Happy Columbus Day!
What a great day! Today, we can again celebrate Christopher Columbus and his legacy of exploration, faith, and courage without dreading that woke rioters will topple statues, deface monuments, or cry racism. I don’t speak for others. But no matter the imperfections of the Western civilization, I’m still infinitely grateful to be an American and […]

Love in the Clouds: Eps 1 to 10 Open Thread
Thanks @ibisfeather for recommending this cdrama. I’m enjoying it because of the heroine, Ming Yi, played by Lu YuXiao. She’s both funny and unconventional at conniving her way out of trouble. Although she must masquerade as a fairy, she isn’t a boring damsel-in-distress like that Esther Yu’s character in “Love Between the Fairy and the […]

Ms. Incognito: Eps 1 & 2 My Notes
In the “What Are You Watching” thread for October, I wrote my first impression. @ibisfeather recommended this kdrama. I noted: I’m 30 minutes into the first episode of “Ms. Incognito.” So far, it’s moving pretty quickly and I haven’t identified major tropes yet. But then, I don’t often get to watch pseudo-thrillers like this. My […]
