i ultimately don't think the way japanese media treats women is all that different from how western media treats women, it's just not christian about it

[pocket-deer-belly]

in a lot of ways it's generally more openly sexual and less judgemental of sexuality, at least within the context of fiction. i think it tends to rub up against western christian ideas in a way that makes white people get a little scared. other than that almost every present issue of misogyny is just as pronounced in western, especially american media.

a lot of shounen anime treats women badly, unlike american action films, which has historically been hyperfeminist i'm sure :)

Take a look at these African peach moths (Egybolis vaillantina). The shades of blue on their wings are so striking against the bright hues and dark edgings. Living art, right?

Solange launches Saint Heron digital archive library

Solange Knowles’ Saint Heron Library digitizes rare and out-of-print works by Black and brown artists, preserving them for future generation

"The Saint Heron Library is home to our archival collection of primarily rare, out of print, and 1st edition titles by Black & brown authors, poets, & artists," she captioned on Instagram.

Throughout time, when certain aspects of physical media aren't accessible, a digital archive library is crucial in a society driven by fast-paced media consumption, where the depth and nuance of marginalized voices can easily be overlooked or forgotten.

...

In our digital age, where much of our interaction with media is limited to clicks and reposts, Knowles’ digital archive provides a safe space for scholarly and artistic work that might otherwise be lost. Saint Heron’s library aims to foster a space where the wisdom and creativity of these “great minds” can thrive, supported by an infrastructure that champions preservation and accessibility. The library will not only serve as a place of significant works but also act as a catalyst for more conversations around artists, scholars and enthusiasts. "As the market and demand for these books, zines, and catalogues rises, we would like to play a small part in creating free access to the expansive range of critical thought and expression by these great mindsss," Knowles said.
