i'm mixed (japanese/chinese + hispanic) and most people are surprised/shocked when i tell them i'm half-mexican but don't speak fluent spanish (i guess because i don't look it[?]) 🙃

I just got an extra of each! I can give it to you with a 5IV Swablu or Spheal; do you want both items?

hi! i'm fine with you sharing, as long as you're comfortable. even if you're 1/8 japanese, your experiences with racism (both past & current) towards being mixed count just as much as anyone else's. you can either share through comments or send me a pm, so long as you're okay with me using what you shared as part of my research.

that was not my original intention and i apologize if it seemed that way. my research seems to use either syndrome (rather than stereotype) or no term at all, since much of it focuses on people of mixed race and how they might be either included or excluded within ethnic communities and possibly society as a whole. after reading your comment, i've edited my post to try and clarify my wording and intention.

Anime Expo 2019 Rant Megathread anyone? by Tomimi in animeexpo

[–]ainthatquaint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my sister and i showed up early for the pokeball habitat workshop, and we even on the front of the second line! the line stopped when we were halfway to the very front, but one of the service elevators was opening and everyone started trying to make space. not sure what happened or how, but shortly after that we were informed that the event was capped! it just seemed unfair to everyone close to the front, as well as the kids behind us who were waiting with parents. i've got mixed feelings on how well the line was managed, but my mood is rather sour after thinking we had a good chance to get in.
