"The Hollywood Reporter spoke with eight of The Sympathizer’s Vietnamese cast members in a group conversation below that revealed that, although they all share the same ethnicity, they are diverse in age, nationality and experience, together forming a living account of the modern Vietnamese diaspora — what it has been through, and what it is like now."
"Last Saturday, I was at a community gathering of around 30 Vietnamese immigrants, all in their 50s and 60s, in Oakland, California, when I asked if anyone knew anything about AI or artificial intelligence.
None of them had ever heard of it...And in this room full of elders from my community, the Vietnamese community, no one knew about it, which meant no one knew to look for it."
I had a great Sunday with my friend, Sarah! She came over earlier. We did mini home spa treatments. I did full skincare spoils for her because she doesn't treat herself to spa facial treatments & deserves some pampering. Afterwards, we went to the outdoors expo, at Juan de Fuca Rec.
Just got back home & am relaxing as my #Vietnamese#BòKho (beef stew) finishes simmering. I put it on slow cook before going to expo.
Using less water & using a #drone to fertilize are new techniques that Van is trying & #Vietnam hopes will help solve a #paradox at the heart of #GrowingRice : The finicky crop isn’t just vulnerable to #ClimateChange but also contributes uniquely to it.

Day off. Plans are to get caught up on seeds sowing, get food transplants into beds/bigger pots (2 pea types & loganberries), aerate composts, sift soil & prep pots.
Going for a nature walk nearby, after tasks are done. Lovely sunny morning; it'll be a beautiful day 🌞😎
I don't like how other places here make them. My fave place to buy is on Main St. in Vancouver Chinatown. I don't remember name of the place, know it by sight. My family bought from there since 80s & it's run by Teochew ppl from Cholon, Saigon, Vietnam. I can speak Teochew there; very few ppl speak my language in BC.

Please enjoy this #music playlist - filled with #Vietnamese#RockNRoll songs from 1968-1974. There was always a huge music scene in #Saigon & wartime didn't stop the musicians. More songs were inspired from the horrors of war. Bands kept performing wherever they could. My big Auntie told me about music jams in tunnels by resistance musicians too.
Music kept people going, when bombs kept falling. Music helped people survive war horrors.
[My Loved Local Food] Bánh tráng kẹp: Crispy Rice Paper 'Vietnamese Pizza.' You can find many of these under the name Bánh tráng nướng on the Internet. However, I am not sure if they are the same or not. Is it Banh Trang kẹp or Bánh tráng nướng? #Vietnamese
