PORCELAIN GOIRL

Because it's burning through the bloodline / It's cutting down the family tree

i think rammstein fits her very well. especially this song , that’s why i made some edits before posting it to here. gwen unfortunately didn’t see it , mission failed successfully. but that��s okay , there’s always next time , she has upcoming roles im sure !

all i could think of was a porcelain doll, a beautiful cracked piece of art. she’s just so perfect , i’m envious.

at this point it's clear someone involved in the creation of bridgerton s3 did not see a fat woman as a viable romantic lead, which is why we had a season of penelope begging colin for half-toothed scraps of affection; why we had penelope plastered in brutalist maximalist makeup instead of the soft, barely there naturalistic touches of daphne; and why we had half the season dedicated to thin girl hyacinth, because don't panic, gentle viewers, slight women still exist in this world! also polin's wedding song being yellow. essentially a colour symbolic of penelope's mistreatment by her mother and by extension society. nice bit of sodding micro-aggression that.

ugh. hated it. hated it all. it was so demeaning.

inept writers feeding as festering-rot meat doused in fatphobia and sexism and acting shocked when the season doesn't play well with women.

when i was in middle school i was just obsessed with having white skin. i googled a thousand things, went to the asian beauty store to get skin bleaching products. I took weird fkn lemon baths and stuff. And like i guess I never realized how fucked up that was?

Every time I come across the term porcelain skin I want to throw something. Bodily descriptions in books these days are much much better than they were when I was twelve but fanfic is still very much in the past. Obviously i’m not inserting myself in everything I read, I like to be like fifteen steps away from the story but someone exceptionally beautiful is always described with such white centric terms and often the stupid term porcelain skin. Its annoying and stupid and can we stop saying this dang phrase lol.

honestly gotta say i really love the fact that most of the characters that people simp for in yakuza have noses that aren’t tiny and conventionally (*by western/east asian standards) attractive like. good on us for having Sense

so uh. i am now obsessed with melanie martinez's k-12. if i ever make music, then it will certainly be inspired by her and (of course) will wood (:

For the longest time, I've been reading decades old paperbacks from 2006 to the late 80's and early 90's. I got them for free at a variety of garage sales and from a swap table back in March for national reading month. I really enjoyed a majority of them.

This past week I finished two that were published within the last four years or so and the whiplash I got seeing the introduction line for a character being "she dresses masculine but uses she/her pronouns" was. Odd. I can't tell if the line is genuinely clunky in context or if I'm too used to reading those old books.

The book in question was Ace of Shades. I almost didn't read past the first page because the author did that thing where the FMC is described as "petite" and "doll-like" "oh my gawd if she's not careful she's going to fall into my pores and die". that's enough to get me wrinkling my nose. I won't give away spoilers but there was one other thing that made me roll my eyes and viciously remind me why I don't read YA by authors I don't trust. But really, it's a pretty typical twist if you're familiar enough with the genre.
