Bring the pain. No fear, now that I know the way. The power of the things that make me, “me.” Even if I fall, I come right up.

They ain’t lie 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

[revolutionarykoolaid]

Black artists literally engineered the techniques and basic song structure of electronic music, not to mention some of the very hardware/tech. You wouldn’t have dub without reggae, nor electro without Detroit and Chicago House. Artist like Skrillex, Diplo, and Calvin Harris are only popular because of how they mimic and “remix” traditionally Black genres and styles for white audiences. The erasure is ridiculous.

Why don’t you cherish your own life at all?

The racist practice of mispronouncing names

[profeminist]

Hasan Minhaj’s segment on the Ellen DeGeneres Show is a powerful teaching moment

“My biggest pet peeve is when people don’t take the time to learn how to pronounce other people’s names, which is why I appreciated a recent segment on the Ellen DeGeneres Show from comedian Hasan Minhaj.

Just a few seconds in, DeGeneres mispronounces his name, and Minhaj corrects her — making the audience laugh along the way. The moment teaches viewers why it’s so important to spend the time and effort to avoid mispronunciations.

“If you can pronounce Ansel Elgort, you can pronounce Hasan Minhaj,” he says.

Later on, he jokes that he uses the name Timothée Chalamet for his Starbucks orders.”

The other day a man came to install my internet in my new house and he told me about his wife. He said her name fast and then said “she usually goes by Mia though” and I thought about this post and wondered if the reason she went by Mia was because of the pronunciation thing. He said people thought his wife’s name was difficult. I asked him to repeat it literally one time, and then I said it. It wasn’t difficult. And then I got mad that I was right, because people shouldn’t have to change their names for the sake of others. I told him “people just need to try harder,” and his face lit up and he said “exactly!” And I think it made his day. This post genuinely helped me in real life make a positive change. A little effort goes a long way

MAGIC TRICKS ARE SIMPLY SLEIGHT OF HAND, USING REDIRECTION TO TAKE YOUR FOCUS OFF THE THING THEYRE MANIPULATING. THAT IS NOT THIS. IT SEEMS LIKE IT AT FIRST BUT THEN HE STARTS DOING THIS SHIT IN PLAIN SIGHT, AND LETTING US ACTUALLY SEE THE SHIT TRANSFORMING AND CHANGING PLACES. THIS ISN’T SLEIGHT OF HAND.

“Oh, I think I see the moments there where the actual transfer is happening, but he’s really good at it,” I thought at first. 

Promptly followed by, “Wait what the fuck what the FUCK”

So the last time I reblogged this, someone reblogged from me with a comment along the lines of “wait till you see them with swords”. So I went to search it up, and… guys. GUYS.

Audrey says “fuck your gender roles”

[there-was-a-girl]

This movie is super underrated.

[sailinginthetea]

Audrey is so underrated. How can you not love her?

[intersectionalfeminism]

I have a love-hate relationship with this movie. On one hand it’s got awesome PoC characters who defy racial and gender stereotypes. It also discusses colonialism and how people tend to destroy indigenous cultures to obtain land and resources (which is why the crew ultimately decided a to pretend they never found Atlantis because they don’t want anyone else to try and destroy the culture). But on the other hand, the whole plot is that Atlantis needs a white, cishet man to save it from extinction and for some reason he understand their culture and language better than they do.

[sun-spiral-deactivated20210109]

hEY FUCK YOU OKAY MILO WAS THE ANTITHESIS OF WHITE SAVIOR HE WAS A NERDY USELESS LITTLE SHIT WHO WAS COWARDLY UNTIL OTHERS FORCED HIM TO ACT HIS ONLY STRENGTHS WERE HIS MIND AND HIS ETHICS HE WAS THE PERFECT DUDE FOR THE JOB AND THE REASON HE KNEW BETTER WAS BECAUSE HE RIGOROUSLY STUDIED TEXTS THAT HAD BEEN LOST OR DESTROYED IN ATLANTIS BECAUSE KIDA’S FATHER INTENTIONALLY LET HIS KINGDOM LAPSE INTO DECAY AND OBSCURITY DO NOT PULL THAT WHITE SAVIOUR BULLSHIT BECAUSE MILO WAS A DAMN GOOD DUDE

[waltdisneyconfessionsrage]

I’ve been trying to tell people this for years. Also, what differentiates Milo’s experience from the white savior complex is his expectation and his attitude. When looking for Atlantis, the last thing Milo expects to find are people. He says the most they thought that they would find are carvings and pottery. And he would have been happy with just that.

And even when he finds the Atlanteans, he treats the culture and people with the utmost respect (peek the scene where the crew has their audience with the king). He never tries to interfere in the people’s way of life nor change them. He’s merely an observer fascinated with the culture/people and just wants to know more about them.

In most movies, the white savior comes into the situation with an attitude of superiority and only through his interactions with the native people (and a lot of times a beautiful native woman) is he humbled and then eventually brought in as an honorary member of the people. Milo never asks for thanks or wants to make a name for himself. He does what he does because he loves it and it’s a way to keep his grandfather’s legacy alive.

Yeah. Milo was a damn good dude.

[vanyel-or-just-van]

And another thing about Milo that’s made evidenced by this scene in particular? He’s got respect for women. He doesn’t ask why it’s a GIRL mechanic on the expedition, only why it’s a TEENAGER. Doesn’t question Kida’s leadership and knowledge when he meets her. (I can’t think of more examples off the top of my head but I’m sure they’re there).

Milo is a wonderful Disney protagonist, and this movie deserves the underground love it receives.
