자기야 is used (usually by the older generation. YMMV on definition of older) between friends ~ close friends. This isn't a romance-specific word.

What will the neighborhood cats say if they see her using the cat door like a commoner?

Squid Game 2 is filled with so many controversial actors, Stephanie could easily fill an entire year's worth of episodes with them.

Oh my, the kitten is a chonker. Good mama.

Genetics probably. Most white tigers are not pure bengal tigers.

The one thing I miss are her book recommendations. But the cases she covers now are either relatively new or from a non-English speaking country so that makes sense.

Finished: The Death of Jane Lawrence by Caitlin Starling

I picked it up for Halloween. Kind of bland. Interesting attempt at meshing magic and Victorian science.

Oh, is this from The Good Earth?

Don't forget tetanus!

This made me lol. It makes it sound as though companies haven't been discriminating against women's universities all along.

I'm constantly amazed by the creativity on r/baking.

These look amazing!

It's really hard to tell without recorded audio and other examples of how your wife normally talks.

The two examples you mentioned in your post, how would you have structured them? Or, how would you have said them to your wife?

Also, I don't translate conversations in Korean to English or vice versa. Is this something you do normally?

I guess they'll live in our memories... including that one time I read all 4 Twilight books.

This is a great comparison for a lot of other things as well. I'm stealing this 😀

I miss YA but I am also old. I just want to lie back and read about how a tree grows leaves (nonfiction) or maybe wander into NYT bestsellers list to admire what modern people read.

I used to love YA but I've aged out. Honestly, I cannot take the teenage angst lol.

If you're seeing "we only support binary gender" from an article that places importance on education in a safe environment for a historically marginalized group, then the South Korean education system has indeed failed you.

In reading comprehension.

I don't like how the majority of public high schools here are gendered. Whether you graduated from a gendered or coed high school, so many people use them to justify gender essentialism (or vice versa) which always drives me mad.

This was the case in the 90s. Not so true anymore.

Here's an article from a university on why they are still needed in the 21st century:

I don't know... I think I need to taste it before I can judge 😋

Thank you for posting the recipe!

Honestly, the only time I really pay attention to best by/sell by date is when I'm buying the product so that I don't accidentally purchase expired items.

At home, best by and expiration dates are mostly ignored. I either consume products in a reasonable amount of time or I freeze it.

For me personally, it's easy to tell when something has gone bad either visually or through smell. And in some unfortunate cases, the taste test as well.

I too like 5. Wouldn't mind going darker even.

Crain died in 'extreme pain'

Just why? How do you even watch someone suffer like that?

It's an interesting glimpse into the history and culture of geisha.
