Big fan of the paranormal. I wish ghost hunting was a valid career path.

You can make a movie with where the only white character is a man named Ray Cism whose one line of his 16 seconds of screen time is “I seriously hate women and minorities.” and you’ll find fifty bajillion reader x Ray Cism fanfics and renaissance style drawings of him with a halo of golden light

Here’s something I found in a document titled “Have You Ever?” which based on the date I wrote while bedridden with Covid?? Doesn’t seem right, but ok. As with before, it is unfinished, and might be finished someday, but it also might not.

Here we go:

“Have you ever kissed a woman?”

It takes every last bit of decorum stored in Maura’s body to not spit out the bite of Pad See Ew she’s just deposited in her mouth. She doesn’t, but now she’s struggling to choke this hard lump of food down her throat, having hastily swallowed after way too few chews. She drops her fork back into the compostable takeout container as she coughs twice.

“Pardon me?” she asks, voice hoarse, and watches as Jane casually skewers a shrimp from her own container of Pad Thai.

“Sorry, is that a bridge too far?” Jane lofts one eyebrow. “You’ve given me pretty explicit play-by-plays of your sexual encounters with men, so I thought perhaps this was, y’know, well within the bounds of our friendship.” She pulls the shrimp off her fork with her teeth.

“It just surprised me, that’s all.” Maura tries not to get too defensive. “We’d been talking about work so it was a little out of the blue.”

“Fair enough.” Jane twirls her fork in her rice noodles, gathering another bite. “It’s just that I got called a lesbian at work—again—so it’s kind of been on my mind.”

“Lesbianism has been on your mind?”

“How about you answer my question first, hm?” Jane takes another bite of her food, watching Maura expectantly.

Maura wets her lips, her brain cycling through some relevant memories: being pressed back against the wall in a hallway at her boarding school, one particularly flirty lab partner at BCU, a dashing older woman at a forensic conference she’d attended in New Mexico. She’d done a lot more than kiss some of them.

“Yes, I have.”

“How does it stack up?” Jane says. “Like, compared to men, I mean.”

Jane has almost no reaction to this revelation about Maura, which is a little disappointing. This fact about Maura’s romantic history has always felt like a big, important secret that Maura has been keeping and Jane being so exceptionally casual in response makes it feel like she always knew.

“I mean, every person I’ve kissed has felt quite different, Jane.” Maura tries not to let her exasperation show. “I don’t know that there’s a clear line between the men and the women.”

“Yeah?” Jane chews thoughtfully. “I feel like every guy I’ve kissed has felt exactly the same.”

“Oh.” Maura’s pretty sure that Jane doesn’t mean that in a good way. “I guess… I mean, obviously, there are—broadly speaking—some physiological differences,” Maura says. “The women I’ve kissed have been softer, on average. Less stubble.”

“That’s it?” Jane frowns. “No difference in approach?”

“Jane, you know I really hate to generalize.”

“Humour me.”

Maura sighs. “Fine. I guess, in my experience, women have been more likely to treat kissing as an end in itself rather than a means to something else.”

Jane stares at Maura in that way that she does, where Maura is pretty sure Jane knows exactly what Maura means but she’s demanding Maura dumb it down anyway, like some kind of blue collar reparation. Maura sighs and relents, as usual.

“They kiss like it’s the main event, not just a concession to get sex.”

“Hm,” Jane says, infuriatingly inscrutable. “That does sound nice.”

“What, um…” Though Maura yearns for more information, she realizes that she doesn’t know how to ask for what she really wants know. “Is that…helpful?”

“Maybe.” Jane shrugs. “I just keep getting called gay, so I figure maybe I should just go out and kiss a woman and see if there’s any truth to it.”

“I don’t think that’s how it works, Jane,” Maura says. “You can’t just go out and kiss any woman and judge based on that. You need to be attracted to someone for a kiss to be any good.”

“Oh wow, is that how it works?” Jane gives her an incredulous look. “Jesus, Maura. You think I’m talking about just walking up to some random woman, tapping her on the shoulder, and laying one on her?”

Hello! I was thinking about something. In every one of those shows that have way too many seasons, if there is a Black character that dies or moves or anything, they are always replaced by another Black character (this is usually true for any non-white character). So I started thinking about what this might convey to the audience. Ofc that if all of the Black characters where replaced by white or non-Black characters in general, that would suck, but why can't a white character ever be replaced by a non-white one?

And that can show that there is a certain "needed" number of Black characters for it to be "not racist but still consumable for white audiences" and look like the people in the writing room are just putting a Black character to say there is one (tokenization and all that).

So I kept thinking and thinking and the answer I got was the same for almost everything: evaluate the context, intention and what that implies. But I do think that most of the media that does that, falls into the tokenization thing. Because the standard for those shows is: two Black characters in the main cast at max. Usually a man and a woman. And the woman is always "strong, angry and strict" while the man is either "funny, childish and cool" or "strong, angry and strict" 😭😭😭

So I wanted to know what do you think about that! Sorry if any of this is rubbish or worded badly, I started doing excercises about "why do I think the way I think?" and I'm trying to learn and do better.

☕ Mr. CBC: 🤔 I'm really thinking what shows do this. I can't remember any that I've watched personally. Maybe Invincible? With Dark Wing? But that doesn't have too many seasons and OG Dark Wing... Well we know what happened. But to answer your question, Black people are considered replaceable by white viewers and creators. I probably wouldn't be exaggerating when I say: EVERY Black person, who has been around white people, has been mistakenly identified as another Black person in that same space. WE as REAL LIFE PEOPLE aren't even seen as important enough to remember. Why would that be different for side characters on a show?

As for the white characters, if you replace them, the white audience would lose their shit. We all know how bad and annoying that is for everyone else 🙄☕
