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
we truly regressed when people started buying into the genderbending is inherently transphobic thing. yeah that twelve year old being inquisitive and having fun on deviantart was your enemy all along.
my piece for the @hws-anthology! it's the gang enjoying some spicy street hotpot on a humid summer's evening 🍲

I, along with my family, Yafa 5 years, and Fahad 6 months, live in Gaza Strip and face a horrendous war. We are in need of assistance to flee and seek a safe life away from destruction and danger. Your donation could be a lifeline for us and give us hope for a better tomorrow. Thank you for your solidarity and support in this difficult moment.
