I am learning Korean and would like to connect with others who are doing likewise, or with Koreans who speak English. Perhaps we could all help each other gain proficiency. #Korean #Kpop #Kdrama

Does anyone besides me think that Comey is experiencing a hard kick in the pants from Karma for sinking Hillary Clinton's chances in the 2016 election?
For anyone who loves the Korean song Highway in the Gale (질풍가도 (jilpung-gado) ), here's a more poetic translation created by ChatGPT and me.
This looks photoshopped to me.
Does anyone remember pedal pushers and pop tops? These were children's clothing trends in the early 1960's.

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

Phenomenal video, Noah! Thanks for sharing.
Anybody like to play Age of Empires II? I'm out of practice and looking for someone to play against who won't wipe me out in the first half hour.
Are there any Koreans here? I watch a lot of kdramas, and I am curious about the custom of recently graduated doctors asking their mentors to buy them things. What makes this permissible in a respect-oriented culture like Korea's?
#ExpelHoekstra Now

MAGA ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra has lied repeatedly about Trump's threats to annex Canada. He needs to be sent packing.
That's enduring gratitude. Incredibly poignant.
Why is the country not clamoring to impeach Pam Bondi? She is so clearly not following the law, is using lawfare to harass enemies of Trumpism, and is ignoring court orders. It would be much easier to get rid of her than to get rid of Trump.
