VAL — 24 — BLACK — NON SELFSHIP BLOG — MAIN

I’m really just using this blog to reblog stuff that I like and whatnot. I also love The Boondocks.

unironically I will block you for saying “my Shayla” about your blorbo. The meme came from people mocking a Black man for crying for his daughter. When you say that about a sketch of Skinny White Dude #27 you are treating Black pain as a joke. I want to assume most people don’t know the context and wouldn’t use it if they did but too many of yall straight up do not care and would keep using it anyways

either way now you do know, so you can either be better or shut the fuck up

nobody ever talks about how selfless it is to choose, over and over again, to not commit suicide. nobody ever acknowledges the tremendous sacrifice suicidal people make every time we choose not to kill ourselves. when a person who is suffering so horribly that death seems like their best option decides not to take their one way out, and to instead remain in hell, day after day, year after year, because they don’t want to hurt the people they love, they are doing something extraordinary. not killing yourself when it’s all you want to do is the purest act of love i can imagine. dying for someone is easy – you don’t have to deal with any of the consequences, you have your moment of nobility and then it’s all over. but living for someone, when the simple fact of consciousness is literal torture for you? every single suicidal person who ever made a choice to not kill themselves in a moment of misery is a goddamn hero in my eyes. wanting to die and still surviving is an act of titanic courage and self-sacrifice. we deserve more credit for it.

for the love of everything pure + everything evil. remember Asian people exist & care about us. & not just your pale, submissive, fetishized East Asians. Asia includes Southeast, West, Central, North, & South Asians like people in Vietnam, Siberia, Pakistan, Palestine, Turkmenistan etc etc.

you people keep treating Asians as either invisible or the closest thing to white. trust me, I wish I had the safety & the privilege of a white person instead of being fetishized + objectified, stereotyped, & having unrealistic expectations held over my head as part of the model minority myth shit /general "you"

literally everywhere I turn there is a lack of respect for Asian people. even Asian anime characters almost always pass for white, people mock our food, accuse us of stealing jobs, & then OTHER PEOPLE OF COLOR assume we don't struggle like them I don't know anymore. I'm really tired

fear not: you can also “attack” your friends even outside of art fight, so if you miss the chance to before august 2nd you can always get them after with no repercussions. No crime will be committed either way and its actually fine to draw art for others at any other time of the year

The concept of white people gentrifying the abbreviation of "ts" which originally meant "type shit" that turned into "this shit" and then just to "this" is absolutely baffling to me because why would you ever need to abbreviate a four letter word?

Can we stop referring to the hakenkreuz as a swastika?

A swastika is a cultural and religious symbol. The hakenkreuz or "hooked cross" is the nazi symbol. It's quite orientalist to keep calling the hakenkreuz a swastika. Let's at least try to change our language about the different symbols.

Differences between the two symbols in images under the cut.

Happy Emancipation Day! August 1st in most of the Commonwealth. Some countries celebrate it on the first Monday/Tuesday.

It's celebrated all over the Caribbean and sometimes in different names, but it should be more well known!!

🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Happy Emancipation Day to my Afro-Caribbean cousins!!!

Emancipation Day marks the anniversary of the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833. This is the day of freedom for formerly enslaved people in British colonies in the Americas, including Canada, Jamaica, Belize, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana and Barbados.

[ID: text: “Emancipation Day is a way for people of African descent in the Caribbean to remind themselves that they too are the sons and daughters of Africa and their freedom came through sacrifice and struggle. It is also a means to celebrate their culture and customs after 400 years of European colonization and slavery, forced to change their names, religions, beliefs, languages, and more.” There is also an image of a brown fist holding a broken chain. /end ID]

crazy concept. imagine

it makes me think of when i said hillary had slaves in the 1980s, like actual black slaves who were prisoners who had to serve her and her evil ass husband without pay in their mansion, providing free labor for cleaning cooking waiting on them yard work the list goes on, and if they did not comply they would be sent back to prison and risk solitary confinement, and when i said this hundreds of ppl were angry and saying i was attacking a wonderful pure democrat woman who “was fighting for my rights” as a black person…. as if forcing imprisoned black people into slavery and threatening them with cruel retaliation isn’t indicative of who she is as a person

Stuff like this always makes me remember how sensationalized the “hide your kids, hide your wife” video was, also known as the “bedroom intruder meme” 🗿.

The guy was clearly one of the earliest memes of a black person expressing frustration publicly (it was a news report of the man explaining how he’d run off a predator trying to rape his sister by the way) but in a “funny way” (the way that nbs and whites find entertaining at least because they don’t see black trauma as something that should be given grace, and shown empathy right from the very start over their own intial enjoyment because that’s no fun), and something like this became a huge joke. Like, this meme was literally everywhere in the early 2000’s, and I think people forgot that his sister was almost raped 🧍🏾‍♀️…………………………..!

Forgot to mention just in case people start acting stupid oh this post if it randomly blows up (I’m not popular here so I might be free 🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀) but the bedroom intruder meme was turned into music, merch, the brother was even on tv shows, and tbh, I personally never cared if poor black folks decide to capitalize off of a meme that made them viral to change their situation. It’s better they get something out of it because whites and nbs are laughing anyway, while making their money off of black trauma. That’s how it always is with these memes. It’s awful.
