It's late and I'm stoned so I read this as "I'm about to share my raisin brain muffin recipe" ...and honestly, that just makes sense for Tony.
I think ppl need to stop dismissing films like “crazy rich asians” and “to all the boys I loved before” as “cool for representation but just rom com fluff.”
Because like damn guys, sometimes I just don’t wanna deal with super deep narratives about identity and misogyny. Sometimes I just can’t handle the secondary trauma of movies like the joy luck club and maos last dancer. Sometimes I just need to escape into a happy place of light humor and hot people. And sometimes I want that happy place to show ppl who look like me.
Don’t knock escapism representation y’all.

luke skywalker had a crush on han solo, reblog if you agree
So for years black girls have had to read fanfics where y/n was automatically described as being paled skinned with long flowing hair and blue eyes. We couldn’t relate to it exactly, it excluded us, it ignored us. But we read it cause it was all that was out there. Now when we start writing fanfics for other black girls to feel included and represented, now you all are saying that you ‘‘can’t relate to it” therefore don’t support black writers when we were supporting your work all those years even though you were acting like we don’t exist within these fandoms.
Sometimes I like to throw in a chest bump
I really need this spread around because this is becoming a serious issue:
THESE types of posts really need to stop being made or spread. I have OCD and these are a massive trigger, because I physically cannot ignore them. I thought it was just a me thing for a while but then I posted a rant on my story on Instagram and so many other people with OCD (or even without) feel the same, and on top of that they just clog peoples feeds.
And it’s not not just the ones with consequences. Even the ones with rewards trigger it, because my brain automatically fills in the consequence.
This is becoming a serious issue and it’s really been affecting mine and others mental health. I don’t know if this will get anywhere but I’m trying to spread the message in the hopes that people understand.
Since I first started star wars I've been DIGGING for a bisexual Han Solo flag-thingy and have never found anything c l o se.. SO I MADE ONE- hes been a big comfort comfort character for me and I project my bisexual stress onto him😳
Ned: what if Donald Trump was gay?....
MJ: ...That'd make sense.
Peter: ...Dating Vladimir Putin.
Tony, very tired: ....
They dont tell us this shit in school, it's never talked about- how is this never talked about?? I never knew these quotes, I should've gotten more into the true history of MLK. Lately, so many interesting things about him have came out. White people so scarcely realize our privileges. We don't have to worry about simply getting out of our doors safely. I'm glad I'm learning more about black history, learning things I was never told, learning history that was ignored by society and the school systems. Now, I'm not blaming the school systems for my lack of knowledge. I hope that things really do start to change, that people become more educated on these things and people's ignorant views and opinions change as well.
