I hate how the booktokification of the “unhinged woman” genre has completely reduced the concept of female rage to just “girlboss” without taking seriously how important it is to unequivocally portray female rage.

Throughout the history of literature, we’ve been given countless instances of women in despair and in sadness but save for a few writers (take Euripides, for example), we’ve rarely ever been given angry women who aren’t the villains or the foil for the perfect poised passive princess. Female rage has constantly been subdued and erased or warped into “she’s just batshit crazy” in pretty much every society.

And now that publishing and media marketing has reduced women showing rage in books to the “white hypersexual girlboss with a knife”, instead of uplifting the way women are allowed to have more dimension and sympathy in their visible anger than ever in literature, the media still isn’t taking this subgenre seriously.

got around to reading that article about queerness in mulan (the one that james somerton plagiarized from, lmao) and i am once again reminded of how formative this movie was for me. yeah guys the protagonist doesn't fit into either traditional male or female gender roles. the protagonist looks at her reflection and wonders whether if it will ever reflect who she is on the inside, because if that true self is shown to the world it would disappoint her whole family. the protagonist fails at the being-a-wife test. that's SO CRAZY

was looking through my old art folder, and all my old summary of art pieces were there, so why not post all of them together!

8 years of art in one post! I do think I've improved quite a bit, it's pretty fun to see lmao (also, wow, the before-digital-art times!).

Not Fate fans blaming OG fans for calling out the misogyny, racism, homophobia and fat phobia in Fate on why the show got canceled.

Someone asked me why it's okay to make Stella or Bloom dark skinned in fanarts or why it's okay for characters like Ariel to be cast as colored people in live action films, but not okay to whitewash black characters. Like have Aisha played by a white woman. And tbh, I don't really know how to answer your question because I'm not an expert at this. But if anyone has a good answer or way of explaining, please feel free to!

i'm so sick of my fellow iranians being cringe as fuck on social media and simping for the state of israel out of some insane the enemy of my enemy is my friend mentality like i know this is crazy but you can hate the iranian government without deciding to go full monarchist and act like israelis are liberators of literally anything or anyone

like i'm sorry if the best you can envision for iran is trading one authoritarian for the son of the previous authoritarian (who was literally overthrown bc he was an authoritarian puppet of the united states) solely bc of his name then you hate the iranian people more than i can image
