See, in many modern animes, you’d probably get the protagonist to say something like, “Wha-WHAAAT? Uh, b-but we’re both girls! Shouldn’t you be giving this to a boy or something?”
I really like how Usagi handles it. She’s not undermining the girl’s feelings and she’s taking her seriously. And while she doesn’t reciprocate, she offers her friendship instead of just brushing the girl off and going “ew, gay weirdo!” Sailor Moon really did empower women and sexuality, and this is one of the many scenes that showcases that.
If you have pets, please exercise caution when getting plants and make sure they aren’t toxic to them. Peace Lilies, for example, are highly toxic to cats. English Ivy is toxic to them, too.
If you want kids to stay in school, make sure school provides the necessary accommodations for disabled people, make sure no one is bullied at school, and make sure no one has to quit school to work because they’re poor.
Remember when Disney was all like ‘fuck how races work and homogeneous casts and couples’?
Black and white couple produce fillipino-american child. White dude is the valet. White step mother, one white step sister, one black step sister. Just a jumble, and it ought to happen again.
Some facts from imdb:
First multi-racial cast performing Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella.
Whitney Houston was producing Rodger and Hammerstein’s “Cinderella” and was to star in it until she decided that Brandy Norwood would make a better Cinderella. Brandy would not do it unless her idol Whitney took the Fairy Godmother role.
Brandy Norwood became the first African-American to play Cinderella. This version broke viewer-ship records when it debuted, and it holds the record for the bestselling video for a made for TV movie.
So fuck any noise where people say audience don’t want to see a mixed race couple, or more people of color. This was a success from television. I still remember Brandy singing Impossible.
That ought to happen again. Mixed race live action cast where the relationships don’t made genetic or racial sense.
Update: In a new interview with Vulture, Constance Wu keeps the fight for Asian American actors alive. Specifically the struggle she has with white studio executives now who get defensive when she brings up whitewashing:
She understands why they’re defensive but more importantly, where Asian erasure comes from.
What the fuck. It’s just a fucking pair if shoes. He bopped the damn shoes. Why they throwin fists over a fuckin boop. Maybe tell them to back the hell up and not try it again, but what the fuck.
True but if I worked hard to make my money to buy myself a pair of shoes and your dumbass comes along and steps on them as a “joke” you gotdamn right I’m gonna be pissed about it.
“Maybe tell them to back the hell up and not try it again”
They purposely stepped on their shoes. Mind you, Jordans are not cheap. People take pride in what they wear. But ultimately it’s a matter of respect. These white kids are disrespectful.
These “_______ in the hood” videos are made to provoke black people into acting out for cheap laughs and youtube views. It gives white america a reason to laugh at us and call us animals. They make these videos to make us as a people look bad.
This is what priveledge does to you. Its sickening. This is the Visual equivalent of black face. You’re making fun of aspects of black culture that you’re too priveldged to understand.
Let me put this in white people terms: This is like going around a gated Community scratching people’s Mercedes-Benz, and then saying “chill its just a car”.

"It started when a Muslim man and a Buddhist women started to argue!"
Islam Week!
Global media is inundated with stories of Muslims being the perpetrators of terrorist violence. But there isn’t the same coverage of how Muslims are the victims of violence—as in the case with, say, US-led invasions and airstrikes, or the anti-Muslim violence in Myanmar/Burma:
Communal tensions are flaring in Myanmar, after 200 Buddhists ransacked a mosque in central Myanmar [on 30 June 2016], forcing Muslims to seek refuge overnight in a police station.
The incident was triggered after a dispute between neighbours spilled into religious violence, officials and residents said on Friday.
Bouts of anti-Muslim violence have left scores dead across the country since 2012 and the febrile atmosphere poses serious challenges for Aung San Suu Kyi’s new government.
The violence erupted on Thursday afternoon as a mob of around 200 Buddhists rampaged through a Muslim area of Thuye Tha Mein village in Bago province following an argument between neighbours over the building of a Muslim school.
“It started when a Muslim man and a Buddhist women started to argue and then people came to fight him,” Hla Tint, the village administrator, told AFP. “Parts of the mosque were destroyed… they also destroyed the fence of the Muslim cemetery,” he added.
Around 70 Muslims, including children, sought shelter in a police station overnight on Thursday, he said, adding there were no serious injuries and peace had been restored. Police and the secretary of the mosque confirmed the damage, while a Muslim resident told AFP his community of around 150 people is now living in fear.
“We had to hide as some people were threatening to kill Muslims. The situation has never been like this before,” Tin Shwe OO, 29, told AFP, adding his family stayed at the small police station overnight.
I’ve previously blogged about one of the instigators of Buddhist terrorism in Myanmar, the monk Ashin Wirathu.
And by the way, Nobel Prize-winner Aung San Suu Kyi patently does not care about the issue. Your fave isn’t just problematic; she’s actually tolerant of ethnic cleansing.
