I really do hope that someday parents stop thinking their kids should learn English first, or really any local language, instead of their native tongue when living somewhere
My abuelito didn't learn Spanish first when he was young because his parents didn't want him to grow up "troubled", and so he never fully learned Spanish. And when they died, he ended up forgetting how to speak it at all! He couldn't teach it to my mom, and so my mom couldn't teach it to me, and so much of the culture that we would've had is gone because of that
It's so, SO incredibly important to have sole sort of connection to your family's culture, even just through language, especially when you live in an area where it's extremely lacking!! That entire side of my family has been feeling that disconnect for so long, and my mom has been trying to make up for it by learning every traditional dish she can because learning an entire language is so difficult for her at her age
Please don't think that your kids, or that you yourself, should learn the local most spoken language because it will be "easier." It's just going to make you grieve that connection you could've had
#obviously everyone's experiences can be different#i just know what mine is#visiting CA and seeing the HUGE amounts of mexican culture was INSANE for me#it was my first time ever seeing an advertisement fully in spanish#it was wild#ive learned a lot of spanish now and im going to join my mom in learning traditional dishes#but it still sucks knowing i didnt have it from the start and that i never really will u know#languages#culture#english

ghhh... got lost under mexican cooking tutorials...
#they look so yummy....#i've never cooked mexican food so im not very familiar with how it works#like when i cook from scratch it's often japanese food (and sometimes chinese) so im familiar with those condiments/seasonings#and techniques and such#so you could leave me without a recipe and i'd be able to make something decent#i mean im not like super SUPER familiar with it but that's because i dont cook often enough for that. but as far as cooking familiarity goe#japanese is what i'm most familiar with#cannot say the same about mexican#i want to try out some mexican recipes#and also do some more of the chinese ones#also like middle eastern cooking.#also i'd like to figure out how to cook vietnamese food that doesn't just taste like fish sauce#i'll use like a QUARTER of the fish sauce a recipe says. and i can still. only. taste. fish sauce.#and everything smells like it too.#idk how vietnamese places manage to not get that to happen#unityrain.txt#tw food#also. i am very into finding authentic/traditional recipes for things. which is not at all how my mom would do it lol#if i wanted a recipe for dumplings i would either take my time to find chinese cooking blogs and read the “about” section#or find cooking tiktoks/videos where the grandma is helping and cannot speak any english so the granddaughter translates#and then compare like recipes from multiple places#but my mom would just. go to the first mommy blog that comes up where the suburban mom of three running it's entire asian seasoning#consists of soy sauce garlic ginger power and a fuck ton of cornstarch#needless to say. “”ethnic“” dishes my mom would find did NOT taste great.

Thinking about Disney and how we talk about Cultural Representation
(concept art by Scott Watanabe)
Old essay originally written on Cohost in November 2023. With additions.
With all the promo stuff about Disney's upcoming animated film Wish, I can't help but think about Raya and the Last Dragon again. I spent a year intensively researching things about that movie and the discourse surrounding it for a series of videos on Xiran Jay Zhao's channel, and oh boy did that reveal a lot about the current way we talk about cultural representation in casual media criticism.
Lately we've grown a habit of looking at signifiers to culture, things like a cultural dish, a nod to a martial arts style, a piece of clothing, maybe a hairstyle, a weapon and so on, and then projecting a bunch of intentions onto the work regardless of authorial intent. I witnessed this a bunch of times in discussions surrounding Raya and the Last Dragon.
You basically get a bunch of 4d chess-style justifications for the lazy implementation of culture in Raya.
random examples cuz there's too many to name:
The movie will do something like make the leaders of the villain nation women, and people immediately assumed it was some kind of bespoke reference to Minangkabau matriarchical society.
the art book of Raya specifically stated that they purposely misplaced things as a stylistic fantasy choice "we could take something that is known and place it in an unexpected location, like coral in the desert and cacti in the snow". But when people saw a water buffalo placed in the desert they assumed it was some super clever environmental story decision.
The movie will tell you it includes things like Borobudur, Angkor wat, Keris, and most people will take their word for it without hesitation. Never mind that Southeast Asians could barely recognize these nods to our culture through how amalgamated the designs are.
(early concept art by Scott Watanabe)
Moving forward, I think we need to talk less about "what" parts of a culture are being represented in these movies, and more about HOW they're being included, we need to ask:
What is this piece of media's relationship with the cultures it represents?
Because Raya and the Last Dragon is not a cultural movie, it's a monolith film pitched and written by white people and a Mexican director with 2 SEA writers added later in production to avoid backlash. Culture serves the purpose of aesthetic set dressing in the film, as opposed to something that informs its themes and characters.
it wasn't even initially pitched as a Southeast Asian movie. The white writers who pitched it were going for a vague East Asian sci fi fantasy story under the working title "Dragon Empire". Southeast Asian culture was an aesthetic change added much later.
This is what happens when a corporation tries to put representational value on a shallow aesthetic. Because of the way Disney constantly marketed Raya as this big authentic cultural film, it primes its audience to read cultural intention in the most benign details. And when we get lost in the details, we lose sight of the bigger picture.
Contextualizing Cultural media criticism
(visual development art by April Liu)
We need to start demanding more context in our analysis. The next time we see a reference to culture in media we consume, take a step back and ask what purpose it serves in the narrative. And most importantly!! What Is Its Relationship With The Culture It Represents? We shouldn't just accept things at face value.
start asking yourself,
through what lens is this cultural dish and its spicy flavors being presented to us? Are the customs surrounding the food being respected?
If martial arts or dance is represented, how is it translated in the adaptation? Are you getting generic hollywood-fu or are you seeing specific movements with purpose and motivation? Are the philosophies or spiritual contexts of these traditions present in the text?
Are the clothing, hairstyles, and presentation of the characters being de-yassified through a colonial filter? Is the non-conformity of the cultures' different framework for gender presentation being adjusted to fit a more recognizable binary?
If language is present, what role does it serve? Is it presented as other through being exclusively used by villainous beings? Is it being made a monolith as one "non-English" language?
is this temple actually a place of worship or is it just a set piece for a goddang Indiana jones booby trap action fight sequence
This way, instead of unquestionably defending a piece of media because a character wore a traditional outfit one time, or because some characters took their shoes off at a temple, or because there were Arnis sticks in that one fight scene, we can approach the text with a more nuanced and holistic understanding of how culture informs narrative.
To quote Haunani K. Trask (author of From A Native Daughter):
“Cultural people have to become political… Our culture can’t just be ornamental and recreational. That’s what Waikiki is. Our culture has to be the core of our resistance. The core of our anger. The core of our mana. That’s what culture is for.”
#ramblings#media criticism#jesncin cohost essay repost#working on the raya videos was so informative for how I approach cultural media criticism#like it really made me question what exactly I wanted from cultural representation

Obey Me x Mexican! MC
♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧
-MC who roasts chiles in the kitchen, the smell traveling through the house. When anyone gets to the last steps of the stairs, they're hit with the smell and start choking. Eyes burning a little.
-MC who makes traditional dishes for everyone during their holidays. Tamales, Mole, Pozole, enchiladas, etc.
-Beel was opened to a whole new world of food.
-MC who worked part-time at their Tío's panadería and now makes bolillo on the weekends for their morning coffee.
-MC who curses in Spanish. All the brothers just stare at them, knowing the MC is angry but they aren't sure what to do.
-MC who's thrown their slipper at Mammon from across the house with impressive aim.
-MC who listens to the radio while they clean.
-MC who sets up a little Alter for Día Del Los Muertos (They forbade Beel from taking any of the offerings)
-MC leaving Barbatos puzzled as they don't measure any of their ingredients when cooking.
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
"Add a little bit of this"
"How much of this was it?"
"Idk till your ancestors tell you to stop"

Dulce's first cookbook is now in stores 💜 Having grown up in Italy with a Mexican heritage, she brought together dishes from both cultures. She honored tradition and stayed true to the rich history of the food while introducing new ways to enhance the flavors.
There are recipes for everyone—no matter if they are a beginner or want to elevate their skills. Also, there are recipes for those who only have five minutes or are cooking for an entire wedding. All the recipes are named after important people in her life, and she wrote a personal story to go along with them.
This book is near and dear to her heart and she hopes she can help or inspire other people.
*Includes precise measurements, easy-to-follow instructions, accurate cooking times, and mouth-watering photos.
#thanks again to bob pancakes ✅#ik purple isn't one of the usual colors used for designs related to food cuz it's not as appetizing as red/orange/yellow but this is dulce#dulce alegria#tjolc gen 2#sims 4#ts4#the sims 4#tjolc#alegria legacy#sims 4 legacy#sims#tjol challenge

brainrot so intense that while i was eating some homemade traditional food i starting thinking to myself “I’d love to show Abby how to properly eat traditional dishes with her hands and bread the proper way and maybe feed her some from my hand”
I need to marry this girl or i will perish
oh oh oh! my little, mexican heart ♡
i’m thinking about making abby empanadas from scratch. she’d be the one to insist on helping you make them. making the dough, filling them up with meat or shrimp, and showing her how to craft the correct shape with the dough. she’d be struggling with the dough, but her lips would be jutted out, blonde eyebrows furrowed in concentration. no, baby, like this. yeah? her big, blue eyes would bug in confirmation, mouth quirking up as your softer hands guide her.
once they’re fried and ready, you’d sprinkle them with cheese, decorating them with verdé salsa. her delicate voice asks if she can try some, you can tell she’s dying to have a taste, with a slight nod of your head she takes the first bite, letting herself sink into the flakes. the filling satiating her tongue. the grunt formed moan makes you giggle as she goes in for another bite.
“baby—” abby pauses as you take in the juice dribbling down her chin. “this is delicious. didn’t know you could cook like this.” you wipe the liquid dripping down her chin, before cleaning it with your mouth, sucking it off your fingers.
“there’s definitely more where that comes from. promise.” you kiss her cheek swiftly as you grab your own to munch on.

"awe, thank you, tommy"

he's used to "great, busy, just how we like it" and "awful, the meat came in moldy, and all the veggies were practically rotten. half the menu couldn't be ordered"
FREDDIE BADLINU
always watching you cook to learn some tricks
"whats that?" "how much do you use of that?"
jokes about bringing Gordon Ramsey to your restaurant to judge your cooking skills
your food is the first thing he thinks about when he's stressed or anxious about something
there's something so cozy about chicken alfredo and sitting with you on the couch, watching stupid horror movies with 2 stars
he's the apprentice to your chef in the kitchen
need a bowl? he's got it. need a spoon? he's got it. need some cut up parsley? he's on it

he tries to help in the kitchen, but he's better at watching and taking notes
"is your work like The Bear or no?"
"uh... kinda"
CHARLIE SLIMECICLE
craves your cooking at every meal
you rarely go out to eat
he loves helping in the kitchen to pull his weight

"carrots! oregano! cilantro! butter!"
literally quotes the bear at every move he can
"chefs!"
"charlie, I'm trying to not let this burn"
meanwhile schlatt is on his phone FaceTime watching you both cook (and watching the stream) for no reason
