niche topic: as a mixed asian (half latina), i have so many opinions about the wasian hmart tiktok girl incident, but i just want to say that regardless of how you feel about her opinions, i feel like any behavior she exuded is rooted in the pain of not being fully validated and accepted by her two ethnicities. how she reacts to those feelings are a separate issue, but at the end of the day, gatekeeping racial or ethnic identity by monoracial people against mixed people is an age-old problem. if you have mixed kids (and you’re not mixed) and you want advice on how to keep them confident, DM me!!! and if you have mixed friends, validate all parts of who they are ❤️

my sister plays jenevieve a bunch and i thought baby powder sounded similar, turns out she heavily sampled a city pop classic by Anri
