I got muted there for calling out racism. Had a post earlier talking about racism to them had so many people in the comments thread saying such racist things against other countries. Doesn’t only happen there. In the other similar subreddits you can see it often in posts like which country did you not like, guaranteed always racists in the comments. Hate when it happens to them but when they do it it’s different. Often racist towards East Asians and foreigners. If you find the posts and comments you will get auto-removed in their safe space. Fighting racism with racism

생활 | Daily Life An autumn evening stroll under the streetlights at a Seoul apartment complex 🍂

I was just passing by a completely ordinary apartment complex, but the streetlights and the autumn leaves were so beautiful.

Come to think of it, life has so many beautiful things around us, but I feel like we often fail to see or feel them because they are too close and familiar.

It’s really sad because people these days seem so dry, exhausted, and defensive.

I think enjoying these little moments and giving yourself some breathing room is just as important as it is necessary. This, too, is a true form of self-protection.

I just wanted to share this. Hope everyone is having a peaceful evening. ✨

Taken from my home in Yongdam-dong, Jeju City, on Jeju Island, South Korea.

Fishing boat lights toward the sea, planes approaching the nearby airport, and a little pavilion glowing among the trees.

I moved here in 2019, but familiar evenings like this still make me reach for my camera.

While I was winding down at home, someone offshore was beginning another working night.

What’s one ordinary view near your home that you never get tired of? ^^
