sorry for awkward phrasing, idk how to phrase it properly. what i mean is: my dad is *small indigenous ethnicity originated in region A* and my mom is *semi-small ethnicity originated in region B*. both of their cultures completely different to each other and the country we live in. i was wondering: can anyone relate?
i’m still in education and recently watched a video from my favourite content creator who was giving career tips for their audience. it was really good, they provided some inside on the industry, how the bureaucracy works, but for majority of that video i was like: "yeah, it won’t suit anyone who’s disabled"
so what’s your career advice? in general and specific to your needs (any advice that isn’t usa/europe centered will be highly appreciated!)
im considering to major in mineralogy, but worried that i wont be able to go out on field trips which are necessary :p
hi i’m a kalmyk currently living in russia. i’m so fed up with our government‘s propaganda and dream daily to abandon this country. lately, i’ve been considering to immigrate to another country, but simultaneously i can’t picture me leaving my culture and heritage behind, it’s crucial for me to feel connection with my community and give back to it. all things combined— i settled on either immigrating to mongolia or some mongol/kalmyk communes in usa. still biased towards mongolia.
do you think it’s a good decision? i know my uncle and his family lived in one of the temples in mongolia as a temporary shelter (he has a lot of connections in religious world i think?) until they immigrated to usa.
hi guys, throwaway account because i’m really anxious about my digital print.
first of all, i’m 17 and that type of mentally ill neurodivergent teenager that doesn’t have friends irl (had few, but they don’t talk to me anymore). i felt miserably lonely and as a last resort joined a bunch of discord servers found on tumblr. i don’t have any trusted adults in my life and about to start therapy even though my sister always postpones this (should i take the matter in my hands? idk).
anyway, i joined a few weeks ago server with two active members excluding myself. me and the owner C (16) are the one who talk the most between each other, but we have the longest conversations when other member B (17) tunes in. C is a very nice person, but just in one of our first conversations they casually mentioned how they got stalked (and still!) are stalked by some 20 years old (multiple!!) who were sexually inappropriate with them. my initial reaction was like: "very sorry, but i don’t want to get involved", because i was thinking that i won’t ended up being close to someone like them and i also tired from everyone venting to me. after that i kinda avoided server because C’s behaviour makes my brain yell at me: "that’s a child who puts themselves in a constant danger!!!", but then few days after D sprouted a conversation between three of us and i genuinely started to like C as a person and im deeply concerned for their safety. their infantilisation of themselves manifests in them repeating "omg, i’m such a baby!!" which they do a lot. additionally, they trust everyone who they just met and overshare immediately (hence i know about stalking experiences), also its not really a red flag, but they refuse to grow in their skill of our hobby-related server while simultaneously being frustrated in their lack of growth?? i just hope they don’t approach similarly their social life…
what im trying to say that if one of their stalkers finds out about this server WE ALL FUCKED. no one on this server has a support system, otherwise we wouldn’t ended up here. the craziest thing that even B is okay with this shit even though i assumed we were at least on the similar level of self-awareness, but they think of them as mature????? i’ve never shared any personal information on that server except saying that i’m around their age and a few jokes based on a personal (something you wouldn’t want your employer to find out) experience. am i going insane????? should i approach B first???
p.s.: i also joined another server and kinda. didnt like their vibe and now embarrassed to leave. can you just say that its okay to leave even though i communicated a bit with others *insert sad homeless ant pic*
