I think you’re absolutely right, and yes, there are other issues - including welfare and disability stuff that we need to also keep in mind. People with disabilities, specifically those on SSI disability, cannot have over $2000 USD in asset at any time. This is incredibly unfair! 

In many ways, fighting back against the system affects a lot of different problems. Police brutality is also a huge issue for people with disabilities - and those with disabilities are disproportionately affected by police violence! 

Absolutely - they’re all seaweed-based glitters which are eco-friendly and will not pollute the oceans! 

But for real though - plastic glitter is ridiculously bad for the environment and I’m wholly against it. 

W-what the fuck? Human is human regardless of how ‘mixed’ they are? Maybe I’m too white to understand…

he’s quoting neonazi talking points. later went on to say that people that practise race-mixing are destroying their own bloodlines, which is the end goal of all race mixing anyway which is a racist thing to do so who’s the REAL racists here????

honestly though, shit like this is kind of what i’m talking about by fringe movements snapping up the disenfranchised when they feel alienated by what any of us would consider to be their own communities. 

in a weird sort of way, i get it -- i’m mixed as hell too. i’m not black enough for black people to consider me a part of their communities, i’m not korean enough for the korean communities to want me around (don’t even speak the damn language properly), i’m an atheist, which tends to make spiritual jews uncomfortable (with the cultural aspect of judaism, something i do consider myself, dying out more and more as cultural assimilation progresses)... but abandoning any of these parts of myself won’t do me a damn bit of good, because i sure as shit don’t look white, so i’m hardly going to be able to integrate into that cultural identity and reap the rewards of belonging to any sort of established social majority, now am i.

like, imagine that one girl in your high school that claimed to be one sixty-fourth cherokee, only every other sixty-fourth you have is another tribe that you also aren’t enough of to claim to be and even remotely be taken seriously. 

so in the end, where does that leave people like me?

ready to be snapped up by eugenics movements as shields, apparently. this is what i’m talking about, with environments like these deliberately preying on the disenfranchised. isn’t it a shame you don’t belong anywhere? look at all those so-called tolerant leftists, full of in-fighting, yelling about cultural appropriation of a culture you’d be happy if anyone even acknowledged you had let along appropriated, leaving you out of their identity now that your blood isn’t as pure as anyone else’s. wouldn’t you have been so much happier if you could have claimed to belong to one single race? wouldn’t it be so much easier to explain to strangers? isn’t it so unfair that your parents had to dilute their blood and ostracise you from the moment of your conception? isn’t it great how there are all these nice people here that understand your pain, and not only have an explanation for it, but a final solution?

But now, I don’t know, there is the fact that is just seems tired and overly used just because I unconsciously half ass skim over the parts of the fics where the well fucked up, her reaction to a new world, etc. 

I get it! I do! But I’m already expecting it so I just skip to the parts that are different.

It just feels like we, as writers, could do more than ‘Kagome jumps into well and ends up in different place’. 

Crossovers are already AU’s/Canon Divergent, let’s go crazy with it! 

Kagome-Naruto crossovers touch on this a lot by having her as the biological child of someone in ‘verse. (Uzumaki!Kagome, Uchiha!Kagome, I think the rare Hyuuga!Kagome, I’ve seen a few Jinchuuriki!Kagome, Subaku!Kagome, Nara!Kagome, etc.)

C. Reverie has touched on it by making Kagome an Altean in a Kagome-Voltron or two crossovers. 

Beautiful Phantom ( @masquerabe ) has made a nice once-human-now-demon!Kagome (I believe, as much as I’m not interested in Black Butler, as a good friend, I try to remember details about fics) that is a nice twist.

RainLily13 ( @zefyre​ ) has done such a god damn breathtaking twist with Witch!Kagome in her Kagome-HP fic.

Sweet Cinnabun ( @peachbunniii ) has got some beautiful, I-will-die-for-every-bit-they-gift-me-with ideas concerning BnHA crossovers and Yuri!!! on Ice crossovers. (We both die over enthusiastic consent non-dystopian abo fics).

...

Yamiko: I’ll have to tell Kara about her, it’s been a while since I’ve even thought about her. She had great erudition, even among the other Mewtwo that I know, though her animus was still weak under my tutelage.

Hello guys, these r my Secret Santa projects for... cassielfbapyz!!!

Since I’m crunched for time, I decided to post all of my Kagome crossover fanart at once!

First is the wedding of Alucard and Kagome, then a dangerous proposal with Hisoka (based on mizukixtsukiyomi’s scenario), and finally a cute little comic of Kagome and Link (from Breath of the Wild).

A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.

sirikag! jameskag! fenkag! those have been my favs for a while now, i just really love writing and exploring their dynamic with one another! and more recently -- and most certainly not romantically -- lately i’ve been reading a lot of tony stark & peter parker fics aksjhsdkf i’m just a sucker for those dad & son stories, and there are *so so so* many amazingly well written ones i’ve read so far!

C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.

narakukag is a big big big and empathetic n o p e for me. ALSO tom riddle aka voldemort/kag -- can’t do it, won’t do it, cringe whenever i see it. lmao i could probably list a few more from the hpinu xover section but i’ll stop there

K - What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?

!!!!!!!! first one to jump to mind is tsukishima kei from haikyuu!!! started out thinking he was such a prickly prick and ended up loving him to pieces by the end of season 3! s2 and s3 especially has so, so, so many amazing moments for tsukki, i died. aaaaaa i still really want to write a tsukkikag fic *looks longingly at my pile of half-written scenes and ideas*

Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)

aakjshfs b e l l e how can u expect my indecisive ass to decide what to randomly ramble about DDD:

okay, okay, let’s see... dragon age? fenris! so, in da4 there’s a chance it might take place in tevinter or visit there and i know it’s a long shot but one of my dearest, deepest wishes of course is a fenris appearance, fuck i’ll even take a 3 second cameo pls bioware i’m beggin like god, can u imagine? i might die seeing fenris in those future graphics and hearing that voice once more, you know he’ll look good otherwise i’m suing 

pls, pls, pls, let him have long hair i have a need

also lmao, bc i like the pain, i rlly want to see like. the contrast i guess, between a romanced fenris after whether in da3 hawke died or not but lmao. i’m like 99.9% sure i’ll have to resort to fics for that. still. god do i wish
