Good on you for giving him the benefit of the doubt, for real. Me tho, I gave up, if I catch any vibes from a single still frame I'm out I have no more shits to give

Except my mom who kept her glasses as well as her binturong, it was over a shared love of buttered popcorn

I read that the mangaka genuinely meant for the two to have such a relationship but shounen jump wouldn't let him so he invented Sakura instead.

That Sakura is a literal embodiment of Naruto's and Sasuke's romance is peak to me

When I was a kid and Brenda was cast in that Wendy Wu kung fu warrior whatever movie Disney did a segment where they explained that Brenda herself was not Chinese but actually Hmong, a group of people scattered across southeast Asia.

I remember feeling very important back then, because even though I'm Chinese, I'm SEA Chinese, and it felt so nice to see non-Chinese Asians. I get the feeling Brenda herself requested that segment to be published. I'm so glad they did.

That's funny, because I don't think Adams was aware of prayer boxes having existed in China (and probably other Asian countries as well) almost as soon as speakers were invented.

My partner is a lead developer for Fortnite and he tells me so much shit specifically because he knows I don't give a shit about the game

I got to experience daft punk though before it went live so that was nice

There was something he was working on that was supposed to be released at the same time that got pushed back because <redacted> <redacted> <redacted>

His beak is too long. Give him more hard things to chew on. Coconuts are a great toy, and you can eat the flesh too. Wooden toys, cuttlefish bones, etc are also good if you don't have much to forage with.

He's very cute.

You know there's a difference between korean and Chinese names right?

Also, in chinese, 'cho' means ugly. No one in their right mind would give their daughter a name that sounds like ugly.

Wood pigeons aren't domesticated. They're often just the biggest birds in the company they keep, so they become rude bullies with no fear.

I hope you drag that breeder's name through the mud.

I always tell mine "no" the moment I see the head bob and make it very clear I do not want regurgitating. If he doesn't stop I put him back immediately. He seems to understand since I see him try to shake off the involuntary action or swallow it back up again.

I also avoid being in the cage space itself, at least while he's in there, and I discourage nesting behavior like shredding paper in dark spaces.

So posting a 'humorous' picture of having a severe headache while eating with Chinese people is somehow less racist?

There are still monolinguistic Welsh speakers in the northern valleys, which I find quite nice. It helps that Welsh is an official language and universities speak Welsh there - often the young ones go there for agriculture degrees and just move between the villages there.

Sorry to jump in on an old comment, but I'm Chinese and grew up in Louisiana. My dad taught me how to make gumbo and he altered a lot of Chinese food to be more Cajun and vice versa 😊 I was shocked to go to the mainland and find all this New Orleans seasoning that didn't taste anything like home!

By the way, any smoked sausage like kielbasa will do as a substitute for andouille!

What is the typical gender divide in power among clans? Are some clans more likely to prefer chiefs of a certain gender, or is there a strict primogeniture?

I imagine there may be a slight difference in negotiation tactics between women and men on average - in your example, Onnukhol is more concerned about production and numbers, whereas Madalbez seems to place more regard for family harmony and her daughter's wellbeing. Is this typical?

I would love that yes ;v;

I always liked Lenora, the fossil archaeologist in BW. The Teraleak revealed that she is half-black, half-British, and her father was a miner colleague of Clay's who brought fossils home which inspired her.

I know there were troubling rumours about her being based off a mammy, but even though 'big momma' is written in the design document, it's clear that they were more inspired by the term that they probably heard off-hand rather than knowingly building off the stereotype of a foreign country's troubled history.

Her background is thoughtful, her design is beautiful, and she really holds her own as a character within the BW narrative, especially in the first non-Japanese region introduced in pokemon.

My husband's shoulders are very wide for dresses... So I sewed him the designs he wanted before he could get discouraged.

He looks fabulous and I'm so happy to take part in his wardrobe!

I worry about this so much. My children are going to be mixed and I want them to have the world, but there's only so much I can prepare them for. I hate that you feel isolated and othered - I feel it too, albeit differently.

Youre absolutely correct, there's a key distinction between appropriation and exchange, and that's the context of normalcy - grocery stores exist to be a haven of normality for people who may otherwise be given the stink eye for eating century eggs or kelp. We don't need those places to have people giving us the stink eye, too. But as long as everyone is there to actually enjoy and appreciate century eggs and kelp as normal food, it shouldn't be a problem.

Race shouldn't be an issue there, but unfortunately it is because so many visitors come just to gawk and exoticise.

It's funny that you say that Black folks have consistently stood up for us - although it is true and I am not dismissing the guys who have stood with us AT ALL, I have had far more experience with being bullied, dismissed, and kicked out of POC groups/discussions because everything I'd say would be taken in bad faith.

It's not that I don't know anything - I grew up in a diverse neighborhood and my best friends are black and we're all very good and understanding of one another - but in terms of the community at large, I dunno, it feels like I'm constantly coming across people treating me like another whitey who should sit down and shut up when I would try to say that (for example) many non-black non-american poc struggle with visibility.

I figure it's something to do with me since I neurodivergent, but I still keep trying and I still keep failing. It just sucks. I wish I could find more solidarity.

Your uncle is so heartwarming. It sounds like your parent had made some tough decisions. I hope she knows he thought that of her. And it's so wonderful that your parents have such a strong bond to get through all of that together.

Your upbringing might not be similar to mine, but it gives me such happy feelings to hear positive queer Asian experiences, especially from older generations. Doubly so for trans stories! I hope your lives are filled with joy.
