I'm like a week late to this, but Ben Shapiro recently said in one of his videos "Stanford just said it's racist to say pocahontas. obviously, Stanford just said this because donald trump kept calling Elizabeth Warren 'pocahontas'."
uh... yeah... because that's really fucking racist. you shouldn't call people pocahontas. are you fucking nuts? how are you saying that racist name calling is good?
also, pocahontas isn't even her real name. she was born Amonute, and also used the more private name Matoaka.
as a white woman, I'm not really the person to tell you the story behind Amonute, and why calling people "pocahontas" racist. so listen to actually Native Americans and Indigenous People:
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/true-story-pocahontas-180962649/
https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2015/06/pocahontas-feminism/397190/
https://indiancountrytoday.com/opinion/stop-comparing-indigenous-women-to-pocahontas
(and yes, I know Elizabeth Warren isn't actually Cherokee. she has a small amount of Cherokee DNA according to a test, but as said by Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin, Jr., "Using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong". but it doesn't make trumps name calling, or Shapiro's defending it, any less racist. anti-Indigenous racism directed at Warren is still anti-Indigenous racism, because it also affects all Indigenous people)

it's very frustrating that when you do something mature---something that really demonstrates how much you've grown as a human being and adult---no full orchestra immediately appears in your kitchen to play verdi's triumphal march and/or an arrangement of tina turner's "the best" at top volume.

Absolutely adore how Marcille's entire spellbook seems to consist of only the most unhinged spells in existence. Like it seems like her entire magical arsenal is comprised of only the barest minimum of healing spells that she was probably required to learn in school, and then Fireball, Police Flash Grenade, Crime Against Nature, Spam Fireball, Unholy Resurrection, More Fireball, and 9th Level Go Fuck Yourself.

katsuki who loves nose kisses btw. who's been innocently doing them with you ever since he was small and who still does them now. it's basically a reflex. whenever you're worried for him, or he has to go off somewhere, he presses his forehead to yours. who looks you straight in the eyes with an unspoken promise to be safe. he nods, smushing his nose to yours and nuzzling it softly, almost shyly. and then he's gone again, cheek, ears and nose completely pink.

this doesnt seem like a popular opinion on here but sometimes i like when characters die. sometimes its needed to raise the stakes and sometimes its the end best befitting of the character and sometimes its needed to move the narrative forward and sometimes its the only way a character would believably leave their story behind and sometimes it just spices things up a bit. sometimes its fun to watch characters die . sorry
