#black history every day

10 BL Characters I Want Carnally

AKA I'm just a person with two keen eyes and dubious morals when it comes to enjoying media so don't take it seriously, I'm here for a good time.

Thank you @sndrys for tagging me! This was an eye opening experience putting this together. As it turns out I might have a type (ew).

1) Guy from Bake Me Please (2023)

The sole reason for me creating this list! Look, I dropped Bake Me Please almost immediately because it just wasn't for me BUT I've been lowkey watching through my dash. And let me tell you, my fingers gain consciousness and hit reblog everytime this baby's face pops up because...well...LOOK AT HIM. He is beautiful and he should get the guy (hehe get it) in the end idc.

2) Yok from Not Me (2021)

Yok is such a beloved character and for good reason! He is sexy, he is gay, he sets buildings on fire and steals cops' wallets on accident because HOW WAS HE SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT GUY HE WAS STALKING WAS A COP??? I love you Yok, never change.

3) Palm from Never Let Me Go/ OurSkyy2 (2022-23)

The anger I felt for all the injustice and mistreatment our beautiful Palm had to face in this show took literal years off my life. It's rare for me to get this passionately protective over a character and yet here we are, in the Palm Protection Squad headquarters. Even Nueng is on the watchlist!

4) Tonhon from Tonhon Chonlatee (2020)

Not to out myself as an enjoyer of silly goofy times , but I did have fun watching Fish Upon The Sky and Secret Crush On You, so OFCOURSE I thought I would like this one too but GOD was it rough. Did I still finish it? Yes. Did I fawn over PoddKhao pairing and have been quietly praying for some kind of reunion ever since? Also yes. Was I foaming at the mouth barking everytime Tonhon AKA Podd was on my screen? I'm not gonna comment without lawyer present.

5) Tew from My Dear Gangster Oppa (2023)

Speaking of Tonhon Chonlatee...AH! Ai Long Nhai (TC's spiritual prequel of sorts) was sure...something. And by something I mean I saw Meen and decided I will never speak ill of men ever again, feminism quite literally left my body. And then a year later My Dear Gangster Oppa came out and guess what??! MEEN IS THE GANGSTER OPPA! Dreams really do come true, kids.

6) Wen from Moonlight Chicken (2023)

(or Tian from ATOATS or Mueang Nan fron FUTS). Mix...I will eat you. Always so dewy and healthy and sparkly-eyed. But Wen from Moonlight Chicken is something out of the realm of my imagination. The sex appeal? The maturity?? The gentleness??!! Somebody sedate me before I say something I will not be able to justify in court.

7) Vee from Love Mechanics (2022)

He is a pretty bisexual who makes the most abhorrent stupid decisions known to men and then weeps and suffers for them WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED? Once again, is the show flawless or even remotely coherent? Absolutely not. That being said Vee brought me so much joy by being stupid I'm forever grateful.

(also YinWar are so back GO WATCH JACK AND JOKER TRAILER)

8) Prapai from Love In The Air (2022)

To a certain extent I've enjoyed every MAME show I've watched. To do that you need to possess the rare ability called "I abandoned every shred of moral integrity to gawk at hot men". And Prapai? MAN is this bitch hot. Tall dark handsome? Check! Bisexual on a bike? Check! Stubborn and annoying? CHECK!

9) Xiang Hao Ting from HIStory3: Make Our Days Count (2019)

*incoherent wailing and sobbing* IM NOT EXPLAINING SHIT ABOUT HIM LEAVE ME ALONE

10) AlanJeff from Pit Babe (2023)

My newest obsession! I refuse to separate our local senior citizen and his favorite prophetic mechanic. Both of them are hot as shit in their own way. Alan is a sexy dilf with so much weight and responsibility on his shoulders it's a miracle he retained his optimism and youthful awkwardness. And Jeff is a prickly baby-cow-baby-deer eyed baby that is so touch starved it's actually a little funny. SO I GUESS ALANJEFF SANDWICH IT IS.

(don't be shy tag yourselves besties <3)

two EARLY early rusty pfps of mine.........these are so old it feels like they're from another dimension at this point. both are from september 2022 or so

#you can see that I clarified what I wanted from my rusty very quickly #these versions are maybe a handful of weeks apart #the left is my first colored drawing of rusty and the one on the right already features a lot of my trademarks #face rust‚ near-black base‚ no orange in the costume itself‚ red theme‚ FANGS‚ yellow eyes‚ chin shape and mullet #overall a heavy broadway / g mowry influence combined with my own headcannons #you can also see exactly how rusty's face rust eventually grew into the large path across his nose cuz i just added more every time LOL #and the old four pointed star in his eyes headcannon which i came up with on my first day into starex and eventually stopped drawing bc- #-the way i draw eyes just doesn't really allow for it #anyways. history lesson or whatever #these were both my pfp for some time but i never actually POSTED them #i can do another few posts with my pfps but probably on mus1ca1 instead bc they're lower quality from here on out #stex fanart #rusty the steam engine #stex #art or whatever

october is black history month in the UK I think black people all around the world should celebrate black history month in October as well as feburary with us too <3

#granted every day should be bhm but like. i think it would be fun to also use the uk's bhm as a time to celebrate too! #nonblacks dni #i feel like many ppl dont know abt uk bhm im just saying that over here bhm is in october thats all lol and i think we should #celebrate uk black history

[grabyourpillow]

Let me be the first to tell you that you are all black. The moment these dutch motherfuckers set foot here and decided they white, and you get to be black. And that's the nice name they call you.

American Gods

#I'm thinking about this scene every day #what does “being black” mean? #because. i have friends from different african countries that are so different culturally speaking #even inside one country there are so many cultural differences #that it makes no sense to say they have anything in common anymore than it makes sense to compare someone norwegian with someone from italy #for example #and yet when they came to europe #they instantly became “black” #and there IS #a sense of kinship #but also I think it makes sense in the US where #black people have had their history erased and being black is the only trace of their history left #anyway i don't have a point here i just think abojt this scene a lot. #american gods

my favourite genre of egyptian people reacting to the cleopatra documentary is others being like “but you didn't have a problem when elizabeth taylor played cleopatra!” and them being like “actually yes, we did, y'all just never give a fuck about what we have to say as long as you make money off our culture”

#cleopatra #man i knew this documentary would be a disaster as soon as i watched the trailer #and i knew racists would have a field day with their hysterics about hOw fAr wiLl iT gO and how this is a ~slippery slope~ #like. no its not. #keep racebending to works of fiction and you'll be fine #no serious person would be mad about a cartoon character who's half fish being played by a black woman #also you may consider every once in a while casting people from the culture you're exploiting (ie EGYPTIANS) in your hollywood movies/shows #you know for a change?? #i legit can't name a single case of an egyptian playing an ancient egyptian on screen other than rumi malek in night at the museum 😭 #and yes i know cleopatra is macedonian but as a greek i think her being played by an egyptian woman would be the most respectful portrayal #given that she's an integral part of egyptian history #and it'd be MUCH closer to historical accuracy than any of her hollywood portrayals so far

Zionist that attempt to appeal to black Americans must have absolutely no social awareness because wow. using us as a gotcha with no sense of irony is ridiculous

#not to say that they’re not any ba Zionists #but considering the history there. it’s like asking us to look in the past* and agree with the slavers #I use past lightly #I think every attempt at using black ppl as a gotcha fails so badly because A. solidarity isn’t and should not be transactional #B. Israel has a history of funding antiblackness and perpetuating it #C. during the 2020 protests for George and bri they’re faces were on walls in Gaza and they marched there too #despite their circumstances they cared for our plight with absolutely nothing to gain #we see each others humanity because y’all try to take it away from us so badly #day after day people are radicalizing #Israeli citizens fighting agaisnt their state #us americans making politicians lives hell #people from every country actively fighting against Zionist propaganda #and have been for years #and it’s working

Today we venerate Elevated Ancestor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on his 94th birthday 🎉

A Baptist Minister, civil rights activist & profound hero among our people, we celebrate Dr. King for his pioneering strategy, unprecented leadership, & tireless commitment to the liberation of our people during his 13- year tenure of Civil Rights Movement of the 50s & 60s.

With his eloquent power of spoken word, Dr. King tapped into the heart of a nation that he envisioned to be better than the last. He was & remains til this day, "America's" favorite "Uppity N****".The one who's true intentions, motivations, & tactics have been bleached to fit a more palatable version of history. Do not let present-day America control the narrative. Dr. King was not just merely a dreamer, he was a Revolutionary. Dr. King was VERY clever & a master strategist. His unprecented strategy was labeled non-violent, but ut was VERY violent. It was downright bloody. It was sacrificial. And it was his genius that shifted the world's perspective on "peace" & struck a massive wave of fear atthe core of our enemies nationwide & around the world.

"Africa does have spectacular savages and brutes today, but they are not black. They are the sophisticated white rulers of South Africa who profess to be cultured, religious and civilized, but whose conduct and philosophy stamp them unmistakably as modern-day barbarians.." - Dr. King's "Let My People Go Speech" in 1965; a reflection of his shift toward socioeconomic justice & liberation.

We pour libations & give extra 💐 to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. today. May we also reflect on the lives lost & sacrifices of his lineage.

May his words & legacy live forever. May his tireless work serve as a blueprint & a beacon for those seeking wisedom, liberation, & socioeconomic justice ✊🏾

every day mcr fans prove to be the worst people alive huh

#oh so you can excuse frank being antisemitic and history of being sexist and publicly bashing his young fanbase to spread hate for them #and gerard marrying a racist and being very close friends with several other racists and antisemitics #and turning comments off when Black fans were telling him to make a statement during the protests #and didnt even include a donation link and spun it about him being ‘sensitive’ to fans rightfully being mad #you can ignore the history of racism in their band and members and who they hang around #and you can ignore (again) the racism and antisemitism in the fanbase and entire scene that had people sending BIPOC death threats recently #and you can ignore how mcr continues to profit off nostalgia and any work/activism they did in the early 2000s while making no statement #or work or helping people in the current day despite being rich and able to safely instead. #while either 1) getting mad because frank apparently has an ai music video. excusing everything including the antisemitism he JUST left as #a comment on said announcement because it doesn't concern you #or 2) calling it discourse or ‘cancel culture’ and making jokes about it until ‘everyone gets bored and things go back to how they were« #as a GOOD thing because it doesn't concern you and you're that big of a piece of shit #like yay happy for you that your shitty idol who frequently writes incest and constantly sexualize Asian women #and has a history of being tolerate and complying to racism wore a fucking skirt to get richer #but can you actually have any fucking morals or care for anyone around you and get some fucking perspective. #i dont give a shit if you like their music but how people constantly talk about the members as if this is something they can and should #brush under a rug and never deal with is so infuriating and nauseating to see every fucking time #im sending every single Jewish and POC person in the alt/emo community my love. you all deserve better than this shit.

Why this blan tried to tell me that [all] ATRs and ADRs go way back to Egypt and everything in Africa comes from Egypt

Blan can you let West & Central Africa be themselves like get off hoteptok or wherever. You're not getting "woke points" for doing this shit. Egypt isn't the only damn source of everything in Africa. Vodun/Vodou is not the Ancient Egyptian religion. Santería doesn't have roots in Egypt. And trying to tell me like you're an expert will get you set aside.

White "allies" chill TF out challenge

(I'm personally more directly from Benin and Sierra Leone than Egypt; a great grandmother's from Sierra Leone)

#every day I am tested on this earth #white allies #no cuz why are you even tryna say something after I say no #if I say we're related to the Kongo and Dahomey #why are you telling me oh but further it's Egypt #why are you trying so hard to make it so #it's not Christianity going back to one source for millennia despite the great Schism #you can't treat the history of ATRs like a school textbook and the Christian church 😒 #afro witch #black spirituality #witchblr #witch of color #witches of color #witchcraft #ancestors #hoodoo #haitian vodou #vodun #ancient egypt

Observing naturally black hair in sunlight is funny because 50% of the time I'll be like "huh, the difference between that and my shade of dark brown isn't actually very big" and the other 50% it's "holy shit, not even comparable"

All thanks to the angle of the light or something

#how does physics. #i still don't fully believe the claims that my grandmother had black hair when she was young #not because it's at all unlikely but just because you CANNOT TRUST the average german to understand or care about the difference #but then i'll meet some random polish person with jet black hair and I'm like. oh. #i'll never know about my other grandma because her hair was already white when i was born and i have no one to ask #oh it's heartache o'clock now is it #sometimes i meet other people who didn't get to know all of their grandparents and they don't seem to care so much #so i think perhaps i should stop making a big deal out of it but there is truly so much pain in our family history #i can't look at it too closely before i get overwhelmed #but these eyes and this hair ... i see them every day. that is all #welp. tag tangent #;
