of course this is not to imply that any of the people involved here - zendaya, margot robbie, or emma chamberlain - had any sort of malicious intentions. but the ignorance is just as bad in my opinion. the ignorance is just as harmful, if not more. because it means we are not even an afterthought. it means that the real people and histories and heritages of the global south do not even register when these people are putting together looks for their movie premiers and met gala appearances. everything is just reduced down to a shiny piece of jewelry whose history they need not bother with. it's just a continued reminder of the way colonization affects us all even long after independence, of how barely-healed wounds keep being reopened even decades later. even now, we are being denied connections to our histories and heritages while they are freely being given out to those that have nothing to do with it and don't care for it. and i'm sick of it.

i think they have a crush on each other

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE 3.06 "Montreal"

"I told Nicki that I loved him. From the first seconds I saw him in Paris. That I was drunk with his love. I was engulfed by it. Your maker would tell you I was being kind, but... in the moment the words were true. I think."
