Thank you! My sentiments exactly. Scar Jo, Emma Stone, Everyone Fucking Else: Y’all CAN say no. Like I’m sure you’ve done before...

All this whitewashing talk...

What’s this? A Japanese person is cast to play a Japanese character in the adaptation of a famous Japanese story in a Japanese-developed genre?

If John Wayne can play Genghis Khan, then sure, Daniel Dae Kim can play Lincoln.

Six of one, half dozen of the other? Statistically, the representation is low (as noted above). So just feeling like you see a lot of Asian actors on shows may be more about the shows you happen to watch or that they stand out and you take notice (not in a bad way, but that it is still remarkable enough to catch your…

He did admit that he’d always pictured Mindy Park as of Korean lineage, but emphasized again that he had never actually explicitly written her as Korean.

I’m not saying that I will sit through a syndicated Hawaii Five-0 episode at godforsaken o’clock just to stare at Daniel Dae Kim, but I’m not not saying it.

I was thinking about this when I went to see Allegiance on Broadway. It starred Lea Salonga and George Takei and was the story of Japanese-Americans who were interred during WWII. Except for like 3 characters, every single actor was Asian. Reading through their bios, just about every single cast member had been at…

My point is calling size 14+ “normal” can imply that anything smaller than that is ABnormal.

So size 6 isn’t “normal” then? Let’s just get rid of most labels, keeping only short (rather than petite - though I don’t mind “petite,” personally), “average height” and tall.

Fun fact: not all thin people have eating disorders.

Many K-Pop management companies are not that different from sex traffickers.

None of that says "sex workers" .... just because they are attractive Asian girls it was a huge leap to thinking they were hookers. Insane!

Yeah, I know that there have been cases where I’ve passed through immigration, but whatever the officer* scribbled on my form was clearly an instruction to the Customs people to screen me more thoroughly than usual. I figure that’s how it worked in this case too.

It always irks me when people write female pop stars off as having zero talent while seemingly have no concerns about all the male rock acts that can barely play their instruments. A lot of these women actually do have talent. I’ve watched K-pop performance (purely out of curiosity, it’s not my thing) and these women…

More than anything. But I think you probably could've lived without it before you discovered how to flick the bean.

The layers to this story are gross and multitudinous...

Oh for Fucks sake. You can't use google to figure out who these (expensively dressed, flying first class) women are?

In that case its not the war that seems pointless to me but the loss of human life. The average German solider wouldn't have conceived a plan to exterminate entire nationalities by himself, but he was manipulated into killing and dying for that cause.
