if your love for a shittily written FICTIONAL world is greater than that of real living, breathing, suffering minorities you dont deserve to say you care about us, you dont

its either the stupid transphobe or trans people, you dont get to pick and choose your ally ship

I want Lisa McGee to be given full control of 10,000 projects so I can spend the rest of my days absorbing her work into my neurons.

Seriously she’s out here beating the allegations that creators have no original ideas. She’s out here with some of my favorite storylines and some of the best ever character work. She’s tackles serious and poignant themes with both grace and comedy in equal measure.

No one writes women as flawed and realistic people as well as her. I love Lisa McGee and the women she writes.

Like I just love her work and my only complaint is that she can’t provide it to me endlessly.

why is no one talking about saoirse and greta in how to get to heaven from belfast…they are literally the new jackieshauna. homoerotic besties that share fucked up experiences as teens and then adult greta dies* and adult saoirse has to reckon with that…WHY ARE YALL NOT ALL WATCHING HOW TO GET TO HEAVEN FROM BELFAST

PLEASE watch How To Get To Heaven From Belfast. It's a murder mystery and comedy by the creator of Derry Girls. it's got intrigue. It's got three women entering their 40s struggling with grief, guilt, anxiety, ptsd, and keeping secrets. One of these women is a neurotic tv writer, one is a repressed catholic butch lesbian, and one is a mother of three boys desperately trying to handle her anger issues while keeping her manicures looking fantastic.

All of the one-off and side characters are bizarre, disconcerting, or just plain weird and I love all of them. The murder mystery is one of the only one's I haven't been able to figure out before the last episode. It's colorful, it's suspenseful, and it's some of the best mystery writing outside Knives Out. It's so great to see women written as messy and strange and loveable and flawed as the ones in this show. I highly recommend watching it because I would love to see more shows like this out in the world.

my mother and i started watching it and at the end of the first episode just turned to each other like "we can't stop there...."

Lily has lived in the same flat for her first two years of university, but this is the first time she'll have new roommates. And when a strange cock-up from the management leads to a misunderstanding, she finds herself stuck in a longer-than-expected text thread with a cast of characters she didn't see coming.

I'm going to ask a question that isn't meant to be accusative, but does mean a lot to me in the wake of a serious rise in anti-Indian and South Asian racism, especially in Canada but across the world as well.

I know this will definitely ruffle feathers, but I am not trying to compete in trauma olympics. Many communities have been abused; Indians and South Asians* have suffered invisibly. I want to know if the trauma we endure is known outside our cultures.

Did you know (before today) that Indians (and South Asians) were sold into servitude** across the world?

Yes

No

Remaining time: 18 minutes

*Limiting the scope of the question to just South Asians; several Asian populations were historically abused in similar ways.

**Scholarship currently categorizes the labour as indentured servitude. There is an argument to be made about it actually being slavery, but that is not for a tumblr post.

I would appreciate reblogs.

Edit since a few people have spoken in tags about contemporary labour: this post is about British colonialism.

Please reblog this version.

racist white canadians and europeans want you to believe the slave trade worked like this

it did not. it is public knowledge the slave trade worked like this

and in fighting antiblackness within canada and europe it is so so so important to acknowledge these places's participation in and benefit from the transantlantic slave trade. Slavery is not just the US's dirty past, it is a triangular industry lasting centuries that white people in the united states, canada, and europe benefitted from and continue to benefit from to this day. Slavery was good for white canadians and white europeans. They liked it. they encouraged it. they had slaves, they profited from the slave trade, and they used products grown from US slave labour in every day life. The slavery of Black people would not have been possible on the sheer scale at which it happened if it were not for active, consistent participation from europe and canada.
