Can I just say, the whole argument on twitter of whether 'blackwashing' is wrong or not is so wild to me cause like

I grew up in the Aphmau fandom (unfortunately /j) and every mf there race swapped SOMEONE bc there were only like,, 3 black characters in mystreet or mcd or whatever. Like widely accepted fanon interpretations of characters included race swaps (and not just for black people, there were characters headcanoned as Asian, hispanic, mixed, etc. bc there were literally like 100 characters and maybe 5 were poc)

Like, I grew up believing race hcs were normal and fun (and I still believe that) and that type of shit honestly helped get rid of some of the self loathing racism I had subconsciously.

Then in like,, 2020/21 I heard ppl on tiktok were having issue with it, which I thought was ridiculous, and now this issue is back again on twitter (tho idk if it ever left, I was never super active on twitter)

Idk, I just dont understand how some ppl have so much hate that this is an issue

And yes I'm talking about that one dandadan black edit or whatever u wanna call it, it was literally so good. But now ppl are sending death threats to a literal 16 y/o bc.... Checks notes... They drew two characters black?? (They didnt even draw Momo as black, they made her hispanic)

And ik ppl are saying the issue is they're erasing Japanese culture but anime already whitewashes every Japanese character?? Like yes, they're technically Japanese, but growing up, I thought all anime characters were white bc they rlly dont have any Japanese features?? Not even a lil melanin, cause majority of east asians aren't paper white

Like, the issue surpasses race, it's also a matter of colourism bc I PROMISE U NOW if someone were to draw an anime character just SLIGHTLY brown, but they weren't another race, they were still Japanese, ppl would say 'UR BLACKWASHING!!!' and then hurl slurs at you.

Ok maybe thats twitter specific bc I've literally seen ppl draw Okarun with some melanin on here before and I havent seen any hate?? But like, just bc the character's brown doesn't mean they're no longer Japanese

For starters, blasians exist. Literally any raced swapped anime character could just be mixed. And 2, even if they weren't mixed, if a black person was born and raised in Japan, they're still Japanese, even if they have no Japanese blood. If they moved to Japan and lived there a long time and understand the language and culture and have fully integrated themselves into it, then they're Japanese too. Like?? What is so hard to understand??

By making Okarun or Momo or literally any Japanese anime character black, their Japanese culture hasn't been erased if they're still attending Japanese school, wearing Japanese uniform, following Japanese customs, etc. etc.

Idk how to end this I just wanted to rant ig

Also, in case it's important, I'm black👍

I think the funniest thing about the rhetoric that butchfemme is somehow heteronormative is that a lot of the things butches are called heteronormative for, men don’t even do.

Ultimately the resolution of Jason and Cass fights comes down to the fact that while he has his own ideals that don't mesh with the bats, Jason can be flexible. DC skipped the whole reconciliation with the family but while he's willing to kill it's generally a means to an end to him, not the whole entire point unless you're talking about Joker. Meanwhile for Cass the question of killing vs not killing is dead serious to her which means any time they're working together and things start going off track it's like:

Jason: Look if we kill this guy we send a message to his boss which makes it easier for us to negotiate with him from a position of power and I just think that-

Cass, snatching one of his guns and pointing it at her own head: Go on, pull the trigger. Kill him. Kill me. Go tell Batman that you let his daughter die to make a negotiation easier. He already let you die so no problem right? You think we should die? You think our life only worthwhile as part of a plan, just because we're killers? Are we doomed? Are we rotten to the core with no hope of redemption? Go on then, kill us and kill part of your soul alongside it. You clearly don't care for it so why are you even trying? Kill yourself along with us, come on Jason let's all just die right?

Jason, slowly backing away: I think you may be projecting a tiny bit so just. Calm down before I call the suicide hotline please.

Cass, slowly lowering the gun and knocking the random henchman unconscious: Yeah that's what I thought, fucking pussy.

Jason: Mm yeah you know what I hate you actually. Fuck this mission I'll just shoot you right now if you're going to be this annoying about it.

Jason, explaining things later to Dick: So I just kept shooting at her until I ran out of bullets and we both calmed down enough to call a truce. We tracked the guy down and didn't kill anyone but I did blow up the batplane just as a last minute screw you. Is she always this uh... intense?

Dick: Yeah, one time I broke up with Barbara and she threw me out a window. She's just like that.

The idea that some people hate Ezra is so bizarre to me. Like, you hate Jabba the Hutt? You seriously dislike the Emperor’s own nephew? Did Commander Brom Titus hurt you? Why you got a problem with Lando Calrissian? What’d Dev Morgan ever do to you?

Dude I need ppl to get real normal abt mental-illness born alterhumanity real fast

"Oh well alterhumanity is smth you're born w/ and there's all these rules !!!" No lmao

There are literally no rules, and I NEED ppl to stop spreading that false info online lmaoooo

Literally if you feel like an animal (nonhuman) in any way shape or form, then literally use the label.

Ppl irl will try their best to understand, and literally no one outside of the internet cares abt sum1's identity as much as you think they will.

Tbh just live true to yourself, and dude, shoutout to my alterhumans who are non-human in whatever way because of their neurodivergency/mental illness. I see y'all, and I love y'all.

i would like to discuss the coffee situation in the lighthouse.

this is the apparent coffee station in the kitchen. little coffee maker, a couple of unlabeled bottles of additives (i assume), and a bunch of cups including these cute little decorated ones that scream ren faire souvenir

oh and also: two giant open baskets of coffee beans underneath the table. (and a sack of Unidentifiable Brown, but let's ignore that for now because i couldn't get any good pictures of it. it's not the same texture, anyway, so i can't confidently say it is More Coffee.)

that's a lot of coffee beans. that is A Lot Of Coffee Beans for eight people, even if they make 3-4 pots a day. at least one of those pots is for lucanis insomnia purposes, a few cups are for neve to boil into a cognitohazard, and the rest of the team might have a cup or two in the morning, but i don't know enough of their coffee habits to say for certain. 3-4 pots is a generous estimate. so what do they have over 20 pounds of coffee beans for? are they using all of those before they go stale in an open basket? lucanis is a coffee snob, i refuse to believe he's buying all of that if he doesn't think they'll use it while it's still fresh.

But okay. benefit of the doubt here. maybe they've got some stay-fresh ziploc magic on it, and that's a month's supply for a greater amount of coffee per day than my estimates.

but wait. in the pantry. what's that?

oh my god it's an even bigger basket of coffee beans. what are you doing with 50 pounds of coffee beans. you are NOT using all that, this is more coffee than a party of 8 could even try to consume before it went stale in, again, an OPEN CONTAINER. i don't even want to consider whether those sacks next to it might have more, there's no way they could possibly have...

two more. giant baskets. of coffee beans.

there are more baskets of coffee beans in the lighthouse than vegetables. the lighthouse is constantly out of onions because the guy in charge of the shopping spends half the grocery budget on coffee beans. lucanis drinks 6 pots a day and his blood-to-caffeine ratio is 50-50. no wonder spite can smell colors.

Dear diary,

It has been 26 minutes since ao3, I try not to refresh too often knowing it will not help. I fear I will not live to see next winter. I’m starting to forget what the kudos button looks like
