Sometimes the commodification of non-US cultures on this website is really frightening. If you boil down your whole understanding of a country based on a single actor, what are you even doing?

#I don't even go to fandom much on this website apart from tes. fallout and tf2 #genuinely the amount of blorboposting about Michael Sheen is frightening #like he's a whole ass dude who is Welsh #but people treat him like he's magical or mystical because of it and it feels really weird and uncomfortable #I know that Wales (and by extension Welsh actors) aren't super well known #but this is just an extension of the museification of the modern Celtic nations (e.g. Ireland. Wales. Scotland #It's super weird - stop it #Michael Sheen #Wales
