Eyes on your Ethicals

if my trans positive art or angel art or my art just in general has meant anything to you at all please consider helping me out.

i've been struggling so terribly for the past 2 or so years, isolated myself, currently have something that hasn't been diagnosed yet that gives me so much fatigue that getting up and just moving around skyrockets my heartrate that I need to go to a cardiologist sometime this month for, and i would like to still continue my transition cuz I just started and I was so excited to. it was the only highlight of this year...

we need 700 to make the payment, please! anything at all helps, i know we're all struggling but even just rbing this helps.

it is so fucking unfair for disney to not properly promote this movie at all and for it to bomb so badly in theaters like it’s doing just because it actually had genuinely good poc and queer rep! i am SEETHING about how they intentionally set it up to fail and i can’t imagine how the people who worked on the movie feel!

please be loud about it! please go see it if you can, tell your friends to see it, post about it on social media, get it trending, get as many people to see it as possible!

After drowning in Encanto and Turning Red and Lightyear promos, and getting a decent amount of Raya promos - all films with prominent characters of color, including black women in Lightyear's case - it kind of seems like a specific slight to the one movie featuring an unmissable black/white interracial marriage and a biracial queer lead who, spoilers! actually gets an (also interracial!) romance on-screen.

I'm sure tumblr will be quick to attribute Disney's mistreatment of the film to the cute teen m/m subplot, but don't sleep on the interracial relationship aspect - it's not a fluke that the Respect for Marriage Act had to insist on protections for both same-sex marriage and interracial marriage. It's both! It's both.

Even looking to Disney's most famous interracial relationship that features a black person - namely Tiana and Naveen - they followed the same pattern as the movie Hitch famously did, by making the black character's love interest neither black nor white - black/black is seen as making the whole movie a "black movie," i.e. alienating white audiences, while black/white would be even more of a source of controversy than a black princess alone had been.

Now here we are, over a decade later, and Disney's still scared to promote a movie where one protagonist is in a black/white marriage and the other protagonist is that guy's biracial kid.

I just made a new sideblog and found out this setting is disabled by default.

This means that ALL new blogs will NOT have a [username].tumblr.com page. Not only that, but they will not have any themes besides the mobile-default.

As someone who really likes custom themes and Tumblr still having a fully customizable profile page, please turn this on!

You can make a website for your tumblr blog that is entirely your own!

Visiting your mutual's tumblr pages will become much more fun if they do the same! I used to always associate blogs with the themes they had , but that's sadly not possible anymore :(

If Tumblr themes die out, it will truly be an end of an era for the internet, and the future will hold only mobile-orientated, endless-scroll design devoid of personality.

Even if you don't like themes, this is a move that almost destroys Tumblr's origin as a blogging website and showcases the takeover of social-media-sameness.
