Welcome to a quick but important language lesson before our lovely Korean speaking members join the QSMP!
I call it:
“No, that Korean speaker is not casually saying the N-word.”
The Korean word for “I/me” is 내가, romanized as “nae-ga”
The Korean word for “you” is 니가, romanized as “ni-ga”
They are not saying a racial slur. It is literally the word for me/you. please understand the context, and get familiar with hearing these words all the time in normal conversation.
Read this article, this is what they have had to deal with in the west before.
Above all, extend grace and understanding to the new members and new communities. Research things yourself, and educate your friends about their language and culture to avoid misunderstandings. Realize that for many of these new people, this may be their first time interacting with another culture- let alone so many at once. They will be learning themselves, and may make mistakes. Be patient and for the love of god don’t scare them off. spread love <3

Thinking about how only part of Riza's back tattoo is burnt bc Roy couldn't bear to hurt her any further despite her request to burn it all away
Thinking about how Arakawa straight up answered the question about why Royai aren't together saying it's literally bc of military rules that they aren't married
She knew what she cooked here

Sigh
I can't believe I have to say this
If you know of anyone who's y'know "bad" or anything of the sort and happens to follow me... don't??? tell??? me??
Regardless of the circumstances and actions of the person, I say this with the utmost respect and fear: I don't want to get involved
What people who follow me or don't or have me blocked or muted or whatever do in their free and irl time is not my business
I know not to mess with english-speaking communities' personal affairs now. Like, no offense, but y'all are pretty fucking creepy when it comes to stuff like that, and that's why, again, I don't want to get involved
I have enough problems in the real world currently. Please understand that! 🙏

i...love subversion. and in stars and time does it so well...
"the chosen one" wasn't actually chosen by fate, but by circumstance, and is terrified that shes a fraud
big strong dumb guy isnt actually stupid, and kind of hates that people think he is
callous older character is actually incredibly caring in her own, slightly abrasive way, and proves she keeps an eye out for everyone
edgy loner rogue is actually very tired of being alone and craves connection to a dangerous degree
the naive young child isnt actually naive at all, they understand the danger they are in, and they understand the danger the others are in because of them
the guide themselves is lost and just as scared and the protagonist.

how do some of you motherfuckers watch supernatural and end up hating one of the brothers??? how do you hate Dean Winchester for having a world dooming loyalty to his family? how do you hate Sam Winchester for having that justified rage that wants so desperately to come out? how are you not both of them at once, choking in understanding every time they hurt one another because they think they have to?
