─────────────────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───────────────────
Florence was always looking for shit.
She was always looking for shit for us to do, places to go, food to eat, but sometimes, it was a lot.
Like today. Although it was only the nineteenth of April, the sun was blaring down on the little city of D.C. (namely, the District of Columbia, for all of you non-natives) like an absolute bitch. And I, immune to alcohol poisoning, foot fungus, and slightly-immune to bad breath, was not absolutely not immune to the wrathful rays of the sun.
Zilch. Nada.
So when I originally left the house in a cardigan, I immediately went back in to change into a tank top and jorts. It was hot. I was hot. And Florence wanted to spend the whole day walking around the city doing God knows what.
That's how we ended up stumbling across a parade.
Every know and then when I would visit D.C., I would sometimes almost accidentally show up right in time for an event. Sometimes I happened to love the event, other times, I sometimes left, queasy, dizzy, and claustrophobic.
I wasn't sure what to make out of today's event.
At first, when looking from an outsider's perspective, it seemed as if I had walked into one large, large, cult meeting. Oh no.
Every one was adorned in shapes of navy, cheering, screaming, and worse of them all, holding a goddamn can of RedBull's Energy drink.
The air was thick with the scent of anticipation and caffeine, a cocktail potent enough to keep even the most exhausted of souls awake for days.
Banners fluttered wildly in the hands of fervent fans, each emblazoned with logos and slogans that screamed allegiance.
Vendors weaved through the throng, hawking more cans of the ubiquitous energy drink, their cries barely audible over the din.
Occasionally, a shower of confetti would rain down, sticking to the sweat-drenched skin of the masses, creating a mosaic of glittering chaos. The atmosphere was electric, charged with the raw energy of thousands of voices united in a singular, frenzied purpose.
Ew.
RedBull being one of my least favorite sodas (can you even call something you vehemently dislike a favorite at this point?) already made me additionally pissy.
So when Florence and I had just arrived at D.C. and walked towards Pennsylvania Avenue, it was too late for us to realize that the event was actually ending, and the crowd was dispersing.
Even as a girl who hails from the city, I do get quite nervous and claustrophobic around too many people. So to my utter horror, people from the flood of the RedBull cult were heading straight towards us, scattering like a pack of fleas.
Too late.
I had lost my tight grip (I swear I was holding on to her hand super duper tightly!) on Florence's hand, and we ended up getting separated from each other. Calling her name would be no use in this throng of people.
My heart pounded in my chest as I desperately scanned the sea of navy shapes, each person indistinguishable from the next in the dimming light.
Panic set in, and I could feel the beginnings of a cold sweat on the back of my neck. I tried to push my way through the crowd, but it felt like swimming against a relentless tide. People brushed past me, some nearly knocking me over in their haste to leave.
The overwhelming noise of their chatter, laughter, and the occasional burp of a RedBull can opening filled the air, making it impossible to concentrate.
It was gross. It was disgusting. I was disgusted.
I spun around, hoping to catch a glimpse of Florence’s distinctive red scarf, but all I saw were faceless masses. My phone! I fumbled in my pocket, my fingers trembling as I tried to pull it out without dropping it. Just as I managed to get a hold of it, someone bumped into me, and the phone slipped from my grasp, landing with a sickening thud on the pavement.
“Dammit!” I muttered under my breath, crouching down to retrieve it, praying it wasn’t shattered. As I picked it up, I glanced around again, my heart sinking. Florence was nowhere to be seen.
In this crowd of sickeningly electric people over an energy drink, I was dead. Six feet under. Tired, and I had just gotten to D.C..
I looked around in despair, realizing that I must have walked a few blocks without even noticing, my mind too frazzled by the chaos and my separation from Florence.
My phone was clutched tightly in my hand, my lifeline in this moment of utter confusion. I tried to call Florence, but there was no signal. "Damn this shitty data!" I cursed under my breath, feeling my frustration bubble over. The crowd seemed to close in around me, their excited chatter and laughter a stark contrast to my growing panic.
My fingers tapped frantically at the screen, hoping that maybe, just maybe, a bar of signal would appear and rescue me from this nightmare. I could feel the beginnings of a headache forming, the kind that starts as a dull throb and quickly escalates into a pounding, relentless pain.
The one goddamn day I had left the house without my morning coffee and this shit decided to happen to me...
In a desperate attempt, I switched my phone to airplane mode and back again, praying for a miracle. But nothing changed. The crowd jostled me from all sides, pushing and pulling like a relentless tide, each shove adding to my rising sense of helplessness.
I glanced around, trying to find a familiar landmark or a quieter spot to regroup, but all I saw were waves of navy shapes and faces blurred by motion and anxiety.
"Florence!" I shouted again, my voice barely carrying above the din. The energy drink-fueled chaos was suffocating, a cacophony of noise and movement that seemed designed to disorient and overwhelm. I caught sight of a bench a few feet away and made a beeline for it, hoping to gain some semblance of stability.
I was in a twisted, sick, alternative fever dream where my nightmare fuel was in fact RedBull™, ha ha ha.
Whatever, I could probably find her somewhere around the city, I mean, it wasn't that big...right?
So there I was, in D.C., by myself. Not like I wanted to go in the first place that morning, but whatever.
Lost in thought, I was just wandering around, not really concentrating on anything in particular. Horrible city instincts, might I add. Because of my absentmindedness, I clearly did not notice when I walked into someone.
More like someone's RedBull drink walked into me.
I could not escape the nightmare fuel fever dream RedBull™ agenda, couldn't I.
Now I was extremely pissed off. The icy liquid soaked through my shirt, a cold shock that made me gasp and snap back to reality.
Looking up, I was two milliseconds away from berating whoever spilled this devil-drink all over me. But my harsh words died on the tip of my tongue the very instant that I looked up.
I was looking at a man. But not just any regular man. An extremely handsome man.
His startling icy turquoise eyes connected with mine. His stubble, a little overgrown, looked so hot. His mousy, brown touseled hair gave him a nonchalant yet strangely put-together look, and I was all in for it. And I, a girl who never stops talking, I was rendered speechless.
From the first glance, everything about him seemed perfect.
Except for the fact that he just spilled RedBull all over my white tank top and he was even wearing RedBull merch, from head to toe. Like who does that? What fashion choices...
He gave me a sheepish smile, clearly embarrassed. "I'm so sorry," he said, his voice smooth and sincere. "I didn't see you there." His soft, European (?) accent lulled me to silence in an instance.
I wanted to be mad, I really did, but his charm was disarming. "It's fine," I managed to say, trying to suppress the butterflies in my stomach. "Accidents happen."
"Let me help you," he offered, reaching into his pockets and pulling out a pack of Kleenex tissues. He reached out towards me, seemingly wanting to put his hands on my shirt.
"Oh, oh, that's okay," I said, freaking out internally. If this handsome European man touched me that close to my boobs I might just have to propose to him that very instant.
"No, no, no, I insist," he said, his accent getting thicker, clearly not understanding my drift. He was too handsome to be doing this shit, I swear.
He came closer towards me, and I instinctively backed up a bit more. Not catching my drift (once again), he took a larger stride towards me. I, unprepared for this wild encounter, didn't step backwards in time, so the sexy European man in all of his glory, collided into me.
And down we went.
It must've been a funny sight to see from the average passerby. Them just minding their business. Maybe walking their dog. Or perhaps getting a morning lattee.
Bam.
Lying in the middle of the street are two people. Just there.
I would've hit my head on the pavement and probably cracked my scull wide open if not for the RedBull man. He had cradled one arm around my head, the other wrapped tightly around my waist. I think (?) he was helping me to try to stop the fall.
To no avail, we still fell.
What he disregarded, though, was when he tried to stop the fall, was the reason why we were falling in the first place. As grabbed my head as we fell, he also let go of the RedBull can. So now, free in the wind and open towards the chaos of the District of Columbia, the RedBull can fell.
Fell where? You may ask. It fell over us. It fell everywhere. The sticky, icky drink splattered across both of our faces, its cold, sugary droplets clinging to our skin like a caffeinated rain shower. The can, released from his grasp, seemed to defy gravity for a split second, twisting in the air before gravity's inevitable pull sent it crashing down.
The can hit the ground with a soft thud, its contents erupting in a fizzy explosion of energy. The liquid sprayed outward in all directions, catching us both off guard.
Streams of RedBull arced through the air, some landing on nearby pedestrians who stared in disbelief, while others formed tiny puddles on the sidewalk, reflecting the cloudy yet impeccably humid D.C. sky above.
For a moment, him and I laid on top of each other (weird and freaky, I know), frozen in a tableau of absurdity, our faces now adorned with streaks of sticky red liquid.
A passerby, caught in the crossfire, chuckled as they hurried past, muttering something about needing to wash their dog now. It was a scene straight out of a slapstick comedy, and despite my initial shock and embarrassment, I couldn't help but laugh along with him.
And you may think, oh wow, that is horrible. That must hurt. Your joints, your back, your legs. And to that I say, yes, yes, and very much absolutely yes.
The very sexy (slightly less sexy, now that we were mangled on the disgusting sidewalk) European man was laying on me with all his bodyweight, and it very much hurt.
To make matters worse, our faces collided. You ask, where did your faces specifically collide?
Our lips. Our lips collided, and they touched.
And me like the dumbass I am, when I see a face coming towards mine unexpectedly, eyes closed, and especially a face who's male.... I puckered up.
Yes, I was stupid.
Now, I was on the floor, sticky, and kissing a stranger.
Out of context, that sounds like a funny and strange sentence. But this whole scenario in the first place was out of context, so bear with me. I mean, how often do you end up on the ground, covered in energy drink, and accidentally kissing a stranger in the middle of the day?
It was like something out of a quirky rom-com (okay, more like the evil-twisted beginning to one of those abduction horror stories grown-ups tell you when you are a kid), except I never imagined I'd be the protagonist.
But in that split second, with the taste of RedBull lingering on our lips and the chaos of the city swirling around us, there was an inexplicable spark. It wasn't just the caffeine rush; it was a moment of shared laughter and unexpected connection amidst the sticky mess.
In this moment, I was either going to die because he was about to kidnap me, or sheerly die out of embarrassment. Or, I would will myself to die, this was not happening to me.
He pulled back, his cheeks flushed with embarrassment. "I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" he asked, his accent making his words sound even more sincere.
I tried to laugh it off, but the awkwardness of the situation was hard to shake. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just… sticky." I wiped at my face, feeling the sugary residue cling to my skin.
He helped me to my feet, brushing off his clothes with an apologetic smile. "I didn't mean to… I mean, that was not… you know," he stammered, clearly flustered.
"It's okay," I reassured him, despite feeling mortified myself. "Really, it's fine. Just a little... unexpected."
He chuckled nervously, running a hand through his hair. He winced, as he realized that his fingers as well as his hair smelled like RedBull. "Well, this is definitely not how I imagined meeting someone today."
"Me neither," I admitted, feeling a strange mix of embarrassment and amusement. "But hey, at least it's a memorable encounter."
He chuckled, shaking his head. "Yeah, I guess this is one way to make an impression. I'm Max, by the way. Professional RedBull spiller and accidental kisser."
I laughed, the tension easing. "Nice to meet you, Max. I'm Y/N. Apparently, I'm your victim for today."
"Victim? More like an unsuspecting hero," he replied with a playful grin. "Seriously, though, I'm really sorry about all this. Can I at least buy you a coffee to make up for it?"
"Well, considering you saved me from cracking my skull open, I think I can let you off the hook," I said, trying to sound casual while still feeling a bit flustered. "And coffee sounds good."
"Great! I know a place just around the corner. And I promise, no more RedBull," he said, raising his hands in mock surrender. (Yeah, the biggest lie I was ever told. Do not trust sexy men, they are all liars)
As we walked towards the café, the awkwardness of our first meeting began to fade into a shared sense of humor about the absurdity of the situation. Max continued to apologize, making light-hearted comments about his job with RedBull and his less-than-perfect coordination skills.
"You know," Max started with a grin, "I guess I should add 'professional accidental kisser' to my resume now."
I chuckled, shaking my head. "Not sure how many job openings there are for that, but you'd definitely stand out."
"Well, it's all about making a memorable first impression, right?" Max replied, his eyes twinkling mischievously.
"Definitely memorable," I agreed, taking a playful jab. "Though next time, maybe aim for something less sticky?"
Max feigned offense, placing a hand over his heart. "But where's the fun in that? Besides, it's not every day you get to meet someone while wearing your finest RedBull cologne."
"I have to admit," I said with a smirk, "you wear it well."
Max chuckled, nudging me playfully. "Hey, it's an acquired scent. You'll get used to it."
"And here I thought coffee was supposed to be the only thing brewing today," I teased, glancing at him from the corner of my eye.
He leaned closer, lowering his voice conspiratorially. "Who says we can't have a double shot of excitement?"
I couldn't help but chuckle at his playful flirtation, feeling myself relax even more in his company. "Well, as long as it doesn't involve any more airborne beverages, I'm all in."
Max raised an eyebrow, pretending to look offended. "Are you saying you didn't enjoy our little RedBull shower?"
"Let's just say I prefer my caffeine in a cup," I replied with a grin, sipping my coffee and meeting his gaze over the rim. "So, Max, what other talents do you have besides professional beverage mishaps?"
He leaned back, pretending to ponder the question seriously. "Well, I can juggle three balls at once. And I'm pretty good at making people laugh, unintentionally, most of the time."
"I can see that," I said, laughing softly. "You've definitely brightened up my day, unintentionally." Continuing, I said, "I was lost in that throng, no, no, no, cult of people wearing RedBull on Penn Ave. It was absolutely horrible, never again."
He guffawed loudly, so loudly, at my slightly funny joke, I for a second, thought that there was an underlying joke in my statement that I had not caught (spoiler alert, there was).
Max guffawed loudly, his laughter infectious. "Oh, I'm sorry," he managed between chuckles, "but you have to admit, it makes for a great story."
"You find this funny?" I asked, feigning offense while trying not to laugh myself. "I was traumatized by energy drink enthusiasts!"
"Hey, at least you made it out alive," Max quipped, wiping a tear of laughter from his eye. "And here you are, sharing your harrowing tale with a fellow survivor."
"Survivor?" I raised an eyebrow, pretending to assess him critically. "Or secret admirer of RedBull?"
Max shrugged, his smile mischievous. "Maybe a bit of both. It's an acquired taste, you know."
"You are just saying that as a cult member, I can't really trust what you say still. I am so sorry, but you could not pay me to drink that can of dog piss," I jokingly rolled my eyes.
Max burst into laughter, his amusement filling the air around us. "Dog piss? That's a new one! Trust me, I'm not here to convert you," he said, grinning widely. "But if you ever change your mind, I'll be here with a fresh can and an open mind."
"Hmmm... okay," I reluctantly said. (Yeah, fat chance you would get me to drink RedBull willingly)
"That only made him laugh louder. "So I've heard," Max replied with a grin, clearly taking my comment in good humor.
I chuckled, feeling a sense of relief that he wasn't offended by my playful jab. "I mean, it takes confidence to rock the RedBull look from head to toe," I added, trying to soften my teasing with a smile.
"Exactly!" Max exclaimed, his laughter subsiding into a grin. "You've got to commit to the brand, right?"
"Absolutely," I agreed, nodding. "I have to hand it to you, though. Not many people can pull off such a bold fashion statement."
"Well, thank you," Max said, his tone light and playful. "I guess you could say I'm all about making a statement."
"I can see that," I replied, unable to resist teasing him a bit more. "I suppose next time we meet, I should wear something equally attention-grabbing to match your style."
Max laughed, shaking his head. "Please do. It'll make for an even more interesting encounter."
Everytime he spoke, he made direct eye contact with me. It was so sexy and seductive, and I don't even think that Max knew what he was doing was hella attractive.
I, not immune to anything today I guess, fell hard for a stranger that I had just met.

As you guys know, this world is cruel and I'd do anything to make her the happiest, but I've failed to do it. I personally love it when people make assumptions or speculations about me, because I know they all wrong. But when people start to say something hurtful to my woman, I can't tolerate it.
Six years of relationship and we have never ever broken up, not even once, if that's what you all really want to know. She's my present and future, she's the one who teaches me how forever feels. The love I have for her only gets stronger and bigger, it's crazy to think about it. Thank you for all the love and support, we really appreciate it.

that’s actually so fucked i’m so pissed that dan said that and just last year wtf?? i know dnp have said their fare share of microaggressions in the past and as a poc fan i have to just kind of sigh and reckon with the insane white privilege uk bubble they have always lived in but at this point being a public figure for 15 years with fans all around the world it’s well past time to get some general awareness of like. other people’s lives 🙄🙄 i generally have a good time around here bc i keep to myself and dnp haven’t been largely problematic in quite a long time but sometimes it’s exhausting
exactly!! after 15 years of being entertainers one would imagine they’re a bit more in touch with their poc audience and just generally the ?? state of the world ??
like it’s not that hard to really get out of your privilege bubble and understand why some of their fans would feel bad and hurt about pretty much ignoring their region or claiming that they could never see their show cause it’s a “first world” one
I feel you, dan and phil (especially compared to other creators) tend to not be problematic, but that’s not to say they couldn’t be more informed and treat their poc audience with more care. I too usually keep to myself and not start discourse, but if we don’t hold them to the things they have said and not taking latam or Asia or Africa in account then no one will

Okay. Get ready for a long client recap.
The four-hour date went okay. I arrived about 2 minutes late because I missed my turn. Mr. Asia (we will call him that because he just flew in from Asia on Thursday) and I met in the hotel lobby and we drove to the restaurant in his rental BMW.
He actually looked younger than he does in his selfie. That intimidated me because I’m used to older male clients. But he’s in his mid 50’s and you know black don’t crack. He dressed like a young man too. He wore (hideous) Louis Vuitton sneakers and a (hideous) Louis Vuitton monogram belt. He also wore LV cologne (I saw the bottles in his bathroom). The cologne smelled bad.
Conversation was a little awkward. I’m not sure if we just lacked chemistry. He held my hand to and from the car and that was really sweet. He’s a hand-holding kind of guy. His hand-holding made me realize that I’m really not an affectionate person and I wonder if clients notice. I should try to show more affection on dinner dates.
The restaurant we went to was a sushi/hibachi joint, very family style. Folks were in there wearing sweatpants and chanclas (🩴). It was like one of those hibachi places in the mall but because it was located on the south side of town, the patrons didn’t give a shit about dressing up. He and I were the best-dressed people there.
Dinner was fine. We both had sashimi.
We talked on the way back from the restaurant and I found out that he has about $2M in equity in his home out of state (the house is paid off). That doesn’t exactly make him wealthy but I see why he appears to be doing well. Also, if he got divorced, half of that is his wife’s.
I spent about 15 minutes getting ready in the bathroom after we got to his room. I’d done a good job clearing out the odor and debris from my period over the last few days so I was mainly fresh when I got to his room (I’m on day 5 of my period). I moistened a sea sponge with lube and shoved it up my vagina (ouch).
Thank you for the recommendations for how to work on my period.
He got undressed after I emerged from the bathroom. When we met earlier, I could see that he had a nice build. Bulging biceps and all that. He’s a thickums. He also has a lot of tattoos. But, my goodness, he looked absolutely lovely with his clothes off. Very shapely arms and a gorgeous tattoo that covers the right arm and right pectorals. Gee golly willikers. 😂 He was basically a beef cake. I loved having his weight on top of me during foreplay.
But I should have known he has a problem getting hard when he offered to give me a massage. After the massage, he gnawed on vagina for about 20 minutes (🙄). His peen was still flaccid afterward. I tried going down on him and jerking him but it wouldn’t work. He was embarrassed and said he simply didn’t like condoms. At first, I thought he was angling for bare sex but I think he was just covering up for what might be erectile dysfunction.
After he chewed my vagina raw, he asked if I had an orgasm from the oral. I told the truth and said, “no” but that made it even more of a challenge for him. He went down on me again and I realized I wouldn’t be able to move this thing along unless I had an orgasm so I just faked one. After that, he had me lay on my stomach, oiled up my butt cheeks, and humped me until he came.
After that, he talked about his marriages. I like when clients open about their marriage. Those are the best parts of the date for me. I love gossip. He’s on his third marriage. They don’t have sex and his wife is unwilling to divorce him. End of story. Also, she’s white-passing.
Anyway, I got my things together and left after that. He shot me a text later to say that he enjoyed our time. I think he was worried that I thought I did a bad job because his peenie wouldn’t get hard. I already knew that wasn’t my fault. Over text, he said he just enjoys being able to look at and touch my body. That, I can believe.
He did admit to having a problem with alcohol when he was younger (alcoholism runs in his family) so maybe that explains his limp penis.
I got home an hour and a half ago. I’d been panicking because I was worrying about how to get that dern sponge out. It was my first time using one. The girls on Reddit said it’s difficult take out. And you really do have to bury the sponge because the canal needs room for the penis (but how ironic is it that the first time I use the sponge, I didn’t even have penetration?).
Anyway, I went back to Reddit to read some tips on how to remove the derned thing. Had I not moistened it with lube before sticking it up there, it would still be there. But after about 20 minutes of pushing like I was in labor with a big-headed baby, I was able to pull it down and out using two fingers… But I barely even got a hold of the tip when I did that.
Anyway, it was a pretty successful night. Paid to have dinner with a guy and let him hump my butt cheeks until he came. Good stuff. Tomorrow, I’ll deposit the cash use it to pay July’s mortgage.

Happy anniversary to K-pop's chameleons!
On the 29th of July, fourteen years ago, Jiyeon, Hyomin, Eunjung, Qri, Soyeon and Boram gave their first ever performance as T-ara! Although said performance was met with backlash (because apparently T-ara were the only people ever to lip sync on a music show stage 🙄👀) and perhaps serving as a cruel first taste of what was go come later on, it only served as extra motivation for T-ara to do better, and their very next comeback with Bo Peep Bo Peep was a smash hit!
T-ara's career is marked by hook-heavy dance-pop music. A broad array of visual concepts have earned the group a "chameleon-like" reputation. The group has achieved commercial success in several regions in Asia including South Korea and China, with their 2011 single "Roly-Poly" being one of the most downloaded domestic singles since 2010.
Their debut studio album Absolute First Album was released in December 2009 to critical and commercial success, and spawned the hit singles "TTL (Time to Love)", "Bo Peep Bo Peep", and "You Drive Me Crazy". Both their debut Japanese single and studio album reached number one on the Oricon weekly charts and were subsequently certified Gold. They subsequently gained nationwide recognition after releasing "Roly-Poly" in 2011, which went on to become the Gaon chart's best-selling single of the year. At the height of K-pop's popularity in Japan, T-ara signed onto management agency J-Rock for $4.7 million—reportedly the highest figure of any Korean girl group expanding into the territory at the time. T-ara's late-2011 Korean release Black Eyes spawned three consecutive number ones: "Cry Cry", "We Were in Love" and "Lovey-Dovey".
In 2012, T-ara experienced a dip in popularity as the group faced accusations of internal discord, resulting in Hwayoung's immediate departure with Areum following a year after. T-ara's later material was released to varying degrees of success before the group began focusing on promotional activities in China, where they attracted attention for their cover of Chopstick Brothers' "Little Apple" in 2014. T-ara's final release as six members was tentatively scheduled for May 2017, ahead of Soyeon and Boram's expiring contracts; however, conflicts with their management delayed What's My Name? until June 2017, effectively ending their involvement.
On January 3, 2018, T-ara went on an indefinite hiatus in order to allow the members to pursue their solo careers. T-ara reunited after four years and released their first independent album, Re:T-ara, in November 2021.
According to Sina Entertainment, T-ara is the 9th best selling K-pop girl group in terms of physical albums with a total of 1,14 Million albums (as of December 2020), ranking third amongst second generation groups.
T-ara are a constant reminder that hard work and perseverance, no matter outside forces tarnishing your reputation with false claims, will always shine through, and that serving bop after bop after bop is never a bad choice!

Europeans talk a lot of shit about america to deflect from their own bloody history of violent colonialism. Especially the brits like who the fuck's fault do you think america is??? Lmfao??? They wanna act like they're soooo advanced with culture and art and blah blah blah and the only reason they have such like...pristine landscapes/well-preserved history still present on the land is because they pillaged burned and destroyed everyone else's and used the blood money to enrich themselves. Europeans needs to have several seats and address their own structural inequalities/dirty secrets if they wanna act all high and mighty about Americans. I'm so tired of their obnoxious egos, false sense of self-importance, and self-aggrandizement they try to justify by pretending they don't have skeletons in their closets, too. They looove to call americans self-centered as if they can enter any conversation without immediately going "well i'm EUROPEAN [and you should be impressed by that] and how DARE you not research and study my country's culture and history (not the violent part and especially not what we did to africa asia and the american continents tho aha) before you made a random post on the internet when i don't even follow you. Americans are so full of themselves, they didn't even research everything about me specifically before talking to themselves on their own blog."
And TBH if Americans weren't right about british "food" (pey whet??? Lmfao????) brits wouldn't get so butthurt and defensive and immediately go "yeah well you don't have healthcare 😋" like damn 0-60 real fast, must have hit a nerve a little too close to home, huh? Go back to bootlicking for your monarchy and preaching to everyone about how it's fine to have one ackshually and shut the fuck up about how bitter and jealous you are that americans make tasty food. (Lbr here. No country has a monopoly on tasty food)
i love the UK and find it a very beautiful place, but same as anywhere, there's people who really hate americans for no discernable reasons and just want to see everything we do and say in the worst light even when we're obviously joking around. it's just like can yall lighten up please for once in your life lol. and yeah it's always odd when anyone not just brits try and attack americans for the trauma we go through at the hands of our government. like wow thanks you really showed me!🙄
and you're so right most all countries have delicious food and i do think i'm lucky as an american to have grown up where i did because i had access to a lot of other cultural cuisines just because of the larger city i lived in. i feel very sorry for people who don't get the same access and variety that most americans do, we get to try so much and it's wonderful lol

Thoughts on the tour cancellation? I’m so torn because as an American fan, I know I don’t have the right to speak for Asian Louies and it’s okay for them to be angry and upset. They’ve been waiting 8 years and once again they get the short end of the stick. At the same time I don’t think it’s Louis’ fault at all. He was so excited to tour Asia. I think his team has handled this in the worst way possible (what’s new🙄) but I don’t think he deserves to be slammed like he has been. Asian fans didn’t deserve to hear it from live nation or Twitter update accounts. His team 1000% should have and still should put out a statement. There’s no way they didn’t know a couple days in advance. I do find it incredibly strange that the only news we’ve heard from Louis or his team is a measly paragraph tweet apologizing. The difference from him breaking his arm and posting x rays and a notes app apology because he had to cancel a few signings and one show, to canceling an entire leg of tour and only writing a couple sentences is super weird and leads me to believe he can’t say anything else. The whole situation is messed up and I hope he’s okay.
oh boy ok i haven’t been tracking this closely today, so if anything new happened that i missed i could be completely off here…
i really feel for all of the fans in asia because they get the short end of the stick too often :( this is giving “harry cancelling his chicago show day-of via ticketmaster” and i’m really not sure what to think. shit happens sometimes, and we have to accept the disappointment knowing the decision is probably what was best for the person we care about. i believe harry didn’t owe us any explanation even though we wanted one, but hshq absolutely did owe us an announcement (and honestly an apology…both of which we didn’t get, but LA did!). i feel the same about louis.
we are never owed a look into harry or louis’ personal lives, but louis is so adamant that there’s a symbiotic relationship between himself and the fans…so the way this is being handled is very odd and makes me think something very personal is going on. i don’t blame louis for the response, but i’m inclined to blame his team.
as we’ve seen time and time again louis is in charge of a lot, but he has people working for him behind the scenes. he’s not the kind of guy to get every tweet pre-approved by a pr team, but i have a feeling he’s not in charge of the response here. even if he is, lthq still should have been the ones to announce it.
performing is his passion, but it’s also his job. regardless of how fun his shows are and how close we feel to him there, it’s essentially a transactional experience. his team knows this. it’s disappointing if your friend backs out of a coffee date with no explanation, but there are no stakes. if an artist backs out of shows, there was time and money invested on many fronts. when his team spends so much time pushing genuineness and transparency on us through aotv, it’s strange that all we have is a remix of every other apology tweet over the years. they absolutely dropped the ball on this one, and i feel so bad for him for the backlash he’s getting.
we are never owed an explanation, but we are owed the courtesy of hearing it directly from the artist (aka their team). that’s the bare minimum in my opinion. my guess is there’s something going on with louis. if there’s something serious he’s dealing with, the burden of making this difficult announcement (and blame for its inadequacy) should absolutely not fall on him, but on lthq and lthq only. there’s obviously a lot of nuance to decisions like this, so it’s hard to assign blame when we truly have no idea. i hope he’s alright, and my heart goes out to the fans whose shows were cancelled.

So my point is I don't think they see things.The same way we do when we watch these shows that show this racial tension! So they should do focus groups over seas like with the rookie t v show. And when they see the white guy, i'm getting accused of racism by the black guy, and then the white guy setting up the black guy, how do they see it? Because they're used to sometimes ethnic Clashes, but they're not used to racial clashes.... And so when a white person interacts with them in these countries, do they automatically assume the white person is racist??????
Because my experience growing up that a particular minority group, it perceives white people to be just racist????? It's not that they experience any racism for white people 🙄 But everything they see on tv and then read in history related to the slave trade, that white people are just racist!!!!! So as I pointed out that 44.2% A black male is more likely to attack a white person... The point is, growing up in this perspective that things are still the same and that white people are extremely unfair.It's untrue!!!! But the narrative continues, and I don't think it's doing well... Because it's ingraining this multi generational hatred towards white people.....
So you keep this narrative about reparations, and all these things that white people are unfair, like they've been taking down the statues in Chicago, because supposedly, they were these horrible people that were slave. Owners and because they were slave owners, they must have tortured black people... That they didn't give em these great opportunities for education and advancement, and give them all kinds of other benefits, which, if you read about jefferson and others, that's exactly what they did...
Thomas Jefferson's treatment of his slaves was typical for the time and region, but some say he was kind and indulgent. Jefferson owned over 600 slaves during his lifetime, and some say his slaves were rarely punished unless they fought or stole. They were also allowed to participate in events like weddings, parties, and barbecues, and were tried for offenses as if they were in court, where they could defend themselves. Some who worked in Jefferson's main house, including descendants of Hemings, have described him as "kind and indulgent".

But what i'm saying is, when kanye west took away taylor swift's award and said it belonged to beyonce.He was making a statement about the music industry being racially unfair!!!!!
So this is why I point out the first all black college 1837. So the united states offered college educations and advanced educations to black people back at the beginning of the eighteen hundreds.....

They can bring in student athletes from these black populations around the world into america to train athletically, and be student athletes as well as expand into those countries....
How do I think as I stated?We should change this mindset.... That constantly honored t v shows that white people are played as the racist... It's one thing, if you play white people as the criminal and we do have black and white people playing criminals.But when you play this racist card, I don't think it does anyone good.... 🤔 So I think like the tv show hannibal.The fbi agent was lawrence fishburn, who was black, but the whole premise was good guy bad guy... So, even the serial killer jeffrey dahmer, it had nothing to do with racism... It had to do where he lived and where the gay bars were located. They were located in black neighborhoods. So it wasn't that he was targeting black people, he was looking for gay males and the bars he went to primarily had black gay males.... So it had nothing to do with race...
Now i'm not saying that some people are are more attracted or less attracted the people of the opposite race.This does happen. But this is preference not racism....
True racism is when you do something to somebody because of their color and they have done nothing to you. So you have no bad history with a person of the opposite color. And you just hate them. Which I found out I haven't truly found any of them now, I found people that might people of that color more or less, but I haven't found anyone who has negative feelings that didn't have a grudge or we're brought up to believe those people were bad.... Meaning they didn't have any experience with those people, but we're told by friends or family that these people are bad, bad, bad, bad. But again, as I found those people that are told, they are bad wait to see if they're good or bad to them.... So they want confirmation before they confirm the information. So actions do speak louder than words. So if their first actions with that person or interactions with that person of another race is negative richardson, all they heard were negativity that confirms it..... That's why they always say, put your best foot forward...
As the famous saying goes, you never have a second chance to make a first impression, and, for better or worse, those first impressions tend to stick.Mar 14, 2023

So when people go to the olympics, they're meeting people from all different countries, and everybody's looking at everybody else, so hopefully everybody is trying to make a good first impression. And competing fairly is making a great first impression....
So the olympics, the international olympic committee should do the sum seven hours before the athletes of each country before they head to the olympics, about protocol related to interacting. And what to do if you have a language barrier. Truly what to do if there is a language barrier, and how to overcome the language barrier....
This is very important for law enforcement, like in France, right now that they did seminars, teaching law. Enforcement, because people are coming from all over the world, how the overcome language barriers... And yes, even for all the businesses in paris and they can put out public service announcements as well.It's how to address language barriers...
10 ways to overcome language barriers
Plan ahead. ...
Have a translation app handy. ...
Learn a few essential phrases. ...
Find a tutor. ...
Avoid idioms and slang. ...

How to Overcome Language Barriers to Communication
https://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&client=ms-android-comcast-us-rvc3&source=android-browser&q=Ways+to+overcome+a+language+barrier
So it's interesting now, if there's a tragedy, something happens and they have to evacuate these big stadiums full of people of every language, and if there's not a common language, they got to know how they communicate to everybody.So they know what's going on.... So the olympics, it's a place when it happens that you have the greatest language barriers, ethnic barriers and many other barriers, and not only with the athletes, but with the fan base.... So this creates a situation where Paris is an international city. Where it can gain great expertise on how to overcome these international barriers, language and culture and religious for their first responders for their government, for their businesses that deal with tourists.... So this is a chance for paris.To refine themselves and make themselves a better international city....

"Not almost Asias top model anon,Asia’s actual top model.At least thet isn’t a crazy stalker."
Dear Anon from Rangoon, K is definitely an stalker, but GTGT definitely didn't win the Asian Top Model show... so he/she is definitely not the Asian Top Model, and in not even in his/her way to become any of that.
I have met extremely beautiful Asian models from different countries, and that person, is definitely not one of them.
Smh. 🙄🙄🙄

I read The Rules of Scoundrels series after reading an ask somebody sent you and was thoroughly amused because of the inclusion of Turkey and a Turkish man and I was taken aback because I rarely find Turkish (or even Turkic in general) characters in books I read. The Turkish man's name being inaccurate and Nick's Turkish nickname being very questionable was super funny. (Durukhan is not and has never been a Turkish name and bulan,which is Nick's nickname in the East means "the one who finds",not hunter and it would not be used as a cool nickname lol) If Rock's actual name was supposed to be a last name it's even funnier bc we didn't have last names/family names back then. The one city name that gets mentioned (Ankara) is accurate tho 💀(Vaguely talking about the entire country instead of talking about the specific locations inside the country seems to be a thing in HR when it comes to non Western countries) At least the guy was actually charming and sweet and that was nice bc I braced myself for the barbarian brute stereotype and nobody made any comments about "how the Turks are" so,it's a win,I guess? 😁 (I did cringe at the speech about how dance is more sensual in the East,especially in India and how the dude can't teach the girl about the things he learned there bc they are things good English ladies don't learn 🙄) The book wasn't even about the Turkish man (Whose name I can't acknowledge without laughing) but I was on guard from beginning to end everytime he showed up. I was like "Oh??? 👀 Tell me more about what's going on with Rock and his kind eyes 🗣🗣"
First, genuinely thank you because I learnt a lot while reading this, and it was also very funny. It's been over two years since I read Ten Ways to Be Adored When Landing a Lord by Sarah MacLean and it admittedly wasn't one of my favorites.
Regarding the naming conventions and translation errors, it isn't new from what I've seen within the genre. One of the bigger fuck-ups I've noted previously was the Bridgerton show choosing to give Kate the "Indian" name "Kathani", a name which isn't actually a name anyone gives their child in real life. Then there's the smaller nickname mess in Scarlett Scott's Earl of Every Sin in which the hero has the "dastardly" Spanish nickname "El Corazon Oscuro" which means "The Dark Heart" but the actual nickname in Spanish sounds more funny than menacing. Like, "El Oscuro" alone would have been a little better. So I totally get how an author not from this culture would a) create an inaccurate name with no meaning when the meaning of the name is very important in many Eastern cultures and b) give a white man a ridiculous nickname that's basically a translation error.
Also LOL regarding the dance thing, I don't know what kind of dancing Nick is talking about but the reason he'd be unable to teach the heroine how to dance that way is more likely because it requires years of intensive study, not because it's "sensual" or "improper" or some fetishizing bullshit.
That being said, I'm glad the author managed to avoid the worst stereotypes about men from Turkey (or the East or Asia in general) and I'm glad you enjoyed!

Full disclaimer, I'm a monolingual American from a privileged background (though I suspect that much would be pretty obvious frim reading).
I think part of the reason Americans always act like everything should be translated not just to English, but to American English is because up until very recently, almost everything WAS "translated" for us.
We Americans are so babied about language & culture, it's embarrassing. The Harry Potter books had to be "translated" because apparently we couldn't be trusted to figure out that a jumper was a sweater. I heard about an author of a true crime book just last year complaining about how "mum" had to be changed to "mom" for US release.
Then there's the American idea of exceptionalism which shows up not just as "we're the best, why would you want anything else?" but also as "wow, how weird are you for liking something that's FOREIGN?" At least when I was growing up, if you watched or read stuff in any other European language you're a snob. If you like anything from Asia you're a weirdo. (Of course, during my formative years, I was implicitly taught that Africa and South America did not produce any media worth consuming. If they had, clearly it would have been on TV because American TV had the best of everything /sarcasm)
Like when I got into anime in the 90s, Sailor Moon episode sequences had to be mirrored so american kids wouldn't get confused about the cars driving on the wrong side of the road, half the characters in anime were constantly eating "jelly donuts" because we apparently had no chance of comprehending rice balls. I was freaking astounded when Netflix started hosting K dramas with only subtitles, no dubs. Just the other week I was watching an anime that actually kept the honorifics in the dubbed version and my jaw dropped because I remember my friends and I (pre-speedy internet) trying to parse mysterious words like "chan" and "kun." My well educated and generally liberal father reacted to my announcement that I was going to study Japanese in college (10 years ago) by listing the war crimes committed by Japan in WW2 (tell me you have a white American dad without telling me you have a white American dad 🙄).
It's also the way foreign languages are taught in US schools. Not just the fact that we start late, but that it's rarely viewed as a priority. I distinctly remember thinking "why am I learning French? Even if I ever go to France I'm only gonna visit for like a week, definitely not enough to need a whole language." There was almost no effort made to explain that 1) there are other countries that speak French, 2) there are people IN THE US who speak French as a first language and 3) you'll have a much better time overseas if you don't come off as a dumb American tourist. Culture being tied to language was never addressed at all. And I went to a well funded private high school where half the teachers held PhDs with language teachers were native speakers. (Actually I think it was one of my French teachers who explained that we 15 year olds were too old to really learn a language successfully, so that's awesome)
Do not get me wrong, this is not an excuse for Americans being, ya know, American about language and cultural literacy. But this is not an easy mentality to shake and pointing it out to a lot of your fellow Americans will get you a rant about how ungrateful you are for "attacking" the best country in the world. Sometimes I look back on the kind of cultural censorship that is so damn prevalent even now and it gives me a headache because this whole country feels like a cult sometimes. I wish I could have studied language earlier in life, I wish I would have seen it as more than just a graduation requirement, and I wish I had the time to prioritize it now, but I didn't and I can't.

Super annoyed by the fact that every time I tell someone I watch asian series and movies they are like “Ah... animes. I am not really into that. It’s always too much.” and then refuse to listen when I try to tell them that whole south/east asia is capable of doing more than just animated kids shows (I know animes aren’t just for kids but THEY do think that way).
Or then the only non-anime they know is “Squid Game” because they went with the hype, though they also rarely know that this one is NOT japanese 🙄

Oh, I am a simple woman. I see "send me HCs" and do precisely that!
For your precious babies: 🛍, 🗣, 🥓, and ✈️!
lin hiii thank youuu for sending this in lin 💖
(send me some) domestic headcanons!
grocery shopping 🛍: ugh nothing very interesting here these two are those boring annoying people who meticulously sit down each week and make a list of stuff to buy and then stick to it like 90% of the time (could not be me 🙄) this man however, his horrified with the fact that she lovesss that cheap grocery store boxed wine because he’s a snob- “brooks, i have one of the most refined liquor cabinets why the hell would you ever want to drink this watered-down garbage.” she doesn’t listen to him and gets it’s anyway though shsjsk
arguments 🗣: shockingly, these two don’t actually argue all that much. i think it mainly comes down to the fact that they are very similar in the sense that they both need time to open up and communicate and so neither really pushes the other until they’re ready to talk. but sometimes that lack of verbal communication can cause issues— sometimes when either person is feeling jealous/ insecure/ not appreciated — they both just bottle it up until it results in a big blowout about something trivial (when it truly just stems from those pent-up feelings) they do get better at it though <3 also of course- her career. when she decides to stay in boston he thinks she’s doing it for him and he scared he’s getting in the way of her career. that leads to a massive fight but lana tells him that her whole life she’s put her career first and now she’s finally at a place where she can balance love and a career and she definitely wants to be in boston.
breakfast in bed 🥓: hsjsks they both are pretty decent cooks and love to cook for one another especially when either of them has had a rather shitty or long day. but my girl is NOT a morning person, so ethan is almost always the one doing the ‘breakfast in bed’ thing <3 they’re both very busy in the mornings though so it’s not a very common occurrence- but he does it whenever he can because in my hc acts of service is one of his love languages and his way to show her that it’s okay to not be hyper-independent and have to do everything yourself (a lesson they both really really need to learn)
vacation ✈️: i think the both of them absolutely love traveling. lana used to travel a lot when she was younger because she was a rich trust fund kid 🥴 but she only ever enjoyed those vacations when her dad wasn’t around and left her to her own devices while he went to work. as much as she loves vacations- she doesn’t feel comfortable with ethan paying for the majority of it even though he literally doesn’t care. so until lana makes a substantial amount of money almost all of their vacations are local and something more within her price range. but once they’re both older and well established in their careers? they travel all the time- europe, australia, asia you name it. good for them 💖

Galaxy: Uh.. Diego.. the ground is cracking...WAY wider..
The ground opened and Galaxy fell in.. Diego grabbed her arm, holding on.. while Galaxy looks at the Lava..
Tumblr media
Galaxy: !?! *Climbs up* *terrified*...😨
Diego: are you okay-?
Galaxy: yeah...
Suddenly the tentacles swooped Galaxy away, landed on mushrooms
Galaxy: *rubs her head* uh...!? Diego?? Where are-!...oh. right, he's back there and I'm over here. What should I do before he gets eaten??........ Kill it! Wha-?? Um... well...*sees a sharp needle and a Match on the ground*.....😐..😈
Meanwhile Diego keeps attacking the creature that's unknown..
Diego: Ugh...
Creature: *hisses and ready to eliminate him*
Diego: *about to use his powers*...!?!
A needle with flames was thrown and it stabbed the creature's head...then pass out
Galaxy: See? I'm smart ☺️
Diego: *rolls eyes* sure.
Galaxy: *helps him up* We should continue looking for Queen Cordelia, but maybe I should grab first aid.
Diego: Galaxy, I don't need first a-
Galaxy: *gets a big leaf and glitter*
Diego: *raises eyebrows* 🤨, glitter?? A leaf?? Now how's that goi-
Galaxy sprinkles glitter on the leaf and wraps them together around Diego's arm injury
Galaxy: You'll thank me later, right now, let's just go.
Diego: *blinks in confusion while looking at his arm*....???
The journey still continues...
The end...
But it's just the beginning..🦋
Diego belongs to @king-trollex-fan

got any married couple romance recs? preferably with a sub male?
I've got some, but I wish I could be more help with that since I very rarely read works with established relationships, much less married (as in, I actively avoid them) or when the couple barely knows each other but decided to tie the knot anyway on their own free will so the relationship can be more developed later. I only like it when it's a case of arranged marriage or marriage of convenience (being life and romantic partners is not what they have in mind at first).
In the case of established relationships, I don't think I have a lot to give you, but if it's the cohabitation or first the arrangement for whatever reason and then the love, I have some to offer.
OTOYOMEGATARI / A BRIDE'S STORY (AL / MAL / MU)
*ongoing, with 13 vols (100 chs scanlated as of 2022-02-20)
This is a famous one, but why not mention. It starts with an arranged marriage between a 20 year old and a 12 year old in the 19th century, and I guess not many people would go for it. Because of that (and the genre), you won't see anything sexual and outright romantic between them, just a tentative partnership and a build up of a life together as is expected of them (it's mostly about the daily lives of married/betrothed women in Central Asia in that time period). It's not sub male, though :/ but the girl seems to be somewhat dominant and he seems to be a sweet lil guy.
NE NE NE (AL / MAL / MU)
7 chs / 1 vol, completely scanlated
Again, not sub male unfortunately (and if you want my honest opinion it's kinda boring... But plenty of people like it). Arranged marriage again between a 16 year old girl and a 37 year old guy.
ADARSHAN NO HANAYOME / THE BRIDE OF ADARSHAN (AL / MAL / MU)
9 chs / 2 vols, completely scanlated
Another arranged marriage with a big age gap... He's a teen/young adult and she's only a kid. Nothing romantic and nothing exciting. No sub male again 😔. I would say this one is a bit boring too 😐 only seemed intriguing to see how the hell they would handle a royal marriage between a kid and a young adult... But they chose to deal with that by not dealing with that. At the end of the story they're more like older brother and little sister.
GOMASHIO TO PUDDING / SESAME SALT AND PUDDING (AL / MAL / MU)
20 chs / 3 vols, completely scanlated
Marriage of convenience + big age gap (no kiddies this time, she's in her 20s) + not sub male again. Talented, beautiful, incredible, amazing, show stopping etc. I really love this one. They start as strangers but build something really strong and touching.
CONFLICT LOVER / LOVERS IN CONFLICT (AL / MAL / MU)
3 chs / 1 vol, completely scanlated
Another arranged marriage with age gap (she's a teen and he's an adult) and the ML is that typical shoujo dominant guy I detest.
SHINIGAMIHIME NO SAIKON / THE PRINCESS OF DEATH'S SECOND MARRIAGE (AL / MAL / MU)
14 chs / 3 vols, completely scanlated
Also arranged marriage with a bit of an age gap (I think she's a teen) with no sub male. Also kinda boring.
SOREDEMO SEKAI WA UTSUKUSHII / THE WORLD IS STILL BEAUTIFUL (AL / MAL / MU)
150 chs / 25 vols, completely scanlated
Arranged marriage + age gap + no sub male. She's an older teen and the boy is only like 11 or 12 but he acts like an older teenager for some reason (he's one of those prodigy characters as if that would make them not be a kid too 🙄). I do like this one, but it's one of those stories where there is a sh0ta only for looks but he acts and talks like an older person, so that aspect is completely disregarded.
Oh and here, have two smutty one shots (second is a sequel of the first) with a married couple. Second one is better than the first (1st one is iffy on consent, but second one is better, even if it tries to lampshade that aspect in a dismissive manner. Oh and in the 2nd one the husband is more subby. Overall he is not exactly a sub male, but he is a massive simp).
I left out titles that had only the cohabitation aspect or an arranged future marriage.
Now, from the stuff I'm planning to read:
KOUKYUU-HI NO KANRININ / MANAGER OF THE INNER PALACE (AL / MAL / MU)
*ongoing with 3 vols / 2 chs scanlated :/
AKA the only title on the Married Couple + Submissive Male Lead combo tags on MU hahahaha it's about an arranged marriage between a woman and a cross dressing younger guy. It's adapted from a light novel that is still releasing, so if that's your thing, you could look that up too because I'm sure there's a lot more story there.
DANNA-SAN WA ONEE-SAN / MY HUSBAND IS A HOUSEWIFE (AL / MAL / MU)
24 chs / 3 vols, only 11 chs scanlated
This is a role reversal married couple and I'm pretty sure the Onee in the title is a term in Japan for effeminate men, even though I was only familiar with it in a transvestite/cross dresser/(maybe even prejudice against actual trans women) meaning.
GOKUSHUFUDOU / THE WAY OF THE HOUSEHUSBAND (AL / MAL / MU)
*ongoing with 8 vols / 87 chs scanlated
Seems to be sub male 👀 I'm not sure how focused on the couple itself it is (not much, I suspect). I think it's a comedy focused only on the husband. Anyway, it's a famous one, you must know it better than me.
ITONAMI ITONAMEZU / NEVER ENDING (AL / MAL / MU)
*ongoing with 6 vols / 9 chs scanlated
This seems to be a sweet story about two shy people who decided to get married first and build the intimacy after. I don't know if he's submissive, but he seems very gentle and pure from the cover.
KISS YORI MO HAYAKU / FASTER THAN A KISS (AL / MAL / MU)
58 chs / 12 vols, completely scanlated
This story is apparently about a girl who loses her parents and needs to drop out of school to support her brother, but then her teacher goes after her and proposes marriage. He doesn't give off sub vibes, but anything is possible. Oh and I'm not sure if they marry at the beginning or the end.. There's also a 5 chapter sequel.
TONIKAKU KAWAII / FLY ME TO THE MOON (AL / MAL / MU)
*ongoing with 19 vols / 180 chs scanlated
I think this one is pretty famous too. Seems to be about their newlywed life (he asks her out, but she wants to marry him instead and he agrees lmao). He looks kinda subby but I can't know for sure until I read it.
TENDOU-KE MONOGATARI / THE TALES OF TENDOU FAMILY (AL / MAL / MU)
*ongoing, with 10 vols / 39 chs scanlated
Apparently the main girl swaps place with a girl who was betrothed and the main guy sees through her disguise. I'm not sure if the marriage happens at the beginnning. Oh, and he really doesn't seem like a sub.
TAISHOU OTOME OTOGIBANASHI / TAISHOU MAIDEN FAIRYTALE (AL / MAL / MU)
42 chs / 5 vols, completely scanlated
His family bought her and sent her to him as a wife. Apparently she is a young teen and he is a young adult. This manga seems to be a very good rating (and it even has an anime adaptation) but I don't know if it's because it takes the subject matters seriously (she is literally a kid slave 😶) or because it's a picturesque romantic thing where those aspects are ignored.
SPY X FAMILY (AL / MAL / MU)
*ongoing with 8 vols / 60 chs scanlated
This is also very famous and I actually haven't even decided if I want to read it yet. It's a pretend marriage because they're spies, but it's a shounen manga and it doesn't seem to be a romance.
ORE GA AKUMA DE, AITSU GA YOME DE. / I'M A DEVIL AND THAT'S MY BRIDE (AL / MAL / MU)
16 chs / 2 vols, completely scanlated
This one is about a demon who needs to collect souls in exchange for wishes and he meets a little girl who asks for him to marry her. Since it's with a kid I doubt there's much romance, maybe it's more of a comedy. Most likely not Sub Male.
MITSUYOKON: TSUKUMOGAMI NO YOMEGORYOU (AL / MAL / MU)
39 chs / 8 vols, only 31 chs scanlated
Seems to be a marriage of convenience between a a girl and a god. Looks like it's also a little smutty so I don't know how well that bodes for consent.
MARRY ME! (AL / MAL / MU)
99 chs + epilogue / 11 vols, 103 chs on LINE webtoon (yeah, not sure how that works)
The two get married because of an experimental new law (I think she didn't even know she was signed up for it).
HABEAGUI SINBU / THE BRIDE OF THE WATER GOD (AL / MAL / MU)
176 ch / 24 vol, only 157 chs scanlated
Another one about a girl and a god getting married (arranged). He's tagged as "unorthodox male love insterest", so that sounds good for us tired of domineering cool guys (could be just appearance though).
NATSUME ARATA NO KEKKON / ARATA NATSUME GETTING MARRIED (AL / MAL / MU)
*ong with 7 vols / 10 chapters scanlated
I don't exactly understand the situation from the synopsis, but it seems to be some kind of marriage between a guy and a serial killer...? Look, I added this one because it's by Nogizaka Tarou hahaha
ZETTTAI HEIWA DAISAKUSEN / ABSOLUTE PEACE STRATEGY (AL / MAL / MU)
20 chs / 4 vols, completely scanlated
Political marriage between two royals from fighting kingdoms, but they don't like each other.
And that's what I have in terms of titles. I'm sorry if you already know most of them and I would say sorry for all the implied l0li/sh0ta, but you know what kind of blog this is lol. Oh and I didn't include any F/F because you mentioned sub male, but let me know if you're up for it.
The more I can offer is some links for MU tags (all of them excluding H*ntai, Yaoi, Yuri, Shounen Ai and Shoujo Ai because it's what I'm assuming you're not interested in). They're ordered by rating so you may see a lot of the same titles at the top (you may order them the way you prefer).
Marriage
Married Couple
Newlyweds
Arranged Marriage
Political Marriage
Married Protagonist
Married Couple + Reversed Gender Roles
Married Couple + Role Reversal
Arranged Marriage + Reversed Gender Roles
Arranged Marriage + Role Reversal
Now, I wouldn't trust MU's tagging too much... Sometimes things that would be what you're looking for are not there because they are a slightly different concept (a lot of manga with submissive male types are not listed) or they can put the tag for even something minor and not the premise or an important element of the manga. If I were you, I'd probably scroll through the marriage tags and vibe check the male lead instead of staying only on the marriage + sub combo.
I also would recommend searching for words like Yome (or Bride) and Kekkon (or Marry, Married, Marriage etc) in any Manga List site, since a lot of titles sound self explanatory. Oh and be wary of long series in MU where the cover is them in marriage attire, they prob just tied the knot at the end (MU sometimes puts the last volume available as cover)
Anyway, I hope you find what you're looking for :) and let me know if you want more stuff with fiancés or simply cohabitation.
