i’m looking through people’s reactions to lin-manuel miranda being hermes and i can’t breathe

[emothalia]

thoughts on lin manuel miranda being cast as hermes?

i think rick cast latino luke and then couldnt think of any other latino actors to play his dad

The fact that some of you place the burden of educating you on children and continue to harass them to the brink of them breaking down and crying in the disguise of anonymity is beyond disgusting and vile. Be ashamed of yourselves. Multiple people spoke up about feeling uncomfortable and upset and you willingly choose to ignore that over and over for a twisted and perverted kick. Insane.

in all seriousness tho i really hope those of you all who are directly dealing with racist messages or multiple people in your ask box treating you like a search engine, are taking breaks and turning off asks even if it’s just for a brief amount of time. ESPECIALLY minors. these discussions are important but right now but so is your mental health.

sorry ok sorry but every time i hear someone say “rick has good intentions, he’s trying his best!” ok sure, if he was trying his best he wouldn’t have samirah marry her fucking cousin in an arranged marriage while being underage; if he was trying his best he wouldn’t have put feathers in piper’s hair for decoration and framed it as her stubborn streak; if he was trying his best he wouldn’t be comparing frank’s body to baby sumo wrestlers or panda bears or have leo’s only description be ‘a latino santa’s elf’ or force hazel, a young black girl who’s in middle school, in a relationship with a junior year high school student and claim that she is mature for her age. maybe he had good intentions, maybe he was trying his best — but don’t fucking use that as an argument to excuse the ignorant and stereotypical elements in his writing. if he was ‘trying his best,’ he would listen to his fans of color and promise to be more mindful in the future but instead he uses his platform to excuse what he wrote in the past! so i literally don’t care if he has good intentions when he writes ‘diversity’ when he doesn’t seem to even listen to criticism.

no more talking about how rick is better than jkr or whatever tf you white bloggers wanna say in support of him

let's talk about how y'all made it impossible for poc to feel comfortable in fandom. how i have literal anxiety attacks every time a post of mine blows up bc i know someone is about to say stupid shit!!

let's talk about how y'all want to ship girls of color with people older than them consistently despite the sexualization we go through!!! y'all wanna defend shipping fr*zel as if hazel isn't 13 and as if black and indigenous girls are more likely to be murdered, assaulted and r*ped solely bc of their ancestry and skin tone.

y'all are so quick to explain what racism is to me as if I haven't spent my entire life living as a black girl, being called "fast" and "inappropriate" just bc my tits and my ass grew faster than the rest of my friends. as if my mom doesn't worry that every time i walk out the door, that i might not come home and she'll have to go down to the police station to give a statement or to the morgue to identify my body.

i am so tired of this. you say that you stand with us, and that you care for us, but you don't. you only care when it benefits you. I'm done at this point.

racism is still racism when it's your faves, it's still racism if it's not meant maliciously, it's still racism if they didn't know.

me, having no memory of the heroes of olympus, slowly trying to piece together the plot details from one sentence posts on my feed and memes from my mutuals about how rick ruined the og characters: 

[emothalia]

[emothalia]

Is Paul aware??? That Sally???? Literally killed her ex-husband????????

[emothalia]

piper will be like "boys are stupid and i hate them" and leo will be like "except me right?" and piper will be like "especially you ❤" and leo who has selective hearing will be like "thank you for calling me special 😌" and thats their friendship
