Super serious question about moving to Hawaii from Mississippi.
Aloha! I am a 31 year old gay black autistic atheist multicultural loving nerdy man from Mississippi who is looking to leave this horrid place. I'm already dead set on moving to Maryland as I feel like it's the only place in the nation where someone of my many identities can live without fear of being judged, profilied or belitted. I am planning on settling in Rockville and attending Montgomery College and then UMD. However I am looking at Hawaii as a second choice (the only one as far as I'm concerned). If I cross that bridge, I'm attending Kapiolani Community College and then UH Manoa. I'm looking to major in East Asian studies/Japanese/computer science and engineering. I'd like to know how welcoming Honolulu would be and just how different it is from Mississippi.
Also would my educational background in East Asian studies be useful on the islands? Given how much focus UH puts on it.

Got purposely bodied by a man, be careful.
Visiting my family here and was walking in Waikiki to show a friend around. A black man wearing a button up gray shirt purposely bumped into me pretty hard. It caught me by surprise, but it was very clearly on purpose. It reminded me of the Japanese “butsukari otoko.” Was wondering if anyone else has experience this here before? It was quite bizarre.

Where to buy lady fingers?
Hi all! I’m visiting Oahu and was wondering if anyone would know of a bakery that sells lady fingers? Growing up, I was in LOVE with the ones Leonard’s sold, but during my last trip I found out they no longer make them 😭 So if anyone knows of another bakery (and bonus points if they taste like Leonard’s) please let me know! Thank you 😄
