As tumblr attests to, it's quite easy for people who've grown up since the early 2000s to hold emancipatory views on sexuality and gender, whilst at the same time internalising and replicating the worst of the War on Terror's racial paranoia and militarism. Excusing the mass murder of Palestinians on the basis that 'well, at least Tel Aviv has some gay clubs' is the mark of a stunted mind. But it also speaks to the corrosive effects of a post-9/11 culture in which the killing of Arabs and Muslims has been rendered into an everyday spectacle.

Imagine if Rumi found out Celine had a relationship with her mom too. Either she sees an old record or puts it together and understands that while her mother doomed their relationship for falling for a demon, Celine will always see it as falling for a man instead.

Do you guys think teenage Rumi would visit her mothers grave just to yell at her for cursing her daughter with demon patterns and leaving her with a caregiver who couldn’t love her for who she was?

Obsessed with the idea of Armin turning around and smiling at Mikasa for obvious reasons but also the realization that the one person who “couldn’t understand what you were talking about” with the person you planned this trip with, understands what you mean better than the dying relationship with the childhood friend you swore you would always have. It’s so realistic because you would think Eren and Armin would bond over this moment however like other instances in which our friends have expectations of a future that they don’t follow through with, it’s sometimes the other person there who shares the experience better

It boggles me when aot fans continue to just discover Armin and Mikasa’s bond as if they haven’t had the strongest one of the living characters out of the series. Like “they are so underrated!” Whaaaattt do you mean? They were important to each other the entire time. So important that Armin gave Mikasa his butterfly cage before he even met her. Considering how the butterfly represents Mikasa as a character, I would say they were fated to be inseparable since the beginning

Everyone cheers for transmasc headcanons but it's absolute silence in the crowd when you say a character is transfem...

many people in fandom don't want to hear it or admit it, but erasing every single political aspect of a story to instead solely focus on shipping two white guys (or, worse, two people you've whitewashed and misgendered into being white guys) is in fact perpetuating the exact kinds of bigotry the story is about fighting against.

I can’t get over how smart all of huntrix are but especially Rumi. The fact that Golden was HER idea alone at first and the way she strategically sought to release the song the second they saw the gold after they finished their world tour was so business savvy of her. Big fan of how she’s not just a pop star but someone in the industry as well. From a marketing standpoint, it’s a genius move and that’s why the song is so good.

“They did not have to make Armin so cunty” -an actual quote from my sister

[drowninglilys]

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

[drowninglilys]

For every time someone gets mad that Golden is on top of the charts and say it's AI I listen to it four more times lol. It's so funny seeing them annoyed
