Wow, this media photo op with everyone doing the thumbs up. Wouldn’t it be awesome if they put this much energy and manpower into other things.

Reading this it just occurred to me that there are Taiwanese people out there who have never eaten DTF.

Likely because it’s expensive. Maybe the US equivalent is never having gone to Ruth’s Chris or something?

Taiwan is prob gonna be shutting down from a national case of diarrhea

Lol

A whistleblower employee shared that the meat used by this Taichung restaurant expired last November. Then the inspectors came in.

Maybe whistleblowers need cash rewards for these tips 🤷🏻‍♀️

So grateful to Electric Literature for revealing my cover, designed by the extremely talented Vi-An Nguyen. It's everything I hoped for. Click thru to get more of my thoughts! Book will be out Jan 6, 2025 and preorders are now open. Omg I can't believe it's REAL.

Tomorrow night is the TFCC Annual General Meeting. A sincere thank you to the current committee who worked together to make 2023-2024 so busy and productive for our members. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow!

Active & Innovative

Just remembered I have 2024 calendars from Itoya in Tokyo I haven’t even hung up yet.

Oh…my…god

So…no more phone alerts? Should we check with the algorithm to find out how big an earthquake or aftershock has to be for the alert to be sent?

Taipei City Govt should prob get ahead of more bad news by looking at its entire food safety SOP.

News is getting out. And extra awkward is the fact Singapore’s hawker centers are absolutely spotless.

Restaurant says water quality in the building is to blame. Makes me wonder about food safety requirements in mixed use buildings, and whether city govt does all the required checks and employee training.

Wow — this week’s earthquake on Vogue

Taiwan’s alert system didn’t work well at all this time, but NYC did that hold my beer thing
