Here's the thing about Lisa Frankinstien that people don't understand the movie isn't meant to be realistic it's a teenage girls fantasy of I will be super fashionable/pretty,have a hot boyfriend who will do anything for me and everybody whoever hurt me will die in a horrible way

fionna and cake comic I was enjoying had dark/complicated lighting for the first few chapters and then in the most recent chapter the lighting changed to super neutral normal lighting and. dude.

canon simon skintone colourpicked directly from his reference image vs the colour the artist chose for him in their comic.

is it really that tricky to see that he has brown skin? how can you watch every episode and somehow go ah yes. he is white. how does this even happen I do not understand!!! I'm genuinely just perplexed!

he spends 90% of the show standing next to fionna, who isn't even that pale but is still VERY pale in comparison to him!! I just can't wrap my head around it.

It's only a horror movie because as time goes on he becomes more and more Cole Sprouse

I can already see Sylus getting the Wyll and ascended Astarion treatment and I’m about to be so fucking sick. Please otome gods do not let Infold run with this and take this disrespectful shit in the future. They did outstanding with this launch😭😣

Gonna share badly translated panels from the official french translation because I can

I can’t verbally explain how much Akane ROASTED Aoi in chap 69 . He really took the ‘I am gonna end this woman’s whole career” to a next level

--> to explain the ‘you’re pretending you don’t know’

ITS BEEN HECTICCC

In the meantime, I got into college, moved to a dorm, moved back home (it's not really that far from my college), cut off and lost some toxic friends.

I have been struggling, not gonna lie. New people, new places, a small town girl trying to act like the rich city girls. It's been 5 months since I started college, and I haven't found a friend yet. Everyone probably thinks I'm lame and idk poor?

But their thoughts don't define me, right? Right?

It's been really bad but I'm glad I got 2 friends to talk to. We barely even meet, but hey, we still are close af.

I know I'm still a kid, but I've been lonely for so long, I'm tired. Living at my house (not a home) isn't peaceful or comforting, it's just chaotic and triggering. They try to act like it's alright, nothing ever happened... but the 9-year old me still remembers it. My inner child claws at my insides to be freed, to be happy.

I remember the days I was called gifted, a prodigy and what not. I remember how lonely I was even back then. I was never allowed to leave my house or even have friends. I remember, I was 10 or 11, and I asked my parents for a bike, I wouldn't ride it outside, maybe just in the yard. They refused because they thought I'd run away with someone.

I remember I was taken out for a walk in the yard like I was a dog. Mom never let me out of her sight, fearing I'd run away. Which is valid because all throughout my childhood and even now, I feel like running away.

My parents were paranoid, not in a way that's appropriate for a child. I remember the accusations, the slut shaming, the everything. And for what? For wearing shorts INSIDE MY OWN HOUSE? For simply talking to my male music teacher and being his favourite? For talking to my male cousins? FOR BEING CLOSE TO MY BROTHER?

I don't feel safe in my own home, I don't feel safe in my own skin. It hurts to just be.

I don't feel safe in my own home, I don't feel safe in my own skin. It hurts to just be.

Maybe that's why I stopped trying. I was never appreciated. Heck, I won national level awards and was never even congratulated by my own parents, they wanted more. They cared, yes. But they cared too much.

I was never ever good enough to be their child. They had issues with the way I talked, walked, slept, sat, stood, every fucking thing. It's so shitty to not be able to cry without being called a sympathy/attention seeker by your dad.

This rant was just a grain of sand in the sandbox of reasons I don't wanna live in my home.

There's ed, addictions, physical and mental health issues & abuse, sa, infidelity, sh and just borderline psych ward worthy acts in this family, but I still find myself trying to prove myself for them.

Why am I writing this? For my future self. For others who can relate to me.

But you got yourself, right? The only person you'll ever need? You got your delusional boyfriend, your anime crushes and that one celebrity you're way too obsessed with are there as your coping mechanisms.

Man, being lonely sucks ass

Like fuck, I do care about what you think, I do let it define me, I do change myself to fit into your visions.

But maybe someday, you'll find your own little paradise in a guy or a girl. They'll be your everything, your soul, your breath.

Maybe you'll find happiness. So I'd keep living. Not for myself, no. I don't have enough self esteem or respect for that. But maybe to prove them wrong? AND to someday find that someone who makes me want to be alive.

You're worth everything. You're not leaving, not yet. So big WOMP that you don't wanna live, shut it.

It was not your fault!

It was not your fault!!

It was not your fault!!!

It was not your fault!!!!

It was not your fucking fault!!!!!

I HATE GEGE AKUTAMI

[ehliena]

To people hating on "white" Damian...

This is a panel from Batman and Son (the Grant Morrison/Andy Kubert comic that introduced him officially as Damian Wayne)

See? Same skin tone as Tim.

And the Variant Cover:

I love brown Damian as much as the next person, but to frequently complain that he's always supposed to be brown is... well it's not how some people's skin work.

I headcanon that Dami is the type who can tan and tan nicely, but deprive him of frequent sun exposure (*cough cough* Gotham has smog and he's mostly in the Cave) and he gets pale.

Okay so it's almost midnight for me and I still feel wide awake so time to rant!

I hate how much I see Kaito whitewashed in art like it genuinely pisses me the fuck off because Kaito is tan yet I've seen art where he looks as white as milk and I haven't really seen other people talk about it that much so I just thought I'd spread the word because it's something I see way too often.

I love having a best friend with similar interests to me but it also means I have all these jokes about Lisa frankenstein that might not make sense to a general audience BUT the creature is literally soooo William pratt coded it kills us like that IS William Pratt if he was never but please hello can anyone hear me?

[acuar-io]

sometimes i see ppl make a "latino" sim and its very telling that they view latinos to look a certain way. Our community is very diverse! Its also just continuous erasure of Indigenous, Black, Asian latinos + multiethnic latinos.
