Recommendations?

Idk how to even get into listening to English-language music…

Should I spotify? But then again that’s corporate… I’d get cancelled here if I start using that…

How are you even supposed to… um… music?

I’m literally just listening to random Cantonese and Mandarin music on Youtube…

The only music I ever had at home was hearing my dad’s Cantopop… that’s my introduction to music…

(And also just random intrumental music I found online… like beetoven stuff)

So C-Pop is what I know most…

(The only English songs I know are stuff similar to “Because of You” by Kelly Clarkson, cuz I just wanted to find songs about the theme of shitty parenting… cuz I had problems with parents and need some songs like that for cartharisis)

Omg 🤣

My favorite Anime (well one of my favorites, not sure its its still at the top now)

I always imagined this idea of: me just randomly talk to foreigners in China… to see reactions… like… If I ever visit China, I’m straight up just gonna randomly walk up to English-speakers and be like “sup homie”

Might confused then for like a good few seconds since most people in China with an East Asian face does not have an American accent.

Okay my alts are:

@wongkakui@piefed.social

@wongkakui@quokk.au

@deathbybigsad@sh.itjust.works

Dunno how I upset you with this post, but go ahead… 🤷‍♂️

Aint no way, they spoke fake Mandarin 🤣

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-wbpZ7-5gQ

I watched like 2 clips and I already cringed the fuck out

Nah bruh, I went to 2 years of elementary school in China and watched a lot of Mandarin cartoons and TV shows, aint no way they did this…

So butchered…

I can feel the host cringing

This sounds like how American teachers tried to pronounce my name… 💀

(Okay it’s not fake-fake, just so awful you need a PhD in Chinese Language to understand it)

Great Firewall of Europe

So now Chinese who managed to bypass the firewall cannot access western sites behind Google’s new Captcha-wall?

Wow, great job, Google. 🙄

(I mean unless they managed to import a Googled-phone into China too)

Yea I know. I saw Project Hail Mary in an IMAX theater a month ago… so different…

So immersive…

Also so loud…

My favorite thing was that quiet sequence and the light flashing sequence

That was the first time I’ve been in a movie theater…

Also is this guy British? Lol, do British people talk like that. Its so funny to see them trying to be as insulting as possible while looking “professional” doing it. xD

Context:

8 years old was when my family immigrated to the US… probably also the factor of being in a foreign place…

Not sure if there any any immigrant parents that would just lets their kids roam free without supervision…

Noise-Cancelling Headphones…

not to mention any specific ones, just the general concept of it…

Everything sounds better, more immersive…

Also blocks out family arguments to varying degress of success depending on how much you spend on headphones…

Oh yea btw the first time I watched interstellar was on a cheap android phone with LCD 720p display using the phone speakers… 👀

On the other side of it, Bluetooth Speakers

Can sort of change the atmoshere of a room, feel slightly less “depressing”

“Earth Court? Mars Court? What Inner Court gives Belters justice?”

One of my most memorable quotes from The Expanse

Lol. My mom didn’t give me permission to be outside by myself until like 6th grade when she finally signed the permission papers to let me walk home from school by myself. (6th grade is still considered Elementary school where I live, still required parents to pick up as a standard protocol)

Cuz she was afraid of (a) kidnappings and (b) that someone would report it and then “CPS would come and take me away and I’d never see mom again”

That was like when I was 12 years old… whats that in Cat Years?

Oh the “hold your child’s (read: cat) hands (read: paws) when crossing the street” is gonna get a bit weird… (you’re gonna get scratched by “your child” (aka: cat))

Funny enough, I just read a wikipedia article with “Japanese” and “Javanese” in the same sentence… kinds breaks your brain a little lol

The original term I heard was “電腦製作” (literally as: Computer Generated)

Example: [X]係電腦製作嘅

Wait till we find a way to see into the past…

“Chronoscope Coordinates or didn’t happen”

Before that people would just dismiss photos of atrocities as CGI or something…

$4500 in debt?

Now I kind a feel guilty…

Cant go in details, but basically: My parents owns the current house I live in, and they have small bussiness/investments and like has like a “small fortune¹” of assets… (¹not sure if I’m using that word right, I’ve been immersed in the English-language world since I was 8 but still feel like I don’t know how some wording/phrasing work lol)

Technically not mine stuff (not at the moment at least) but still… they’re still financially supporting me cuz I’m just depressed af and have no independence and suvival skills.

Sorry about your situation…

If a non-abusive mother or father has cancer and is on their deathbed, and their son refuses to see them, is that cold, unforgivable, and ‘wrong’? Would it be wrong if the son or daughter celebrated their death?

Forget the “Darth” in front of your username?
