society if cass was drawn brown more

Seriously though, people Cassandra has a paler skin tone in Batgirls than the actual white girls in the book. Does that not offend you?

#dc #this omfg #why tf is she a pale vampire ass #cass has been steadily and slowly whitewashed over the years and i fucking hate it #she used to have a different skin tone then the white people she’d interact w and brown eyes but now she’s as pale as a va #-as a vampire and often has blue or grey eyes #and fuck the chucklefucks who make excuses and/or claim she hasn’t been whitewashed #literally just check out the batgirl (2000) series #esp the first issue where she vv obv has a darker skin tone/is brown and has brown eyes #cassandra cain

the day the fandom realizes dick never told tim to fuck off to arkham is the day i can finally have peace

#this #dc #dick grayson #tim drake

just wanna see batman!damian & red hood!steph w robin!dick and considering dick’s canonically the angry robin, it’d be amusing seeing damian and steph try to tone down the emo for dick’s sake but probably not doing that good of a job at first

steph shooting some person in the kneecaps before remembering dick’s there and awkwardly telling him to not shoot people, dick opening his mouth to point out the hypocrisy of that before damian beats him to it amd starts scolding steph

while he unwittingly uses a more-brutal-then-needed LOA on another goon on instinct/muscle memory

#damian wayne #stephanie brown #dick grayson #the dick damian & steph trio during batman!dick era were all kinda disasters and imo we should get to see more of that in fanon too #esp in reverse robin aus #don’t tag as ship #or i’ll take your kneecaps #headcanons #hcs #batman #batgirl #robin #red hood #red hood steph #batman damian #robin dick

three romanian authors to read with ur dracula daily

dracula is an orientalist text conceived at the height of british empire, grounded on distortions of a region that stoker never visited. sadly (and unsurprisingly) i found very few romanian authors who have been translated into english online, so here’s a meagre list of recs:

1. luminița cioabă

romanian roma author, famous in romania as the daughter of bulibasha (the king of the roma nation), she forged her own path as a writer of short stories in the oral roma tradition which portray in vivid detail the history of the roma people of romania

the birch grove

queen of the night and stone flower

meralda

from her book, the lost country

2. marin sorescu

from humble rural romanian roots, he wrote under the oppressive ceausescu government. in a national ironic tradition he very famously said: "Just as I can’t give up smoking because I don’t smoke, I can’t give up writing because I have no talent.“ some of my favorite poems:

the sea shell (1983)

carbon paper (1980)

creation (1992)

3. paul celan

jewish romanian poet from bucovina. i recommend this beautiful essay by ilya kaminsky, who like celan was forced to flee eastern europe due to antisemitism, deconstructing various translators’ attempts to adapt celan’s texts and experience of the holocaust. these are all poems from a 1971 poetry collection

all souls

leap-centuries

language mesh and night

homecoming

i'm so fucking tired of international media reporting on the philippine election with the undertone of "poor uncivilized savage uneducated little brown asian country is so so sooooo stupid for electing a dictator's son" as if there aren't thousands on the streets protesting it, as if there isn't electoral fraud, as if there aren't people staying at voting precincts for over 24 hours just to be denied their right to vote, as if this isn't a product of decades of US-backed imperialism and as if foreign powers don't have a hand in this decades-long project of historical revisionism. if you aren't reporting about the philippine election with these contexts in mind then don't report at all because fuck you we do not need your pity nor your "help"

Hey, so I’m super excited that Dracula Daily is a thing, but I feel like I should warn people that one of the main characters in the novel is a guy that runs a lunatic asylum, and his scenes might be kinda hard to read for anyone who’s been through psychiatric abuse.

I would appreciate it if people reblogged this post and didn’t tag it with spoilers or put trigger warnings on it, since it’s important that this warning is seen by the people who need to see it. Thanks!
