white fangirl: *sees a black woman being respected and admired by a nonblack male character*
white fangirl: what is this hEtErOsExUaL bullshit!!!! god i hate forced romances!!!!!! 🙄🙄🙄🙄anyways take my 87382th white slash mlm ship instead! 👨❤️👨👌🏻🙌🏻😍
who is elicia donze? just one of the most amazing and inspirational pop artists in this current time.
a prevalent yet underappreciated and absolutely slandered fan artist for the spn fandom, she’s a master at not just realism but adding a touch of whimsical beauty and etherealness in everything she does.
her job opportunities are and have been sabotaged by spn fans for years. how many years? over 10 years. i wasn’t a part of her followerbase until a few months ago, but just so you know she goes through so much fucking bullshit every day. just the usual death threats and lost job opportunities and panic attacks and so on that she’s had to manage for longer than i’ve been in school!
she struggles to make ends meet for herself and her two cats, and she’s got pills (? i don’t know for sure, she is mentally disabled though) and bills to pay for. wanna help? here is her kofi, her artstation, and her website.
she also has an instagram & facebook, both of which with descriptive captioning.
can’t give her money right now? then follow @eliciaforever and reblog her artwork, reblog the bullshit she has to put up with, listen to what she says. like, actually listen. tell people about elicia. tell people about her art. elicia knows she’s good. she’s a fucking legend. but people don’t seem to like women artists who know their worth, so might as well flaunt it as much as possible.
and also, if you know people who can spare some change,
here is her kofi, her artstation, and her website. she also has an instagram & facebook, both of which with descriptive captioning.
a third time. just so you all know ;)
this post made me and my gf go back and watch the oscar-winning movie happy feet. i looked up the director, george miller, and found out happy feet is only his SECOND most profitable franchise. he is best known as the director of all the mad max films.
to present some information for those who have not seen happy feet: the penguins are animated, but the few humans in the film are live-action. the film has two main messages: accept those who are different than you, and a pro-environmentalism message about stopping ocean pollution and overfishing. spoilers for this 13-year-old movie, but it ends with the main character managing to get the humans to stop polluting and overfishing through the power of dance. meanwhile, mad max is a postapocalyptic series.
so… i propose a theory. happy feet and mad max take place in the same universe, but in different timelines. in the good timeline (the happy feet canon), mumble convinces the humans to stop destroying the earth using the power of dance. this leads into happy feet 2. in the bad timeline (the mad max canon), mumble fails to convince the humans. the penguin colony dies out, humans destroy the earth, and the mad max movies happen a few thousand years after happy feet 1.
It’s genuinely worrying to me how often white supremacist misogynist dudes have a weird Viking obsession. The Vikings did not agree with you. Stop dragging the Vikings into this.
Right-wingers: We should treat the Muslims like the Vikings did! Me: You mean travel thousands of miles to strike up profitable trade deals with them in their own countries and establish mutually beneficial business arrangements? Right-wingers: Wot?
it’s like super fucked up that a teenage boy who wears makeup for a living has become the target of ceaseless, aggressive, widespread harassment, and everybody pretends it’s completely justified (as if literally anything “problematic" a literal child could have said or done would warrant this endless barrage of concentrated hate) and not just the socially sanctioned opportunity to bully the fuck out of an effeminate gay kid that it so obviously is
consider taking white twinks off a pedestal and understanding that male gender nonconformity has been performed publicly by men of colour for decades and sometimes when someone gets made fun of or called out they like just deserve it
not to mention how he’s like unapologetically mainstreamed and profited off of black and more specifically black lgbt culture considering aave makes up like a solid half of his “brand”
Not to mention a white man getting rightfully criticized for being racist is not “aggressive ceaseless harrassment” and it’s interesting how these criticisms are being described as that when Black and brown LGBT people are the main ones being vocal about their criticisms but you know whiteness has an egregious way of painting people of color as aggressive for daring to voice an opinion against a white person of any sort of marginalization 🤷🏾♀️
Of himself in front of the things that inspired them
And he just makes me so happy
Because he has such great talent
And he is everything I want to be in life
You go, Sam. You live your dreams
thank u
A+ quality blog content.
A perfect human.
TWO shark sweaters
This is like, double art.
I’m a pretty experienced knitter and even one of these sweaters is an impressive accomplishment. I’m kind of flabbergasted right now. Sam is killing it.
the level of skill, and then the photos themselves in which Sam is wearing a jumper that goes with the theme of the photo?! 10/10
