tagging that post with only zendaya when that person made it clear that there are also white people doing the same thing. i know what you are.
huh??? lmao someone too lazy to tag the other ppl you mean?
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.

god I'm such a slut for Chinese eggplant in garlic sauce *decides it’s inaccurate to refer to myself as a slut in light of my minimal sexual activity* if The Enemy discovered my ardor for Chinese eggplant in garlic sauce, they would gain a significant strategic advantage
watching norway vs england. camera zoomed in on some england fan in the crowd wearing a shirt that was like a pic of the england 1966 captain crouching w the trophy next to a pic of Harry Kane crouching with this year’s trophy and the numbers 1966 and 2026 above their respective heads. soooo embarrassing if they lose and that shirt is just a forever reminder lmaoooooo
hahahahahahahaha
For the ask game, 1, 2 and 26 💖
1. what's your favourite kitchen appliance?
Probably the kettle! It’s my most used one, and I got a new one last year, so it’s all sleek and doesn’t smell lol. Also while the kettle is boiling I sometimes try and wash a few dishes or do things before the boil is finished, so i feel like the kettle is helping me :)
2. do you have a collection of anything?
Hmmm not anymore, really. I did used to collect VHS tapes for a while, but then I gave those away. If i’m being 100% honest, i now have amassed a collection of felix’s whiskers which idk if i’ll get rid of or not
26. do you make a list before going to the grocery store or just wing it?
Always make a list! If I’m getting one or two things after work or something, then i might not write it down, but 99% of the time, I need to put it in my notes app or i’ll forget! Also i love making lists, so it’s great all round
I fucking hate James Tissot’s paintings because in ALL OF THEM there is ALWAYS someone staring right at you, but it’s not always immediately visible. You just feel watched by this mf. Sometimes the little shit is right there at the centre, but others the bastard is just gazing from the distance, it is CREEPY, my guys
STOP STARING AT ME, THIS IS DISCONCERTING AS FUCK
I think this is hilarious. We’ve been caught.
In James Tissot paintings, art observes you.
I love this actually it really brings you into the scene. It denies you the psychological position of outside observer and makes you feel as if you were almost there.
Always reblog James Tissot
I keep thinking this! very frustrating
