She was also the person that wrote the New Yorker piece on Chapo handling Trump's election that became more well known for its illustration. You know the one.

That painting always distracted people from the real highlight of that articlequote:(After meeting Texas, I had assumed that he had some Asian heritage. When I texted him to ask if I could describe him as Asian-American, he explained that he didn’t “self-ID” as such, but that he “wouldn’t be offended” if I did.)

The whole Jia affair today reminds of Alex Tizon’s posthumous essay—they couldn’t be any more different in circumstances, but both are bound by the grand narrative of diaspora. Immigration is a merciless thing, more so when white people crush you without understanding nuance. tbh I’m so sad she had to write this today and what this could do to her parents. Maybe reclaiming their narrative will prove stronger than the doxxing

Given that Cushbomb made fun of her for it just now, I doubt she'll have an easy time on that. Hey he kind of started doing more streams in the house now that his neighbours told him off for it. Surprised he didn't have to do that before. Kunster has issued a correction as of 16:44 on May 21, 2020 |

Why aren't the Chapo boys brave enough to support Abdel Fattah el-Sisi , a social democrat who can actually win a national election I demand a candidate who can equally throw axes at a bar as well as a kunai nimbly tucked under a sleeve or perhaps worn as a hair ornament

When the Tizon story was first published, Tolentino tweeted a bunch about how conflicted the story made her feel as a Filipino, but now I guess we know the real context.
