Okay hear me out-
(Just a note i dont know how common this "hc" is cus I haven't roperly interacted with a fandom since I was like 13 I have no idea wtf you guys are doin up in there)
(And no, writing fanfiction on ao3 and occassionally talking to commenters doesn't technucally count.)
what do you think about digital blackface as in white people frequently or even exclusively using reaction gifs showing black people that would fit the extreme/over the top behaviour stereotype and thus serving as hyperbole for white people to put on like a costume to extend their personalities online?
(There’s a short thing that I wrote on this already here)
Something I’ve been thinking about in the past few days and since that Teen Vogue essay brought the conversation to the fore, is that this conversation has been happening for a long time on the Internet in different forms. Perhaps we haven’t been able to succinctly name the problem as “digital blackface,” but even then I see the problem as deeper than a practice, which is perhaps why after all the critical energy black people have expended explaining the nuances of the problem to non-black readers (for years!), behaviors generally remain unchanged.
But it’s not only about behavior. My feeling is that, as useful as the term “digital blackface” is, it may also prevent us from getting deeper into the structuring antiblackness of which “digital blackface” is evidence. This requires a deeper meditation about what it would mean for non-black people to be creative on the Internet if they did not have access to the likenesses, mannerisms and vernaculars of black people. It’s as deep as the very definition of what it means to be funny on the Internet… white (and non-black) people need to ask themselves why blackness is at the heart of the production of comedic affects/vibes on the Internet. I would say we, but black people mostly already know what the deal is and have known since the era of vaudeville. While I’m not really interested in leaning on the Internet as a liberatory space or technology, it at least provides us/y’all ample space, possibility and instruments to explore this question in creative ways. To recycle an afro-pessimist phrase, that would risk the undoing the world (of Internet comedy); perhaps the fun would evaporate if New York, Cookie Lyon or Beyoncé were no longer at your finger tips. What would then be required would be to prioritize a different sort of logic that is not parasitic on blackness.
I don’t think that the recommendation that a non-black person think critically about their manipulation and circulation of blackness will be independently sufficient, but I see it as a necessary beginning.
a deal’s a deal. from wyll?
abigail sentence starters
Anne tongues her cheek in annoyance as Wyll falls into step beside her. He’s a dog with a bone about this. It’s almost enough to make her regret asking him to forgive her poker debt the last time they were near a merchant. Almost.
Lucky him, she appreciates how surprised he’d looked when she’d asked him for that, like he didn’t expect her to pay them off when she had the coin. It was shit like that that made him probably the best man out of the whole party. Anne knows it was a big ask, agreed to pay in information without reservation. It put her at risk with the rest of them, but if they couldn’t trust her by now to be better than the words might imply…well. Then she’d really have no business traveling with them.
Still….
“I thought ye’d ask yer questions at camp. I didn’t say I wouldn’t answer ‘em—I said I might need t’beg off some, at least while we’re in company. Ask yer damned questions.”
Imagine the protagonist's boyfriend throwing stones at his window and climbing up a tree to get in because the protagonist's mom doesn't want them to be together so they have to meet up in secret.
Now imagine exactly that but with two full-grown men. All of a sudden it's a lot less cute and a lot more "Mc why tf do you care about what your mom wants you're 24 years old damn it."
Apparently these stacked rocks on the islands in Hawaii are from tourists and after a little research it’s actually considered bad form and one should not do it.
It annoys me unreasonably when you want to ask people "what bird and what mammal would make the worst gryphon" as a fun thought exercise, and people with no joy and no imagination always interpret it as "a gryphon that sucks, is physically impossible, and would hate being alive", and - being predictable and lacking in imagination - always, always answer with "a hummingbird and a blue whale lol".
Like come on. Why do you have to suck the fun out of everything. Why not use a fraction of imagination and delightful whimsy. Imagine the combination of a mouse and a sparrow. That creature would be merciless, burtal, absolutely determined to get into your trash and has the power of both wings and hands to do its will. Or a crow and a cat - that thing is smart enough to fuck with people and not afraid to do it. Imagine the ungodly shriek of the noble fox-seagull, also determined to get into your trash.
A gryphon that is a combination of a kangaroo and a cassowary. The only proof we have of a loving god is the fact that those things do not exist. If hell is real, it's full of them. That thing can't fly, but it will run you down, it will kill you, and you will look stupid the whole entire time you're dying.
Why would the first thing that pops into your mind at the words "the worst gryphon" automatically be "a gryphon that hates being alive". Can you not picture a gryphon that fucking loves being alive, and has both the power and the will to make it everyone else's problem.
