I’m going to say this on the Osiris skin tone matter:

If you are an artist and you do not do your due diligence in drawing skin tones, then you should be criticized for it. Especially when there are countless resources available to sample from.

I’m seeing people defend an artists decision to leave Osiris’s skin tone pale white when he is canonically not white. He is Egyptian. He is middle eastern. His skin tone is able to sampled from a variety of official examples, including model renders from bungie artists.

If you make this mistake, it’s not the end of the world, just fix it! Go “I made a mistake, let me correct it.” And move on. To double down on keeping the skin tone light and boldly claiming “I don’t intend to fix it,” when people tell you that you made a mistake, that’s bad. That’s perpetuating the very real and very racist problem of whitewashing characters. And let me be very clear here: Just because you are a person of color does not make you exempt from perpetuating racist tendencies towards other people of color.

And if you defend said artist and others who make that mistake, tell them they did nothing, tell them it’s fine and it’s okay because the art is cute, let me be the first to tell you: you’re being a god damn idiot. You should not, under any circumstances, jump to defend rightful criticism about whitewashing.

If you make the mistake. Own up to it.

I’m certainly not going to pretend I haven’t made this mistake in the past. I have, and I’ve learned from it. You can too.

So…. rolling into mid-2020 like it’s 2015? 

 The gag that Thorin doesn’t know Bilbo’s name is based on this wonderful fic by @andhumanslovedstories   and you really really should read it!
