Netflix doesn't even realize how much of a mistake this is, and that ain't even the worst part, the worst par is that it was a good story, for once, it wasn't a silly show or a forced story, it wasn't full of strereotypical characters or fake ones, it was not boring or hard to watch...
It was one of those good stories, you know what I mean, the kind of story that makes you look nervously at the amount of pages left and read as slowly as possible....the kind of story that makes you check the time and get mad when you realize that you already watched 5 episodes.
Its the kind of story that makes you slow down and take your time, a kind of story that's hard to find.
A good story deserves a good end, a proper one, not this.

Well you have studied practically all your life to learn how to paint or draw. You've torn sheets, destroyed canvases, broken brushes, you've had your fingers smeared with all sorts of colours and graffiti. You have known the wonder and pain of the gift you have had, and the complexity and dedication it takes to cultivate it, make it yours, hate it and love it, put a piece of you into every line or colour on that paper or canvas. Or even graphics tablet! Well now, we may as well retire, because they seem to tell us that a machine can do what we do a thousand times better. Is this our reward for giving ourselves to the world with our art? I say no. No matter how much you see those AI works appreciated, no matter if all those years of study and love seem to you now to be for nothing. Don't feel you have been outclassed or sunk artists. Look and you will see that what you have in front of you are all identical pieces, strereotypes, perfect yes, immaculate yes, flawless yes, but where is the uniqueness of the human being? Where is the originality, the tenacity, the extravagance, the ardour and the passion? There are non, artists. There is none. Art is not perfection, art is the rush of the human soul, an irrepressible passion, a message, a piece of soul on a canvas. Nobody is like us artists, paint, make the world a more beautiful place in humanity and passion.
Please GO ON!

This is a thread full of stuff pointing out why Bridget is trans, INCLUDING A CANON VOICE LINE. Spoken in both Japanese AND English! I understand that it doesn't make you freaks happy to have a fetishitic strereotype taken & turned into something good, but lying about what happened isn't going to change it. Good lord.

Possessing both strereotypically feminine and masculine personality traits/interests as a man or woman should not be that big of a deal, and isn't all that special or unique. Welcome to being a multifaceted human being like everyone tf else.

Tcw Special/movie thingy
The fuckign trooper that just straight up PUNCHES a droid is my favorite.
OMFG BBY AHSOKA SHES SO YOUNG
Man, the animation was so stiff back then.
Hey, uh, isn’t declaring surrender and then attacking afterwards uh, a war crime? I guess they don’t have Geneva in space.
“With some training and patience (Ahsoka) could really amount to something” oh boy, if he only knew.
Bby slug! Stinky boye.
Dooku looks so damn goofy I swear.
*Artoo scream*
Ah, Ventress, the problematic fave.
Alien dragonflies!
*Artoo scream again*
I know it’s for comic relief but why did the separatists program the droids to be stupid?
Ok so I’d like to say imo Ziro isn’t completely a gay strereotype, he’s also Southern as fuck.
I like tcw Padme a lot more than movie Padme.
Wait, isn’t this not that long after anakin slaughtered the tuskens?
All this fuss over the huttlet but I don’t think we ever hear about him again?
Filoni has been at this for a long time, huh?

i dont get why people want to make a character from another culture and straight up not research anything up just basing all of it on your previous knowledge which is. probably dependent on stereotypes

A Note About the Cloudbabies and Appearance
Hey so I wanted to write this a while back but I got sick (not Covid) and then I just got distracted but I wanted to mention something I’ve noticed about people discussing the appearance of Aang and Katara’s kids. Namely that the character designs didn’t look “mixed enough” to depict children from an interracial couple.
Now, I do get the idea that having two lighter-skinned characters coming from a light-skinned character and a dark-skinned character provoking sort of a visceral reaction. I also understand that people feel that some of the characters’ features were white-washed, and that’s a fair criticism, given that Kya especially seemed to be based off her VA and not actually someone who had indigenous and East Asian ancestry. 
But as someone who is biracial, I’d just ask people to be really careful in making determinations about who looks “mixed” enough and who doesn’t, because that can be a tricky and really touchy subject for many of us.
My dad’s white and my mom’s Black. My twin brother and I have what probably a lot of people consider to be the “biracial” look when it comes to Black/White parentage. We’re both light-skinned with curly hair (3b if you keep track of those things.) It’s obvious that we have Black ancestry -- we cannot “pass” for white. But people look at us and can usually tell we’re mixed.
Our little sister on the other hand? Has our dad’s red hair and gray eyes, and has pale skin. Our mother was often mistaken for her nanny or babysitter when she was younger, and now at 15 when she is leaning more into her experiences as a woman with Black heritage who can pass for white, she’s finding a lot of doors closed to her because she doesn’t “look” like my brother or me or like Zendaya or Tinashe or anyone else who is biracial and has certain features that has been strereotyped as what Black/White people look like.
We all look different, though. Zendaya and Laura Harrier both have white moms and Black dads. Jurnee Smolett and Duchess Meghan both have white dads and Black moms. The “mixed�� look Is based in broad generalizations, and while there’s some truth in any generalization, it’s important to note that there’s no one way to look mixed, just as there’s no one way to look Black, no one way to look Asian, no one way to look Latine, and obv no one way to look white.
So bringing this back to the cloudbabies: Tenzin is no less a Water Tribe man because he doesn’t look as much like one as Bumi does. Kya is no less a direct descendant of an Air Nomad because she has more of a Water Tribe “look” to her. And just because  Bumi seems to be more of a direct synthesis of Aang and Katara, that doesn’t mean Tenzin and Kya aren’t just as biracial as he is.
So, tl;dr, we mixed people don’t have any one look, and it’s a little weird when there’s this desire to brand someone not looking like they’re mixed enough to be what they are. Just a thought! Thanks for reading.

I saw it on ig, but we were truly robbed
If only producers had enough balls to portray queer relationships at that time outside of the “gay friend/ couple” strereotype. 😔🥊

Blessed—or cursed, depending on how you look at it—With an eidetic memory, Elle Burns is one of the union’s most secret weapons. A spy embedded in a southern senators household as a slave. Keeping her head down, she’s able to pass on secret messages to Washington to help aid the union in the Civil War. But all of this changes when she meets one Malcolm McCall. A Pinkerton detective, Malcolm is on a mission. Already a veteran of several successful espionage missions he’s heard word of something big is going down and he’s on the hunt for what. Unfortunately he never expected his contact in Richmond to be the utterly bewitching Elle. As a white man posing as a Confederate soldier, It would be dangerous for him to act upon his attraction. But he’s somehow can’t seem to stop himself. Cans to manage to track down the mystery in Richmond while keeping their emotions in check? Or will they end up falling in love?
Tumblr media
What a fun historical romance! There’s all of the action and adventure of some of the best romantic suspense in this with all of the heartbreaking and aww-inducing moments of a great romance. The story centers around two spies for the union, one black and one white. One female and one male. And how working together with their series of contacts they’re able to uncover a fairly major threat to the union. I don’t want to give that threat away, but if you’re a fan of history, it’s pretty easy to figure out where the plot is going and it’s quite fun to go there. When I figured out my jaw dropped and i went “oooooohhhhh” and rubbed my hands in glee.
Tumblr media
I really liked Elle as a main character. I liked that she had her roots in a real life spy who was also an enslaved women with a eidetic memory. Seeing her taking the reins and using the Southerners and white people’s preconceptions against them was cool. I was here for it. I like to relationships with the other enslaved people in the household as well as that with Malcolm. I liked that the story never forgot the huge gulf in opportunity and respect that stood between them. I found Malcolm a fun hero. He was alpha without being annoying. He knew his strengths and he played into them. his backstory mirrored Elle’s in an odd way -- he’s Scottish and one of the refugees from the Highland Clearances. It wasn’t fully the same--it can’t be--but it gave the characters a place to communicate and understand each other from. I liked that his skills wasn’t in his arm but in his voice. That he used his words to get what he wanted. He was charismatic and a skilled liar which served him well until all of a sudden it really really didn’t. He was a good foil for Elle and together they made a good team.
Tumblr media
I also liked how Southerners were portrayed that they weren’t just a melodramatic villain twirling their mustaches. They were complex characters with wants and layers, and even though they were truly on the side of inhumanity they weren’t themselves portrayed as a monolith. There were Southerners who fit the strereotypes and others who really did not. I also liked that one of the most horrific characters in the novel was a white woman aka the stereotypical southern belle. She was Scarlett O’Hara as she really would have been if she hadn’t been the designated heroine of Gone with the Wind—Spoiled, horrible, deceitful.
Tumblr media
You know, like the actual Scarlett... but not glamorized.
Frankly this book needs to be turned into a movie or Netflix needs to be developing this into a new series. I would watch the heck out of it.
Trigger warnings because this books does need them include: Racism, racist language, discussion of rape, attempted rape, slavery and all of it’s trauma, so yeah.  Make sure you are in a good place before reading this.
But if you’re looking for something to read this Juneteenth, consider this book by a Black author that actually has great historical basis (and cites its sources--I stan a romance that cites its sources) about the Civil War and the fight for African American Emancipation, then you’ll want to read this.
Five Stars
