Southeast Asian in California. I once worked at an aquarium. Now I write, publish, speak, and consult about product management and AI ethics. My hobby is having hobbies. I write about food, immigrant life, pets, steel bikes, film photography. I post photos of cats and octopus.

Remember how yesterday I said my fave bánh mì spot in the Tenderloin is at a place that’s more like a Vietnamese senior community center, that I’m not sure I can recommend coz it’s hard to order without Vietnamese? This is what it looks like. I love this place. #TootSea #Vietnam #SanFrancisco #MakanApaToday #BayAreaEats #BAE image

One of the weirdest things about American life to me, as an adult immigrant, is how the rest of the world really doesn’t exist for most people. Not in popular imagination or daily life; and for a few people who are internationally aware, only Europe and Japan really exists. I understand that’s how superpowers work, but my brain (attuned to at least regional then later global politics and culture) is really struggling to adapt. I really have to go out of my way to hear about the world.
