i've been asked where/how to find early-mid 20th century images of black people to reference when drawing/writing/whatever, so i figured i'd link to my own personal resource anyone is welcome to utilize! :)
with over 900 pins and counting, this pinterest board focuses entirely on black style from the 1800s - 1970s. itโs been harder than ever to research historical fashion without running into AI, misinformation, and flat out mislabeling of different eras, so iโve done my best to represent each period as accurately as i can.
iโve included sections for non-caricatured art and illustration, print media, music, entertainment, styling tools, and ads. there are also sections for period pieces and more modern takes on vintage style. i did not add the 80s and 90s because there's already a wealth of imagery and information about those decades, but maybe one day :)
*NOTE: i am not a professional archivist or historian! just a black american passionate about my history. as such, this board is heavily centered on black americans and afro-caribbeans, although there are photos from across the diaspora, including africa and the UK.
*additionally: pins on pinterest come from all over and may not always have the correct information, depending on who uploaded it. while iโve taken great lengths to research undated photos, some categorized pins are educated guesses based on the hair, fashion, or photography style of the photo. uncategorized pins are photos i canโt confidently connect to a specific decade without potentially mislabeling.
with this in mind, this board acts as a handy visual guide, but should be used in addition to your own research.ย happy researching! ๐ค

Chinese is one of those languages where curse words are so commonplace that they lose a bit of their bite, but nevertheless:
ๆ (cao): The good old "fuck". Common variants: ่๏ผ่๏ผ่น๏ผๅธ
ๆๆ (wo cao): "I fuck". Same as "fuck". Common variants: ๅงๆงฝ๏ผๆ่๏ผๆ่น๏ผๆๆฆ๏ผๆๅฑฎ่ธ่่ป
ไฝ ๅฆ (ni ma): "Your mom." Used the same way as "fucking" for emphasis. Common variant: ๅฐผ็
This brings us to the lauded "fuck your family members" series. Here we have:
ๆไฝ ๅฆ (cao ni ma): "fuck your mom." Common variants: ่ๆๅ๏ผๆนๅฐผ็๏ผๆไฝ ่ๆฏ
ๆไฝ ๅงฅๅงฅ (cao ni lao lao): "fuck your grandma."
ๆไฝ ๅคง็ท* (cao ni da ye): "fuck your great uncle."
*I have no idea why the great uncle is singled out like that. You usually only fuck someone you're a direct descendant of.
ๆไฝ ็ฅๅฎ (cao ni zu zong): "fuck your ancestors."
ๆไฝ ๅฆ้ผ (cao ni ma bi): "fuck your mother's cunt." Common variants: ่ๆณฅ้ฉฌๆฏ, cnmb, cnmlgb
้ผ (bi), or "cunt," is not considered a particularly strong word in Chinese. The cunt series also includes:
ๅป้ผ (sha bi): lit. "dumb cunt" i.e. "dumbass" or "dumbfuck". ("dumbfuck author, dumbfuck novel.") Common variants: SB, ็ ็ฌ.
็้ผ (niu bi): lit. "cow cunt", but means "badass" or "awesome". Common variants: NB๏ผ็ๆฐ๏ผ็็ฌ.
่ฃ ้ผ (zhuang bi): lit. "pretend cunt', refers to when someone is being pretentious or a poser. Basically "่ฃ ็้ผ". Common variant: ่ฃ B. (This is where svsss' "B-points" come from.)
And in the same vein:
้ธกๅทด (ji ba): "dick." Used the same way as "fucking" for emphasis. Common variant: JB
ๅฑ (diao): "dick/cock." Usually mean "badass." Common variant: diu
ๅฑไธ (diao si): "dick hair," or loser, douchebag, incel etc.
OK, I have to ask. Is there any connection between ๆ (cao) meaning "fuck" and ๆนๆ (Cao Cao) the infamous warlord from the late Han dynasty? Or is it just an amusing coincidence, like that one story about the poet who eats lions?
ๆ was originally just a substitute for the more explicit ่ (ๅ ฅ่=โto enter fleshโ) Idk exactly when using ๆ to say โfuckโ became mainstream; itโs a character that just happens to sound very similar to ่. Oddly enough there arenโt a lot of characters that sound like โcaรฒโ, and I feel like most of them have been used as a euphemism at some point. ๆ was the most popular one and over time it became the de facto fuck

This is a beautiful graphic but it doesnโt explain the pros and cons of each fire type.
The Swedish torch is good for an efficient and contained fire, itโs controlled and good for cooking over and produces less light and heat than other fires. It can be difficult to keep going once you burn through the original log
The teepee is your traditional campfire. Good for heat and light not great for cooking, burns through fuel fairly quickly
The star fire is one of the slowest burning and not well protected but provides an even heat good for slow cooking and is excellent if you have limited fuel and need the protection a fire can provide
The lean to is a compact and efficient fire that evolves into a dense and hot bed of coals. The structure creates a good source of air flow which can help damp wood burn. A slightly better cooking fire that isnโt as bright. It also provides protection from wind on one side
The platform fire is incredibly hot and will create a very thick bed of coals but it doesnโt have a lot of air flow and is a little harder to get started.
The log cabin is big and bright and has lots of air flow which again is good for damp logs. You can also use this structure to start a smaller fire in the middle while drying out bigger logs. This fire will crumble into a messier bed of coals that donโt produce particularly even heat for cooking.
The modified leanto is excellent if you need it to perform multiple functions. The side with more fuel will burn bright and hot and the side with less fuel will burn less hot but more evenly and controlled, this gives you different cooking options.
For starting a fire, the Log Cabin is probably one of, if not the, most consistent and reliable kindling setups. Itโs tighter packed and has more protection against wind than a teepee, but still has sufficient airflow to get a good ignition, and enough structural stability to prop up the bigger logs long enough to get them burning consistently.
"but they hate eachother" "this ship makes no sense" "that would never be canon" "they're only friends" "but one of them is already dating someone" "they'd be toxic together" don't caaaare I'm consuming media of them being insane about each other and falling in love in situations you couldn't fathom
You must understand- seeing this, with *these* tags
After the day Iโve had from someone with a good omens PFP sent me.
(No hate to OP Iโm just still reeling after the ending of GO and the fact that bee and Gabe werenโt on there or Crowley and zira also threw me - one ship went so hard in the fandom it became canon and one was so universally loved that it .. died? Then came back..? wtf-?)

One of the best things about being a writer is thinking of something small you can add to your work thatโs just. Devastating. Like youโre sitting there going. Oh. That would be diabolical. People would get really riled up about that. Exquisite. Letโs do it.
[Video description: A short clip from the show Make Some Noise. Erika Ishii, imitating Ebenezer Scrooge, points dramatically and yells, "You, boy! What day is it?" Brennan responds, "It's pride, bitch!" End description.]
Here's some of the notes, starting with the things multiple people brought up:
SHRIMP COCKTAIL:
banahbanah: #flashback to that one fic where Peter Parker frets about drinking shrimp cocktail because of the alcohol
generaldeliciousness: adding: what a prawn/shrimp cocktail is
#why is your character turning it down because they're under 21 #do you think prawn cocktail is a cocktail #this lives in my brain rent-free constantly #the rest of the fic was so normal #and good enough that i'll still re-read it #but bro
And then many, MANY, people wondering if this was actually authour mistake, since Peter really would do this!
POMEGRANATES:
zhajhassa: #haha where's that post that was like someone describing someone eating a pomegranate but they ate it like an apple
thornhands: #once someone wrote persephone biting into a whole Pomegranate #had to stop and stare at a wall for a minute
sungsingsanguine: I once saw someone very confidently write about a character eating slices of pomegranate.
FRUIT TREES:
zagreuses-toast: #given a very endearing glimpse into a writers blindspots by seeing them describe someone sitting under a ''pineapple tree''
salatrash: I remember something about picking watermelons... OF A FUCKING TREE
baander: #cranberry trees
DOUGH/BATTER:
maycelium: #I'm a chef so I'm really used to people not accurately describing how to cook food #But I was surprisingly flabbergasted when someone was writing making a cake and was kneading it. Which uh #Not necessary for cake. It was interesting for sure but just bizarre
livebloggingmydescentintomadness: #the one that drove me nuts was when a character set aside a batch of PASTA DOUGH 'to rise' #pasta doesn't have yeast!! #it does need to REST but it will never RISE #you do not want an airy crumb on your noodles
lovesodeepandwideandwell: #THE ONE WHERE THEY MADE COOKIES BY LADLING BATTER INTO A TRAY
Some other topics:
ANIMALS:
catenarwhal: #mandatory 'how cows produce milk' mention#i'll never recover from that one I fear
piromantic: #one time i saw someone fake their way through describing how spiders behave
pluto-lichen: horses
misskittypotter: #stardew valley faking its way through what fresh fish smell like
pa-pa-plasma: #saw someone faking their way through knowing what a seal is once #i still am fucked up over that one to this day. they just straight up did not know #& they were NOT good at guessing it either like it was clear they had never googled that animal ever #& was only just now realizing via answering questions from anons that seals are not!! what they assumed. initially
SEX:
dykevandyke: #what a prostate is #and where it is located #as in. external.
dreamyeyedrose: #I remember back in the ff.net days reading an Ichigo/Renji fic where the writer assumed the penises go inside each other #and I was like โI mean I don't know how it works for sure I don't have one but idk if that's how it worksโ
SOME OTHER FOOD STUFF:
thetrekkiehasthephonebox: #add another one to the list bloggers#this character is cooking a salad
shosta: #still baffled about the published work that didn't know food could freeze
sun-dari: #once i read a fic where the author didn't understand cinnamon
alto-tenure: #read something recently where the author was just. blatantly wrong about spices
dramatic-dolphin: #i saw someone try to fake their way through what ramen is once. like 14 years ago.#but i remember.#i was very confused about ramen for a few months. they were writing it so authoritatively.
the-celery-stalks-at-midnight: #i will never ever forget someone putting leftover fries in the microwave to reheat them and setting the timer for five minutes
typeghost: #this sparked a memory of a hannibal fic where the author had to fake their way through writing about gravy
draculin: #the one fanfic where the author knows about coffee only as a concept wrote a character as a coffee drinker#was very interesting#I don't remember the fandom or the plot but I was mesmerized by the coffee actions and choices
11235811235811: #there's a lot of faking their way thru congee in the svsss fandom i'll also note
fishali3n: #read one where the person clearly didnt know what tofu is
emmy-everafter: #in the aftermath of shadow and bone s2 i saw a lot of people pretending to know what stroopwafels are #babes they are more like cookies than breakfast waffles #like yes there is a waffle pattern but you're not gonna cut into a stack of them with syrup and sugar#๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
NON-FOOD STUFF:
red-umbrella-811: Shoutout to Dame Agatha Christie for faking her way through what a wrench is in a very popular published work.
bluebeetle: #once saw someone have a character put an entire phone book in their pocket
nonametis: #- sex talk in languages other than english #<- or just the petnames in a different language other than English
sadisticpony: #the fanfiction i saw this week where op DIDNT KNOW HOW AUTOMATIC DOORS WORKED #and that they arent in peoples homes!!! of course. also opening the automatic door for someone is unironically very funny but its not #its not like. grabbing the door handle to let someone in. helpppp
danmeichael: #reminds me of the fic with the figure drawing class where the character started with the feet. #i love you feet first figure drawing author
meowmix1100blr: #me watching this one fic absolutely obliterate what the board of directors does
vexedhexes: #one time i read an architect character making a doorway bigger by building a bigger door #what a beautiful world. #OH. also gravity falls fic where they go 'oh piedmont is in california so its warm all year round'
leveragehunters: #characters going to a beer garden #And it's literally a garden outside the pub#It was a very cute mistake
fitofpique: #yes! #grown men do not get blind drunk off two beers #but i am possibly guilty of the hypothermia one #assuming it does not make you very horny?
dadvans-likes: #always thinking abt the soup kitchen fic #the entire setting of the fic was 'soup kitchen' #and i very quickly realized #the author did not know what a soup kitchen was #and they thought that soup kitchens only served soup #fic
msmargaretmurry: #i love fanfiction #once read a fic where the characters played 20 questions #but the author seemed to not know how to play 20 questions and was just kind of winging it........ #immaculate
shakespeareaddict: #Look I know not all of us are hockey experts #But it takes about ten seconds of research or any attention paid to the show to realize #That the Stanley cup playoffs are not in fucking September
baejax-the-great: #the funniest one i saw #was someone faking what church is like #like 1. they really didn't have to write an entire church experience for their fic #and 2. they had clearly never even watched a show where people went to church #it was bonkers weird
twosunson: #things ive seen authors faking #knowing how to unclog a drain #knowing. literally any history #knowing what ketamine looks like (apparently- oregano) #(you know who you are)
waterhorseyblues-ao3: #beltane being celebrated in winter #wales being portrayed as a completely separated land from england (i wish) #characters getting up after weeks of bedrest like that dosnt completely fuck you up
violetfairydust: #i once read a fic where the flight time from london to seattle was 3 hours
purekesseltrash: One time, in a fic set specifically in Des Moines, IA, two of the characters casually drove 20 minutes to the ocean. The memory continues to delight me. I want to know where that author thought that Iowa was.
i fucking LOVE this dude (FLESH SIMULATOR is the name of his accounts). all of his videos are full of information and tips like this, and he always has loud industrial tone music mixed poorly over him speaking to make it impossible to create a clean AI copy of his voice.

just found out that there is a sudanfunds website! like gazafunds, it is a compilation of funds for people facing genocide
edit: i've added the correct link to this version of the post. if at all possible, please try to reblog this version or direct back to it. for some reason, the original sudanfunds link i put is now defunct. the correct site is still called sudanfunds and is now back up, and that's what is now on this version of the post. hope this makes sense
Ok I am again making up trans Sam headcanons but I keep finding things that kinda make sense for it (maybe I'm reaching but I don't care)
Watched Secrets again and Sam's dad is obviously kinda cold with her the whole time, he's going through a lot with his cancer diagnosis and all but still, shitty! But after he's blended with Selmak he's pretty immediately a lot kinder to her and I think if Sam IS trans and that's part of why her dad isn't great to her, a Goa'uld view on gender would really help him understand Sam being trans a bit more. The symbiote now living in Jacob's head spent the last 200 years blended with a woman, and he shares those memories. It might help him understand a lot of things?
Also the huge pressure Jacob puts on Sam to be exactly who he wants her to be, especially the "you've wanted to be an astronaut since you were a kid!" actually really fits this idea, he's looking for some kind of grounding that she's still his kid which is something a lot of parents of trans people do when they don't understand it all, trying to keep some kind of control.
Anyway I really like the scenes with Sam and her dad in The Tok'ra Part 2, you can see how weirded out she is by Jacob's personality immediately being a little different after the blending (amazing acting work from Carmen Argenziano btw) but he's immediately just a little bit warmer towards her and it feels like she's actually his daughter. It's not immediately, it does take a few more appearances, and that's good! You really get a feel for them slowly patching up their relationship over time.
And yeah I think it all fits really well with my own headcanon of Sam being a trans woman so I'm taking it!
Fully love and support this. Iโll be so honest tho when I started reading I had to very quickly figure out which Sam from which fandom was being talked about bc so many can be read as trans. And good for them tbh.
