I Am Not Your Asian American Doll: a comic for AAPI Heritage Month 2023
I usually spend a lot of time editing and fine-tuning my comics so that they come across as polite and inoffensive. But honestly, I’m really tired of the way Asian cultures and countries are treated / talked about while Asian people themselves are excluded, and thought it was about time I really let my rage out lol.

tell us about your gini au!!
I SAW THIS IN THE MORNING AND FORGOT TO ANSWER SORRYY
ok so i campe up with it when wish you were sober played after boys and girls because fucking smart shuffle and i tried to make it pipabeth (selene if youre reading this hopefully i will eventually start the other one) at first but i didnt want to villainise jason or percy.
so. nini likes ricky but doesnt want to tell him because first of all ew cringe second of all their friendship will get awkward. then, at some party he kisses her wile they're both drunk (ricky significantly more drunk). she thinks he likes her back because drunk actions sober thoughts but he says that it was probably just an in the moment thing. this happens a few more times.
At another party, she's over all this and i just kinda standing in the corner while he's socializing. enter gina. she was here with ash who then sees maddox and yk. gini start talking, a little bit of flirting, then ricky shows up. basically shoves his tongue down nini's throat. gina thinks she got the wrong message and starts to leave, nini goes after her and says that its a long story. they then go out of the house to a nearby park and just confide in each other about stuff. and i havent figured out the rest but it will eventually lead to dating and cutesyness

My name is also Heba. But when i was her age, i was always within the embrace of my mother. food and shelter were not a thing my parents had to worry about. Why am i almost 24 years old, but she didn't even get to 4 months old? what is this world we are living in?

reva gimme a hot take
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Uttarakhand doesn't actually exist. It's a farce peddled by Nepal to take over India. What better way to do this than through a state that's supposed to be "Nepal adjacent"? They may have the entire country fooled, but you can't fool me
Another hot take I put milk before cereal and so should everyone

Gender presentation here means the way you physically appear in public most of the time.
Obviously there are short fem hairstyles and long masc hairstyles/anyone can have any length hair. This is just surveying the wider trends.
