Could we by any chance hear about the tvdint fics you deemed too scandalous to share?? We are also freaks please I could never find the good non-English ones on my own

As much as I would enjoy putting together another list, I'm a lil too weary of my tastes to reveal em to anyone lol

And again, if you've read through the tvdint tag on ao3, chances are you've read all my faves. Finding non-english fics requires some experimentation (some translate really well, and others are like "well... I know what these words mean separately, but put em together, and.....?????") The best advice I can give is to find an author whose fics translate really clearly (most of the non-english authors i listed in my last fic list have lots of easy-reads! and they are the authors of some of my fave Scandalous Fics 🤫), and then go through their collection of fics to see if they have any more good ones hidden away. Give their bookmarks a quick look too; if they write about tropes/kinks you like, chances are they're looking for the same types of fics as you!

I admittedly have no tips for fic-hunting on pixiv, cuz the way the fic searches on that site are formatted kinda give me a headache after being spoiled by ao3's search engine lol. And i honestly haven't read too many tvdint pixiv fics in general

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.

Thinking of the Nie disciple that told Nie Mingjue it was Meng Yao who stayed behind to clean up corpses on the battlefield today.

Nie Mingjue didn't just randomly stumble upon poor lil meowyao eating bread in the novel, he was already looking for him to thank and reward him for his work.

That's what makes it so fun that nieyao's first conflict will end up being about someone else taking credit for Meng Yao's work.

And I'm sure that Nie Mingjue's actual opinions on plagiarism are a lot more nuanced, all we really get from him in this scene is "well you shouldn't kill someone over it!" which leaves a lot of room for what punishments he thinks are appropiate. But I bet that it isn't occuring to him in this moment that the only reason he knows Meng Yao at all, the only reason he got such a capable deputy, is that he noticed someone was taking care of the dead and cared enough to want to know their name. And then the Nie disciples didn't lie to him. The disciple he asked could have said "it was me, Zongzhu" to rise in the ranks himself, but he didn't. He went and asked others, who all also could have taken the credit, but they didn't. Someone saw Meng Yao working and decided to be honest about it and that simple decision is the catalyst for Meng Yao becoming Nie Mingjue's deputy.

Meng Yao can't just work hard to get results, others have to acknowledge that work. If they don't, it's as if he didn't do anything at all.

men love to try and tee me up for their next relationship while they’re still dating their current gf and i am never interested. NEVER.

Last post was phrased poorly and I deleted it out of fear of sounding Bad. To phrase it better: I wish I could talk about politics and people I don’t like here the same way I do irl. Too afraid of my digital footprint but just imagine what my opinions are based on what you know about me and the fact I’m a tumblr user (you will probably guess right!) and make it more violent

The downside of being a fan of The Boys that nobody talks about: it ruins horror movies for you. 😭😭 It makes you so desensitized that anything that happens in a horror movie, any violence or gore, doesn’t shock you or even creep you out slightly. You just sit there like “damn I’ve seen more fucked up stuff on the boys than this” 😭

normal thing to say about your dear friend who you think is really cute and charming and hard-working and basically the perfect wife material

I was watching this review of Idolish7 and the reviewer's closing comments got to me because, yeah. Idolish7 tells you that it's fine if your interest or love for something like music or media doesn't last forever while acknowledging also how sad that can be. But it tells you that you're allowed to be obsessed with a show or a song for a short period and you're not inconstant or evil or disloyal for it, nor that your love for it was fake because it didn't last in intensity as it started.

I don't know but I'm a big fan of the way i7 tackles topics about change and goodbyes (especially after pt 4 to 6.9), both on the audience's side and on the artist's side.
