korean terrapin

@dazaivelys To me it depends on what time frame of his life I'm talking about. I sometimes go for kunikuzushi or kabukimono when relevant

u can tell when someone started playing genshin based on whether they use the name scara or wanderer

@lokithorloki 심지어 지들 땅도 아님

나왔다. 영원한 억울서사. 세상에서 제일 억울해서, 폭격하고 학살하고 죽이고 강간하고 인종청소를 하면서도 억울해함. 우리는 우리 땅에 살아야 해서 어쩔 수 없이 학살하는 거라고 울부짖음. 가해하면서도 피해자이고 싶어함. 당신들은 온 세계에 증오의 벽돌을 쌓고 있어요.

@true0bIue @cogito_yuri To add context, it depends on what kind of media you interact with. For manga and media that are more Japanese or male oriented, 백합 is used more. For novels, web novels, dramas (Thai, Korean, Chinese etc), manhwa etc GL is the predominant name

@cogito_yuri it’s baekhab (백합) it means lily, they use it about as much as GL from what i’ve seen, like in tweets or on lezhin the GL category is 백합

from what I can tell, Korea uses "GL" pretty much exclusively.

@BantengBullan But aren't those buffs also applicable to other dps characters?

@polymervirus The new artifact set + comfort in shield. She's exactly the Bennett sidegrade people have been wanting for years. And I think she can also buffs Faruzan and Durin? Unsure about that one though.

the concept of wanderer being a meta anemo unit in 2026 oh my god.

씨발 내가 니 나라 가서 너를 노예처럼 부리면서 플랜테이션 농업해서 gdp 오르면 곧이곧대로 받아들이고 머리 조아리면서 굽신대라 병신아

@shamoon205 @TheHugeDude + for personality and stories, there is a clear and consistent pattern of making female characters non confrontational and conform to societal rules of femininity while male characters have more freedom to be abrasive, conniving and confrontational

@shamoon205 @TheHugeDude For designs, I can't for a second think that pointing out the pattern of putting female characters in clothes that barely function of clothes while male characters at least get decent clothing for their climate is needlessly gendered.

People cannot criticize hyv female characters design/writing without getting misogynistic about it I'm so tired

@khiluma I wonder if the reason they don't actually make true transformative reactions as they did before due to how good hyperbloom was. Hyperbloom made it so that you can use nahida xinqiu kuki shinobu and some random character to out dps most other teams. Maybe they're afraid of this

Okay I love transformative reactions like truly. Nobody loves them more than I do but if we’re in for another year of fake reactions where the only actual damage comes from the characters talent where they can’t be buffed by anything other than the star if scales with it sucksss

Haiti, Hungary, Hangook

そりゃ真実は一つだけど、右派の妄想は無限にあるからな(笑

@noxcturnes They have harbinger level fighters in cyno, al haitham, dehya, wanderer. Also, sethos, Candace are very strong

im crying I love Sumeru AQs bc half of these characters involved in some bullshit are just regular people with a day job. They are perhaps the region that most needs Traveler’s aid for their combat skills

@chenluox It may be that I remember these cases because they stick out, but why do a lot of authors when talking about female victim hood, default to sexual violence? I wouldn't mind it if it's treated with the severity it deserves, but a lot of times, as oop pointed out, it is fetishized

Why some camera angles can make me feel uncomfortable: The clip from the first image is taken from Don't Talk to Strangers, exposing the brutality of domestic violence and its harm to victims. The camera is aimed almost entirely at the abuser, capturing his actions, expressions, and words, forming a complete and brutal portrait of him. What the audience remembers is the violence of the abuser. But when the camera focuses on the victim, all we see is a woman being humiliated—her pained face, exposed skin, her trembling in fear without the strength to resist. Everything is magnified by the lens, laid bare before the public eye. What the audience remembers is the suffering of the victim. The camera that could be directed at the cruelty of the perpetrator instead fixes on the vulnerability of the victim, transferring pain and a shaming gaze onto the woman, using close-ups to turn her into an object of humiliation for consumption. That is the source of the discomfort. The camera has its own language. Whoever the camera focuses on is whom the audience looks at. When the camera lingers on the victim’s pain, while the abuser is only briefly mentioned or not even in the frame, the camera itself is doing something cruel: turning the victim’s suffering into a consumable spectacle while allowing the abuser to remain invisible. Under such camera work, the audience’s attention is drawn mostly to “how much the victim suffers” rather than “how evil the abuser is.” This kind of focus on the victim is not a judgment of the perpetrator, but a gaze upon the victim. A reasonable portrayal of violence should focus on the abuser’s hands, expressions, and posture, making the audience feel that the sense of oppression and fear originates from the abuser—not merely making viewers feel the victim’s pain from across the screen. Of course, as some might say, other comics have even more of these tropes, yet I only mention this one. So let me ask you: if someone is beaten, would you say, “But others are killed in the world, so why are you crying over a beating?” If someone says, “The water here is dangerously deep,” would you step in and say, “The sea over there is deeper, and you’re ignoring it”? As long as something worse exists in the world, does that mean no one is allowed to complain about what’s right in front of them? As if pain is a competition, where you only get to speak if you win a medal. The reason I chose this particular work is that I’ve been a reader of it for a long time, and it’s the only one I know well. I am not obligated to rank all the comics in the world by “severity of harm” before I earn the right to speak. I don’t need to compare every other comic you tell me contains even worse elements just to conclude which one is more problematic. I only need to tell you: “I’ve only read this one, and it made me uncomfortable. Because I saw it, I spoke.” Moreover, in this comic, I probably don’t need to say much more—over nearly a hundred chapters, how many romanticized shots are focused on the ex-husband who humiliates this woman, showcasing his “savior” image from his student days? And how many people have even used that as a defense for his violent actions?

@AntiGringoPR @al_Mogaib @SeanMcCarthyCom Ah yes, the 'everyone is Hamas defense'. Liberals are a joke, over 40% of the counted (with overwhelming numbers of dead uncounted) being women and children and your mind goes to "eh, they were probably hamas"

@polymervirus @al_Mogaib @SeanMcCarthyCom Unlike Ukraine, Palestine counts all dead the same. They make no distinctions on whether the people killed are Hamas militants. Also, Putin was targeting civilians exclusively at the beginning of the war. What peace deal are you babbling about, the one Putin wanted?

I remember when you disappeared from twitter and went radio silent during the Gaza genocide then came back here to complain about left antisemitism

@AntiGringoPR @al_Mogaib @SeanMcCarthyCom The estimated and confirmed civilian casualties are larger in Palestine than in Ukraine. Also, I love how liberals conveniently forget how the democrats went on about how they would fight to the last Ukrainian and how they shot down a peace deal weeks into the war

@al_Mogaib @SeanMcCarthyCom There was a far bigger genocide happening in Ukraine which you motherfuckers completely ignored. So you can shove your moral superiority up your ass.

@AboutNodKrai Damn

LOHEN SPLASH ART #GenshinImpact

@Feloscy22 They were at least watchable and even pretty good imo. At least they didn't get the sasakoi treatment

Better hope your favorite yuri isn’t one of mine because if it is there’s a high chance it’ll get a really middling-to-bad anime adaptation

@CarlZha If he actually knew the pathology of the South Korean right, he'd be screaming nonstop about Chinese people in korea

You known Kangmin is a right-wing American grifter when he starts to talk abt Muslims in S Korea
