I don't know why people are insulting all kpop stans since Elon decided to buy Twitter. Look at the kpop community here. All you will find are translators for tweets, People who repost the idol's tweets or posts on their blog for Tumblr people to see, people who hold civil conversations about cultural appropriation, fanfic writers, artists, people who share gifs or videos of concerts or funny moments and other stans who simply appreciate kpop idols.
Not all stans are delusional. It's just that there are some people on Twitter who have gone completely overboard in support of these idols. If you are worried about them then clarify that it's the kpop twiterrati that you don't want. Don't insult everyone in the kpop community just because you have the wrong notion about them.
Take @bang-tan, @blackpinkofficial, @bangtanmemesarchive, @blackpink @jenniekimblackpink , @bangtancorrect as an example. They are perfectly civil and have fun with their blog (except for @blackpinkofficial which is a now dead blog but was nice to have)
Gonna reblog this so you can see more notes. This post needs them.
Anyway, sarees are a cultural garment of South Asia and have nothing to do with religion. If you aren't Desi then don't wear them unless you're among us. As in actually in South Asia, or visiting or living among a South Asian diaspora community, at a Desi cultural event or religious space, or any instance where a Desi person invites you to wear them. Those cases are simply cultural assimilation, which is a mark of respect, so you're very welcome. Some Desi people might be uncomfortable with it if you're wearing it as a cultural showcase, like a Bollywood dance on stage, and they're allowed to be. It goes without saying that this also applies to lehenga and shalwar kameez, although those are widespread in Middle Eastern culture as well, so those dress rules can be extended to those spaces in the same way.
Cultural appropriation is primarily an immigrant and diaspora minority issue. Not that it doesn't impact the people living in our native countries, but its effects are felt first and foremost by the ones who actually have to integrate into white society.
Do buy sarees from South Asian designers and sellers, if you have appropriate events where other people will also be wearing them. That's cultural patronage. Make your own dresses out of the saree cloth. That's cultural exchange.
And if you're confused about what a white person is, it's a white-skinned person of European origin. Not whether someone is pale or tan. Hope that helps. 🌸🌸🌸🤗
White people please reblog. Thank you.

Rupert???? The silver band is his ring for sure. Tatiana's insanity started from the demon pox attack. It is common for people who underwent trauma to try to see how things could have turned out different after overanalyzing their traumatic experience. Maybe, Rupert's strength got stronger due to the manner of enchantment placed on the dagger rather than it's relations. He may also have known Elias well. Feel free to add your thoughts for this ramble while I do my sehri in preparation for my Roza.
Happy Ramadan

what’s the opposite of “i ship it”? i don’t mean anti-shipping i mean more along the lines of “this couple got together in canon and i want front rows seats to their future bloody bloody divorce“
Love it.

Baba is urdu for dad. It's grandma in other languages. Try something different.
suggestions for gender neutral version of mom/dad? something less formal than just ‘parent’
@mouseprotector21 Keep this in mind. Have fun.
I’m know I’m not the first person to say this, but any newbies on tumblr really need to understand how different this is from a lot of other social media. Particularly tiktok.
I just saw a creator on tiktok reminding followers that it’s actually a problem when someone goes back to the earliest post and watches all the posts chronologically, liking and commenting along the way. The stupid app recognizes it as spam or something and then kinda puts a halt on their account? Literally punishing people for positive engagement?? 🥴🤦♀️
I’ve already heard people saying years back how they don’t want to be “creepy” and go through a persons blog, liking and reblogging tons of stuff. But think how many more people are going to be worried about it now, thinking they might do actual damage! Most people, especially younger people, are so used to the way tiktok works now. So please, do not ever worry about this on here. Just remember-
Pretty.

Also, several people who are immigrants won’t be able to tell the difference as daffodils don't grow in their native place. Do they deserve to die for that?
James Wong is one of the most beleagured men on Twitter. Not only did he recently get fired from the Observer for publicly objecting to platforming a TERF, he has a bunch of idiots arguing that daffodils (toxic) bundled like spring onions and placed in the produce section next to other alliums isn't dangerous because people should "know better" somehow.
Marks and Spencer is a UK-based retailer with some stores in a few other countries as well. I haven't seen daffodils sold like this in the U.S., but this is your regular reminder that staff at any given store don't necessarily know how toxic the plant products they're selling are. If you see something like this, bring it to the store's attention and also notify their corporate office.
