i love girls with no ‘maternal warmth’. girls who are affectionate in awkward ways. girls who are not ‘caregivers’ so much as care needers. girls who mean well but come across as assholes. girls who don’t mean well. girls who cry a lot but it isn’t ‘cute’ it’s just annoying. girls who aren’t always the most beautiful one in the room. girls who are obnoxious. girls who kind of suck but u can’t help but love them bc they really are just trying,
mitski is one of my favorite artists of all time but i cannot STAND what white tumblr users did to her.
she writes music about her experiences as a japanese-american and how that coincides with her experiences in love, lust, heartbreak, longing, ect, but everyone came on here and went “OMG FERAL WOMAN SINGS ABOUT LONGING HEHE”, totally stripping the songs of her raw experiences just so it can appeal and relate to them more
and can i just say? weird as fuck for white people to call an asian woman feral for having feelings, especially considering how eager so many people are to infantilize east asian women for their stupid anime kpop aesthetics. i will not forgive yall for that. just leave mitski alone please
I’m no longer going to offer explanations for these, I’m just going to post them at random times because making them brings me joy. Expect more in the future.
magical girls is such a good genre, like it’s so positive and hopeful and tells girls that their wishes and friendships are powerful and world-changing
everytime I remember that lesbian couple that have a marble statue of the two of them embracing and sleeping on a bed together over where their graves will be because the artists didn’t believe they would be able to be married before they died, so what they couldn’t have in life they could have in death, I fucking breakdown
i know how magical girl animes are kind of lesbian culture and so many of us feel extremely attached to so many of them, so i decided to make these edits for all the magical lesbians out there! we’re magical girls too! ♡
