and what if i fly?

matcha originated in China about 1200 years ago, açaí has been consumed by Indigenous communities in the Amazon for centuries, and Dubai chocolate was invented by combining chocolate with knafeh, an 1100 year old SWANA snack.

western (usually white but seemingly not in this case) people love to call nonwhite foods suddenly becoming popular in western mainstream culture "industry plants" as if they haven't always existed.

white person with a self-assigned japanese name (pet peeve i have btw. no one ever talks abt it but why is it always japanese or korean? It Could Mean Nothing). not much by itself, but with everything, yk

thought i couldn't be queer bc i was asian and gave me the dirtiest look when i said so. supposedly very progressive in terms of lgbtqia+ awareness

also didn't think i could be mentally ill! also as a person who is supposedly very aware and progressive in this area

applied good-student and strict parent stereotypes to me and proceeded to go trauma olympics on this imaginary me's trauma for a whole year. and i mean genuinely, they would bring up how much worse their everything is compared to my supposed life. i would give them nothing and they would still keep going

i was a good student BECAUSE i was asian

felt entitled to, as the most innocent and oppressed person ever, to take their anger out on everyone disimilar to them including me, not even mentioning their tendency for "humorous" violence

when ppl think of asians, they often think of the East (n that's probably where this person got their stereotypes for me) but i often feel voiceless being so nearby and yet ignored, and i am happy this blog exists 😭🫶

Friends, Tumblr, Countryfolk- y'all simply have not been around enough vocally Black and Indigenous people on this app because we call out the racism and white supremacy of the entire planet every other day 😭 I assure you discussing Argentina is not a unique situation. You are not being "uniquely targeted". We brought up Latin America, got fought by Latin America. We brought up Europe, got fought by Europe. We bring up the United States, we get fought by the United States.

United Front: Breasts Without the Airbrush

The shocking thing about Laura Dodsworth’s pictures of 100 women’s breasts isn’t the flesh on show, or the many shapes and sizes, but the realisation that images of unairbrushed, non-uniform breasts seem to be so rare. “We see images of breasts everywhere,” says the 41-year-old photographer, “but they’re unreal. They create an unflattering comparison but also an unobtainable ideal. I wanted to rehumanise women through honest photography.”

Cause everyone is acting like this is sooo great to see and it's not that it's not but also like are dark skinned bodies not worth showing or having representation too?????? Like how can you be truly representative of the average human body and not show all types of bodies. Instead of mainly just showing white or lighter skinned bodies.
