some Navya and Barsaat doodles and memes showing some brief snippets of their personality/dynamic. Yes, Barsaat is obsessed with his gal and we love that for both him and Navya

I saw the Odyssey and I have just some thoughts

First off, I really liked the movie but this is less of a review about the Odyssey 2026 and more of a where the fuck was Paris and Hector and Achilles

How the hell. Are you going to be including the whole destruction of Troy scene without fucking including Achilles. He wasn't in the movie at all, not even in the scene where Odysseus speaks with the dead. I am pissed, he's such a central part of that story and you don't include him? Ridiculous

Also why the fuck. Was Calypso a white woman. Why would you make her white and cast fucking Charlize Theron of all people wtf

[moodybites]

No, I don't think we should cancel Zendaya (that solves nothing and we are not doing the thing of extremely punishing a Black woman for something that white people get forgiven for all the fucking time) but I do think people, especially famous people from the West, need to be more fucking cognitive of how colonial powers treat other countries and their artifacts and how their actions contribute to it

[barbiehelmet]

the zendaya thing isnt even a new phenomenon by any means!! the article mentions margot robbie wearing the taj mahal diamond as well, and in addition to that i also want to remind people that diljit dosanjh's request to wear the patiala necklace for the 2025 met gala was denied by cartier because they said it was in a museum and could not be loaned. however they had no issues at all loaning it to emma chamberlain, a white woman, for the 2022 met gala, while they turned down the request of a punjabi man who wanted it to honor his heritage.

this behavior is nothing new. the global south and everything in it - the people, the culture, our heritage - is seen as nothing more than a decoration or commodity to colonizers. i don't even need to bring up the koh i noor or the entire british museum; these examples are recent and egregious enough on their own.

of course this is not to imply that any of the people involved here - zendaya, margot robbie, or emma chamberlain - had any sort of malicious intentions. but the ignorance is just as bad in my opinion. the ignorance is just as harmful, if not more. because it means we are not even an afterthought. it means that the real people and histories and heritages of the global south do not even register when these people are putting together looks for their movie premiers and met gala appearances. everything is just reduced down to a shiny piece of jewelry whose history they need not bother with. it's just a continued reminder of the way colonization affects us all even long after independence, of how barely-healed wounds keep being reopened even decades later. even now, we are being denied connections to our histories and heritages while they are freely being given out to those that have nothing to do with it and don't care for it. and i'm sick of it.

It still makes me laugh that Barsaat is my youngest main male love interest character when compared to everyone else

i lost my job, so i'm opening commissions for digital art and fursuit parts. fursuit parts are limited to handpaws and tails for now.

you can find more info on my ko-fi page. there are examples of my work, terms of service, and other details there ^^

idk i would personally rather give up access to certain products seasonally or locally than have people enslaved to give me the ability to have any product any place any time. i think i can go without tomatoes in january.

[kaylmao]

i truly do think that most people if confronted with it and pressed on it would agree. but it's comfortable to gain privileges from someone else's suffering, especially if you don't have to see that suffering directly.

[moodybites]

No one understands how much Barsaat hates Vikram. The moment he clocked Vikram's behaviour towards Navya, it immediately became a "hands on sight" situation for him

I wish…we lived in a world where back handing racists and homophobes was rewarded…cause some of you need violence not understanding in order to stop being pieces of shit
