Nice read. Quite touching that his father genuinely tried making a connection to his son, despite the distance, both culturally and physically.

I subscribed to the New Yorker recently, and I have to say that it's been nice reading more long-form content that has an ending. There are just a few stories everyday, and every week there's a new issue to read through. And of course the decades-long backlog of stories, profiles, and journalism to go through.

This was an entertaining read, until it struck so many cords on immigrant life and kind of became surreally relatable.

On the publications, I recently re-subscribed to WSJ after a long time (grad school was the last time I read it regularly). Don’t know if it’s the awful app hiding good content, but I can’t seem to find anything even remotely worth keeping the subscription at full price next year…

My favorites are the New Yorker and Harper's. I read both at the local library to save money (I like reading paper copies)

When my paper issue comes, I go straight to the table of contents to see what’s in store for the week. Like a kid in a candy store.
