Hot take: school shootings (and mass shootings in general) are not enough of a problem to be even worth spending any political power on

sweats profusely

when the police kills more people per year than the amount killed by those spree shootings since 1982.

Had me in the first half, ngl.

Oh shit, the FBI is on to me, brb gonna make sure the bodies in my backyard are well hidden

As an ethnic Chinese that have watched a lot of Chinese WW2 movies/tv shows, this kinda shocked me a bit lol… looks like a pro- imperialist japan invasion propaganda poster. (cuz it looks like a rising sun flag)

This would be the equivalent of a westerner seeing a swastica.

Well said, Spice Hoarder

“Sausage, pepperoni, bacon, ham” and I just custom added pineapple

I mean sometimes food doesn’t exactly look the best, but food is for tasting, not for looking lol

xD

Isn’t radish = 酸菜?

Sorry idk how to language xD

idk I think that’s a bit too sour for my liking.

I had it with rice and its… meh…

I mean I think I tried some fried tofu cooked with it and it’s fine

not too big if a fan

don’t think it’d taste too good on a pizza

I mean Pineapple by itself isn’t that great either, you need meat to make it “balanced”, the saltiness of meat + sweet/sour of pineapple is so balanced.

M’They’dy

Sitting next to a child is tame. I was forced to go to a family gathering and we went to a restaurant and one of the relatives on my table had a kid (like less than 10 years old) that was just fucking DROOLING OVER THE PLATE and the USE THEIR SALIAVA-FILLED-HANDS TO TOUCH THE FOOD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TABLE 😱🤢🤮

God damn use the clean chopsticks that’s on the plates, jesus christ.

I knew to be using 公筷 (shared chopsticks) when I was 8 years old, especially when in public. And I never fucking DROOL over the plates…

aaaaaah I wanted to scream there, but I didn’t wanna cause a scene, so I just didn’t say anything about that kid CONTAMINATING ALL THE FOOD.

Pretty sure I got sick that night…

(It was 2024 December btw, still remember how much my mom just forced me to go to stupid family gathering)

Tbf, just using the term “American” can sometimes leave out important context. Cuz of white defaultism.

In certain places in the world, the term “American” usually gets the image of a white person in their mind, sometimes black people, but an Asian person is never in their mind. So like, if you are like on the internet, and you don’t say “Asian American”, people usually just assume you look like some white hillbilly in the US south.

If I’m running for office or at a polling place or if, god forbid, ICE shows up, I’m just “American”, but if racial conflict is involved like if Covid and Anti-Asian hate crimes is the topic, then leaving the “Asian” part out of “Asian Americans like me are being targeted in a wave of hate crimes” would result in a meaningless sentence.

It all depends on context.

Its a few random European languages in a trenchcoat

casually CHOMPS on my pet cow

Nature made us this way. Life exist by eating other life, that’s how it is. Blame god/universe for it.

Funny how English has

“Beef”, “Pork”, “Lamb”

when in some languages its just

[The Word for the Animal]+[The Word for “Meat”]

Literally, your language influences how you think.

My “native” languages are Cantonese and Mandarin and I always knew where the meat came from, like its literally in the word itself. [牛肉，豬肉，羊肉]

oftentimes take these facts and spin them for ad revenue, political gain, or their own career advancement

That’s not a journalist, that’s a propagandist
