See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

28/3/21 (don’t give a shit how long this is, imma use this stupid amount of attention my rant got properly)

Now maybe it’s tokenistic,.. maybe tumblr doesn’t have as much media presence as Twitter or Instagram..

But where fucking else on the internet or on major social media platforms do you have Black Lives Matter be pinned as number 1 on trending for the past 9-10 fucking months??

And now I believe they’ve done the same for Stop Asian Hate?

Some people may say it’s an empty gesture but if you’re wanting information or resources or just wanna keep up to date with what progress (or lack thereof) has been made, in either mission, then it’s right. Fucking. There.

And those all lives matter, racist, bigoted motherfuckers out there that are trying to suggest that only one of the movements can exist at a time or are in any way in competition with each other and therefore cannot support each other, you are gonna have to shut your fucking mouth and get the fuck away from my blog because you don’t deserve to be here unless you manage to pull your head outta your ass, educate yourself and do the right thing.

Black Lives Matter and Stop Asian Hate are fighting their specific fights. There is no denying that. But their message is the same.

We deserve to live without persecution or fear because of our skin and/or where we come from.

As someone who is AAPI, but not living in America, just wanna make it clear.

This right here is fucking history, and I’m hoping y’all are staying safe.

Alright if y’all gonna boost visibility on what is essentially an angry rant about some nonsense I saw, then best step up and follow up:

A comparison of BLM and Stop Asian Hate, something I mentioned in passing but a very important discussion to have - you can support both, but they are different battles to fight, and we cannot be diminishing the importance of either, especially to the people experiencing those specific struggles, even if we have shared feelings on the treatment:

Since I’m also trending on the BLM tag (sorry to take up space there, and remove attention from more relevant voices than mine and specifically the voices of Black individuals):

LINKS

Black Voter suppression + organisations to support

An important message on BLM and the fight against the persecution of black people in America

A post on Breonna Taylor and how her murderers have still not been punished accordingly, a year after her death

A fair point about performative activism, which is something I hope I am not guilty of doing (even as a POC) but probably am:

Article on how BLM and SAH are fighting on the same field (albeit a different battle)

A donation master post for BLM organisations, black owned businesses etc. it’s a bit older so maybe not all the links are active but I figure it’s still just as relevant

Ways to help the BLM movement:

The logic of “Brands will only hop on the train if they can prove it’s profitable” makes it so much funnier when they clown on this fool. “Yeah we crunched the numbers and we found it to be profitable to call this clown out in public. Jacob hit the post button.”

List of real world things that readers have assumed I made up for my stories:

- Ido (language)

- The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas

- the Dragonriders of Pern series

- vellum

- the Public Universal Friend

- Quakers (religion)

banger list so far. can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Considering inventing this food I'm gonna call "pasta"

sunflowerinanoldshoe

It would be really funny to have characters eat "pasta" throughout the story and then over the course of the story you describe the "pasta" and it becomes increasingly clear it isn't anything like what we know as pasta.

derinthescarletpescatarian

Oh I pull that one all the time. My characters live in the far future and have no reason to remark on things that they consider to be normal and not worth specifying, which means I can wait until well into the story before casually revealing stuff like 'the main character has been walking around naked this entire time' or 'everyone has thick, black, slow-growing genetically engineered fingernails' or 'everyone thinks Doom is an ancient ritual that their forefathers used to play on new electronic devices to bless them' or 'koalas, which are extinct, were thought to be canines'.
