'Life could be a dream sh-boom! That’s what happened to me. When I used to open the show for people, you know, stars in the early and mid-60s, I used to go, "Wow, this is so exotic. It’s just amazing." When those big old stage lights came on in the proscenium arch theater, my whole heart leapt. I couldn’t wait to get to the next place to see somebody else do the same thing. And so I didn’t study anything, except for trying to be as good as Terry Reid, or Steve Marriott, or Steve Winwood, or so many people who are extraordinary singers.'

— Robert Plant interviewed by Billboard (19 Dec, 2022)

you don’t realize how important lunch is until you’re wandering around thinking about how unloveable and untalented and uniquely cursed you are and then it’s 4pm and you finally eat lunch and you go Oh. oh right.

80's KTZO-TV/KOFY-TV San Francisco, California Cat Commercials Part 2

There are gonna be people who won't like hearing this but if you want to live in a world where mixed marriages, families, and adoptions (particularly POC adopting outside their "race") aren't maligned and discriminated against, then you have got to get more chill about seeing someone partaking in something cultural that you don't think fits the "race" you perceive them as.

It's a vague memory now, it was a vague memory even at the time I made this post, but I think what sparked this was remembering stupid comments I saw about a Chinese-American cookbook that were complaining about it being written by a white woman and then I looked the white woman up and the briefest research showed she was adopted as a child into a Chinese-American family and just....

*pinches nose*

Fellas, is it cultural appropriation to inherit your family's culture but you don't pass the blood quantum test?

All of you are literally just racist. You've come full-circle. You're working under the belief that people are supposed to "keep to their own kind" and that means the socially invented concept of "race", and "race mixing" of any sort is unnatural.

Putting this in a separate reblog because it involves fictional media but it was still implying a messed up worldview....

This reminded me of a post I saw about someone theorizing what MCU Morgan Stark's middle name was because we just knew her middle initial was "H" and they considered that the namesake might be Yinsen Ho but they didn't want to believe that because it would be, quote, "cultural appropriation".

Cultural appropriation. To name your child after someone you personally knew and was very important to you.

Don't you know it's unnatural for someone of a different race to be important to you? The races are not supposed to mix!

It's literally just racism. Why do people think they're being anti-racist activists by being some of the highest level of racist?

smegorl

Yeah this trend has been gaining strength for years of "the races shouldn't mix (but in a Marx honoring way)" and it's seriously fuckin concerning.

Cultural appropriation is stealing something from another culture that they're not happy to share and then passing it off as your own (and generally benefiting from it in a way that diverts those benefits away from the source culture).

Cultural appropriation is NOT enjoying things from other cultures that they're happy to share, it's NOT mutual cultural exchange between friends, and it's DEFINITELY NOT inheriting your own culture no matter what you look like you absolutely fuckwaffles

fox with the northern lights in Finland. 2026.

“In Finnish folklore, the northern lights are created when a mythical fox races across the Arctic tundra, its tail sweeping snow into the sky and setting it ablaze. Those glowing sparks, the story goes, become auroras — a legend reflected in the Finnish word revontulet, which literally translates to ‘fox fires.’”
