so, watched ep 1 of the atla live action and uhm, imagine not wanting one of your main characters to depict sexism because you believe it doesn’t read well in Current Times, so instead you double down on the character’s obsession towards leadership in order to give him that extra edge. but in order to make that work u have to make his sister quietly obedient instead of an outspoken leading presence that has the potential to overshadow him. because silencing a female character in order to write out a male character’s story arc of unlearning sexism is obviously a better and less sexist outcome.

i’m not normally one to bring negative vibes onto my blog but i’ve gotten a sudden wave of unease being on here tbh so im considering drifting from here for a little bit once more. i’ve thought about creating a new blog but also wouldn’t want to waste the masterlist that i’ve worked hard to build for the people who enjoy my work + support me!
i’ve never had a super close circle of friends as such on here but i’m very grateful for the few friends i have made that continue to interact with me. i do really enjoy tumblr and i love creating, i’m grateful for the interaction i get and i know i’ve been on here a while but there always seems to be a sort of uneasiness that i feel stems from previous problems with other people on here.
it can feel a little silly from a blog like me feeling a little ‘outcasted’ and i don’t even know if i’d use that word, but i’ve just never been one that felt comfortable with the sort of underground, high school energy that i sometimes feel radiate around here. i guess i sometimes feel like i’m walking on egg shells to avoid sub posts / bad energy because i really only want to enjoy myself! but yeah, i’m gonna be less active for a few days atleast because i really need the rest anyway after my holiday + a few things on here have just sort of triggered my mental health.
but just know i love all of u, thank u for everything no matter what <3

Just saw some Free Palestine supporters on the road to my parents’ house and was about to wave at them but then I saw a couple of them holding signs making disgusting antisemitic jokes about Passover. Guys seriously how fucking difficult is it to just. Not do that 😭 You’re really not giving Palestine extra help by making horrible comments and jokes about Jews ffs can you not just promote support for Palestine without bringing hatred for entire minority demographics into it DURING THE TIME OF A RELIGIOUS HOLIDAY. It is remarkably easy to criticise Israel without antisemitism and if you can’t do that then maybe you should stay out of the movement because you’re causing much more harm than good

i’m incredibly angry every time a show gets cancelled always for the same reasons that the numbers weren’t satisfying enough
greed is taking over creativity and passion
it’s already enough to make me sad about the world we live in
also i already feel powerless when it comes to every disaster happening everywhere because i think that i’m too small and i can’t change things
but with fandoms i see the dedication of every single person and how amazing the group effort is
yet it’s still not enough
so i feel powerless depressed and overall beaten by this hellish system they created because of greed im just really devastated over this more than the show honestly at this point

K so this isn't related to SoC (not entirely) but N*tfl*x canceled Lockwood and Co. bc apparently it didn't hit the target of views as to get renewed, which is bullshit since it was n1 on A LOT of countries. So, in light of literally every show that's not abt horny teenagers with pick-me problems, getting canceled after one season, regardless of how they do in the charts; I don't wanna be nihilistic but there's a high probability of, not only Shadow and Bone being canceled, but also of not getting the Six of Crows spin-off, and it's fucking depressing

I had been weirded out by the way DogBlud has talked about our ADHD with us, but like..god, man.
Why would you tell someone "I need to act as your brain, otherwise you'll forget things"? Specifically because of their ADHD? I never signed up for that.
She got mad when we couldn't make it to work days days during the holidays. During Christmas. On Christmas. During Birthdays. I had hoped it was distress from a changed schedule, but, even she acknowledged that the holidays would be a huge off time...so...mm...
"I don't trust you to do certain things because of your ADHD." I...
"Our ADHD is gonna ruin everything." Wh...
I look back now and see an example of how to Not talk to people. Anyone. At best, she was trying to accommodate for everybody's needs by putting our disabilities into the conversation and raising concerns. But. Only verbally. The moment someone missed a deadline, we'd receive angry DMs. Even though we had all agreed at the start to test out schedules and not follow hard ones just yet. That it would ve at least taken 6 months to a year before we'd see traction on our site.
Im treating this like a workplace. I'm saying what I did and didn't like. The personal stuff I don't have anything for just yet other than my word and my feelings.

I'm checking this account's bookmarks on AO3. And holy-
You labeled one of the greatest Percico fanfic of all times as "meh. it's ok."???
Respectfully, I refuse to accept your 'judgement'.

If you're a UK citizen, please sign. (You cannot sign unless you are a UK citizen). We shouldn't be punished for falling in love with someone from another country. And certainly shouldn't have to earn above the average UK wage.

Currently the financial requirements to bring your spouse to the UK is £18,600 per year and now the Government wants to more than double it. Most people in the UK don’t make that per year. We believe this policy punishes those who fall in love with someone with a different nationality. 59,809 signatures out of 100,000.]

Having the same birthday as another (and more popular) student isn't rly the best..
Also, other that one teacher, nobody at school remembered it was my birthday, not even my friends, not until I reminded them, which was.. quite saddening,
But when I learnt that that one teacher actually remembered I sOBBed in front of him-
Shout out to Mr G ✨

Never watched this show but I’m noticing a pattern here.
I knew Netflix were fucking DUMB but this is insane.
Inside Job, Dead End, 1899, Warrior Nun, now this, they cancel everything as soon as it’s getting started.
Why even bother.
It’s a disgraceful practice borne out of an endless and immediate desire for more fucking money,
For fuckness’ sake!
Feel free to reblog this.

Just need to say how grateful I am to my Tumblr community 🙏💜. Love you guys so much. It's my only safe place rn.
I can't vent on Facebook or Instagram bc my awful in-law family is watching like hawks. I'm still stuck in a shit situation, but every time I go on, Tumblr, I feel a little less shit.

Being visibly mixed race/racially ambiguous and visibly trans/GNC is being inherently confusing and unreadable to white cis people. Like, they can tell you're sure as hell not a white man or woman but they can't decipher you beyond that; they don't know how what to do with you because they can't put you in any category.
You are both masculine and feminine, but not enough of either to fulfil the white criteria for manhood or womanhood, and regardless, brown people are gendered differently to white people anyway. You could tick off almost all the criteria for "male" features (such as, and notably, body hair) and still be read as a cis woman, because the level of masculinity white people accept in brown (perceived) women is higher than what they accept in white (perceived) women, because brownness itself is masculine to them. (Though it can be feminine and androgynous at the same time, too. Again, POC are gendered differently than white people.)
They have these set ideas of how they're meant to relate to people, set ways that they treat, let's say, white women, Black men, East Asian women, Middle Eastern men - but they can't even tell what you are, so how are they meant to treat you? How are they meant to relate to you?
I don't doubt at all that this is why I've always been ignored in public, even before transitioning; never treated as a fellow person to connect with, but an anomaly that happens to occupy the same spaces. I scare them by defying categorization, so it's better not to engage and risk upsetting their preconceived notions of gender and race. Alternatively, they will just be bigots instead, though I can tell that's hard for them too as they aren't quite sure what specific flavour of bigotry to throw at me.
[cw for following paragraph: non-graphic description of an incident of racist and transphobic harassment]
I always think back to this one time, having recently come out, when I was harassed by a white man on the bus. Seeing me in all my gender ambiguity and reading me as Black, he expressed his disgust at us Black people, at how "you can never fucking tell whether they're girls or boys". Honestly, in all my interactions with white cis people from then on, I never stopped feeling the echoes of his words.
