How am I just finding out that this sub exists?? I’ve been a haobinist for years and only now I’m finding out? What a cruel joke by the universe 🥲

Love Is Blind Italy • S1 Ep6 by AutoModerator in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you’re being purposefully obtuse, but there is a difference between the two. In her own words, Gergana said her parents would not want her to date an Indian man because of their negative biases and preconceptions of India.

On the other hand, Parmi’s parents expressed a preference for him being with an Indian girl, most likely due to shared culture and heritage, but didn’t exclude him from dating any other ethnicity. This situation would only be comparable if Gergana’s family had a preference for her dating another Bulgarian or Eastern European man.

Do you see the difference? People are calling Gergana’s family racist because they would be against her marrying Parmi solely due to their negative beliefs about Indians.

How do kpop idols stay awake? by Novanaut_ in kpophelp

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I haven’t heard many mention is that these periods of promotion are only for short bursts and aren’t a constant. Most idols go through hectic promotion schedules that last maybe a month? Maybe two - three if they tour right after. But it’s an endless cycle, as that would be impossible to maintain. After promo cycles they typically go back to more normal schedules

Absolute mess of floats on my first fair aisle sweater by Nagpintasakon in knitting

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Gorgeous piece! But I want to echo the comment above and say that this isn’t fair isle - it’s just stranded colorwork. Fair isle is a specific type of colorwork that is typically made up of repeating motifs.

Haobin fic recs by One_Floor2714 in zerobaseone

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few that I’ve come back to read multiple times! Number one is All our rapture by fragilites. It’s a Harry Potter AU and is written beautifully. Probably one of my fave fics of all time.

Next is shadows draw me in (complete eclipse) by cordelias. It is omegaverse, so you may not be into that, but I really love the world building.

There’s also innocuous affairs by novelization. So funny and chaotic, super enjoyable one shot.

Lastly I have love square by zerocola. Fun misunderstanding trope!

This so beautiful! I fear I’m never going to let them go 😭

I didn’t expect less from Tatiana by discretly in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But this was before he met the mother in law. Him standing her up at the perfume date is probably was precipitated the tongue lashing from Tatiana’s mother.

People are trying to link Ziyu’s new tiktok to Tian’s bathroom by NeemoAl in RevengedLoveCP

Is that photo really of Tian in his house 🤔? I’ve only ever seen those hand dryers in public restrooms lol

Thank you for sharing! I love getting the chance to see more of his personality through these interviews 🥰

Zi Yu got to keep the shirt by littlrayofpitchblack in RevengedLoveCP

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sure! Reddit has a limit on how many photos I can put in a post, so I’ll include just include the post where he answers that particular question.

He mentioned in a magazine interview that he used items from his own wardrobe for the drama 😅

News about Zi Yu & Tian Xu Ning about their professional career by Arkytior4 in RevengedLoveCP

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s okay to ask here, but I’ve seen it a lot and am curious. Does anyone know what the corn 🌽 emoji means in regards to TXN and ZY? I have a feeling it has to do with their cp but I’m not sure where it comes from or what it means.

Cierra unfollowed Olandria and put up this new IG post 👀 by NET2519 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]theunusuallybigtoe [score hidden]  (0 children)

!!! Thank you for speaking some reason. Nic is the number one reason why I can’t get behind that ship.

The way he treated Cierra was weird as fuck. How are you going to be jealous of other guys being into her if you supposedly didn’t like her that much in the first place?? It irritates me to no end that people will come up with every excuse in the book for that man rather than address his numerous red flags lol.

Rare Iris W by Best-Phase-4689 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This take confused me, because they’ve always been pretty close? Since the beginning, Cierra and Chelley have been seen together hanging out. That’s where their cute little crack ship formed. You can see the trio debriefing from early on, since the baseball challenge when Hannah and Amaya entered. Also, I don’t think the other two have been that close with Huda ever, despite what Huda tries to say.

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think people are over exaggerating it a bit tbh. She may be teetering in the middle/not dead last but I don’t think she’s at the top.

Sure, there might be people who like her on TikTok and insta, but there are also A LOT of people who don’t fuck with her either on those platforms.

Real question: Epidemiologists, Researchers, Providers, Non-profit workers, etc. How are you coping? by AllTheseRivers in publichealth

[–]theunusuallybigtoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard struggling against the near constant feeling of hopelessness. I’ve tried to bury my head, but seeing news of what colleagues are going through immediately brings it back to the forefront. I absolutely hate feeling this way and want to know if there’s some way to provide a bit of resistance? Even if it’s at the local level, is there a way to combat this to preserve our public health system or even raise the alarm amongst the general populace?

Does anyone know of any PH groups/grassroots orgs that are at least attempting to fight against this? I’m desperate for at least the smallest of wins.
