The Asian Diaspora

So um... idk... wasn't my idea to start this community lol.

But um @saigon@quokk.au talked about starting a community and... I'm like... sure...

Even thought I doubt there are many Asians here on the fediverse. This place is kinda for mostly Westerners lol.

But anyways, Hi. My other account is @deathbybigsad@sh.itjust.works (display name: Hououin Kyouma) but I wanted a different username for this since that username felt a bit depressing/edgy and too anime-y lol, so I picked Wong Ka Kui （黃家駒） for this account, who is the name of a Cantopop (Cantonese Popular Music) Singer (he's now dead btw, died from some tragic accident, RIP) from Hong Kong... and I don't listen to a lot of music btw, but I kinda like his music and the band Beyond. Like... idk... I just feel like the Cantonese language has a special place in my heart... it is my first language, my native language, the language I speak at home, so it feels very... like the part of my brain storing the language is closely linked to my emotional part of my brain... so it feels more emotional to me compared to English, for example, even though English is my now primary language and my strongest language...

Anyways... brief introductions:

I was born in Guangzhou （廣州) , China. I was the 2nd son born in my family, despite the One Child Policy being in effect at the time. (Basically, the PRC government refused to issue my legal documents, and my parents had to pay huge fines in order to get my legal documents) My family immigrated to the US when I was around 8 years old. I lived in Brooklyn, New York, USA. Then about 4 years later, we moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. I have US Citizenship now.

So um... fellow Asians around the world... feel free to introduce yourselves. Talk about stuff...

(again, I don't really expect much activities here lol)

And if you are a non-Asian, feel free to post a thread and like ask questions about... life and stuff...
