its gonna get a little weird

Senkuu rambling about how keratin is a fascinating protein that can make all sorts of incredible structures and how human hair can be influenced in texture by all sorts of things while Kohaku is washing her hair with dish soap in the background

stories where memory is a character. stories where the past is alive and haunting you. stories where you are your own ghost

[ID: Stick figure drawing of someone laying in bed with a flushed, happy expression, hearts floating around their head. They have a thought bubble that says, "The Fictional Man beaten and bruised and bleeding and whimpering and". /end ID]

Thats the context for this meme???

I feel like I've been robbed the whole time. This is magical.

I'm dying

"I've never heard of Megan Thee Stallion before" if you've ever said any variation of "Hot Girl Summer" then congratulations you've benefitted from an internationally popular Black female artist's creativity

"I thought those were just memes" yeah y'all tend to do this to a lot of things Black people create and/or do, while conveniently cutting them out in the process. You should really consider how easy it was and why that is. I do have a suggestion.

It might bother me a little less (but not much) if I didn't have to log on and there's Random White Guy/White Girl #262849 that we're all apparently supposed to recognize as Pivotal Pop Culture, but Black artists who've been putting in work for years and actually affecting your entertainment in ways you don't even bother to perceive are somehow "just celebrities" that you missed. You're telling me I'm supposed to know who Jerma is, but Megan Thee Stallion is miss-able? Mmmm Something's Fishy...

Post isn't specifically about knowing Megan. It's about the constant theft of Black creation and erasure of its Black creators. That ever-relevant Delta Slim quote applies here (and PLEASE don't tell me you haven't seen Sinners if you're an American, I don't wanna know 😭)

good morning to the beaten and the damned only

if i ever wrote a character that was not meant to be eggy but the girls started telling me she's 100% a trans girl i wouldn't be saying "art is subjective, though He wasn't written with that intention" or any of that bullshit, i'd be saying "woohoo", "fuck yes", "this is the best thing to ever happen to me" and things of similar nature

have you ever seen a fictional male character that is obviously designed by straight people to be ugly as possible but you KNOW would be extremely popular with gay men???

Happy Pride

You ever think about many peices of media have zero women and thats just perfectly normal but if a peice of media has an all female cast people get... like that? Women should be allowed to kill over this btw

same but it's black people

That's right
