BOYCOTT MICROSOFT GAMES (incl. games by blizzard, bethesda, mojang, and obsidian)
lok ming 樂明, 25, it/its, tme. aka @eastgaysian. this is my gamer's den for primarily dragon age and rogue trader, which is to say i post all kinds of bullshit and never maintag anything
doodle tag + 'polished' art + writing. i think lyrium causes impotence and thedosian women are subject to the andraste-witch dichotomy.
don't make me tap the sign (read the wretched of middle earth by charles w. mills)

How do I explain to you people that interracial relationships are okay
Not every white person dating a POC is fetishizing. White people can be respectful and responsible when it comes to culture and relationships and not everyone has bad intentions.
Asian people can date Black people without you saying shit like “your kids will be so pretty” they’re not dating for pretty kids. They’re dating bc they like each other.
Someone can dress their partner in clothing from their culture if they want. Someone can take their partner to cultural events if they want.
People in relationships can share cultures, experiences and love without it being toxic or skin deep.
Their partner isn’t culturally appropriating. Their partner is being shown the ultimate form of love, bc their partner trusts them and loves them enough to share their history and heritage.
Yeah, dating someone from your culture is nice bc you automatically have similar experiences. But you’re not limited to dating people with the same experiences. Loving someone is sharing and growing and being together.
Interracial relationships aren’t always toxic, and some of y’all need to stop projecting onto other people.
Have i ever bothered trying to come up with an explanation for why my korean hawkes got the korean name while bethany and carver are bethany and carver. No. And i won't
really very funny of me to be a stickler about oc lore in the way that i have to decide my trans oc's birthnames and they should be thematic and everything and then i don't mention them ever because it feels weird
the silver dragon xelliren was telling me adventurers keep succumbing to madness instead of conquering the tenebrous depths and defeating the spawn of rovagug so i asked how many adventurers he has and he said he just goes out and finds a new adventurer to give his quest afterwards so i said it sounds like he's just feeding adventurers to the madness of the dungeons and then the dude who sells stuff he loots off of the adventurer's corpses started calling himself the really especially most honest guy
i wasn't a fan of the midnight isles but experiencing tenebrous depths as the clear midnight isles precursor is like. Oh i see. it could've been worse. <- guy who needs to stop playing the dungeon crawling dlcs when it doesn't care without a supporting story. midnight isles does have more interesting encounter design though as well imo
hey im really normal about this and i just heard a jae and heinrix banter that genuinely had me looney tunes eyes boggling out of my head whistling smoke coming out my ears etc

at a certain point the question is simply, are you willing to care about other people being treated unfairly when it not only doesn't directly benefit you, but might actually directly disadvantage you? (or, to be more honest, remove an advantage that you have come to view as a natural part of the world?) the fact is that many people's answer to that is no, and this is a position they have come to hold out of fully rational self-interest. and you're not going to argue them out of this position when the core principles they're acting on are entirely detached from whatever sense of compassion you're trying to elicit.
there's some amount of accidental insight when you see transandrobros sealioning trans women asking for a reason to care about transmisogyny. for men as a class, for transmisogyny exempt people as a whole, there is not a compelling reason to care about transmisogyny. you already benefit from it! you are clearly already highly invested in turning transmisogyny to your advantage and it seems like you want to continue doing so! you as an individual are simply going to have to develop some fucking principles

What's the deal with dogheaded men? I was reading some early arthurian texts and those guys were always fighting dogheaded men, with absolutely no explanation given. Was it a common mythical monster? Was it a metaphor?
dont store a knife with the point facing down, it damages the blade. no, dont do that either. when you store it with the point facing up you might accidentally hurt yourself when you try to grab it. dont store a knife at all actually. your blade must never leave your hand, always ready, ruthless and waiting. you know deep down that ever since you learned the stench of blood you will never be able to cast it aside. or just get a sheath for it i guess.
