Welcome again to everybody! Make yourself at home. In the time-honored tradition of our group, grab yourself a bevrage of your choosing and relax for this weeks, weekly discussion thread. Oh and have a pleasant Vietnamese Family Day

P.S. if anyone can explain how this photo came up with the search term “Vietnamese Family Day” I would love to know

    One thing I like to do when I eat alone is to watch food tours from all over the world, especially on channels like The Food Ranger. It’s a nice way to learn about different cultures and in a weird way it makes me emotional. Like, today I watched a video about an Iranian street food tour and everyone in the video is so nice and friendly and smiling and welcoming, which is such a stark contrast with how our media portrays countries like Iran. This whole world view of dehumanizing other countries gets shoved in our faces constantly and it makes me sad that these people can’t do anything about it.
