HI

So I’ve been having a lot of problems with my depression and anxiety over the past few weeks, and I’d really appreciate some cute movie recs. I’m looking in particular for anime full-length movies or OVAs (but movies would be better) AVOIDING blood, familial trauma, any sexual themes (light romance or cutesy friendship would probably be okay?), and anything Ghibli because I’ve already seen them all. Anything else is fair game (doesn’t even have to be cute tbh just has to be good).

Just need a de-stress night and anime seems like a good way to do it. Thanks in advance!

Fun story time!

Actually fun!

When I was a kid my Mum had a friend who was a single parent of 2 and a foster Mum. I spent a lot of time at her house and heard a lot of nasty stories about the foster care system and about how nice her house was in comparison.

So I’ve kinda always wanted to be a foster parent and keep a full house and help kids because kids are wicked cool and no kid deserves to be put into a nasty foster home. With my health being as it is now, I mean… like idk treatments are still out there for me that I just don’t know about yet I hope. Plus maybe my future partner/s will be able enough to help me make this a reality.

My parents are totally cool with it. They’ve always known that I’ve wanted to have a big family, and when I told them about my abuse and that I wasn’t comfortable having giving birth they were cool with me adopting and now that it’s confirmed near-impossible for me to have kids due to my endo they’re even more supportive. I have aunts and uncles who are less supportive, and my Gramma is just plain-out freaked by the idea of people raising kids they’re not biologically related to (idgi).

Really the reason I’m sharing is I’m kinda wondering if anyone reading this has ever thought of adopting or fostering? What are/were your motivations behind it? Is your family supportive of it?

Legit Question Time:

So I’m doing a Farmer’s Market and some craft sales this Summer, in addition to my 2 ~*real jobs*~ so come Autumn I’m going to have some extra money. I really want to get into some kind of physical activity, preferably some kind of combat sport, but I’m really concerned about my ability to learn… well… any type of skill now that I’m older.

Does anyone have suggestions for combat sports they enjoy? Or does anyone have personal experience with getting into such a thing at an older age? Either would be super helpful.

Alternatively, does anyone have first hand experience with learning something like archery at an older age?

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

So I’m looking for some English-language K-Pop to put on a CD for my Mum.

Anyone wanna help a bro out?

Questions about YesStyle:

• Have any of my followers bought from them before?
• Have you had to return something? 
• Was it okay? Like, were they good about it?

I’m asking because I measure as a M across the board until it comes to my chest, then I have to go up to an XL for most (men’s) tops.

Normally I buy a M when I’m shopping… everywhere ever… so idk if I should just order Ms anyways and hope they stretch, or if I should go for the XL… It says on their site that they do size correction within 14 days, but I’m dubious because I’ve never bought from them before.

Help?

So I put down that I’m French speaking for the Feminist K-pop Directory.

Just as a way to let anyone who’s, like, wholly/primarily French speaking know that they can still fanperson with me.

Query though!

Does anyone protest me making French posts? I know most of my followers are Anglophones (idk what the English term would be… monolingual?), and I don’t want people running away because the language of my blog might flip around a bit.

As an alternative, would people want me to translate any future French posts into English as well? Or I could put the English translations in the tags (or vice-versa idk).

TL;DR: How should I go about making my blog accessible to both English and French speaking followers should I decide to start making posts in French?

Also: Pimping the Feminist K-pop Directory.

I feel like there should be a queer blogger + k-pop directory.

aaliriyah:

Would anyone be interested in something like that? Just a list of blogs that are +50% k-pop material and run by queer bloggers? Also I’m using queer as an umbrella term here to describe any/all beings who are a part of the alphabet soup community.

I’m just asking because it’s something I would be interested in, but I’m not sure if anyone would actually put their name down…

Let me know!

Bringing this back because I legit believe that there has to be more than just two of us who would be interested in this.
