Auranxia - Dead Poet’s Serenity

These two are literally the same

Ichigo is still hot

The color pages of the new Bleach one-shot was leaked. 

This new story will have 73 pages and will be released on August 10. And there is a rumor that there will be more than one chapter.

We’re spreading these photos of John Boyega, and good we should. But in the midst of all that don’t ignore the haunted pain in his eyes. Or the tears running down his cheeks. There’s a brokenness there that’s been felt for generations. One sharp like shattered glass. It’s an aching that’s fueled outcry for years, we can’t ignore that

What’s the mood after seeing Infinity War

TW: pedophilia, grooming

Fuck game grumps and fuck Dan Avidan. I’ve been a fan since I was 12 years old and I can’t believe they used their platform to groom underage girls

I love that man

god. white adjacent poc who defend racism drive me b@tshit! my dude, the whites dont actually want you, so why are you doggedly attempting to earn approval points by telling them that appropriation is kool, fun, and completely ok? do you honestly think that by surrendering an aspect of your culture to white appropriation, that you’ll attain some manner of magical immunity to racism and violence when the supremacists come knocking at your door, because you defended them and told them it was ok to steal and disrespect cultural practices and symbols? 

also, who tf died and made you the token spokesperson for an entire marginalized culture? (esp. with things that are shared between cultures that have historically overlapped and mingled – it isn’t really your place as an individual to give permission to white people to appropriate smth.! if it isn’t from your culture (or entirely from your culture alone) or the same thing/something very similar belongs to neighboring cultures (possibly as a product of historical interaction and cultural overlap, like e.g. henna,  or maybe the wearing of feathers in a specific manner amongst various indigenous groups  (all for different purposes but it isn’t the place of one person to sign over Permission for whites to wear ceremonial headdresses of that type), then it isn’t something that you alone can actively “give away” to white people. 

white adjacent poc who defend the actions of whites who are guilty of cultural appropriation are the reason that marginalized identities are literally made into halloween costumes and fashion accessories. 

this also contributes to the idea that poc aren’t as worthy to be white equals; like we have to “earn our place” by actively giving/surrendering to white people something of ours for them to use/benefit from (and this leads to white artists using sacred/culturally-specific imagery and profiting off it immensely, while creators from that very culture get approximately nothing) which is also not a good look bc we shouldn’t have to “earn” equality as it’s a basic fucking human right but ok 

i understand that in some cases, this is driven by a desire for representation and to be seen/appreciated by white people, but this isn’t the correct route to be taking, here. if you want to share your culture, how abt finding somebody who, idk, actually fucking respects and genuinely appreciates both you and said culture first? idk man just a Thought

just a reminder:

a black girl character growing her hair out long breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character having short hair

a black girl character getting to be soft and fragile breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character being strong all the time

a black girl character being protected and comforted by others breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character having no one to look out for her but herself

a black girl character being considered pretty or cute by other characters breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character being considered unattractive

not everything that is empowering for white girls is empowering for black girls

the sexism we face overlaps, but it is not the same

So where are those “bleach isn’t coming back because ichiruki isn’t canon “ headasses?

I can feel that 2020 is going to change my life for the better and that i’m going to be in a new direction. I can’t even describe it, I just have a gut feeling that i’m going to meet people and be in the right place at the right time for the circumstances that are divinely timed just for me. overwhelmed with good thoughts and hopes for what is to come
