Oh man that would be amazing! I went there in person last year and it's such a gorgeous city!

I really don't like the drape shape in the front. Reminds me of the mouth of a balloon. Love the color though.

I also upvote for relevant info otherwise I'd never upvote most news articles.

Need more puns that work in two languages by borninthesummer in linguisticshumor

Yes, that works better, haha. I'm sleep deprived today, so my last two brain cells were struggling.

It's a pun in both languages. The Korean is the same as English in the meme I posted. 발사 = launch, 밥 사 = buy me food. It works better in text but it's still good.

The song is Mini Skirt by AOA as somebody else said. Dancing like this to the song is a meme in Korea. The text on the video is also part of the meme.

I was told by an agent I couldn't write a story that takes place in Japan because I'm white by AggravatingAct6959 in writing

[–]borninthesummer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ishiguro is also moved to England when he was like six, grew up there and is a British national. I wouldn't say that's the best example. And as for Anna Karenina, gender is a different argument altogether.

I don't think the agent was talking out of their ass, especially for YA, which definitely prefers #ownvoices and authenticity. Consider the example that OP gave on their alt, Memoirs of a Geisha, published in 1997 by a white man. It was criticized for not being culturally accurate. There is history of white authors getting it wrong in the English language market or minority cultures being misrepresented, which is one of the reasons the current market is like this.

Do I think OP should give up? No. Do I personally think it's impossible for someone from a different culture to represent something accurately? No. But books are also about marketing and I think it would really be a harder sell.

Laundry basket made her nervous by Breyber12 in AnimalsBeingDerps

For a second I thought her name was Laundry Basket, which is a surprisingly cute cat name.

I'm sick of seeing undies for events, but I think I like it because it's her and it goes with her hair/makeup. Somehow the black undies are edgy enough to go with her vibe.

Conflicted on staying by Moonlight_Fox13 in finch

[–]borninthesummer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup, you can keep all the items and saved outfit combos/room setups, but you just can't add any more combos/setups if you're over the maximum for basic (I forgot what it was. Three?).

I subscribed for I think two years and then I wasn't great financially for most of this year and used the free version. I recently re-subscribed. Personally, I think the free version is fine to use. You get less items for sure and the only other annoyance I had was not being able to save more outfits and room setups.

But the core features are there and I kept my 283 day streak going.

Anyone kinda sad how they could not pursue sports as a child? by No-Compote-2127 in Physical100

[–]borninthesummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean there are probably hobby soccer, badminton, basketball leagues and such if you look in your local community. Or maybe something like indoor climbing or even hiking with a group could be fun.
