this makes me want to cry

#crunchyposts #pjo #pjotv #guys i also have been obsessed with this series for years it means so much to me that the actors are also fans of the book #it doesnt mention it here but i know leah's said that she was so excited to play annabeth to be 'the girl in her brothers books' #since she got his old copies when he left for college (?) #this means absolutely everything to me rep in media means so much to me bc of how little i understood myself as a kid since i never saw #anyone like me and pjo was the first time i saw someone whse brain was kidna like mine and so many things clicked into place after that #and as a queer girl and someone who's south east asian i rarely saw anyone like me on tv and ive still never seen any demiro char on screen #but now they actually have a non white nd character and its /my/ favorite character and its gonna mean so much to younger black girls #100 #150 #200 #300 #400 #500 #1k #1.5k #2k

The fact that G3 CAN make black character deisgns..

And then made Clawdeen the most white washed version of herself is fucking evil actually.

You're telling me..Venus looks GOOD and actually looks black coded but the ONE(1) black character we had.

Is light skin, mixed, her personality is softer and more watered down and her original style is washed out??

Fuck you. Tf.

Clawdeen should've gotten the same treatment, but noooo let's make her mixed despite. Already have two latina(? Corrent term??) characters (Lagoona and Skellita) so..why couldn't Clawdeen be kept BLACK? Why did she need to be mixed for her to be the main character?? It's fucking gross and weird.

#j.p speaks #monster high #monster high g3 #venus looks soo good. and then theres clawdeen #whos an entire train wreck of a creation #i HATE how this reboot made a black girl mixed and everyone ate the shit up cuz Frankie was announced as NB like. #okay..one step forward and 100 steps back. its not inclusive if it only seems to include white passing characters

i agree that latinos experience xenophobia/racism just for being latinos, but also i cant help but laugh when white latinos try to pull the race card. girl you cant even take a photo with the flash on

#source: im brazilian and white #idk man her i guess we just see things differently #like once i saw someone saying they were half brazilian #as in their mom was brazilian and they were born in american #in my head i was like...... so youre american?....????? #latino isnt an ethnicity??? #i guess we separate ethinicity and nationality here so whenever i see people talking about it as one thing i just dont get it #its not even a gatekeepy thing like 'oh you cant call yourself latino!!!!' or 'youre not a REAL brazilian' i deadass dont get it #culturally its another thing i 100% get when people say oh my ma was brazilian so yknow im brazilin #its one of the reasons why i never understood why people got so mad when they put like black characters in anime or smth #like they can be japanese and black? #idk i rememberd when someone described my as a poc artist and i found it funny. i cant go out in the sun for long lest i look shrimp pink #like i cant even tan.. #anyways. #that being said. i saw someone saying vivz1ep0p is poc so she couldnt be racist and i looked it up and shes like half salvadorian #girl..... lol

guess who got bored and decided to color-swatch most of the lh characters

now obviously take all of this with a grain of salt since we all know color-picking from screenshots and models isn't the best way to get their skin tone due to color theory and color-picking being pixel but pixel but its the general kind of skin tone they have so <3

It's time for my annual controversial Hunger Games post

The fact that Gale is so villianized is such a strong testament to the fact that people will only stand with the oppressed if they find them palpable enough. If you think his anger was extreme and his actions were unnecessary, then you have no real grasp on how revolutions actually work.

#I can understand not liking him on a personal level for how he treats Katniss #But I'm talking about the people who villianize him for his actions and feeling during the war and revolution #Suzanne Collins did a remarkable job using real life revolutions as models for her books #Everybody is basing whether or not everybody's actions were justified around how Katniss personally felt and it doesnt work like that #Because yes Katniss's input was necessary and important but so was everybody elses #Because if it was all up to Katniss 100% realistically they would not have won the revolution #Which makes sense because Katniss was a 16 year old girl and it would be unreasonable and unfair to expect her to be the sole decision make #They all helped win the war - Gale included #This is also evident in how people react to Johanna vs Gale when their actions are so similar and if anything Johanna would be more violent #But Johanna is more palpable so people support her more #Its just such an obvious example of the fact that people don't care about the oppressed unless they find them personally likeable #And people don't want to acknowledge the undesirable parts of wars and revolutions and what it takes out of people #People just want to see everybody as black and white #ANYWAYS Suzanne Collins is a genuis I adore her #the hunger games #catching fire #the mockingjay #gale hawthorne #katniss everdeen #thg #gale #katniss and gale

Can we see more of Jadekat and their 612 babies...do they have any names besides Jadekat jr jr jr

i dont think theyre that creative to come up with any other names for their kids

though the image is inaccurate! its actually 613 kids (due to the one karkats holding in the photo) that ones name is jadekat jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr jr

#jadekat #argt #though one of the kids name is tibet (as in the rose) #the joke is that one is the one that looks the most like karkat and white roses represent the cancer zodiac... and jade likes gardening.... #boom. Genius #i made that up on the spot. not the fact (IT IS TRUE!!!) .. the fanchild #ok if im being honest IM not creative enough to come up with any other names #their 612 ... 613.. kids are very hard to handle and karkat is usually the one dealing with them #imagine being a casual citizen on earth c and you see a troll with more than 612.. 613 kids just being dragged across-> #->with those small leashes parents put on their kids to keep them in place. but like it doesnt work for karkat in this situation because-> #its more than 100 kids. hes going to be flug across the street if those kids all got interested in one thing at the same time #jade and karkat arent the “girlboss and malewife” dynamic no its the girl who has baby fever and the male who is like a-> #overworked cigarette mom #but he wouldnt smoke #they have kids... if he was smoking jade would kill him for that ..... #ok but back on the names like the first 2 ones were given original names and by kid 27 they started the 'jadekat jr' shit #“why didnt they stop by kid ..5..” baby fever

summer salieri to match summer dantes.

WAIT Elle has box braids in s3??? I could cry

I don't think she had bad hair in s1 or s2, but I'm excited that they're actually giving the Black girls Black hairstyles instead of having them wear it out.

Before, it felt like the (all-white, for context) hair department was just ignorant about Black hair, so they put wigs on the Black actresses and only did styles that also work on nonblack hair for their own sake/convenience. This theory was especially supported by the fact that Tara, whose 4c hair couldn't really be styled the same as nonblack hair, wore a twistout that would take literal hours to do every day, but she had box braids in s2! and Elle has box braids now!! I'm so excited!!!

I also feel like this fits her bold, fashion-loving personality so much better than leaving her hair out. Our hair is basically its own accessory, and the long box braids are very feminine. Again, I'm not saying not having a protective style isn't feminine or fashionable (I myself am a fashion girlie with an Afro), but having one is another outlet for her creativity, and I'm glad they're recognizing that now.

#shimmer's thoughts #heartstopper #elle argent #i have heard that apparently black people aren't allowed to have braids in uk schools? which is legitimately fucking wild #although it kinda looks like this had a big turning point in 2022 according to a quick google? but i'm not 100% sure #it depends on how much influence the ehrc has over the government. which doesn't seem to be much #we do have hair dress codes with huge anti-black bias here but no braids usually isn't in there explicitly #or something that's enforced afaik #all that to say it might just be that this happens to be a summer season and that's why their hair is like that #although even then I don't think Tara would be doing a twistout every day #i think slicking takes way less time so she'd probably be doing that if they didn't like afros either #she might though. i don't know exactly why she would do that but she might decide to do that #also to clarify again i'm not saying not having a protective style as a black girl is bad or negative or anything #i'm saying in the context of the hair and makeup team being completely white #and alice oseman being a white person who originally only gave the comic characters wavy/barely curly hair #them not giving them protective(/realistic for Tara) styles was sus. and this is a welcome change #i mean. we haven't seen Tara's hair for this season yet. and they really love that twistout #so maybe i shouldn't get my hopes up yet. but i'll give them their flowers for this at least

Y’all ever read a book that disturbs you so much it fucks with your writing?

#this is about R. F. Kuang’s #yellowface #which truth be told I couldn’t finish because I got too much 2ndhand embarrassment #had to just skim through the last 100 pages cuz I couldn’t take it anymore #I need to learn my lesson and stop trying to read that insufferable traumatized white woman unreliable narrator genre of books #you know #the girl on the train-esque type books #my other personal problem with this book was that it hit a lil too close to home #cuz I’m a korean-American woman who nearly went into the publishing industry #might’ve dodged a bullet there lol #will say though that the book is good #if you like that unreliable narrator traumatized white woman genre I recommend it #moonie posting

I am begging Disney to stop doing stuff like this with their live action remakes.

So what you mean is you’ve changed the themes and beats of the story so that it’s no longer recognizable as that story. Gotcha.

#it’s one thing to have different versions of things that go in different directions #i loved mirror mirror a lot when that came out and that certainly wasn’t traditional #nor was the tough thief snow we got introduced to at the beginning of once upon a time #but those are their own things — this is supposed to be an adaptation of their own dang material #and yet they keep insisting on altering the most important things about their own past movies in favor of modernization #what’s so bad about a young girl dreaming of love? what’s so bad about her needing help in horrible situations? would we not all want help? #i’m sick of them acting like things are sexist and require changing if a woman is actually feminine #or heaven forbid doesn’t have 100% control over her life #@disney get a grip #how did you go so downhill from wonderful cinderella to this #disney #snow white 2024

..why do people think Minthe or ANY of the nymphs are poc coded??? Like..I wanna know.

Is it cuz they're disrespected ?? Cuz the gods are assholes and talk down to beings weaker than them. Like what IS poc coded about them besides that.

When nymphs are literally weaker than most gods/ they can die..hence why God's are so damn disrespectful cuz OFC they would be. That's the way it is. Is it right?? No, but logically what are they gonna do?? They'd die, which is fucked up obvi.

I just..I'm sooo confused. NO one in this comic is poc coded cuz Rachel sucks at that shit, sure Pysches there..but i feel like her design was just shoved in for brownie points cuz..she's unnecessary now. Also..why would only the nymphs be poc coded. Why would the species that's LITERALLY below the gods (in their terms, cuz again. They're gods) be Poc coded. Why would you want that 😶

(Ofc have your headcanons, I draw my Zeus as black just cuz it's fun, so I'm not saying don't do that. I just find it interesting when people think she's poc coded in the actual comic? )

#j.p speaks #lore olympus #lore olympus critical #im CONFUSED. #like minthe is great and all but..why do yall see her as poc coded?? #like..is not weird as fuck to think ALL the nymphs specifically are poc coded?? why?? #i dont mind headcanons obvi but minthe?? all the nymphs?? im..confused. #cuz wouldnt that just..be weird as shit. minthe is struggling with money has bpd(?) and then she gets cursed by a 'white' girl???? #what #that would make it 100 times worse. #lo critical #minthe #minthe lore olympus

hm the diversity everybody seems to be ok with (all white cast and a token) is what forced diversity actually is, not when the best person for a lead role just so happens to not be white/mostly not white cast but we all know what people mean by "forced diversity" so I'm not gonna lament too much anymore

#i was looked for gifs of a specific short film only find some reactionary racist shit abt the little mermaid remake #like i did at one point start to think maybe they did cast halle so there would be more buzz but shes actually genuinely #the best for the role #i always knew she was!!! and if anything disney doesn't need diversity points to make money they will make it regardless #if you want to say something like 'ariel being black makes the story so much worse' then actually..... talk about it don't just say that #because you wish a white girl was playing ariel 😂 ofc its white people saying this so they could never actually #delve into it. like we can 100% talk abt how alot of the dynamics have changed in the live action movie because of the race #of characters but if you do not know what language to use or you're just using it to hide being racist idgaf abt what you have to say lmfao #im only say this because the person was convinced halle was cast as ariel because disney wants diverity points and not because #she was the best for the rolw #its never they were the best for the role when actor isnt white is it?
