• I'm dumb, so is this mixed race or mixed ethnicity?

  Not that it matters, mostly, but I do want to get the words right. So we are reading a book on someone who is mixed Native American Ojibwe and white. Some people in my class, let’s say, are Indian (from India) and white. We agreed that would be mixed, but for example, someone who is English and Swedish would not be because they are just white. Would they not be mixed race, mixed ethnicity, or be neither?

• What is this called? Is it a situationship or something?

  So I have this one girlfriend and this one ex. We are polyamorous so I have been dating my girlfriend “Renee” for a year and my ex “Sylvia” while I was dating Renee with her permission. I’ve known Sylvia since I was 9 but I’ve known Renee since like first grade. Anyway, Sylvia occasionally flirts with me but she has two girlfriends (one is her recent girlfriend who happens to be Renee and the other is this girl “Ruby”). I’ve seen a lot of Relationship posts and I’m thinking it’s “partner pro...

• In language classes, did you choose your name or get assigned one? Or use your regular name?

  In Spanish class, we get Spanish names and can choose what we’d like to be called from a list. I’m Francisca (or Paca) because it’s similar to Francesca, my online name.

  So I’m broke and I buy the cheapest stuff. I bought an iPod Touch 6th Gen off eBay with a cracked screen and a bad battery for about $15. However, what I didn’t know was that apparently the battery was soldered to the Logic Board, which I should’ve looked up I guess… what can I do to tinker a bit with this device, make it a fun tech project, and still make it usable? It says working condition other than the bad battery…

  I can’t sign in with my Instagram account AT ALL nor can I make a new one when I use Retrogram and download Instagram through its IPA.

  Hi, so I was thinking about moving to Germany or Russia, but I have a question: which one is more open-minded? If I participate in the exchange program, I will inevitably be in Germany, but as for Germany or Russia (or maybe Latvia or Kyrgyzstan)… Which of these four countries is the safest?

  I’m learning Russian and I don’t know what it is for that, but in German I’ve seen “xier”, “sier”, and “dey”. I might use “dey/dem”.

  Hi, so I use any pronouns now but I tend to gravitate towards they/them as I’m nonbinary and faintly bigender. I saw a thread on Reddit asking people what pronouns would be used instead of they/them in Russian but it was full of people calling them weirdos and saying no one has to respect them. Because, you know, it’s Reddit. Anyway, anyone familiar with Russian, what pronouns can I use?

  Considering Russian is not only spoken in Russia but also in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan, what would be the safest country to travel to where you can speak Russian? Probably not Russia or Ukraine because of the war but yeah.

  Now that I finally got the courage not to delete this, I’m a teen boy with a girlfriend, Emma. We are both minors, this is important to the post. Emma found this YouTube channel for a show we both used to watch (we need to watch the new seasons). The person who runs it, let’s call Chris (~32M). Emma commented on Chris’s videos because she liked his random content. He is very passionate about his interests and loves making videos, he’s also autistic just like us and takes great pride in being...

  I would say this is helping because it’s allowing me to learn a language and connect with people but this dude “Jordan” (not his real name) is known as a bad person at my school. He is half German and thinks he can hate Jewish people and act like a Nazi but because he speaks German at home, it allows him to actually speak German and say rude things without people knowing. He taught me some German anyway, and it was actually normal stuff and he told me I should take German classes to immerse my...
