Time To Overreact Over Fiction

SAVING FACE (2004) dir. Alice Wu

Don’t get scared, don’t get annoyed, follow the dog! If it had been an emergency situation, I could have vomited and choked, I could have hit my head, I could have had so many things happen to me. We’re going to update his training so if the first person doesn’t cooperate, he moves on, but seriously guys. If what’s-his-face could understand that lassie wanted him to go to the well, you can figure out that a dog in a vest proclaiming it a service dog wants you to follow him

And for fucks sake if they’re making/showing you something from their culture fucking act like you realize the importance of that, that they’re showing you shows they grew up with or making you food they made with their families, that they’re letting you in and trusting you more than other whites in their life.

Racialized people are constantly waiting for the other shoe to job. Constantly waiting for their "antiracist" white friend to decide they have learned all they need to. We need you to ask. We need you to care enough to be proactive literally at all. Stop asking us to trust you without doing any fucking work to prove you are trustworthy.

But we all need to remember that this motherfucker blushed and stuttered when an older woman so much as batted an eyelash at her. She’s got as much game as Luke Skywalker going to Toshi Station to pick up some power converters. She’s amazing. Losergirl representation.

Lord of Barovia by Tatiana Krstic

Cosette is one the other end where all she is a woman. She is coddled and not allowed to make her own decisions, this critically comes to a head at the end of the novel when Marius and Valjean conspire to keep the secrets of Valjean’s past from her. Éponine on the other hand is forced to make decisions that she shouldn’t have to as a sixteen year old like “where am I going to sleep tonight?” and “how am I going to get food?” She has a level of freedom that Cosette will never get, much like the male gamins who are free to roam around Paris as they please, but it is a freedom born of desperate circumstances. She can make choices but all her options are bad ones.
