funny childhood memories from my hogwarts uni dr

(for reference i am andromeda and ted's daughter and tonks- who i call dora- is my older sister, and we live in the muggle english countryside!)

---

when i was about 4 and dora was 11, our dad melted crayons and put them in molds and made us crayons in fun shapes cause we both loved drawing/coloring. when he left the room for like 5 minutes she convinced me they were candy and i ate two of them. 🤩

---

dora said she wouldnt miss me the day before she left to uni, and 10 year old me got offended. me and mom and dad decorated the kitchen for her "goodbye party" (it was just us three and her favorite breakfast) the night before. i hung up a banner that said "please go" after they fell asleep cause i was upset so they all woke up to that.

dora acted like she didnt care but mom and dad couldn't get us to let go of each other before she left and we sobbed for a good ten minutes straight.

---

me and dora have a 2-way mirror and she told me about everything her entire time at hogwarts (especially her crush on bill weasley from first to third year).

---

we spent a month and a half every summer with dad's muggle family in ireland. me and dora would spend time with our family swimming at the beaches and riding bikes all around. it was like a month long sleepover.

---

when i was like 4 i performed accidental magic while me and dora were playing tag and i apparated onto the roof. my mom had to get a ladder to retrieve me and i cried the whole time so dora sang chiquitita (horribly, might i add) to try and get me to calm down since it was my favorite song at the time.

---

we have an assortment of animals (a cat, a dog, i have a cat familiar and an owl, and we have cows).

---

we have a greeenhouse and a garden (which is part of why i love herbology.)

---

i already know my boggart is myself without a face because me and nymphadora are both metamorphmaguses and she used to tell me if i changed my features too much then i would forget what i looked like. (i slept in her twin bed with her for a month or two before she was able to convince me it wouldn't happen).

---

most blacks are named after the stars but mom told me she named my sister nymphadora (meaning "gift of the nymphs") because they new she was a metamorphmagus since birth (she started changing feautures as a newborn). but since i didnt start doing it until later, my name was a blend of her sisters names (isa from narcissa and bel from bellatrix).

---

narcissa is my godmother and sirius is my godfather, but because of my parents' life they dont know me and dora exist. my mother tells me and dora stories about her sisters and her cousins. it broke her heart to leave.

---

my dad is half mexican and irish and he taught me and dora spanish.

---

dora used to help me pick outfits and would have me match my hair to it.

TAFAKKUR: Part 281

THE MESSAGE OF METEORITES: Part 1

According to a news item that appeared in the middle of 2002, there was a 6% probability that a meteorite measuring 2 kilometers in diameter could hit the Earth on February 1, 2019. At the start of September 2003, in a statement made from the Lincoln Near Earth Object Information Centre, there was a probability of 1 to 909,000 that a meteorite known as “2003 QQ47” would hit the Earth on 21 March 2014; the effect of this meteorite would be 20 million times stronger than that of the bomb on Hiroshima. On 23 April 2003, a meteorite measuring 5 meters in diameter fell into the Pacific Ocean, hundreds of kilometers away from Mexico. The resulting explosion released energy which measured nearly half the energy that had been released by the Hiroshima bomb-as determined by the Los Alamos National Laboratory, the Department of Energy. Had the meteorite had a diameter of 50 meters, the explosion would probably have been a thousand times stronger; and had the diameter been 500 meters, the explosion would have been a million times stronger, leading to gigantic sea waves, which would have caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people living along the Pacific coast. Had the meteorite been of a diameter of 5 kilometers, the explosion would probably have been a billion times more intense, and this could have led to the destruction of nearly all life on Earth.

ASTEROIDS AND COMETS

At the time when the proof that such an occurrence had already taken place on Earth was first discovered in the early 1980’s, there was a threat of a similar crash. The American physicist Luis Alvarez and his son William proposed the hypothesis that about 65 million years ago (at the end of the Cretaceous period), as a result of a meteorite hitting the Earth, the climates had changed altogether and that this had led to the extinction of many land and marine species. According to this theory, which is supported by fossils found throughout the world, approximately 65 million years ago, when a meteorite almost 10 kilometers in diameter hit the Earth, a cloud of dust formed, leaving the Earth in darkness for years; the result of this was that rays of the Sun could not reach the Earth, thereby preventing photosynthesis, and consequently the possibility of plant life. This in turn led to a chain reaction, eventually leading to the extinction of some animal species (including dinosaurs) that fed on plants and other animals. The cooling of the air, the poisonous gases that filled up the atmosphere as a result of forest fires, and the rising of the acidity of the subsequent rain might all have played their roles in the extinction of land and marine animals. It seems that 8 out of 10 species disappeared from the face of the Earth in a few thousand years, or even less. The traces of the meteorite crash can also be seen in the iridium levels found in sediments from the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary (This metal from the platinum group is found in small amounts on Earth, whereas in meteorites it is in abundance). In the quartz crystals that had undergone shock it was visible that they had been subjected to high pressure due to a crash; the nickel minerals showed that a nickel-rich meteorite had been oxidized in the atmosphere. The location of the meteorite crash was found in 1991. On the shores of the Mexican peninsula of Yucatan, under a one kilometer stratum of sedimentation, a crash crater with a diameter of 260 kilometers was discovered through gravimetric methods. Its age was found to be 65 million years. Another factor that could have led to great amounts of carbonic gas and sulfur oxide being introduced into the atmosphere would have been intense volcanic activity, which it is understood took place at the end of the Cretaceous period; this too could have contributed to the degeneration of the climate.

This was not a one-off incident. Approximately 445 million years ago (at the end of the Ordovician period) gamma rays from space could easily have been the cause of a mass extinction of two-thirds of all species on Earth. Gamma-ray explosions are the strongest explosions known. When huge stars implode into black holes at the end of their lives, they emanate very strong gamma rays as pulses at a particular frequency from their poles. If such an explosion should happen in our galaxy and should the rays head toward us, it would be very destructive indeed. It has been understood that species like “trilobites,” which continued to live very close to the ocean surface suffered great losses during this period. This could be explained only by the occurrence of a gamma ray explosion, which would affect the creatures on land and the ocean surface, but would not greatly trouble the deep-water creatures (Hecht, 2003).

Around 250 million years ago (the Permian-Triassic boundary), as a result of another mass extinction, probably 90% of marine species and 705 land species disappeared from the face of the Earth. These extinctions were attributed to the rapid changes in the climate and sudden changes in sea-levels or intense volcanic activity. To these factors was added the “cosmic cause.” In the rock sediment specimens of this period, the isotope distribution of helium and argon gases was more similar to the distribution in meteorites than to that of the rocks on Earth. In 2001 American geochemists and Australian geologists found new evidence concerning the meteorite crash.

In the 1990’s, astrophysicists understood that the balance in the solar system was very sensitive, and that it was impossible to predict the long term orbit of a heavenly body. Apart from the regular movements of planets and their satellites, innumerable comets and asteroids, at various angles to the system, are engaged in rotating motions which are impossible to pre-calculate. In 1996, the Shoemaker-Levy star fell onto Jupiter bit by bit, tearing away balls of fire as big as the Earth. So, what sort of objects can hit the Earth?

Andromeda, the closest galaxy to ours, is coming toward us at a speed of 400,000 kilometers per hour. But because it is two million light years away it is set to collide with our galaxy only five billion years later (if Doomsday does not arrive before then!) According to the information we have today, since the neighboring stars change their positions along with the Sun within the great circular movement of the Milky Way, the possibility of crashing into one of these is nearly non-existent. The planets in the solar system give us no reason for concern either. Their orbits, in which they have been excellently placed, do not intersect with that of the Earth. The Moon does not present a threat either. It is also not anticipated that any machine parts from satellites will reach an acceleration that could be disastrous as they enter the atmosphere. What threats remain are asteroids and comets that have a tendency to hit the Earth.

Asteroids are large objects that have a rock-like structure, yet are not big enough to be considered planets. Their diameters range from a couple of meters to 30 kilometers. Many asteroids that are close to us move in orbits that intersect those of the Earth. Asteroid 3753 (1986 TO), which has an orbit that has a dynamic relationship to ours, seems to be another satellite to the Earth, along with the Moon. (Wiegert et al., 1997). Comets, on the other hand, are balls of dust that have heated up as they pass close to the Sun and are adorned with bright tails. The possibility of a crash stems from these two groups. These comets revolve around the Sun in specific orbits, and it is without a doubt that they have a great significance for the system; these objects are concentrated in three major areas. The first area is a large belt between Mars and Jupiter (The Asteroid Belt). Here there are approximately a million asteroids of diameters greater than a kilometer. Further away, beyond Neptune, in the Kuiper belt, whose size is 30-100 times greater than the distance between the Earth and the Sun, it is believed that there are more than a trillion comets. Another source of meteorites is the border area of the solar system, which opens up to wider space, the sphere shaped Oort Cloud, whose diameter is 40 thousand times greater than the distance between the Earth and the Sun. (Poirier & Greffoz, 2001)

When we consider an asteroid of a kilometer in diameter and which is further away than Mars, it hardly seems bigger than a grain of sand 100 kilometers away from Earth. In 1998, NASA started a project which aims to use telescopes to identify (within 10 years) 90% of the asteroids of more than a kilometer in diameter which are moving toward Earth.

Known by his/her/their Hispanic name of Francisco Alejandro Diego Garcia Ochoa/Francisca Alejandra Maria Garcia Ochoa. Known by his/her/their alien name of Zana Saani. He/she/they were the commander and leader of a space rebel army for Joanna Jacobson, a radical, militant, anarchist. Joanna was the revolutionary leader of the group the Winds of Change or the Young Radicals. He/she/they led the insurrectionist Space Rebel Army the United Uprising when the Sol, Vega, & Polaris System rebelled against colonialism and imperialism of Earth in the Space Revolutionary War and when the Xeno, Milky Way, & Andromeda Galaxy revolted against the neocolonialism and occupation of the Terran Empire in the Space Civil War. He/she/they is stateless or someone without a nationality as a result of the revolution and as a repercussion of him/her/them commanding the Space Rebel Army of the rebellion and insurrection against the Earth and Terran Empire to take them out of power.  Valeria Nadia Torres Garcia was part of a hacker collective Splinter. She was leader of a legion of hackers who worked for Young Radicals and Winds of Change. Valeria Nadia Torres Garcias as Rouge is someone who is wanted by the Earth government and Terran Empire for being a hacker for the Young Radicals or Winds of Change. She is also someone who is wanted as an operative who was an informant, double agent, & spy for the Space Rebel Army. So she is stateless or someone without a nationality as a result of the revolution and as a repercussion of her helping with the insurrection and rebellion against the Earth and Terran Empire to take them out of power. Joanna Jacobson she is the militant, anarchist, radical, & revolutionary leader of the Rebellion or Resistance that rebelled against the Earth and the Terran Empire. She is the leader and founder of the Young Radicals or Winds of Change that fought against Earth hegemony and dominion and fought against Terran Empire subjugation and oppression. She is stateless or someone without a nationality as a result of the revolution and as a repercussion of her leading the rebellion and insurrection against the Earth and Terran Empire to take them out of power. Years ago Methoataske Harjo a nineteen year old young adult female Shawnee and Muskogee Creek Indigenous woman, who is the protege of Kana’i Makoa Latu/Ataahua Kamalani Latu, asked Kana’i Makoa Latu/Ataahua Kamalani Latu, Valeria Nadia Torres Garcia, & Joanna Jacobson, “How does it feel to be displaced diaspora banned from ever returning home to Earth or Terra, the Sol System, & the Milky Way Galaxy as long as the Earth government and Terran Empire is still in power?” “It feels numbing I guess.” “We all knew it was a possibility when we rebelled that we might be banned from the Earth, the Sol Star System, & the Milky Way Galaxy.” “But to hear that we may never return home as we are essentially displaced diaspora it is something else as Indigenous people and people of color.” Valeria Garcia a Cherokee Tsalagi Indigenous and Latinx Mexican woman of color said, “I want to return to the Cherokee nation of Oklahoma but if I go back I’m going to be assasinated by a sniper armed with a hard light sniper rifle.” Ryuu Kato/Haruka Kato a queer and trans Asian and Latinx Native person of color said, “I want to return home to Tonga or Hawaii but if I go back I’m going to be taken to a deep black compartmentalized intergalactic black site planet and tortured and interrogated.” Joanna Jacobson a woman of color alien extraterrestrial hybrid said, “I want to go back but if I go back to Fenrir I will be thrown into a maximum security prison on Osiris.”

[hyruviandoctor]

Infodump me about your favorite niche interest. Just like, go wild man

Oh God what’s my favorite niche interest let’s see uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Well I guess I could take about space and how cool and terrifying it is! I’ll just bullet point some of my fave facts and if you (or anyone) wants more I’ll add onto it!

- Andromeda is the closest galaxy to us, and is incredibly close in astronomical terms, but it’s too far away in human terms to even think about going there with our current technology (and that’s a bummer)

- Speaking of Andromeda, it’s gonna hit us one day! In a couple million (could be billion, I honestly forget) years the Andromeda and Milky Way Galaxies are going to collide and merge. Good news is it’ll look super cool when it’s done. Bad news is it’ll mess up a whole lot of stuff in terms of gravity and orbits and whatnot. Good OR bad news, depending on your outlook, is that we’re gonna be super mega dead by then anyway so we won’t see it happen

- Astronomers have a lot of different hypotheses for the distribution of potential energy in the universe over time, and there’s one literally officially called The Mexican Hat Potential because of its shape (my professor thought this was a terrible and stupid name)

- The universe is expanding at an increasing rate (we’re pretty sure), which means one day it will be stupidly massive and everything will be infinitely far away from everything else

- There is no 14 billion years ago (because we know the Big Bang happened about 13.8 billion years ago) and that’s really scary to think about!

- Piggybacking off of that fact, because we know the speed of light and have a starting point (13.8 billion years) we can calculate the size of the universe! EXCEPT because the universe is expanding the way it is, the farther out you go the faster it’s moving away from the epicenter of the Big Bang. WHICH MEANS there’s a distance where space is moving away from us faster than light is moving towards us from that spot. So there is theoretically infinite space that we will never be able to see because light literally cannot escape from past that boundary. I like to explain it as this: imagine you’re on one of those moving sidewalks and you’re running towards a door at one end at a constant speed, let’s say 5 m/s. Then let’s say someone turns up the speed on the sidewalk so that it keeps getting faster and faster, but you’re still going the same speed you were to start with. So even though you’re trying to move forward, and your body thinks it is, you’re really moving backwards (and you’re doing so faster and faster). So you’ll never reach the door you’re running towards, because the sidewalk is pulling you away faster than you can run (assuming you can’t move faster than 5 m/s, because light can only go 3*10^8 m/s in a vacuum)

- The Big Bang might have actually been a lot of little Big Bangs going off in a lot of spots, creating little micro-universes that we inhabit just one of (which is supported by the above statement)

- It rains diamonds on Neptune and Uranus

- If someone was flying towards a black hole, an observer would see them cross the event horizon and then disappear while the person actually crossing into the black hole would just fall infinitely and think they never crossed it. This is because light waves can’t escape from the black hole’s gravitational pull once they pass the event horizon, so light couldn’t reflect off of someone inside of it, and time slows down because of the immense gravity inside the event horizon, so the person inside would just fall infinitely into the black hole (except for the devastating gravitational pressure that would compress them into nothingness)

- NASA has a warp drive and they have no idea why it works because it definitely shouldn’t, but it does. It’s an EM drive and it’s bonkers and you should definitely look it up

- Astronomers are dumb and call everything after Helium on the periodic table a metal! This makes chemists hate us even more than they already do

- Mathematicians hate physicists because we take a lot of shortcuts and make a lot of assumptions that they say we can’t do, but the math works out and is confirmed in experiments so they can suck it

- Quantum mechanics is as hard and confusing as you think, and a very famous quantum physicist once told his students when they asked conceptual questions “Just shut up and calculate. You don’t need to understand it yet if you can do the math” (the math is very hard also)

I could probably talk endlessly about this stuff, so let me know if you want more and I might add onto this post!

#astrophysics is spooky! #but really neat! #and sort of confirmed my belief in God actually! #but that's a whole other thing #ANYWAY I love talking bout space #asks #kimikaami

"Draco, love, what are you doing? What is this? "

"It's an altar, Potter, isn't it obvious? "

"Well, yes, I can see that"

"Then why do you ask? "

"Because it looks different from any other altar that I have ever seen and I'm not sure why it is here, in the middle of the living room."

Draco kept placing things from the table onto the altar. Flowers, colorful paper ornaments, candles, food, chocolate skulls, and a variety of objects that increased Harry's curiosity, until he saw the photos.

"Draco, what is this?! Is this some kind of sick joke?!"

The blonde man stood up and walked straight to the visibly upset black haired man and took his head to move it closer to his.

"Harry. Calm down. It's not a joke. It's an ofrenda. Mexican people believe that the people we loved and died come to visit us once a year, on November 2nd. This is the way we welcome them. The way we honor them. We have to put the things they liked when they were alive, and the rest of the ornaments are part of the tradition. Andromeda made the skulls and Teddy decorated them. Molly cooked all the food, including the pan de muerto, and Hagrid collected all the information we could possibly need. Neville was in charge of the flowers, he says the cempasuchil was a big challenge, but I think he did a great job, I did the paper ornaments myself... And the weasel was supposed to keep you busy until I was done but... Here you are. What do you think? "

Harry was crying. Everything looked so beautiful. He could see a picture of his parents with Sirius, eanother picture of Remus with Tonks at the top of the altar. There were more pictures, Dumbledore, Dobby, Colin, Cedric, Ted... Each one of them had a skull with their name on it. The orange flowers made everything seem so alive, the candles floating slightly over each step of the altar. A snitch, a chocolate bar, a camera, ink, food. Through his tears, Harry smiled.

"Draco, I... How..?"

"I now you wanted to honor them, properly, but not with a ceremony, this is the only thing that I could think of."

"You are the best, you now?"

"You deserve the best"

Draco kissed Harry's forehead gently while holding him in his arms.

"Now come on, help me light up the candles for them. Andromeda and the Weasleys will be here soon to see the ofrenda and dinner is not finished yet."

Harry gave Draco one last fast kiss before heading to the kitchen.

"We better hurry up then."

A/N : in Mexico it's still November 2nd, and I hope you liked this... Sorry for the grammar mistakes

The Idea of Race Is a Lie

The plague of racism has, in some ways, been rising in the previous couple of years. Whether or not one appears to be like at Hungary, Germany, Myanmar, India or Brazil, racists have gotten extra seen and getting elected to public workplace. Then there have been the horrors of the slaughters in New Zealand and Sri Lanka. In america, the president has denounced Mexicans as drug sellers and rapists, described some poor nations as, "shithole countries," and did not reject an endorsement from a former chief of the Ku Klux Klan. He even went as far as to name not less than some neo-Nazis, "very fine people." One is perhaps forgiven for pondering that what his marketing campaign slogan actually meant was "Make America White Again." Hate crimes within the U.S. rose in 2017 for the third consecutive 12 months, and they're rising in Canada too--up 47 % within the latter in 2017, primarily focusing on Muslims but additionally attacking Jews and other people of shade. In combating this improve in racism, there are two main features to think about. The primary is that the very thought of "race" is a lie: because the American Society of Human Genetics, the biggest skilled group of scientists within the subject, defined in an essay: "The science of genetics demonstrates that humans cannot be divided into biologically distinct subcategories"; and it "challenges the traditional concept of different races of humans as biologically separate and distinct. This is validated by many decades of research." In different phrases, "race itself is a social construct," with no organic foundation. In 2014, greater than 130 main inhabitants geneticists condemned the concept genetic variations account for the financial, political, social and behavioral range all over the world. In actual fact, stated a 2018 article in Scientific American, there's a "broad scientific consensus that when it comes to genes there is just as much diversity within racial and ethnic groups as there is across them." And the Human Genome Undertaking has confirmed that the genomes discovered across the globe are 99.9 per cent an identical in each individual. Therefore, the very thought of various "races" is nonsense. A second downside, as cognitive scientist George Lakoff has proven, is that merely utilizing the phrase "race," even when criticizing racism, truly reinforces the false perception that human beings belong to basically totally different teams. That is as a result of the extra a phrase is used, the extra that sure mind circuits are activated and the stronger that metaphor turns into. The usage of colours to explain ethnic teams additionally helps racism. That is why it's not acceptable anymore to seek advice from Asians as "yellow," to Latin People as "brown," or to Native People as "red." Nevertheless, many individuals, together with teachers and journalists, nonetheless use "black" to explain folks of primarily latest African origin. After all, there are minor variations between numerous ethnic teams: behavioral, bodily, linguistic and so forth, and most of these variations are attributable to one's tradition and experiences. As Einstein noticed, "the personality that finally emerges is largely formed by the environment" that folks expertise throughout improvement, by the construction of the society through which they develop up, "by the tradition of that society, and by its appraisal of particular types of behavior." In actual fact, the concept all of humanity will be divided into 4 or 5 (or nonetheless many) racial teams is comparatively new. Historic Greeks, for instance, by no means considered themselves as "white." As Tim Whitmarsh famous in Aeon in 2018, "Greeks simply didn't think of the world as starkly divided along racial lines into black and white: that's a strange aberration of the modern, Western world, a product of many different historical forces, but in particular the transatlantic slave trade and the cruder aspects of 19th-century racial theory." The reality is that Greek legends painting themselves and their heroes as multiethnic in origin. The Egyptian Danaus turned king of Argos, and his daughter, Hypermestra, was an ancestor of the best of all Greek heroes, Herakles (Hercules). Perseus, who slew the Gorgon Medusa, married an Ethiopian girl, Andromeda, and their kids established probably the most highly effective of all of the Bronze Age Greek kingdoms, Mycenae. One other instance of this nonracial perspective is discovered within the Histories of Herodotus, who, within the fifth century B.C., wrote that the aim of his e book was to, "preserve the fame of the important and remarkable achievements produced by both Greeks and non-Greeks" . The so-called Father of Historical past" also said that Ethiopians "are reputed to be the tallest and most stunning of all peoples." This portrait of Africans isn't distinctive. Historian Peter Farb notes in his 1978 e book Humankind that "Greek artwork, literature, and mythology usually portrayed dark-skinned folks with respect." And then there are the remains found in a cave in Cheddar Gorge in southwest England of the individual known as "Cheddar Man." DNA from his skeleton, dated to around 7,100 B.C., suggests that he had blue eyes, dark curly hair and "darkish to black" pores and skin pigmentation. Cheddar Man shares a genetic profile with a number of different people present in Spain, Hungary and Luxembourg. Cheddar Man's forebears seemingly originated within the Center East. Later, the ancestors of the individuals who constructed Stonehenge traveled west throughout the Mediterranean from Asia Minor, bringing farming with them and reaching Britain about 4,000 B.C. The reality is that we're all one human household that had its origins in Africa. Amazingly, analysis by statistician Joseph Chang at Yale discovered that the newest frequent ancestor of everybody alive at present lived simply 3,600 years in the past. In different phrases, in case you may hint your ancestry again lower than 150 generations, you'd discover not less than one one that is the daddy or mom of us all. And the additional again in time one appears to be like, the extra frequent ancestors we'd discover. Chang concludes: "Our findings recommend a outstanding proposition: irrespective of the languages we converse or the colour of our pores and skin, we share ancestors who planted rice on the banks of the Yangtze, who first domesticated horses on the steppes of the Ukraine, who hunted large sloths within the forests of North and South America, and who labored to construct the Nice Pyramid of Khufu." The burden of proof lies, subsequently, with those that cling to the notion that there are things like "races." They must first present a scientific definition, primarily based on vital variations in human genomes, of what "race" means; and second, clearly reveal that there are sufficient of those variations between totally different ethnic teams to justify dividing folks into separate "races." That is an unimaginable job. Within the last evaluation, it's our experiences and our tradition, not our DNA, that account for many of our variations. So, whereas ethnicity is actual, and there are certainly minor variations between ethnic teams, there isn't a such factor as "race"--only racism. And the results of racism--from the slave commerce to the European genocide of First Nations within the "New World" to Nazi Germany to at present's refugees--are horrific. Even Ronald Reagan understood that, "if immediately there was a menace to this world from another species, from one other planet," the consequence would be this: "We might overlook all of the little native variations that we now have between our international locations, and we'd discover out as soon as and for all that we actually are all human beings right here on this Earth collectively." We face actual existential threats, and we should not look forward to an alien invasion earlier than we focus much less on our minor variations and extra on what all of us have in frequent.

the hardest thing about andromeda is trying to create a mixed family that represents my life experiences and my family history, y’know?

i always want to have these characters who have a link to me - my family has a nice, big amalgamation of places in our history; dad’s family is from puerto rico and has plenty of smaller percentages of ethnicity that add to it - mexican, american indian, black. Mom’s side is white as can be, english and irish. I was p much raised without knowing any of the culture from dad’s side of the family

but also...i make these characters and it makes me feel like a fraud even though...i am literally a mixed kid myself??
