hello, worl-- err.. FEDIVERSE! my first day!
2‑ish months ago, i was contemplating how much i do and DON’T know about cyber security, web dev, devops, etc. those thoughts led to a severe reality‑check / mid‑life‑crisis 😅 so i began a one‑man cyber‑crusade to reclaim my digital privacy, security, freedom and sovereignty, and how one protects and maintains all. along my travels mid‑february, et voila the fediverse! w00t w00t!

Issue #219 of my newsletter is up, titled "Monsters," in which I recall Dad taking 4-year-old me to my first #boxing match in San Francisco. And I consider how anger and fear might inform art. https://jeanvengua.substack.com/p/monsters

I realized recently that when I think of my art projects as "doodles" instead of Projects™️, the perceived stakes go down and mistakes are suddenly tolerable, acceptable even, and I can keep going enough to finish the "doodle"
Now I have a whole *portfolio* of "mistake-riddled doodles"
And also the unhinged audacity to think I can expand that into a mistake-riddled career
Anyway heres todays doodle-in-progress, details in alt 🌾

We came to the US when I was less than a year old. When I was about 6, I came to the wise conclusion that we were in America now and thus had to be "Americans". This was in an age where assimilation into the melting pot (vs. adding additional flavor to the salad) was the norm. So I proudly told my parents about this seismic shift in my diet.
At a Filipino party that weekend, my dad called for me to tell his kababayans (fellow countrymen) the thing I had told him earlier that week. With all eyes on me, I proudly proclaimed, "We're in America now - I'm not eating rice anymore!" The room exploded in laughter and I walked out confused.
That swearing off of rice didn't last long, maybe a couple of days. And as I've gotten older, I've realized that Filipino food - including rice - is an important way for me to stay connected to my roots, and I encourage the younger generations in my family - even as they enjoy food from around the world - to stay connected via our food.
When I'm traveling for days and weeks at a time, I'll regularly seek out a Chinese or Thai restaurant to get some rice. Eat Meditate Live recently spoke about homesick foods. For me, it's rice.
Lately, I've been trying to eat better and have cut down my rice consumption. In the Philippines, rice is served with every meal - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In a Filipino home, there is always cooked rice - either in the rice cooker or in the fridge waiting to be microwaved.
It's quite a shift in mindset to sit down for dinner with a nice piece of salmon or steak and not have rice filling a third or half of the plate. It just feels wrong but I'm getting used to it. As this article suggests, it's often 25% of my plate. And sometimes I skip it altogether. I'm not giving it up again though, it's just too good.

Filipina-Led Reality Show ‘Manila Matriarchs’ Confirms Cast, Includes Singer-Actress Karylle Tatlonghari-Yuzon
#News #BreakingNews #FilipinoAmerican #JCreativeEntertainment #ManilaMatriarchs -
#FilipinoAmerican Chelsea Manalo became the 1st #BlackWoman to be crowned #MissUniversePhilippines.
Born to a #Filipino mother & #AfricanAmerican father, her win was celebrated on SM as helping to “shatter” traditional #BeautyIdeals long held in the country.
Manalo’s win is part of a wider conversation about #diversifying notions of beauty in the #Philippines, a country where certain #WesternIdeals have long persisted, shaped in part by the country’s #colonial past.

CW: uspol, kinda phpol too
I know personally of #Filipino-American relatives in the #US who are #Republicans and likely to vote for #Trump. Which is IMO weird since #Obama gave their (and my) grandma #Obamacare (now #Medicare)... :sagume_think: But whatever, the point is that it's just not just #white people who are voting for Trump, and on top of that they're first-generation immigrants too! :koishtare:
Or I guess you're gonna consider them "white" too because you don't like them? I guess it's true that we #Asians are the schrodinger's whites... Considered "oppressed" and "allies" when convenient, considered "white" and "the enemy" when we dare disagree with the Western "leftists" who aren't first/second/third-generation immigrants. :ablobcateyeroll:
Oh and to be clear I do disagree with their choice. But I couldn't be assed to care about it as a #Filipino living here in the #Philippines because no matter if it's a #Democrat or #Republican you folks vote as president, we still get screwed over by your shitty #foreignpolicy. :seija_coffee:

you’ve probably seen this norman rockwell painting before called “freedom from want,” but did you know that it had an accompanying essay by a Filipino American writer?
the essay was written by Carlos Bulosan, probably the most renowned Filipino American novelist and poet. you can read it here: https://www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2017/12/carlos-bulosans-freedom-want/

Our newsletter includes an excerpt from the oral history interview with Yolanda Barrera, an active member of the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA) in the 1960s. She and her family played a crucial role in the movement in Porterville. We also share a video filmed by Brandon Lien of our visit to Delano, guided by Roger Gadiano and Alex Edillor from the Filipino American National Historical Society's Delano Chapter. #ufw #porterville #delanoca #filipinoamerican

all toots are my own random thoughts, not the CFPB’s nor the 🇺🇸 gov’t. boosts & faves ≠ endorsement.

My uncle Voltaire de Leon introduced me to the writing of Carlos Bulosan when I was younger. I read Bulosan's America is in the Heart and it put me on a path that I have been on ever since; finding my own place in this land that my family adopted and that adopted me.
I was not aware of this piece by Bulosan, a companion to the famous Norman Rockwell painting. His words still ring true today. The struggle of finding our place continues still.
