cant put my finger on it, but Taylor Swift feels like walking racial microaggression

#it's not even the fact that she let herself become a white supremacist idol without telling them to fuck off #and when asked why she didn't she said she was from Nashville where the Dixie Chicks were a cautionary tale #meanwhile she had no qualms calling out sexism in the industry #but white supremacy was too far apparently #but leaving aside all of that‚ she's so fucking aggressively mediocre #and her 'girl gang' is just rich thin white women #let's not forget that racist Wildest Dreams video shall we? #she's talented and worked hard yeah but her parents are rich and connected as hell #also Swifties are some of the most obnoxious fucking people in music fandom #who get mad when WoC queer women and leftists can't stand her #the whole private jet thing was just icing on the cake tbh #Casey McQuiston had one throwaway line in RWRB where the MoC and Jewish girl dissed her #and half the white queers took that personally #Jesus fuck #let people hate rich thin white women #I mean heck I like Ed Sheeran's music but I don't take it personal when other people don't #then again I don't get idolising celebrities #just because I love someone's music doesn't mean I give much of a shit about them as people #these are objectively complete randos no matter what you think you know about them #anti Taylor swift #people with T-Swift hate blogs also dni #this post is about casual white privilege not whatever weird obsessive shit you got going on #white women #racism #white privilege #knee of huss

Something that's really irritating me about the Off-White doll is that when you look at the concept art, she has 0 monster features aside from her green skin. Her monster type was such an after thought, and that's why its so poorly reflected in her design. Like she's supposed to be a fish (I think) where are her scales? Where are her fins? For such an expensive doll, I expected more than just a reused face mold, and a very easily recognizable one at that.

Her concept art really looks like a pale Casta Fierce. And honestly, I would probably like her more if that was the direction they took. Instead of being completely new, lazily designed characters, they could have done something like "Casta Fierce modelling for Off-Fright" or something, and added a witchy twist to the actual Off-White look. I mean, it would still be grossly overpriced, but I guarantee she'd sell better, especially considering Casta only ever got one doll. And it would've been SO PERFECT for an October Friday the 13th release.

#monster high #mattel #mattel creations #casta fierce #off-white #at least that one doll has a cool thing going on #it looks like their using the original concept they had for river styxx with the whole see through skin #where you can see her skull underneath which is cool #the dragon(??) doll would be cool if it didnt look liker her horns were just on her hat #and for a dragon her design is so fucking boring like come on #and aside from her wings and fake horns she also light on monster features #not even fangs?? damn... #idk what the hetereochromia girl is meant to be #apparently they're all available in actual off-white stores #looking on mattel creations it really looks like they're grasping at straws to try and sell her to people #text post #i dont even really know what to say about the clothes #i feel like a lot of rich people might buy them without even really knowing what mh is just for the novelty of doll sized designer clothes

#oooooh time for another controversial opinion #i get that babygate frustrates us and just puts us off and all that i get that i was there when it happened i'm still here i feel the same #but can we all just think. for once. that it's possible that it's harder for louis than it is for us? #like. we can ignore it and talk shit about but it's actually his fucking reality #and yeah he's rich and white and privileged but also like. this has so much to do about his mental health than all that #i get us being frustrated but i truly don't understand people getting entitled???? like you can't just end it with a click of a button #there's SO MUCH entangled in this #people act like louis CHOSE this like louis WANTED this and it's like. you're diminishing his brain and intellect to that #ending babygate will lead to a cascading domino effect of a lot of things. like it'll be the industry's biggest exposé #so yeah i just think that louis' doing his best and maneuvering it in ways that he thinks is wise #like you can't just be like ''so i'm not the father. also i'm gay. also fuck syco. fuck the industry'' without it literally shifting the #entire industry. like the entire band will be affected. even harry #so can we all just. for one second sit back and realise that LOUIS is the one who's actually dealing with this and we're just WATCHING it? #like this isn't our reality this isn't our life we don't know anything and can we at least give louis a bit more credit #than the rubbish narrative that ''he wants this'' like fuck's sake #babygate

@mareastrorum out here calling me out in front of my salad.

#for the people who are not in both LitMoR and Roseverse fandom (hah) #Ashley Allard is a rich white boy extremely powerful hypercompetent villain #whose driving focus is his obsession with a character who is never going to fuck him #(the difference is Lucien interacts with Ashley like once and legitimately does not care beyond WHY ARE YOU OBSESSED WITH ME???) #still funny tho #Alastor and Lucien do have a lot of the same qualifiers it’s so funny

i think everyone on sunnytwt needs to be sat down so i can explain to them what basic human empathy is. and then maybe i put them in a blender until they agree to write meta about the characters instead of whether or not charlie day got facial reconstruction surgery.

#ada speaks #u do not exist in a vacuum and your words have the capability to harm others #celebrities may not see your tweets but your balding transmasc mutual and your follower who feels self conscious about her nose will #it is fucking bizarre the way these people conduct themselves online #really. really fucking weird man #and then you see them acting like ppl are 'defending rich white men' #instead of taking issue with the actual shit theyre saying #whether or not you think rcg has been 'under the knife' or not #a) how is this any of your business. you are not entitled to this info nor do you have a free pass to criticize someone's personal choice #b) ask yourself why you feel you need to critique alleged surgeries and how they stack up to imposed conventional beauty standards #c) you do not *own* them. you can have opinions on your own attraction to them but #a person getting plastic surgery or hair plugs or whatever is up to them. not you. if it helps to make them feel better then who cares. #just because it doesn't make them attractive to YOU doesn't mean its okay to point and laugh #if a trans guy got top surgery and it was 'botched' would you act like they were stupid for getting it in the first place? #if a trans woman decided she wanted to surgically shave her jaw would you shame her for that? #it's their body. it's not yours. #for the record i don't believe any of them have gotten work done but think its a stupid thing to speculate on regardless #ive watched family members go through plastic surgeries of varying success. ive seen them get botox and hair plugs and everything #normal everyday people do it and it's not always about vanity #it can be for gender reaffirming reasons (and yes this includes when cis people do it) to alleviate dysphoria #trying to point out alleged surgical alterations made is just. gross #not to mention that holy shit MOST of the shit ppl are saying is like. age. different hairstyles. different facial expressions. #maybe if these people actually watched the show theyd be able to see the gang in action instead of staring at pics like spot the difference

I have no idea why but I absolutely hate how Ameridan' story was handled, they basically dumbed it down to him worshipping both the creators and andraste/chant of light, which kind of proved Cassandra's dumb (and incredibly disrespectful) point of an inquisitor having "room for another god". It's also so unfair how they made the evanuris to just be power hungry slavers and tyrants, my only hope is that if the creators were disproving then I hope it would be the same for the chant of light and maker (seeing asnit was solas who made the veil and not the creator) I really hate how centrist the game has gotten, like flat out, whenever I hear the words grey morality and nuance I can't help burn cringe, that's how much dragon age has ruined it for me.

It's also so incredibly funny how the devs are genuinely surprised that most of the players are pro mage, like of course we are?

i think it's particularly extremely aggravating, the way bioware writers write about a pantheon as if polytheistic religions are simply a thing of the past and dead and some kind of mystery/mythology. according to bioware, this kind of writing for polytheistic religions is fine because no real religion these days would everrrrrrr worship multiple gods /sarcasm. (note that the links are just some examples and not comprehensive in the least)

there's a lot of writing choices i quite simply disagree with in dai, and there's some that are just... i don't even disagree with them because that implies it's something to argue about. some of their writing choices are just wrong. after borrowing so heavily from ethnic groups to shape their fictional histories, the disrespect of writing their fictional oppressed minorities as being responsible for their own oppression because they were not "open" enough to include/absorb expy christianity into their religious beliefs and fought back against violent colonialism. the resulting clumsy collation between isr*el and the indigenous people of the americas wanting to reclaim their lands stolen from them by white colonisers makes my blood boil.

ameridan is just another piece of the puzzle that makes me seethe. we have a man who apparently ~existed before hostilities between the elves and the humans~ which is now the fault of drakon's son who invaded the dales after ameridan was long gone. that's already absolute bullshit because ameridan lived in the fucking dales. elves only started living in the dales AFTER ANDRASTE'S REBELLION. after the fall of arlathan, and hundreds of years of enslavement at the hands of tevinter humans???

additionally, the battle of red crossing happened in 2:9 glory, but tensions between the elves and humans had been building up since the second blight. drakon the first died in 1:45 but the elves apparently did "nothing" to help montsimmard when it was overrun by darkspawn in 1:25 divine - twenty years before his death, there was already simmering resentment. additionally, it was drakon the first that expanded the orlesian empire and the orlesian chantry - wotv2 notes his battles against the darkspawn did more to spread the chant of light (specifically, the orlesian chant of light which he, yknow, fucking made up) than any of his other attempts. by the time the exalted march on the dales happens, over three quarters of thedas is under orlesian rule. maferath himself handed the dales to the surviving elves from andraste's campaign in -165 ancient and the elves lived in the dales peacefully until the orlesian chantry was salivating at its borders. and the orlesian chantry has a history of wiping out "cults" - i.e. other sects of their own religion that differ from belief, no matter how minor, to their own. including, notably, the wholesale genocide of a non-violent sect centered around fertility rituals and, later, the dragon worshipping sect in haven off their own land. (and i'm willing to BET MONEY that they were originally alamarri themselves, considering that andraste was brought there to rest, and considering how cultural variance in religion usually occurs [i.e. through the blending/adoption of folk beliefs or the cultural/religious practices from Before]. so the andrastians slaughtered the cult AND THEN TOOK THEIR FUCKING LAND.)

the entire way andrastianism is treated in inquisition makes me violent. and unfortunately, it does not look like it's going to change - there's been multiple statements about how the maker's existence will continue to remain "a mystery" out of a reluctance to confirm or deny the existence of a One True God which, coupled with how they've shat on every other religion in the game - the tevinter chantry, the qun, the stone, the elven pantheon, every other sect worshipping the maker/andraste - gives me absolutely no hope that the writing team is going to get their heads out of their asses about it.

#asks #bioware critical #dai critical #and tbh at this point i really think anyone acting like the writing team is being geniuses or whatever is kinda racist and deluded lmao #most polytheistic religions surviving today are inextricably linked to ethnicity and culture and rich histories of surviving and resisting #colonialist attempts to wipe them out. i feel like comparatively there's fewer polytheistic religions in ''the west'' (more specifically #rooted in white culture) as a result of that. but bioware didn't borrow from THOSE white-rooted polytheistic religions and cultures #they borrowed from native; jewish; roma; even hinduism when it came to the dalish elves but people want to act like the only thing bioware #is pulling from is fucking norse mythology. borrowing character archetypes from norse mythology and planting them onto your #fictional ethnic minorities based off real life religions and people. IS NOT ACTUALLY GOOD WRITING. when you dont CONSIDER the implications #like Gods Not Being Good or having Separate Morals To Humans is a huge theme for norse mythology #but not so much afaik in other polytheistic religions TODAY??? #fucking bioware SHOULD HAVE JUST USED NORSE MYTHOLOGY AS A BASE FOR THE ELVES FROM THE START #and NOT brought other ethnic groups into it??? #the moment they did they SHOULD HAVE been considering the implications of their writing. and that they didn't and continue NOT TO #is actually something people are allowed to be fucking upset about!!!!

cannot imagine getting mad about gnome racism when the main gnome cast is just like. white people who are purple

im very sorry barcus tucci but you are distracting from a serious conversation about racism in western fantasy when the slave-keeping race of dwarves overwhelmingly look like this

#it's so unserious lmao? #literally so many things to critique #from the way white gays didn't want to acknowledge that racebending karlach was fucked up #to how wyll is handled by the writers and fandom alike #or the ongoing weird shit dnd rehashes every time when it comes to nomadic peoples (the vistani & the gur) #or how primitive/tribal bleeds into more violent wrt goblins bugbears etc #but for some reason we're ..... talking abt ast*rion's gnome racism........ #fandom critical #bg3 critical cw #honestly reminds me how dai made their first SEA man a rich guy who does some mild slavery apologia #and their black female character the most divisive voice on ~mage rights~ #like this isn't subversive writing yall. it's just dumb as hell #*south asian man i think actually. not SEA

to begin this I'm not trying to be a hater and I'm especially not trying to be a hater of the queer media that we have been getting this summer/will be getting this fall because it is really important BUT it'd be great if the queer media we always talk about would more often be about sapphics

#good omens #rwrb #heartstopper #ofmd #see once again i'm not hating! i love all of those or i think they are kinda cool if i havent seen them #but often they are about beautiful thin (mostly) young (mostly) white men #rich men #or heavily masculine-presenting people anyways #and i know it is greatly marketable to many younger fan(girl)s who feel #more comfortable in their sexualities if they can disassociate from the characters by at least their gender #and it is hard being a teenage girl and comfortable about your body and sexuality and mind and yourself whatsoever which i understand but #but sapphics deserve to be featured in media! they deserve to be seen and loved! #and not just as funny unimportant side characters with no distinctive personalities but as compelling and layered and fleshed out main chara #cters #and also i am focusing on like women/sapphics in this post but #we must be more diverse in the sense of gender race body types neurodivergency disability social status etc etc #and yall know thered be a huge fucking audience to love and support such books/movies/tv shows #lgbtq+ #queer media

maybe this is me having too much faith in the people calling for the extermination of an entire ethnic group but idk. i feel like the fact that israel has the most powerful settler colony on the fucking planet bending over backwards to defend them from literally every other country should be enough to make at least some zionists realize that they are not the good guys

#skye's ramblings #i dont know man im just. so tired. im so fucking angry all the time. i want this to end #i dont understand how people dont see that this is literally just textbook colonialism. and how some do know and simply dont care #i dont have enough contact with the native side of my family to feel justified saying 'as a native person-' #and i certainly dont want to speak over palestinians but fuck man. this just cuts so deep. white people have been doing this for centuries #they dont care about the lives the history the rich beautiful culture they dont fucking care about anything that lacks 'pure western values #they dont fucking care all they fucking do is destroy and steal because everything belongs to them in their eyes #israel is an illegitimate state composed of europeans living on stolen land that they say is theirs bc they're 'gods chosen people' #the 'savages' are now 'terrorists' but the sentiment remains that they are a stain that must be erased to make way fr the good white people #your philosophy is a poorly disguised recreation of manifest destiny that uses judaism as a shield #as if your religion has any relevancy to the fact that people fucking hate you for gleefully slaughtering families and stealing their homes #i dont know. i grieve the lack of connection to that side of my culture and these people are having theirs ripped away from them as i speak #i dont know how people can support this. i dont know. i feel sick.

i don't care enough to comment on the watcher situation and this is certainly no defense but i do think they have quickly out found the hard way how annoying their fanbase is

#beehive whispers #like some of these people have to get a grip 😭 #like you're surprised that the 3 guys who own a company (in fucking LA) would try to make more money???? 🤨 come on #you think they wouldn't do this bc... checks notes the white guy you have a parasocial relationship with said eat the rich a few times #i reiterate. come ON. #tbd #anyways i'll delete this eventually but i am going to spend this sunday like an adult and binge watch the sopranos

Jon Stewart remains being a ‘ both parties are bad’ dumbass.

ALSO when people are like "taylor is the straightest person" which always comes from people who don't know the lore but it's always like. okay it's because you think she's cringe-y. idk how to tell you this but gay people are not inherently like, cool and suave or what fucking ever lol 30-somethings who use embarrassing language on the internet can be gay. sorry if that's hard for you.

#it's so stupid skjdfkjs #like hi you know there are people in the lgbt community you will find unlikable for any number of reasons right #like if you think she's straight bc that's how she presents herself then fair! but like #literally if it's because you think she acts embarrassing sorry that particular bit does not negate the possibility #also hiiiii it's so clear y'all as always think someone has to be like perfect to count as marginalized lol #if you fuck up ever then you get what's coming to you apparently #and ya know. you can talk about all the many ways she is privileged but if she were gay she would still experience homophobia #even being cis and rich and white that does not make any member of the community exempt from homophobia #but somehow that really does not click for a lot of you
