I anticipate the biggest problems with my "not reading any white authors in 2026" thing I'm doing will be 1) the fact that I just watched Wicked For Good making me want to revisit the books 2) season 3 of IWTV will undoubtedly do the same 3) Supergirl (2026) will undoubtedly make me want to read more of her books

[read-alert]

Good news! 1) my fixation on Wicked has long since faded. While I do still want to revisit the books at some point, it's no longer a pressing desire. 2) I do not like the new season of Interview with the Vampire and am no longer even watching the show, much less having any desire to return to Anne Rice

Bad new: I saw Supergirl last night and ohhhhhh, I want to see my giiiirrrrrrrrrllllllllll again. If any of you know of any of her books, or even books where she's not the title character but has a significant presence written by writers of color, please let me know (I do already know about and have read Supergirl: Being Super by Mariko Tamaki et al)

[read-alert]

Based off the posts I'm seeing, it sounds like I made the right decision about the vampires. Would still love Supergirl recs if anybody's got them though

It's such an amazing feeling when someone picks up on something in your writing that you 100% intended but didn't think people would notice. Like, YES!! My writing properly conveyed the thing it was supposed to!!! You are so awesome for noticing that!!! I am so awesome for writing that!!! I feel so good about my story now!!!!

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.

Reasons to boycott Nolan's The Odyssey (that I know of so far):

They shot in the illegally occupied Western Sahara as reported by Middle East Eye (thanks to @fuckyeahdavidandyonatan for bringing that up)

They dumped their props into a protected area of the Italian sea after shooting (thanks to @godslop for finding the article in English)

Zendaya wearing looted 3000 years old Iranian earrings for the premiere of the movie + having her stylist fly on a private jet just to get her a dress for the premiere in London

No Greek actors in a movie about Greek heritage

While people mentioned that Anne Hathaway was flown in to the set every day, apparently it was not on a private jet but on a helicopter that was being used anyway to fly in equipment.

None of these things are new in Hollywood or exclusive to the Odyssey, its director or its actors, but I do think we as audience should start holding Hollywood accountable when it disrespects our culture, heritage, environment, especially when it's movies that are this big and have a huge budged that would allow for more conscious choices.

Please do add anything else I missed.

I write these words with a broken heart. To those who read this and choose to ignore it, you can simply scroll past, but I am living through the most difficult moments of my life. My husband is slowly dying before my eyes. Due to a severe head and jaw injury, he has been unable to eat or drink for over a week, his weight has dropped to just 39 kilograms, and he is suffering from severe, life-threatening malnutrition.

[qamar2026]

The doctors confirmed he needs urgent surgery, but we can't afford the operation and treatment. I feel helpless watching him weaken day by day, while time is running out.💔

MAKI MINAMI from MAGICAL TRANS! / MAJITORA!

JUSTIFICATION:

"Minami is the protag of the genderbending magical girl manga 'Magical Trans!', which is probably the most eggy thing I've ever read. Premise is that Minami joins a high school magical girl club that actually transforms into magical girls, which means genderbending into the magical girl Karii Maki for her, and she LOVES it. She transforms into Karii on a daily basis and usually not at all for magical girl reasons, but to try on dresses, go out in public as a girl, or sleep as a girl; claims, and I quote, "transforming makes my appitite better, sleep better, relieves stress, and helps with muscle and joint pain". There is a chapter where her friend is worried Minami's forgetting 'himself' and gets the transformation shut down and Minami becomes so wildly depressed the friend realizes she was being selfish, feels guilty and turns the transformation back on, after which Minami immediately returns to being cheerful. There's a moment where Minami sneaks into her mother's room to try out make-up, only to call up her friend crying because she doesn't know how to put it on properly. There's a chapter where she crossdresses while untransformed and gets wildly depressed at how she looks until she figures out how to make herself look more feminine. She looks at herself transformed in the mirror wearing the girls' uniform and thinks 'Is this heaven? Wow, this uniform... I look like a real girl, don't I?' and is SO happy walking through school in that uniform as a girl. I literally cannot sum up all the points in which she acts, talks and thinks like a tgirl we'd be here all day. And yet she's supposedly a guy. Ok. Anyway transition would save her." - Anonymous

there's no satisfaction in being right about the boat sinking when you are also on the boat, never mind below decks, with no hope of a rescue. I don't like smugly saying I Told You So because despite being ardent and vocal and pushing for strategies to mitigate climate change, my people are still dying. Black and Indigenous people in the United States and Canada are nearly always right when it comes to how we navigate disasters collectively, and they're never listened to except for after the fact (usually when its too late!! Huh! Wonder why that is!)

Folks want a quote from a Black or Indigenous person for their blog, but they don't wanna change their environments or GOD FORBID their consumer habits, even as the oceans rise to your door and the wildfires and logging bring down every old-growth forest.

(the history you cut out and paste into your cutesy little Revolutionary Scrapbook is still happening and still being made, btw. Your actions are part of it.)

anyway. I'm sitting here under a pungent yellow sky and aching for my people and the forests of Ontario. The Namaygoosisagagun First Nation (Collins First Nation, for the colonizers) fled on boats while the trees next to their houses burned. Thunder Bay is full of displaced Indigenous peoples trying to breathe with air full of ash. Gayaashki-zaagiing Anishinaabeg (Gull Bay First Nation, again, for You Folks) peoples were ordered to evacuate in the middle of the night and were just told there are no accommodations for them, now that they've escaped. Thousands of people scrambling for protection and safety, while a bunch of white colonizers complain about the smell of smoke.

None of this is new. It's all a very old song.

But, as my mother would say, the drums will get louder and louder until you listen.
