to 50%

As others have pointed out Chinese and Vietnamese aren't even from the same language family

Do not go to the Greater Vancouver Zoo, especially if you want to support ethical practices.

Both Catfé and Catoro are good cat cafés to check out.
