I'm a Vietnamese cis woman born and currently living in the U.S. You may know me from Sandwich, from Twitter or Mastodon (same username), or on Twitch as Sharkaeopteryx. I do not have a Discord or Bluesky account.
Ask me about language learning/teaching, cooking/eating food, late diagnosis ADHD, and volunteer small business mentoring. Or don't, I'm not the boss of you.
I think people deserve to be young, make mistakes, and grow without being held to standards they don't know about yet and are still learning. So, if you are under 22, please don't try to strike up a friendship or get involved in discussions on my posts.
Please don't automatically assume I follow/know/co-sign someone just because I reposted something from them—sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Also, if you think being removed as a follower when we're not mutuals is a cardinal sin, please do not follow me.
On December 10, 2023, Ana Caroline Sousa Campêlo, a 21 years old GNC lesbian woman, was brutally murdered in Brazil. The community mourns her death as a result of lesbophobia and mobilizes under hashtag #JustiçaPorCarol.

Little to none English coverage is available, but automated translation will give you the gist.
Coletiva Lesbo Amazonidas has started a petition on AllOut to investigate Ana Caroline Sousa Campelo's murder and take a stand against lesbophobia in Brazil.
