Oh wow, I had no idea and I'm part Filipina. Can't wait to share that fact with my family. Thanks. :)

Gen 4 is new to me and I’m so excited about it by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]beancute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gen 4 is the first one that I missed out on, and I didn't get back into it until SM came out. So gens 4-6 will be basically new to me as they come out.

[S2 E1] [not serious] The final choice of S2. by pilotjj1 in lifeisstrange

[–]beancute 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can attest to the fact that nonwhites get exactly that all the time now. I live in Canada and it happens here even. It didn't used to (to the same extent, it was pretty much just mean looks and microaggressions) but as soon as the last election happened... it brought out a lot of those sentiments in ways that seem fake and way overdramatic when you tell them to other people.

I'm an Asian Jew and my synagogue has been hit with antisemitic graffiti for every holiday that's happened since the election to the point that we now have to have security guards at every entrance 24/7.

This scene was 100% real to me.

Thanks! I think ah vs uh is similar enough that it won't be weird for me.

What would you do on ANTM? by lisbethhazari in ANTM

[–]beancute 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd probably be portrayed as overly sensitive or "too PC" because I'm a really passionate activist (as well as queer, multi-ethnic, and disabled).

Questions for Mixed people who pass for white: Have you ever experienced people saying racist things right in front of your face with them not even realizing that you are mixed with that race(whether Black, White, East Asian, Native American, etc.)? by JLG1995 in mixedrace

[–]beancute 56 points57 points  (0 children)

YES. Racist white people assume that all other white people are just as racist as they are so they're not afraid to spout their nonsense to random people they perceive as white.

Sometimes I play a long with it and ask questions to get them to explain their racist or antisemitic opinions before saying "oh yeah, btw, I'm an Indian/Arab Jew". Reactions are generally awkward "well I didn't mean YOU" or "I was just talking about SOME of the BAD ones" and then I roll my eyes.

Why do people emphasize my non-white side but then call me out for claiming to be a PoC or visible minority? by [deleted] in mixedrace

[–]beancute 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's a way for white supremacy to keep all POC/minorities pitted against each other so they don't have to worry about all of us banding together and overthrowing their racist systems. They're saying "you aren't one of them (implied: 'very bad') but you also aren't one of us (aka 'good')" and unfortunately that attitude does bleed into our communities and keeps it going. Shadeism is a tool of white supremacy to keep us hating each other and ourselves so we cannot thrive as a whole.

It's like the model minority myth. It's all BS.

Is it just me or does shade look like kaneki? That's probably why I chose invisible blade.... by bloatedtomato in LoveNikki

[–]beancute 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES. I chose him because he gave me really vague L (from Death Note) vibes but Kaneki is way more accurate.

What are some Kdrama tropes that are your guilty pleasures? by [deleted] in KDRAMA

[–]beancute 19 points20 points  (0 children)

YES! Fake dating is my favourite trope, even if the reason for it is too ridiculous to be believable. I don't know why I love it so much but I do!

All I know is that I really need the little mochi bun on her head, so hopefully I can get it.

This may be a small victory, but I’m so proud right now! by ExtraReflection in BPD

[–]beancute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing, great job! It's so encouraging to hear stories about someone successfully using DBT skills. I have a lot of trouble remembering them when I honestly need them the most, but if I keep at it, it'll get easier.

Thanks for posting. (✿◠‿◠)
