The Exploring Motherhood in Arcane (Sakura-con 2026) transcript is now available on Ao3! Thank you for all your support, and a special thanks to my co-panelists @fruchtfleisch-art and @overhaulisms for the collective blood, sweat, and tears. With that, please enjoy our Mother’s Day gift!

Figurative Mothers preview:

“fig. 2. Codependence. Without their parents, this type of emotional reliance is exacerbated into codependence. In this image, we see Vi hugging a stuffed bunny to fall asleep, but Powder holds onto Vi as her comfort object, representing how Vi’s ability to depend on someone is a childhood fiction. Her support for Powder, however, is very much real. In essence, Vi is Powder’s bunny.

This thread continues when she reminisces on their youth, quote: ‘When I was a kid, some guy took my favorite toy and threw it up there. I used to come out here at night and stare at it, hoping maybe the wind or a bird might knock it down.’ (s1e01)

Here, she subconsciously admits to her hyper-independence, where the bunny symbolizes a childhood innocence and dependence on others. As a child, Vi had tried to rely on an external force to bring her bunny back; this is an expectation that she inevitably outgrows. Instead, she passes it on to Powder, facilitating that childhood innocence she worked so hard to preserve in their youth. By giving the bunny to Powder as a parting gift, she is symbolically giving Powder something to depend on in her absence.”

For anybody not caught up: Tennessee just passed a new map that pretty much makes it so black neighborhoods have no power in local votes. Two things about this. While protestors were chanting "No Jim Crow", white Tennessee lawmakers were caught laughing on video. On top of this, Representative Justin Pearson and his brother KeShaun Pearson were arrested for trying to give their takes on the matter (which is not only their legal right but literally his job). If you give a shit about black people, help fight this. We can't allow a return to Jim Crow.

Heyyy guess where I live

A local paper had some great photographs, all taken by Nicole Hester:

The day before, Rep. Justin Pearson tries to attend a Senate Committee meeting and is barred access by the Sergeant at Arms.

Lawmakers and protesters link arms as the descend the capitol steps.

Once inside the chamber, Democratic representatives continued to stand together with arms linked.

They continued standing together with arms linked as votes were cast.

Democratic representatives take a group photo protesting the redistricting.

Rep. Justin Jones burns a photo of the Confederate flag with the words, We will not go back.

And stomps the ashes.

KeShaun Pearson being escorted from the building by the Staties.

Additional information: State lawmakers have been gunning for Pearson and Jones nearly their entire terms. Most notably, in 2023, the House expelled them for participating in a protest at the Capitol. Their districts had to have special elections to have them reinstated.

Pearson is one of the plaintiffs of a lawsuit seeking an injunction against the redistricting.

The city most affected by the redistricting is Memphis, where locals are fighting against xAI's data center, which has been operating with very little oversight and is poisoning the people who live there. Here is a previous post on that with more information and more sources.

CeCe Rogers on Facebook writes: "Two Black Tennessee lawmakers were physically escorted out of chambers this week while Republicans quietly held a hearing to approve gerrymandered maps that would eliminate the state's only majority-Black congressional district.

No referendum. No special election. No public vote.

Because they know what happens when voters actually get a say — just look at Virginia, where the people spoke so loudly that Republicans had to drag the courts in to override them.

This isn't new. During Reconstruction, Black Americans held more congressional seats than at any point in the prior 90 years of American history. And white supremacists spent the next several decades tearing that down, through gerrymandering, poll taxes, and voter intimidation.

150 years later, the same tools. Different suits.

The audacity of escorting Black lawmakers out of their own chambers while dismantling Black political representation, and then telling us the courts aren't political, is breathtaking. These are the same courts they're counting on to make it stick.

This is a coordinated, multi-front assault on Black Americans. And we need to say it exactly that plainly."

Lucky's mother disappeared nearly 14 years ago. He'd always wondered what drove such a respected member of their community to not only leave, but never come back. On his 24th birthday, Lucky discovers his mother's secret hidden within Grandad's barn: a race car, old, rusted, and forgotten. With the help of his long-time-crush Vick, Lucky enters an illegal street racing tournament to find answers about his mother's past.

As Lucky is questioned about a hit-and-run murder, chased by police, and stalked by a demon-hunting cult leader, he realizes the car has hidden secrets of its own.

A 15-year-old boy is about to base his entire personality on the last movie you watched for the next 10 years. HOW BAD IS IT?

He is going to get himself killed. Badly.

He is going to (try to) kill himself

The most obnoxious person in the world has just been born

FURRY (derogatory)

FURRY (normal)

Not much has changed? But now he's stuck like this for 10 years? Yikes.

It's cringe but it could have been a lot worse

At least he'll have fun at Comic Con

If anything this is a slight improvement.

He's not a boy anymore. He's a man now.

She's not a boy anymore. She's a girl now.

FINALLY, a son I can be proud of!

"I've never heard of Megan Thee Stallion before" if you've ever said any variation of "Hot Girl Summer" then congratulations you've benefitted from an internationally popular Black female artist's creativity

[creatingblackcharacters]

"I thought those were just memes" yeah y'all tend to do this to a lot of things Black people create and/or do, while conveniently cutting them out in the process. You should really consider how easy it was and why that is. I do have a suggestion.
