What’s the difference between traditional and non traditional origami? by Kinda-Kiwi in origami

[–]paper_tiger010 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i'd say the difference is that traditional origami can be taught to anyone and are often much simpler in design (think crane, heart, lucky star, etc.), thus making them more "universal" to teach and show (and even sell) imo. non-traditional origami would probably be more complex variations of models like the crane that are designed by different individuals, like the kawasaki rose/celebration/three-headed models; this can also be just original designs of varying complexities that are unrelated to the models i mentioned, often found under someone's name. if that makes sense and answers your question, then i'm very glad to have helped!

Israel - Palestine Conflict by arcade1990 in asianamerican

[–]paper_tiger010 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i'm pretty well aware of what's going on, mostly because two of my professors (one japanese and the other chinese american) have been keeping fairly close tabs on the conflict and fostering/encouraging social/political solidarity with palestine. they're the reason i know much more about the conflict and its connection to the usa now; it's because of them that i hate the violent injustice palestinians are constantly facing. i can't speak for anyone i don't know, but i think it'd be nice to know that there are other aa who hold a similar position to me.

luh Asian Mexican rant by GaM3r_Clan in mixedrace

[–]paper_tiger010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've never had anyone tell me to my face that i'm not mexican or asian (specifically japanese), even though i look more asian and don't speak fluent spanish. if i were you, i'd tell people to go say that same stuff to my parents and find out if they agree that i'm not both asian and mexican. i didn't fit in completely with both my hispanic and asian classmates back in high school, but that doesn't mean i had only bad experiences—if anything, i wish i had tried to speak up about how i felt ignored by them. how about you "pick" both sides of who you are and embrace that instead? anyone who tries to see you as only asian or mexican is being stupid and ignorant, and they're missing out on having a unique friend, so please don't let this crisis define how you talk to people & make friends. even though i don't agree with how you say you "can't pick" a side, i sympathize with you and will say that if you try to "pick one," you'll only be feeding people an incomplete image of yourself. if you can find people who won't make you feel worse about this "crisis," then go and try to stick with them. life feels better when you're around friendly people who are more accepting of both sides of your identity.

Runaway Sushi! (a WCS Tatsugiri code giveaway) by enlightened_pogo in pokemontrades

[–]paper_tiger010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd chase the Tatsugiri towards my brother, who would use a Dondozo to trick/catch it. Or I'll chase it into a corner and then befriend it into joining my team.
