serious topic shift bc whilst digging for genshin redesigns i was reminded about how much you guys HATE black people (& its BHM so you guys are more rampant than ever w this shit).
blackwashing is not, & will never be a concept, nor a word, that exists or makes any logical sense. contrary to how all of you love to slap “washing” at the end of any word to equate it to whitewashing, that just… isn’t how it works.
whitewashing IS the word that it is because whiteness is seen as clean. Ie: you’re washing away everything that was dirty about a topic. From whitewashing historically black characters, to removing and rewriting every part of history to make white people look like the good guys in relation to their black counterparts.
you cannot slap ‘black’ onto that and have it mean the same thing. bc even in 2024, everything in relation to blackness is still considered to be dirty. (yes, this especially means your favourite east asian companies and content creators. i know how much you guys love to give them a special pass to hate on black skin just because they’re east asian).
so feel however you want abt black edits (or literally just redesigns that give these games any sort of skin diversity. because how are you recreating nations from all around the world yet only have 4 characters that are grey at best); but the moment you use ‘blackwashing’ or in any way equate it to whitewashing, anything you have to say is invalid. because its clear that the literate part of your brain is null & not functioning.

i have no words. juanki’s coaching strategy is literally just telling carlos that “jannik is going to do it and we have to do it” and it fucking works

@ queer people. Friendly reminder, a fictional ship does not have to kiss, fuck, or outwardly confess their relationship to each other on screen to be canon. If two women have committed their whole lives to each other and raised a child together, they’re canon, whether the piece of media outright says it or not. When it comes to queer romance you must read between the lines, because creators cannot always directly state when two people in their story are queer. Remember, if they did, the show would probably get cancelled, like all other queer media.

about 90% of my brain runs solely on associations and one of the worst ones i have is when im playing the sims 4 and trying to pick out a blue chair.
because way back when (2018ish), i was watching a documentary on jonestown, called jonestown: the life and death of the peoples temple, while playing the sims 4 because adhd brain. and as i was trying to pick out a blue chair for a bedroom, there was a lady (i think her name was june) talking about how she got involved with the peoples temple, and it was quite memorable so association formed immediately.
so now, anytime im trying to pick out a blue chair in the sims 4, i just remember her explaining that her mother-in-law was in need of a new pet monkey, because her previous monkey had hung itself, so she looked in the newspaper for a new monkey and found jim jones selling monkeys, and so her mother-in-law meets him about the monkey and he invites her to his church, and at no point does she indicate that any part of this story is weird which is besides the point but bears mentioning in my brain.

Okay yeah, insta-guy says s3 is the best season, that it’s the one that “finally” managed to draw him into the plot and care for the characters. He gave s1 and s2 a score of 7/10 and s3 a 9/10 😀
