i borrow happiness from tomorrow

my tag on that gifset was mainly in reference to rhaenyra and mysaria who are both canonically bisexual in hotd but yeah actually daemon is basically bisexual. not strictly canon, but matt smith plays him and matt's never played anyone straight except for charles manson so

truly idk. all because i made a post years ago saying i hate taylor swift cos she bullied olivia rodrigo. tumblr is just like this sometimes😭

I appreciate English may not be your first language. But you should know saying this kind of thing dehumanizes, infantilizes, and generalizes Asian women, which is racist. Even if you mean it in a positive way, it's racist. These messages are an uncomfortable and totally unnecessary response to a post I made years ago. I answered you out of politeness, but I'll be blocking you if you send more.

"it's this whole thing! [makes huge sweeping generalisations about a (dubiously defined) racial group to justify an odd, unfounded opinion about a celebrity and doesn't see how that's racist].

yes sure..... but you, anon, using various "cultural stuff" as you put it to assert assumptions about Olivia Rodrigo's maturity just because she's Filipino (btw you don't know whether she even partakes in these things, you're assuming based on her ethnicity) is at best a little weird and at worst racist, even if you mean it positively.

well....that's good to know, thank you for sharing 👍

As to your last question, I'm not sure I understand quite what you mean, sorry. I think any of the characters mentioned in my original post, including Jack Sparrow himself, were balanced out and well written in their original forms when they weren't their story's protagonists. I also want to acknowledge that a lot of this is subjective. You can find plenty of ppl disagreeing with my examples on the original post. Ppl also reblogged it with examples I didn't agree with. I don't want to imply that every interesting non-main character who's made a protagonist is a disaster (comics industry is built on doing this very skillfully), but I wanted to highlight the big reason that goes wrong when it does is almost always cos you're trying to make a circle into a square, and you're not changing the story enough. But also some eccentric, flashy side characters can't be protagonists without losing the essential aspects of what made them great. Anyways, I hope that answers your questions!!! Thank you for asking. Have a lovely day 🥰
