Idk if I’ve said this on here but I have celiac disease and I hate when I get a gluten free cake that looks like it has frosting all over but when I open the box there’s only a pitiful little dollop on the top. Get outta here with that. Why do you think I bought cake with frosting? To moisturize that dry chocolate cake. I am not in the business to be DECIEVED by your cake that merely looks like it has frosting on it. Diabolical. I yearn for the frosting.

Now that everyone is hating on J.K. Rowling again, I feel like my complaints are relevant again. So yeah. What the FUCK was up with Cho Chang??!?! Let’s Review:

Cho Chang is 1 of 3 Asian characters in the books. Seriously. There’s the Patil siblings and Cho. Rowling can shove all the representation now through Twitter that she wants, but let’s be real. Most likely she imagined Hogwarts as white with a total of maybe 5 students of color total. So let’s look at how Rowling saw fit to portray East Asians. Starting with the name.

Cho. Chang. I’m gonna take a wild guess and assume she was meant to be Chinese. Her name is LITERALLY TWO LAST NAMES. ONE OF WHICH ISN’T REALLY CHINESE. From what I can tell, Cho is a more common Korean last name. If Rowling was going for ‘accuracy’ then why not give Cho a name like Elizabeth, or Catherine if you want to keep the alliteration. Off to a great start here. Let’s take a look at her personality. What do we know about her? She’s vaguely popular, Harry finds her pretty, she’s sad most of the time because of Cedric’s death, and she’s a ravenclaw. I’d like bring the patil twibs back up again, because of one of them is also a ravenclaw. 2/3 of the named Asian characters are in the smart house. I’m just gonna leave that there. Obviously, having smart Asian characters isn’t a problem. I’m Chinese, and I was insanely proud of being a ravenclaw when I was 12. However. When you have 3 Asian characters total, and none of them are given an actual personality, maybe don’t put 2 of them in the ‘smart house’. I’m aware Cho Chang isn’t the most insensitive thing Rowling has ever written, but I think it’s telling that this is how she thinks she should write her singular East Asian character. A nonsensical name combined with the personality of sad and smart.

Guess who’s gonna cry herself to sleep since there’s not a theater near her that’s playing the singalong version of Bohemian Rhapsody?

Can’t believe it’s fucking May already. Like on the one hand I’m so ready for this school year to end so I can have at least like. A week of chilling before another month of hell, then some more chilling. I just. Don’t want to go through all the bullshit that happens before I can be done with school this year. And then the next school year I have deal with pressure and stress with applying to universities and I just really don’t wanna fucking deal.

I’m all for recognizing people with ADHD, but let’s not forget people with ADD. My brother has ADHD while I have ADD, so we are alike, but different at the same time.

I just see others post about ADHD minds that I relate to and I’ve noticed that people really don’t mention ADD.

Just finished the Lovely Complex manga. Bro…

I liked the anime a lot but I feel like the manga (at least from chapter 30 til the end) was pure rage bait. I was so annoyed with the characters all the time🫩 and I was sad to see that there was way more focus on side characters rather than Risa and Otani like I was expecting. I had a really hard time caring for the side characters in this series.💔 I love Risa and Otani’s dynamic and I wish I could’ve seen them together more, I especially wanted to see them become more comfortable with one another as a couple. (Mainly Otani) but I didn’t see that happen which was disappointing. Oh well🥲

Jodi: You think your life is hard? I’m a high school junior wearing size 13 Nikes. Men’s size 13 Nikes! Beat that.

Me:

Me: I’m a non-white person, getting berated for my slightly shorter-than-normal height, being looked down on for not being traditionally attractive, scared of coming out because a lot of people I know are homophobes, upset that people keep spreading rumors about my family, confused cause my so-called friends keep talking about me behind my back & in front of it, and I can’t even talk to anyone about me maybe being genderfluid, because I don’t want to be asked about it. (Someone I knew came out as transgender, and one of my ‘friends’ pretty much just invalidated them.)

Me: I’m sure you must have it SO. MUCH. HARDER. than the rest of us do.

[Note: No hate to the actress or anything, just think that Netflix could have done a better movie. I mean, being tall has it’s problems, and I’m not saying you shouldn’t do a movie about tall girls. But if you do, at least make it good. Bring up valid points. And don’t make it all about how a girl can’t get a boyfriend just cause she’s tall. At least 4 of the guys liked her, and some tall girls aren’t even attracted to men. They could be lesbian, asexual, aromantic, etc.!]
