Steph: Please? For me? Pete: Dont do that... Steph: What? Pete: You think that whenever you say "please, for me," that I'll just do anything you want! Well, guess what, not this time. Steph: Please? For me? Pete: ... okay.

listen if you see shadowpeach as brothers thats fine but you have to accept that its a HEADCANON cause it hasnt been confirmed in the lmk series. im not gonna say you cant get upset at people for shipping them, you're entitled to your own feelings, but you cant go around forcing your headcanon onto people who just dont see it the way you do. headcanons are just that, in your head, made up. im sick of people arguing about this (mostly on tiktok and twitter) just mind your own business

Reg: why not!?

James: because you know how competitive you get, and whilst I say its cute, others disagree and I'm lying

I have traveled to more than 25 countries, territories and regions (that should be technically considered countries). I have dealt with straight up racism traveling abroad, though the levels vary. Sometimes it’s staring, other times it’s hair touching or rude questions and comments. Most of the time it is Islamophobia that gets me stopped in the airport.

Yup, you heard that right.

I was born in a Muslim country and was later adopted by an American couple. My biological family is Muslim as far as I can tell. And I have Kazakhstan listed in my passport as country of origin. Which means I have gotten stopped in most airports for some reason or another. I was once pulled aside for a full body search in Hong Kong. When I was 8 years old. When I travel, I carry copies of my Kazakh birth certificate, American birth certificate, passport, whatever visas and travel/vaccination documents I need, because I have been stopped in transit because of these documents at some point in time.

I am somewhat protected by my dad’s last name, which is a somewhat common Norwegian last name, especially in America. The first time I traveled abroad solo was the first time I had to take into consideration how visibly Jewish I wanted to be. I didn’t bring my copy of “Ashkenazi Herbalism” to Türkiye, because my mom was worried I would get stopped and searched in the airport (like I normally do). I also left my hamsa with Hebrew on it at home for the same reason. I also took into consideration how queer I wanted to present myself. So I took my pronouns down from my social media accounts.

I am preparing to go to Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan this summer, and I’m running through the same list of questions. Do I keep my brightly dyed hair? Do I leave my hamsa and Magen David at home? Do I take down anything on my social media that screams queer Jew?

I know some of this is just my anxiety talking, because I have traveled for the last 20 years with very little serious issues. I can brush off casual comments about my “not quite Chinese eyes” (actual quote from a guy on my team in Türkiye) or the typical questions about where I’m “really from”. It has to be a real good insult for me to take it seriously, because I grew up in a fairly toxic school environment. So I’m sure I’ll be fine, especially since two months of this trip, I will be very far away from modern civilization. The only people I have to worry about are the people I’ll be living with during that time and I can handle American racism and stupidity.

Unpopular opinion: people don't get to choose what kind of family they're born into, and this includes people whose families have more wealth. But people do choose whether or not to be assholes to those people, based on stereotypes and presumptions (about ego, attitude, etc) that may or may not actually be true for that person. And in those cases, the person with the wealth isn't the issue.

I know someone who got an inheritance and every time we talked about it, they started crying. They felt so guilty because they didn't "deserve the money" and they knew how hard it is for someone to get that amount, and they just wanted their parents back.

Don't be an asshole to someone based on the circumstances of their birth, period.

genuinely like the nicest thing ever when someone has a tag for you. like to know you so consistently exist in their mind that they dedicate an entire portion of their online existence out for you. that they see so many things that remind them of you that they have to keep em organized

no one should have to live with childhood trauma for any reason

no one should have to twist and bend and break their authenticity for anyone else
