mymusician... oughh my little bug [remembers parasocial relationships are bad] [remembers infantilization is bad] this complete stranger is their own huge bug

really liked the backrooms movie right up until the racism

I want to be extremely clear I am not at all upset about the casting decision or about Clark being a flawed character making harmful decisions, or anything of that nature. he was an interesting character, and Chiwetel Ejiofor did an excellent job. I am specifically upset about One Scene toward the end, which felt like a thoughtless directing decision and a (hopefully unintentional) perpetuation of a quite nasty stereotype that's been embedded in the US' racist milieu for centuries.

they did not need to give that version of Clark bulging eyes, making him look uncomfortably like a racist caricature. and they did not need to make him overpower Mary in such a full-body way that uncomfortably resembled sexual assault. they could have done his makeup differently. they could have directed that scene in a different way.

Fear of Big Scary Black Man Brutalizing White Woman has been used to justify unspeakable violence against black men since the 1800s. seeing this scene presented as it was, uncritically, thoughtlessly, put a strange damper on what was otherwise a very interesting and unique film. this trope needs to fall by the wayside.

I think it's insane that even in the most leftist and "progressive" spaces the idea of equating morality with looks is alive and present and no one fucking bats an eye at it. like racists and mysoginysts are always portrayed as fat and hairy and generally unkept, as a contrast to the morally good and attractive leftists of course; people will have no problem being genuinely fucking awful about someone's appearance if they're deemed to be a "bad person". and the worst part is you point all of this out and people act like you're reading too much into things like no dude you gotta start using your brain more

canaries were used in coalmines due to their incredibly hard beaks, they could break through stone as well as any pickaxe

Please start that project you're thinking about. Post it anywhere you can. Let people see the art you can bring to the world. Please, I want to see it. Just type that first word. I believe in you!

does anyone know if it’s okay to want things or let yourself have them

Isabela!

I polled my followers to see their favorite Bioware companions, and who they would like me to do next. I’ve already done the winner, Morrigan, and here is 2nd place (1st in my heart) Isabela! It’s transparent too, because I like the shape of her hair.

Thank you all for sticking with me :)

You can’t even make fun of someone for dating people younger than them anymore without being accused of discoursing. What if I don’t think you’re a pedophile for dating a 24 year old but I do think you’re kind of a lame as hell manbaby who can’t handle mature baddies and it makes me chuckle pointing it out

Another small drawering, this one a discord doodle request for @jellydishes of Morrigan with braided hair. I ended up sticking with this expression because I just thing it might apply 🥺

I was lying in the leaf litter today when some moss spoke to me. "Excuse me, do you know the species of this fallen log beneath me?" asked the moss. "Hmm. No. Sorry, I'm a little fuzzy on logs," I said. "What a coincidence," said the moss. "I'm a little fuzzy on logs too."

love when a mother asks if they have ever done anything to hurt you. ma'am, you will literally never be ready to have this conversation

what therapy do you think we can afford. what truths do you think you can survive

everyone clearly has a super normal relationship with their mother

the place I work at remodeled these split gendered restrooms into “inclusive restrooms” and never told us what they meant while construction was ongoing. I need you to know every atom of potential criticism or whining that could’ve happened disappeared when people found out this meant we got 10 fully separate private bathrooms with sinks inside. I’ve not heard a single person crack a joke about the inclusive signage. this is the world TERFs are trying to steal from you

I wish I could have heard you sing this… I bet you have a beautiful voice
