  2. Maybe next month, I'll have more spoons to share about why I didn't want to join some local Asian run organizations. Partly because of how many are seemingly OK with never trying to challenge capitalism. Partly because I don't share their lack of compassion/concern for more marginalized folks. I really dislike the queerphobia BS & tolerance of misogynistic crap too. I was also not cool with how some of them were blatantly racist towards Black & First Nations folks. Not OK.
    I am huge on inclusion & support for marginalized folks. I don't bend for those who don't share similar humanitarian mindsets - no matter who they are.

  3. The Gold Coast is done with being 'the Glitter Strip', so what's next?
    By Dominic Cansdale

    The Gold Coast is looking to Texas as it tries to reshape its reputation, but Austin's experience raises a question: can a city reinvent itself without losing the people who made it distinctive?

  4. Late to the Panel: Heritage, Identity, and the Things I Came to Late

    It's Hispanic Heritage Month. And, well, fuck it. I'm Hispanic. More specifically, I'm Salvadoran. I've spent years writing about books, music, science, and whatever else is on my mind, and I almost never talk about this part of myself. It's funny, because I'm no stranger to coming to things late. Coming to It Late I grew up on superhero movies and TV shows. Comics, manga, and anime weren't part of it at first. I got into anime in high school, and I didn't really get into comics and […]

  5. The Heritage I Don’t See in the Media (Or Talk About Enough)

    It's Hispanic Heritage Month. And, well, fuck it. I'm Hispanic. More specifically, I'm Salvadoran. I've spent years writing about books, music, science, and the strange corners of media, and I almost never talk about this part of myself. Being Mixed, Being Ambiguous My heritage is mixed. I'm Salvadoran, but I also have Polish, Austrian, German, and French ancestry. For this post I want to focus on the Salvadoran side, the part I've rarely centered in my writing or my identity. Media has […]

  6. Being a Salvadoran Creator: The Part of My Identity I Don’t Talk About Enough

    It's Hispanic Heritage Month. And, well, fuck it. I'm Hispanic. More specifically, I'm Salvadoran. And despite running a blog about anime, comics, manga, and all sorts of other weird shit, I don't actually talk about that part of myself very much. So today, I am. Because even though this blog is primarily about fictional worlds, characters, stories, and the media I love, the person writing about all of that still exists outside those fictional worlds. And I'm a mixed person. I'm […]

  11. Pacific farmers are reviving traditional knowledge to tackle a changing climate

    Drawing on long-held knowledge, research is helping farmers better adapt to climate challenges like #drought, weed pressure and declining #SoilHealth

    By Associate Professor Dorin Gupta, Dr Viliamu Iese and Dr Sineka Munidasa, University of Melbourne, Dr Leslie Ubaub, University of South Pacific and Associate Professor Soane Patolo, #MORDITongaTrust

    Published 14 August 2026

    Excerpt: " #Taro (Colocasia esculenta) is central to #Samoan diets and #CulturalIdentity and is also an important export crop. It is a carbohydrate-rich staple, consumed both fresh and in processed products like flour, chips, noodles and baby food.

    "Current techniques that use chemical #WeedKillers to grow taro are costly and negatively affect soil health and the surrounding environment.

    "Now, farmers are trialling alternative weed control methods like #mulching and #SheepGrazing, and then comparing these techniques with traditional #HandWeeding in taro cropping.

    "The integration of sheep grazing in particular is a new practice in traditional Samoan taro farming, offering an innovative approach to #WeedManagement.

    "The project has also trialled leguminous #AlleyCropping, another relatively new practice in the region, where fast-growing leguminous trees like #Gliricidia, #Sesbania and #Erythrina are planted to generate biological mulch for #WeedSuppression and #SoilEnrichment.

    "Mr Sala Sagato, the President of the #SamoaFarmers Association, is hosting one of the sites and has championed mulching."

  14. Churchill, AI, and the Limits of Progress

    The religious generation of 19th-century Victorian England, during their lifetime, encountered the scientific vision of cosmic eternity. Likewise, today’s generation of young people in the 21st century is confronted with the challenges of artificial intelligence and the danger of losing the communicative traditions that connected them with previous generations.
