Well, that was anti-climactic.

i’ll be real, kitten, daddy needs multiple wealthy and powerful folks to die in a painful, drawn-out, and generationally humiliating manner

despite everything, it’s still you (derogatory)

There are multiple chapters that are set in hospitals where the characters are attempting to recover from injuries that never fully heal. I must once again stress that my experience in WWI was perfectly normal.

There is a giant horrible mudplain full of unrecoverable and perfectly preserved dead bodies that the characters have to walk through in a land where the air is poisoned gas, and on a compLETELY UNRELATED NOTE: WWI WAS TOTALLY FINE AND NORMAL!!

[ID: A tweet and a reply. First is by @.Vickcantmiss, with an image of a Black man behind text reading, “iCarly was right. Live life… breathe air… I know somehow we’re gonna get there”. @.eurydicejones replies, “this is my least favorite kind of meme/joke because the humor is entirely reliant upon a juxtaposition with blackness itself”. End ID.]

Do you know that the "gotta be one of my favorite genders" meme is just a truly random black man's selfie that some transphobic white gays shared in a group chat a ton? I think about it alot.

There is a type of very normalized popular humor that is quite literally just Black people existing “juxtaposed” with something that’s meant to be contradictory to…a Black person existing. Many will pretend that’s not the joke, but it is. The contrast between the Black man and shouting out a “favorite gender” being seen as conflicting is the joke. And it’s not funny. This is in the same vein as the running gag where some white people will go to a rap/hip hop show and do something like play chess in the crowd. The joke is “haha look at the juxtaposition between this Very Black thing and this Very White thing! Isn’t that hilarious? We’re so different this doesn’t even make sense xD” and these jokes suck, especially in the context of this meme in particular where the “very White thing” is….appreciating other genders. and the fact that when Black people try to talk about anything like this we are usually met with “it’s not that deep” is also a part of the problem. Anyways!!!!!
