In this article, I take a look at the major flashpoints defining US-ROK relations today, what they mean for the partnership, and opportunities for the future. Thank you to the wonderful folks at @9DashLine for asking me to write this piece!

So incredibly grateful and in awe of my wonderful co-author @ka_grieco! Our report on a critical threat to U.S. air bases in the Indo-Pacific just went live today, as did Kelly's fantastic thread on our piece. Check both out below.
I’m excited to share my latest @stimsoncenter report w/ @HunterSlingbaum and Jonathan Walker on why Chinese missile threats U.S. air bases in I-P.

if it is economically feasible for you to do so, do not stop donating!!! the blm movement isn’t over because your instagram feeds aren’t full of blackout tuesday posts

this!!! just knowing this happens is upsetting enough, but there’s a chance my gf could end up in the same situation - in which case i’d go even more ballistic. stand up for the trans community and demand a world where cops don’t have power to discriminate against/harm minorities
Otakon has been a blast, and with only one day left, I’m already missing it all. Plus it doesn’t hurt that I’m cosplaying the best mystic messenger character, 707. Excuse my Korean if I look back and it’s horrible but, 오타콘하고 체리츠를 좋아해요! 여러분, 사랑해요 😘
So I may have a teensy tiny obsession with Crazy Ex Girlfriend, but it's justified since @Racheldoesstuff, @alinebmckenna, and their whole team are actual geniuses. Just putting that out there. (All three seasons are on Netflix btw)

Okay, while I still think A Silent Voice was completely robbed, I'm real happy that Made In Abyss won anime of year. Beautiful music, animation, and story <3 I enjoyed MHA, but it won enough awards tonight.
