Since there's no use in trying to reach through you, I'll leave you with something your posts made me recall. It was a thought I had in the past as a young Asian American person, that maybe other people didn't stand up for As

It's not about tribalism or picking a fight over affirmative action. It's about being treated fairly. We don't call African Americans or Hispanics coming together tribalism. They're just justifiably fighting for their ri

Where did people learn to double space? I've never had anyone even mention such a thing in school.

On another note, what makes you think Asian Americans aren't being discriminated against at their second or third choice schools either? You need to stop thinking this is a fight between Asian Americans and other disadvantaged groups.

It's so amusing how when Asians ask for respect and equal treatment in American society, that we get painted as uppity and are told we should step aside for others. Even by our own group, who have been raised in that American society t

We are not better off as a group that's socially acceptable to disrespect and hate on in American society. There is nothing to be proud of for that. Why can't Asian Americans ask for the same exact treatment American society gives

Asian people are already alienated. Getting to the position where other minorities are would be a step closer to acceptance in American society, no?

It's really not just academia where this occurs. In Hollywood and in everyday life, it seems to be acceptable for people to make fun of/mock Asian cultures, whereas they wouldn't (or they would think twice about it) do the sa

Like one greyed out poster said, no one cares - about Asian Americans in the U.S . There is likely no other minority group where if something like this were occuring against them, that it would just be accepted. Hell, it wouldn't even

During a pandemic like this, you can definitely quit over fears of the virus and for the purpose of social distancing and be eligible for unemployment. I know a number of people who did.

Man, who thought screwing over the people willing to pay for their first app was a good idea? Good customers they could've brought along on the ride with their new app via a credit or something. Then hit them with in app purchases for

Reminds me of something from Great Teacher Onizuka. There's a girl who is beyond intelligent and was incredibly thirsty for knowledge from a young age. She would always be asking questions and learning as much as she could from her tea

What will you do if your kid isn't a gifted child and falls below your expectations? Hopefully you'd still love them and treat them in a "proper manner" right? Just be prepared for that very possible outcome.

There's a fundamental problem with the way public restrooms are used. A lot of restrooms still have doors that require opening by hand to get inside one. When someone needs to wash their hands because their hands are dirty, they'r

When trying to learn html/css and following multiple tutorials with different ways to achieve one thing, it truly feels like I'm just throwing shit at a wall and seeing what sticks. Sometimes nothing sticks. It's incredibly f
