Alysa Liu is living proof that if you are starved, deprived of breaks, rest, water, and forced to compete in pain to be considered successful there is and will always be another way.

Alysa Liu's gold is a gift not only to the United States, but to all Asians who can now tell their parents that in order to come back and win, she had to fire her overbearing manager-dad and do things her own way.

Every year, the U.S. government magically finds trillions for war, for banks, for tax cuts for the richest people alive. But when it comes to healthcare? Housing? Student debt? Elder care? Suddenly there’s “no money.” That phrase is a political weapon. It’s used to kill hope

the same happened in Africa. Brits encouraged Syrian/Lebanese/Indian trading class while forbidding Black people anything but manual labor. That’s how Zohran’s folks ended up in Uganda. They knew this would breed resentment between the two classes and help shield them. The same

A reminder that no matter how many videos of ICE abuses appear online - whether of killings, or innocent kids assaulted, or US citizens wrongly detained - a chunk of America, a big chunk of Trump’s base, is not just totally fine with it, they want it, enjoy it, revel in it. The

Love the Alysa Liu story because it's anti striverslop. Obviously had to overcome a lot but is seemingly uninterested in romanticizing the struggle. Yeah work hard and don't give up haha anyways isn't this so fun and exciting? Just a chillmaxxing spiritmogger with nothing to
