I do think Blazing Saddles handled its one depiction of native americans very poorly, and the full extent of its representation of chinese workers on the railroad is they were literally just there. not even one single speaking line. unclear if this is worse or better than the redface.

it's fucking phenomenal at lampooning antiblack racism though. extremely blatant, extremely funny satire, which is constantly and loudly saying "racism is the philosophy of the terminally stupid at best and morally depraved at worst, and we should all be pointing and laughing at them 24/7"

plus the main character is a heroic black man who has to navigate a whole lot of bullshit but is constantly smirking at the extraordinarily stupid racists and inviting the audience into the joke. the one heroic white character is a guy who was suicidally depressed until he met the protagonist and they just instantly became buds, and he's firmly in a supporting role the whole time and happy to be there. the protagonist saves the day with the help of his black friends from the railroad, and uses the position of power he was given to uplift not only those friends, but all the railroad workers of other minorities too, in an explicit show of solidarity.

anyone saying "Blazing Saddles is racist" had better be talking about its treatment of non-black minorities. it had better not be such superficial takes as "oh but they say the n-word all the time" or "they have nazis and the kkk in there!" because goddamn if that's the full extent of your critique I very seriously suggest you read up on media analysis. there is too much going over your head, you need to learn to recognize satire.

Hi HAVE YOU SEEN MALLEUS NEW YEAR SSR

once again innocently checking the new schedule only to be hit directly in the face with that famous Twst right hook

I love the contrast between Jayce and Viktor's storylines in Act 2.

Viktor, who has always been behind the scenes, ascends into a messianic, almost "celestial" figure of an utopian place.

Jayce, the man of progress, descended into Hell and returned infested by demons and apocalyptic visions.

A poetry, a tragic dance

Neither of them are particularly NICE to her but daniil’s frequent visible bafflement that people are letting a kid run around like this is. Unbelievably funny

[mrpcreblogtime]

Scott’s six sense for Jimmy because flower husbands always know where the other is.

Versus Grian knowing where he is because he knows the scent of deceit and betrayal wherever it lurks.

Not to be a monumental book tease, but I just got to the rewrites in book two, where Ursula and Nathan are comparing notes on their dom/domme styles with Vlad, and past me was so fucking funny because there are just paragraphs and paragraphs of Nathan being the sweetest, most gentlest, pleasure-centric "ask-me-about-how-in-love-I-am-with-my-vampire-boyfriend" dom in existence. And then there's Ursula:

Succinct and to the point 😂

There are so many paralells between Luka, Sua, and Ivan its crazy. Because in this world where aliens are the dominant species, the three of them all resign themselves to being puppets for the aliens.

Ivan does this by becoming the perfect pet, becoming the best in his class and winning trophies for his owner as well as becoming the image for his owners brand. He doesn’t fight back and instead he plays into his role

Sua was able to rid herself of all of her emotions before meeting Mizi. Able to just sit there for hours, unmoving because she knows theres no point. She does what is told of her and just becomes a doll

Luka wins the 49th season of alien stage and continues on to become a famous idol, even with a whole fanbase and continues to play his role well. He’s a great actor who never falters on stage.

However, because Sua and Ivan were in love, they willingly broke themselves out of their roles. Sua went from being a doll with high hopes for winning to dying the first round. Ivan gave up his chances of winning to save Till, but Luka has no one he wants to save, so he continues to be the doll aliens wanted him to be.
