ngl im fucking terrified of how the fandom will act when the asian ccs get added and they are confronted with asian customs such as honorifics, asian cultural norms, and the language itself (ie words that are common in one language that sounds like a slur in another) and i know most of the fandom will be open and welcoming but idk im probably being way too pessimistic as someone who is asian and has seen the bs that people can spew esp regarding things like stereotypes
#qsmp#im being really negative rn cause im just really scared#im excited to see asian representation and i really hope to be proven wrong in my pessimism#but i will dropkick anyone who purposefully tries to misinterpret or villainize or sexualize or whatever my culture#its on fucking sight for those kinds of people#even people that just associate one thing for one culture ie japan with anime or korea with kpop#like i swear these countries and cultures are more than just that so please be open to learning more and not just make assumptions#also i am so very scared when it comes to cultural norms esp because qsmp is so damn western ethics and morality focused#i have many thoughts about this in particular but theyre way too complex#but yeah i really hope this event goes well and the new members feel welcomed

"why couldn't shuro have just been honest about what he felt with laios and falin it's not that hard" are you. are you White
#dungeon meshi#shuro#toshiro nakamoto#look you can hate him for other things but this is very clearly a case of cultures (& personalities influenced by these cultures) clashing#shuro is japanese/east asian-coded and laios is european white boy#i am not japanese but i also come from a collectivistic society#pakikisama is a filipino value both prized and abhorred#it relies heavily on being able to read social cues and prior knowledge of societal norms#shuro being from a different country/culture is important to his character#his repressed nature is meant to contrast with laios' open one like that's the point#they both had similar upbringings but different coping mechanisms#shuro explicitly admits that he's jealous of laios being able to live life sincerely#anyway the point is they were operating on different expectations entirely and neither had healthy enough communication skills#to hash things out before they got too bad#re his attraction to falin i personally believe he unfortunately mpdg-ed her#she represented something new & different. a fresh drink of water for his parched repressed self#alas not meant to be#i'll be honest the way ryoko kui handles both fantasy & regular racism in dm is more miss than hit for me#i don't doubt that a lot of the shuro hate is based off of marcille's pov of him#marcille famously racist 😭#characters' racist views don't often get (too) challenged#practically everyone is casually racist at some point#anyway. again if you're gonna hate shuro at least hate him for being complicit in human trafficking & slavery#he couldn't help falling for the wrong woman goddamn 😭#calemonsito notes#edit: upon further reflection i take back what i said about toshiro mpdg-ing falin!#i'm sorry toshiro 😭

some people here (not you my beautiful esteemed mutuals) live in some sort of alternate reality. or perhaps you don't live at all bc what is this 😭😭😭
#like this ain't nothing new but i just saw a post abt people being like HEH... if you cross the street without even looking at me i will#run you over you little bitch 😏😏 what will you do agaisnt it 😏😏#or that one person the other day saying that foreign country names (see: african and asian specifically) were not created with dyslexic#people in mind and thats why they didnt bother learning them#ok! so you remember luxemburg or bosnia and herzegovina but not easy peasy cambodia or kenya... ok...#just kidding they probably dont even know those either#or the people proudly saying because school didn't teach them anything at all ever (probably a big lie) they never bothered learning#INSANE

The fact people actually know and are friends with all their cousins is so unreal to me. Most of my cousins are not even on the same CONTINENT as me. I met a new cousin today and found out about three more. Who are these people. Where are they coming from
#the new cousin was great I like her a lot :]#I should also clarify the reason I joke so much about moving countries is coz half my family lives in the UK#I do wish I got to see my cousins more they all know each other + my sister way better than me so it’s always very awkward seeing them#and the Asian side are like. all full adults

sometimes ignorance isn't the worst thing
#i was about to sleep when i came across the pgc campus rape case reel which ofc yeah that's my feed and now i have to sit with the fact that#not only they did not get justice but many students were brutally beaten up and shot at while protesting ++ they denied everything because#there were suspicions of the ceo of institute being involved#i say the world is a scary for women always has been and won't change overnight but us south asian countries really excel in oppressing our#women girls specially young girls it was bangladesh first then the moumita case here in bengal (not like there weren't other disgusting and#horrifying rape cases & aren't still going on) but the brutality of these just keeps on upping each other#why did i have look into it now it sounds so selfish but atleast being ignorant is better than feeling all this helplessness & dread#i wish i had the 'oh i don't look at news' kind of attitude sometimes ngl because jesus it's just bad after worse after worse#but then i won't be able to live with myself i never had that dumb naive attitude towards world i grew up hearing about nirbhaya#i was terrified of men & our government & all the powerful people who get away with everything since i remember being able to walk to school#i was supposed to be sleeping rn sigh#tw rape

omg this basil-ginger veggie stir fry with braised tofu was INCREDIBLE I can see this becoming a staple in my quick weekly dinner rotation. I used this recipe but doubled the sauce (except for the sugar), added a bunch of extra veggies + ginger + red pepper flakes + scallions, and made the tofu in the air fryer (my beloved). YUMMMMMMM. I want to check some labels as I suspect that the sauce mix might have a lot of sneaky added sugar (how else could it be soooo rich and decadent) but yeah this one is a KEEPER.
#jes cooks#woks are incredible how did I let mine go unused all this time#also I feel like apart from Indian food I have explored so little of other Asian cuisines#my SIL recommended this blog and I am psyched that the first recipe is such a winner#maybe I’ll make a recipe from each country in Asia for my remaining new recipes in 2023#also I’ve never lived in a place with so many different ethnic grocery stores#is that a dated term? international grocery stores?#anyway I can get literally any ingredient for any national cuisine within a 5 min drive of my house#it’s amazing and I intend to take full advantage

Honestly I wonder almost everyday why Taylor didn’t go to India and China (she has one of the biggest market there), and even South Africa honestly because… I mean she’s The Beatles f this generation and she’s touring the globe so why don’t include countries where 1) there’s a huge market and 2) you can bring your music and spectacle for the first time. And if I were a kiwi I would be so pissed off she didn’t come to New Zealand because… she always came before The Eras Tour and now… she doesn’t?! Make it make sense.
i can't say about other places you mentioned but i feel like she tried to bring it to india or atleast considered it initially because of the big market, but i was thinking that while there is a huge fanbase here, fans can't actually make it happen if the government (or idk rich people of the country lmao) where she wants to perform don't want it to happen. like my brother used to work closely with stadiums and i was talking to him about this last year when she announced international dates and he said that her shows will require modifying the cricket stadiums a lot and even tho we have stadiums of that capacity, i don't think they would've done that because concerts are still not that much of a thing here, let alone eras tour level. also i feel like logistics and all didn't work out, idk but i do feel like she considered it initially. the economy boost would've been insane + she would have to do atleast 6 shows because the population is too much lol but well. ALSOOOO. i think releasing the concert film in so many countries (i did not expect it i fully thought it would be a US thing) was also a way to see how her fanbase has increased in other places (where she's not touring) so maybe they can try and bring the next tour there (hopefully)
#about new zealand... maybe they tried but dates didn't work out or something? or maybe they thought australia shows were enough 😭#idk we just have to believe#same way they thought japan and singapore shows covered most of other asian countries she couldn't tour#which i mean did happen bc i've seen so many people travel to tokyo or singapore even london from india for her shows#a part of me is happy she didn't come to india because she would get the ed sheeran treatment from bwood and i can't see that lmao
