Can anyone recommend a really good Figma course online? I did the LinkedIn leaning one, looking to dive in deeper. TIA

I got offer from T** and the T&C is absolutely insane. It's most absurd and completely vague. It's fully designed to go in favour of the organization and none of the T&C are laid out clearly. I feel like their T&C are more of a slave ownership than an offer letter. Can someone confirm this?

Any store recommendation for custom made suits? Budget is $2k and preferably in NYC.

Mulan was such a good movie! I laughed and I cried. I loved the way they portrayed mushu and overall loved what the movie represented. If you’re boycotting mulan, what you’re actually doing is boycotting feminism as that’s what the movie represents not one actress’s ideals.

Does anyone have recommendations for self-improvement books written by Asians/Asian-Americans? By self-improvement, I mean any book that has caused you to reflect or positively impacted your life to include philosophy or leadership.

What would you do? I live in a town home neighborhood, & the neighbor 2 doors down has a guest that blocks my driveway/parks in my spot, which is against HOA rules & makes it impossible for me to get out of my garage. I & the neighbor next door have spoken with them but they still do it. I went & took a pic of the car to send to the HOA & she came out & said “she’s moving her car you stupid ass B.” The hostility, poor manners & ghetto demeanor is just so off-putting. What would you do?

Hello fellow Asian consultants. I’ve been mulling over trying to organize a get together for networking/fun but something a bit more purposeful as well...

I'm terrible at saying no, so instead I just say yes or be ambiguous enough that people take it as a yes. And I think it's taking a toll on my work recently. What's your advice? I'm afraid saying no is going to make the other person “lose face”, thus hurting our relationship.

I always find it weird when people ask if I’ve watched something on Netflix and I always say no since I mostly watch Asian dramas. Can’t even say I watch “foreign films” since that implies European

Any Teochew on here?! I am a lone teochew in the east coast and I heard others exist but havent actually met another besides one family who lives near me

Looking at how confident white males are on average regardless of actual talent or competency, I really wish I could be like that. (East Asian female here)
