I'm not explaining why re-imagining characters as POC is not the same as white-washing, here of all places should fucking understand.
#personal#delete later#no patrick. “black washing” is not as harmful as white washing.#come on guys get it together#seeing people in my reblogs talk about “reverse racism” and double standards is genuinely hypocrisy#say it with me: white washing is intrinsically tied to a historical and systematic erasure of poc figures literature and history.#it is an inherently destructive act that deplatforms underrepresented faces and voices#in favor of a light-skinned aesthetic hegemony#redesigning characters as poc is an act of dismantling symbols of whiteness in fiction in favor of diversification and reclamation#(note that i am talking about individual acts by individual artists as was the topic of this discourse. not on an industry-scale)#redesigning characters as poc is not tied to hundreds of years of systemic racism and abuse and power dynamics. that is a fact.#you are not replacing an underrepresented person with an oft-represented person. it is the opposite#if you feel threatened or upset or uncomfortable about this then sorry but you are not aware of how much more worse it is for poc#if representation is unequal then these acts cannot be equivalent. you can't point to an imbalanced scale and say they weigh the same#if you recognize that bipoc people are minorities then you should recognize that these two things are not the same#while i agree that “black washing” can lead to color-blind casting and writing the behavior here is on an individual level#a black artist drawing their favorite anime character as black because they feel a shared solidarity is not a threat to you#i mean. most anime characters are east asian and i as an east asian person certainly don't feel threatened or erased. neither should you.#there's much to be said about the politics of blackwashing (i don't even know if that's the right word for it)#but point standing. whitewashing is an inherently more destructive act. both through its history of maintaining power dynamics#and the simple fact that it's taking away from groups of people who have less to begin with#if you feel upset or uncomfortable about a fictional white character being redesigned as poc by an artist on twitter#i sincerely hope you're able to explore these feelings and find avenues to empathizing with poc who have had their figures#(both real and fictional) erased; buried; and replaced by white figures for hundreds of years#i sincerely hope you can understand the difference in motivations and connotations behind whitewashing and blackwashing#classic bixels “i'm not talking about this chat. i'm not” (puts my media studies major to use in the tags and talks the fuck outta it)

something i did when i saw a post of joku talking about this topic: it's an interesting concept but practically impossible because nothing stops artists from continuing to create (this is convenient for ink), based on this i tried to adjust the words of the creator of dreamtale herself to her characters under an objective truth— there is no limit to the multiverse
here's the post and the translation
#i believe joku said this 'cause of the truce comic#error mentions that multiverse thingy just at the start of the comic#and talks about it again when creators destroyed their own creations#honestly i didn't notice this until now but#all that is replaced by another statement said in the uvs prologue#error goes from “those universe were erased because the multiverse reached its limit”#to “those universes were erased because their creators understood it's a waste of time”#that is surely more in character#so yeah. it's a fact error doesn't even care about the capacity of the multiverse#joku knows very well underverse doesn't fully follow every canon#she said nightmare acted quite ooc in 0.6#undertale#undertale au#utmv#dreamtale#dream sans#nightmare sans#error sans#ink sans#fluffy rambles

Doctor Who "Rogue" memes
I've made memes. enjoy.
(contains slight spoilers)
firstly, ones that are more encompassing:
regarding the episode itself:
and finally, Captain Jack Harkness stages of grief:
#doctor who#memes#the “salute the sky” one is my favorite#he really did just put his ship in orbit and went oh well the bitch is gone#poor fifteen may be apparently more healed but he has no idea how to deal with emotions other than cry and then ignore them#but we love him he's trying#also I thought those psychic earrings were soooo stupid but at the same time I loved them#like that was a classic “a bit silly but it works” doctor who thing#also this is the second time I've seen male presenting gays ballroom dancing and I am thriving#the other of course being aziracrow#I wanted to make a meme for that too but wasn't sure which to use#my memes#original post#rogue#doctor who rogue#rogue doctor who#the doctor#ruby sunday#the doctor x rogue#p.s. to clarify ik they're not actually erasing Jack Harkness it's just they're very clearly ignoring him completely and Rogue seems#somewhat like a replacement although he does have differences and I love him very dearly#also I put gay in quotes because the doctor is genderfluid/nonbinary and is simply at the moment male presenting and it didn't feel right#to somewhat diminish their identity by simplifying it - like how aziracrow are called gay and that's great but they're more complicated#than just that label#yasmin khan#yaz khan#fifteenth doctor#thirteenth doctor#fourteenth doctor

i said it over on twitter but i‘ll say it here too! it‘s crazy to me that not even smth as little as a bit of banter about meljay can stay exclusively about meljay w/o being co-opted by jayvik or meljayvik at some point? like imagine i‘d go to a jayvik screencap tweet and comment "aww that‘s how he looks at mel"… that would get me ripped to shreds.. like the times i had comments or tags on a meljay post trying to swap her out??? wdym you‘re (figuratively speaking) swapping mel out on the mel post?? at this point if they actually do the pregnancy plot i‘m just gonna call it now and say general fanon will be vik raising mels child while she runs off to be evil woman™
#kds.txt#arcane#meljay#onlymeljay#sorry for ranting but i feel like#no fandom has made it its goal to completely erase the woman that is right there in the picture#and replace it w smth else#im talkinh quite literally about the little spoon screenshot#but honestly that sentence works in a wider general sense too#idk man its just exhausting when youre excited to look a little and read a little about the ship you like#only for people to use it as an opportunity to make it about smth else instead#maybe engaging w fandom was a mistake asdgjhsfk

Okay I just woke up and I had the most ridiculous dream.
Somehow the aftg fandom had set up a tiny con and Nora was there. And she announced she was turning aftg into a series about horse jockeys??????
#it was insane and everyone was like what the FUCK are you talking about.#but she had new editions of aftg where the covers were horse related and exy had been completely erased and replaced with horse racing?#everyone was STUNNED.#also met some of you guys there though so that was the nice part of the dream so :D#like i don't think my brain correctly guessed what y'all look like but. it was fun#except for the... horse thing...#diaerie

I think the whole issue I have with Howl's character in HMC movie can be outlined in one brief sentence:
"You can't write Howl Pendragon without writing Howell Jenkins"
#and that's basically it#yeah he was also made in a bland perfect ver of himself BUT#that's also kind of a part of erasing his whole story#and replacing his own character#IT'S JUST#his nationality his life his education his love for his family#the difference between his reputation in Ingary and in Wales#HIS QUIRCKS OF ADAPTING OR REFUSING TO ADAPT TO MEDIEVAL SOCIETY#his early life his damn PhD the expectation that were on him#his overall vibe even#IS SO tightly tied to his origin and backstory#that by erasing or changing it in any efficent way#you destroy the character entierly#yeah he's good#but he's not well himself anymore#by adaptation#means#hmc book#howl's moving castle book#hmc#howl's moving castle#howell jenkins#howl pendragon#howls moving castle

If I had to pick any Batman character to return after being forgotten it'd be Bette Kane. (Helena Wayne already has been replaced by Bertinelli and Lance is just like. What do you do with that concept)
Like I know she hasn't been forgotten forgotten but she's even less popular than Harper, and as much as I love Harper I have to admit being less popular than her is pretty much a death sentence for a character. Especially with the attempts to erase her and replace her in the past (killing Kathy and replacing her with Kate, creating Barbara, giving a Robin a sassy blonde love interest/rival vigilante). It's honestly a miracle that she's still here.
But like as I mentioned in a previous post, she was the first Batgirl with Dick Grayson's Robin. Then he became Nightwing and she became Flamebird (granted in the comic lore it was a whole set of events but yada yada). I could go on a tangent on her personality and reasons to love her but simply put: Nightwing and Flamebird are twin gods. Neither was ever meant to exist without the other. Give Nightwing his Flamebird. Make them buddies again PLEASE.
#ill often see a post of someone being like “dick should get a Flamebird sidekick” and its just like BETTE#SHES RIGHT THERE. SHE WAS HIS FIRST PARTNER. SHE WAS BATGIRL BEFORE BARBARA. SHES FLAMEBIRD#i just hate that shes been forgotten so much. thats like if jay garrick or alan scott got replaced and then just erased instead of becoming#legacy characters#bette kane#betty kane#batgirl#batfamily#batfam#the wayne family#dick grayson#robin#nightwing#flamebird#dc comics#batman

desperately need people to understand that alicent is a victim but she’s also an abuser and a perpetrator
that she actively makes choices to harm other women because of jealousy and envy and the greed deep in her bones because submitting to suffering didn’t get her what those women fight to grasp for themselves.
she is absolutely a victim, in show.
that doesn’t change that she abused rhaenyra and her children, her own son, most likely helaena given how she flinches every time her mother touches her, and is actively weaponizing the patriarchy of westeros against other women- rhaenyra primarily, but also mysaria and dyana.
she isn’t the moral, righteous force of good that even she thinks she is, she’s a wounded woman directing all of the rot, pain, and fury inside her at the wrong people and forces.
#anti team green stans#anti team green#anti alicent hightower stans#i don’t wanna say it’s anti alicent bc honestly it’s more ‘accept her for who she is bc she’s so much more complex and interesting when you#but i made this bc someone genuinely tried to say that the reason people hate her is that they don’t see her as a victim#most rational people know show!alicent is a victim#it’s the point that’s she’s an abuser as well#that makes them dislike her#that she’s a hypocrite and a traitor#i don’t even like young alicent bc i don’t at all think she was a good friend to rhaenyra#‘it’s not your place to question the plots of lords and men’ to the named heir#dismisses rhaenyra’s hopes and idealism entirely out of hand#is baffled that rhaenyra is more worried for her fathers happiness and mother’s wellbeing than her position#she knew as early as ep 3 that otto was conspiring against rhaenyra and never told anyone#condemns ‘targaryen customs’ only to wed her daughter to her son even younger than she was when otto dangled her before viserys#acts entitled to rhaenyras secrets whilst condemning and judgemental even though she did not give rhaenyra that same courtesy#made no attempt at apology for the insensitive comment of aegon’s birth#though rhaenyra DID try to apologize for the ‘imprisoned in a castle’ line and tried to comfort her#uses her power as queen to push past the space rhaenyra is trying to create because she feels heartbroken and betrayed#rhaenyra took part in alicent’s culture with prayer at alicent’s urging because she cared about alicent and alicent was trying to help her#alicent is never once shown to return that favor instead condemning it for ‘queerness’ and growing to later#erase and remove all targaryen and valyrian heraldry from the red keep to replace with her own#like alicent is a victim and i DO have empathy for her. but i don’t like her and never will#especially not after the way her stans behave#she deserved better than otto’s machinations and viserys’…. viserysness#but that can also be true whilst i condemn her actions and behaviors

new leo yippee
#mine.art#leowook#hes still a penny world of gumball rippoff inhabiting a doll just a Little bit more thought out this time#his ''tattoos'' are the same magic ink as the one used for his talisman#he can erase them whenever he wants but doesnt see a reason to do that rn#hes also ambidextruous which is why neither of his tattoos look like scrawls#he only really tattoos the underside of his arms so if theres any tattoos on the upper side its cause of other ppl#his right arm has no upper side arm tattoos cause the apo were never close in the first place#and minute is too hesitant to start randomly drawing on leo's arm despite how close they became#and clown doesnt really think about it so he only really tattoos leo when he sees other ppl do it first#he also has leg tattoos but i cant really think of a design for them#several of his ''body parts'' have been replaced but his headand left hand is still the original#he can copypaste things using the ink since its basically an enchantment so hes not too worried about losing his tattoos#but he cant replace the wound he made during the mob blood pact so its staying there#he hasnt changed his head cause of a combination of laziness and being unable to find a replacement he likes

icons and headers of Wanda Maximoff aka the Scarlet Witch in Scarlet Witch #10 (2023) with art by Lorenzo Tametta. please like or reblog if you save, and please give credit if you use!! folks seemed to like the last set I put out, so I figured I’d post the edits I made from the latest issue too :D
once again, here’s a friendly reminder to any Elizabeth Olsen stans who come across this post that Wanda Maximoff is Jewish and Romani and was whitewashed in the MCU :)
#saw that the comic dropped#sat down and did these all in about two and a half hours flat#marvel#marveledit#marvel icons#wanda maximoff#scarlet witch#scarlet witch icons#wanda maximoff icons#jewish wanda maximoff#romani wanda maximoff#scarlet witch (2023)#ari does edits#listen. sometimes self-care is drinking water or taking a nap#but sometimes it’s staring at images of your favorite character for hours as you erase the background to replace it with pretty colors :]

patch notes for patch #7
gortash no longer recognizes the dark urge
gortash's name is no longer "sickeningly familiar"
Orin will no longer comment about DU's relationship with gortash, so that it can better be "left to interpretation"
Wyll has been replaced by a slightly smaller Astarion
#bg3 critical#im salty. maybe its a bug. it COULD be a bug.#but larian broke trust already with the peartree letters that they removed/replaced without comment.#which im sorry but erasing a queer character's sexuality is homophobia. you can do homophobic things unintentionally.#enver gortash#okay time for me to take a deep breath and grit my teeth and move on.
