"Yeah, but what is it without the accent? Say your name without the accent."
Because the way it sounds while being mangled by white people is the way it's supposed to sound? OH MY GOD WHAT.
I have to admit I am probably like your friend sometimes, and I know even as the judgy words are coming out of my mouth that it's none of my business what people do. And also just that because I wish we lived in a world where no one cared how anglicised your name is or how straight your hair is doesn't mean we actually live in that world. So people have to do what they have to do, based on that. But that doesn't stop be from occasionally being sad, because I am like that.
You could write...something about some X-Men! Since I know none of your current fandoms. Sorry. :)
