Just in case you might have been wondering (although you probably haven't) - yes - I have actually been away for the last few days which accounts for the lack of posts, time shifts, world hunger (I have no idea where that popped up) - and yes - it was kind of nice to be unplugged for a little while - but only for a little while - because in the end - we all need to be plugged in.

The slantyapolis blog (formerly SEFTRE) has served millions of views to 500K-1M+ individuals, trying to help in its own way, to give voice to the Asian and Asian American community, as well as document it, over the last 17 years. Sometimes op-ed, sometimes straight news, sometimes off the beaten path--the continued impetus remains that there's power in sharing voices and in sharing your own voice and reflecting that back into the communities you belong to.
