Doing a deep dive in marjane satrapis politics in France in the last few years and guys...this is horrendous. She was friends with so many right wing politicians. Called out the French left as "antisemitic" all bc they didnt have a view on iran she didnt like.
Despite my support for iran against the US empire, I never believe in demeaning people like satrapi who have a more complex relationship with iran and was victimized in childhood by religious dogma. But at the end of the day her worldview was "theres fanatics and everybody else" without ever really questioning who the fanatics are, why Europe and America with false civil liberties would be concerned with the civil liberties of the mena region. Its so easy to fall to the liberal to neo to right wing pipeline when u never confront your worldview
Here she just regurgitates zionist propaganda that iran is the head of all these resistance groups
She said about leftist politician Melenchon saying his relationship to "hamas is quiet" and thinks hes an antisemite which is just lines repeated by right wing zionist media
She really just was at the end of her life a zionist idc about her earlier views when shes siding with the right wing and using her victimhood to platform views to continue to shit on my people and our resistance

Today's wasp of the day is the common tiphia wasp (Tiphia femorata)!

Also known as the "beetle-killing wasp" (which is a name that could refer to a lot of wasps) or the "large tiphia wasp". Now, being only a max of 15mm may not seem very "large", but for a tiphiid wasps that is actually on the larger end of their typical scale. "Common tiphiid wasp" is also certainly a fitting name as these flower feasters are a common encounter in meadows and gardens across much of the northern hemisphere.

remember like 15 years ago when black bloggers were talking about this exact shit, 'digital blackface', white internet users appropriating images and clips of black people and using them as cartoonish exaggerated expressions of absurdity or high emotion. straight line from minstrelsy to your reaction gifs and nobody fucking cares any more. white people just decided not to acknowledge it and it went away, just like every other time black users have ever tried to criticise any aspect of online culture.

““Angry Inuk” reveals the ways in which colonizers disintegrate Indigenous sovereignty through their good intentions to “save” others. This time, however, unlike the earlier colonizers who tried to save Indigenous peoples from so-called savagery through genocide and assimilation, the white animal saviours reproduce this colonial process (regardless of their intentions) by attempting to save animals. What many white animal saviours need to confront is a problematic drive to save every individual animal in denial of ecological realities and the necessity for some Indigenous peoples to kill other species for subsistence. White animal saviours should also own up to their unethical, institutionally racist practices of NGO campaigning.”

Until Dawn makes me uncomfortable...
...Not in a "this is good horror" way. In a "who gave you the fucking right to ruin our spiritual legends" way.
Some context, first: I am a Mi'kmaw person, and my people are among the Algonquians who have traditional legendary stories about ice cannibals. My people call them J*nuaq (singular: J*nu) also often anglicized as Ch*nook (singular: Ch*noo), but they are most commonly known under the Ojibwe name, W*ndigoag (singular: W*ndigo). Now that I've shared those names, I will for the rest of this post simply refer to them as "ice cannibals" out of respect for those who practice the avoidance of referring to them by name, which some people do and some don't.
Obviously there are variations among nations in how these beings are depicted, but I can guarantee you that this thing from Until Dawn...
...Is not very accurate. It may not be as bad as the whole antlers thing commonly tacked on by white horror writers, but ice cannibals are not stereotypical zombies either, or whatever the hell this thing is.
The ice cannibal I am personally familiar with is described as a giant, emaciated person with an icy heart and incredible Power. They used to be one of the People, but were transformed through either cannibalism or through an evil spirit. Now they are monstrous beings who kill and eat people.
But let's for a second pretend that Until Dawn is 100% accurate in its depiction of these ice cannibals. That doesn't change the fact that the writers, as white people, have no fucking right to even so much as touch these spirits in their story. Algonquian peoples have made it clear time and again that these beings are not for outsiders to fictionalize. They are not your cryptid. They are not your aesthetic. They are not anything that is yours.
And writer Larry Fessenden? He's a repeat offender. This motherfucker is obsessed with ice cannibals. He wrote the 2001 film W*ndigo. He wrote the racist 2008 Fear Itself episode "Skin and Bones" featuring them again. And his biggest claim to fame is Until Dawn, which of course, he pulls out the same shit a third time.
On top of all this, the whole "totem" collection theme in the game is more appropriative bullshit and a classic case of the Tipis and Totem Poles trope. Supposedly the mountain the story takes place on is a sacred place to the Cree in the lore of the game. And yet it's full of Pacific Northwest Indigenous totem-like things?
So anyway. I really don't care how accurate or inaccurate the upcoming film adaptation of Until Dawn is. I don't want anything to do with it, and I personally hope it flops.
"*X country* should colonize the US! Please nuke the US!"
You all will do anything to not give us our land back huh
Cultural Fashion: Hair Loopies
Dissecting the real life cultures that influenced show. First up is Katara’s trademark ‘do!
Hair Loopies
So this first fact actually comes from the Twitter poster, Low Arctic (https://twitter.com/LowArctic). The reference pictures used are screenshots from Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner (Inuktitut: ᐊᑕᓈᕐᔪᐊᑦ).
While braided hair is common in many cultures, Katara’s trademark “hair loopies” are uniquely unique to Inuit people in the land now known as Canada. According to Tumblr user Atagotiak, who is of Inuk descent, hair loopies are known as qilliqti in Inuktitut. While her “loopies” are drawn un-braided in the show for ease of animation, I’d love to see them thinly braided and decorated with bright blue beads in the live-action adaption.
Here is another examples of qilliqti or “hair loopies” in real life and Avatar:
The young woman photographed is Nancy Columbia, an Inuit-American beauty queen, actress, and screenwriter from the Silent Film Era. When I try to imagine Katara as a real person, she ends up looking a lot like Nancy.
Like what I’m doing? Tips always appreciated, never expected. ^_^

I see your “Rocky swears like a sailor but only in pitches humans can’t hear/refuses to teach Grace what those words mean” and raise you “Rocky swears like a sailor and now has to explain to Grace that ‘bad bad bad’ isn’t actually a sequence you play on your Eridian speech piano in polite company.”
Grace is both horrified and amused to realise that a more accurate translation for what Rocky’s been saying is “shit shit shit”.
Eridian government representative: Greetings Rocky, Saviour of Erid, and Grace, Saviour from Beyond the Stars. We are pleased to welcome you home.
Grace, haltingly on the keyboard Rocky built for him: Wassup bitches. Fucking jazzed to—
