pick up that non-fiction book

"representation matters!" but you wont read or engage with non-fiction works about any demographic outside your own

this version of the post doesnt seem to be getting much traction but this is arguably the most important reason why we should be reading nonfiction in addition to fiction

👆 THIS 👆 👏👏👏

Calling ineterracial relationships toxic or fetishizing just seem like anti race mixing or racism with extra steps

Could you give me the names of those glitch Pokémon 👀

Oh my god. A dedicated wiki. It makes me so happy not to have to run into Fandom’s bullshit 😭

Believe it or not, it was even better when it was a dedicated site. I knew the guy who ran it a long time ago through a forum actually. Really cool dude. Sad to see the site go, but it's understandable.

History isn't written by the victors it's written by the guys who write stuff down

And who told them to do that, exactly?

Are you insinuating that only winners are capable of creating propaganda or writing history books because that’s kinda an ill-informed take dude not gonna lie

The US lost the Vietnam war and yet as an American, surprise surprise, most of the stuff I read about it or information I even have access to about it is from an American perspective. Most of the English language information out there is from the American perspective. In some areas of the country children are still taught that we won the war. Propaganda and history writing by the losers is not a new thing. Ramses ii of Egypt lost the battle of kadesh big time but he still built gigantic friezes saying what a great job he did. The victors aren’t always the ones with the gigantic war memorials and super widely spoken language.

My favorite brand of people are musicians who hear Rush Fucking E, which isn't technically meant to be played by a human at all, and immediately picking up their instrument and going 'bet'.
