human trash beings constantly failing a teenage girl (based on this post)

don't you think it's a bit weird to have a tag dedicated to telling an entire religion to shut up?

Christian is my name.... ‘christian shut up’ is my personal tag?

#Anon what did you think the Christian in my bio meant?#Asks

Also I feel a type a way about Bilal being so excited to party in Qing like... ofc so that he doesn’t have to lie or worry about stuntin on IG but contextually

If his mom is out of work because she had a restaurant that shut down because of COVID... it’s not that much of a reach to say that this Chinese restaurant also shut down because of COVID (and you have to also think sinophobia was part of that). So I have trouble believing Bilal wouldn’t have been even a little hesitant or affected by partying in an abandoned restaurant

But because the writers were totally not invested in exploring classism/capitalism and racism on any kind of level in Tiff’s season, we didn’t get even a hint of discomfort from Bilal in the background nor any indication from any of the gang that it’s actually not great that they’re partying in this shut-down restaurant during a pandemic (except for Lola, yk)

So it’s leaving me frustrated because that would’ve been another opportunity to explore Tiff’s privilege / provide more insight into Bilal. And I know it’s Skamfr so i shouldn’t expect anything, lol, but so many pieces were right there

today it was revealed that a white woman in brownface was amita suman’s stunt double in shadow and bone.

at a time when hollywood is preaching to stop aapi hate the show has shown us, twice so far, that they don’t care about our community. by having a south asian coded character make racist remarks towards an east asian coded character they added nothing to the plot or character development- all they did was try to create a divide between our communities. this hurt more especially because zoya was never racist in the books.

they condoned putting a stuntwoman in brownface because they couldn’t be bothered to find a desi stuntwoman for amita. there were are truly so many talented desi dancers and acrobats out there but shadow and bone refused to cast accurately because stuntwomen are supposed to show up in blurry or fast moving shots, making it “easier” to rely on brownface speaks volumes about how much they care about diversity.

for a show that has been praised for representation and diversity and was going to mean so much for asian viewers, shadow and bone failed to deliver time and time again, showing us that all we can count on when it comes to south asian representation in hollywood is constant disrespect and racism.

netflix and leigh bardugo along with the rest of the showrunners and writers marketed the show as being a diverse fantasy but were surrounded by a team that approved brownface should tell you all you need to know about how much they respected desi people in the first place. so many south asians were excited to finally see themselves onscreen in inej and zoya, especially as the show was praised by reviewers and writers as being diverse and accurate representation and this is what we got.

amita was so excited to play inej, a strong brown woman whose identity was not solely defined by her race and i can’t imagine how she felt watching a white woman paint herself brown so that she could perform stunts that amita had trained for as well. if anything, this proves that hollywood’s pushing of diversity on screen does nothing to help poc and representation unless that same diversity exists behind the camera.

@georgiaswarr put ‘potential breakup song’ on her ark playlist and i just…

[id: an in-colour digital drawing of jimmy. he is wearing a black t-shirt with a rip in it, black ripped jeans, a black leather jacket, and buckled platform black leather boots. he is shown on-stage with one leg propped up on a platform, his arm resting on his knee. he is bending forwards slightly, holding a microphone up to his mouth. he has dark smudgy eye makeup and is looking directly at the ‘camera’ as he sings, “you’re not livin’ ‘til you’re livin’, livin’ for me.” there is dry ice around his feet as well as orange stage lights. end id.]

It makes me so angry to think about the fact that there’s likely Americans celebrating 5 de mayo as Mexico City continues to go through the aftermath of the metro collapse. Fuck this.

#It's so odd that they celebrate 5 de mayo... who even makes parties for 5 de mayo?#Either way #Those people definitely are not aware of what's going on over here and could not give a smaller shit #Very angering indeed #Mexico #Latam #christian shut up

y’all want the remakes to improve on things the og has done badly unless it involves your fave having less screen time.

reblogging this again so im not misinterpreted. i’m not saying it’s not ok to miss your faves. i miss sander all the time but the thing is, missing them doesn’t mean they should be inserted in things that have nothing to do with them. i think the season feels a bit weird bc it’s missing way more important people than kato and aaron. we know this is bc the actors are busy with other things. however, this doesn’t mean i want to see robbe having the best bud storyline when LUCA IS RIGHT THERE. the chrises are so under-utilised and especially in this case when our chris is a woc, it would be fucking disgusting not to develop her and give important conversation to robbe who already had his time to shine (and a subplot this season. we know he will have one this season too). i didn’t like it in the og and i won’t like it now but i am literally just giving my opinion. i care about yasmina first, everyone else second.
