rumi performs at the world cup opener and the BBQ joint just happens to have the world cup broadcasting on one of their tvs because it's off-season for football and fuck the knicks AND ESPECIALLY fuck the spurs and one of the patrons just happen to be glancing at the screen when rumi comes on and is just like- "HOLY SHIT IS THAT /OUR/ PORK PRINCESS???" and everyone starts rushing over and crowding the screen and are all "omg it is!!" and start treating rumi like she's their hometown hero (she is)

as someone who studies this: statistically speaking, child abuse (including “spanking”, because all forms of hitting children are abusive) is pretty much equally prevalent in households of all racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds. so yeah, don’t let people use the “culture” excuse on you, but also, don’t believe others are experiencing it less just because it’s less normalized in their culture to talk about it. we all gotta work together to fix this shit.
