Okay non-European tumblr, I’m gonna explain to you why ‘white’ isn’t as simple here as it is in the rest of the world
- Shades of white in Europe range from ‘freshly fallen snow’ to ‘I am frequently mistaken as being from the Middle East’
- White European is a thing. When you fill out a form, under ethnicity, there are several options for white; white British, white European, white other. Because people make that distinction
- There are Europeans who don’t class their ethnicity as their skin colour, but as their nationality. I have family who don’t think of themselves as white, they just think of themselves as Italian and don’t really give much thought to their skin colour
- People here in Britain always question if darker skinned white Europeans are ‘actually white’. I get it a lot myself. My response is always ‘well I’m not anything else, so obviously I must be’
- Despite being white, a lot of Europeans from Italy, Greece, Spain etc, don’t feel white in the traditional sense. We’re not white like white British people. We’re not white like white Americans. We’re our own white. White British is one thing. White Italian is another thing. White Greek is another, etc
- Which is why we have this notion here in Europe of ‘nationality over race’. Being white isn’t as important as where you’re from
- So this really only becomes an issue if you’re an immigrant
- So being white in Europe doesn’t save you from racial discrimination, because sure, you’re technically white, but you’re not white white. Not the right white
- Here in England, Europeans with really blatantly foreign names, such as myself, find it more difficult to get job interviews, because they take one look at our name and don’t bother reading the rest of the CV. A guy I know was actually told by his boss to reduce the pile of CVs he had by ‘chucking away any with a name you can’t fucking pronounce’
- And then even when you do get an interview, half the time you walk into the joint several shades darker than everyone else and feel like you’ve walked into the ‘Swedish supermodel’ clubhouse and you just know you’re not getting hired
This is all basic stuff and it’s very much taken for granted here. Race and ethnicity are not as clear cut, so it can be very confusing for non-Europeans to wrap their heads around. Which is fine. But I implore you to stay in your lane, because when you say things like ‘no white person anywhere in the world ever knows what it’s like to face racial discrimination’, it’s really fucking offensive to all of the European immigrants who are denied jobs, harassed by the police and beaten by racists, because foreign is foreign to these people, and they don’t give a shit if you’re technically white. So when you mean white American, say white American.

This is my ideal man!
British, sweet, cute, nerdy and kind of socially awkward!

Tutti conoscono le sue origini nobili, la sua fama di leonessa in tribunale e la sua freddezza nelle questioni private. Ma a sua madre questo non sembra importare.

Quote
Ti meriti un amore che ti voglia spettinata, con tutto e le ragioni che ti fanno alzare in fretta, con tutto e i demoni che non ti lasciano dormire. Ti meriti un amore che ti faccia sentire sicura, in grado di mangiarsi il mondo quando cammina accanto a te, che senta che i tuoi abbracci sono perfetti per la sua pelle. Ti meriti un amore che voglia ballare con te, che trovi il paradiso ogni volta che guarda nei tuoi occhi, che non si annoi mai di leggere le tue espressioni. Ti meriti un amore che ti ascolti quando canti, che ti appoggi quando fai il ridicolo, che rispetti il tuo essere libero, che ti accompagni nel tuo volo, che non abbia paura di cadere. Ti meriti un amore che ti spazi via le bugie che ti porti l’illusione, il caffè e la poesia.
Frida Kahlo

Why I loved the “Malec” Kiss
1. They gazed at each other forever, and it was like the world had stopped and they were the only ones in the room
2. Alec experienced every symptom that Magnus described previously, and never took his eyes off of Magnus as he walked towards him (and totally blew off his own mother)
3. Not only did they kiss, first of all, but it was ALEC that initiated it
4. Alec grabbed Magnus’s lapels and PULLED him into the kiss
5. Magnus wasn’t even sure what was going to happen, but when it did, you can see that small hint of a smile
6. The fact that when Alec pulled away, Magnus was reaching for more, but still respected that Alec needed a second, and you can just tell that both of them were like “Woah…”
7. Then ALEC GAZES AT HIM AND THEN TILTS HIS HEAD AND KISSES MAGNUS EVEN MORE
8. And then the music goes low and you can hear them breathing and kissing each other
9. Of course, Simon’s reaction is the absolute best~ Pretty sure he turned gay for a minute there. Ultimate fanboy
10. One can watch it over and over and still feel the same “YES” reaction

Lettere al fronte - 01-01-1917 (on Wattpad) http://w.tt/1mVMSLF E' il 1916. La Prima Guerra Mondiale è in pieno svolgimento e il conflitto dilaga tutta l'Europa. Eleonor e William sono due giovani come tanti altri, costretti a separarsi quando lui viene arruolato e mandato al fronte. Si dice che la distanza non è importante quando due anime si amano, ma adesso ci sono il canale della Manica, le truppe tedesche e chilometri su chilometri di battaglie a separare Len e Will. Riuscirarà il loro amore a sopravvivere?

Non so bene perché mi sono messa a scrivere questa storia... forse solo per vedere come funzionava Wattpad...
