sometimes i get sad thinking about the changes they made to faramir in the films and the way that seems to have shaped the general fandom perception of his character, but then i remember the sheer power he has in the book and think....maybe it's for the best.

everyone in gondor loves him so much that randos form a crowd and chant his name when he arrives at the city... soldiers weep whilst on duty standing guard when they think he's dying....... he's literally the jewel – the hope – of minas tirith and everyone is obsessed with him... he's THE knight in shining armour... and on top of that he has an unshakable moral code and is so so gentle and tender and loves his sad little histories but he's also a respected leader and war commander and scout and he's fiercely brave and "can tame both man and beast" and he's a tactical smartass and he's a little bitch and he has beautiful long black hair that blows in the wind and he tells his dad that boromir's death is his fault and he kisses eowyn on the walls of minas tirith in the bright sunlight and doesn't give a shit that literally everyone can see them..........like what do you do with that. how do you depict that raw power. the unhinged appeal. the secksiness of character ???

A power is on the earth and in the air,  From which the vital spirit shrinks afraid,  And shelters him in nooks of deepest shade, From the hot steam and from the fiery glare. Look forth upon the earth—her thousand plants  Are smitten; even the dark sun-loving maize  Faints in the field beneath the torrid blaze; The herd beside the shaded fountain pants; For life is driven from all the landscape brown;  The bird hath sought his tree, the snake his den,  The trout floats dead in the hot stream, and men Drop by the sunstroke in the populous town:  As if the Day of Fire had dawned, and sent  Its deadly breath into the firmament.

-Midsummer by William Cullen Bryant

megumi + nobara moments

For everyone still saying Canada is better than the USA I would like to remind them of

The genocide of indigenous peoples

The awful treatmeant of indigenous peoples that still goes on today

The fact we had slaves and segregated schools (look up when the last one closed in Canada it will make you sick)

Speaking of awful schools look up when the last residential school closed in Canada. I dare you

The Chinese head tax

The use of Asian people to build things at a cheaper cost also while using them to do the dangerous jobs so white peoples didn’t have to die

Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Children

Police brutality that regularly involves black, native, and afro-indigenous peoples

The Mosque attack, aka targeted attack on Muslim and Islamic peoples that was considered a terroist attack

Starlight tours -cough still happen today cough-

Quebec trying to remove any religious symbol in pubic except for catholic ones

The mistreatment of Jagmeet Singh during the last election him being called “a terroist”, “towel head”, and told to “go back where he came from”

Also during the election the Peoples Party, and Bloc making very bold and disgusting statements about how BIPOC, and LGBTQA+ people were disgusting and damaging Canada

Speaking of the Bloc the white French man to is the leader decided to vote down teaching about systematic racism in Canada. When Jagmeet Singh called the Bloc leader what he is, a racist, Jagmeet was then thrown out and the Bloc leader demanded an apology. 🙃

The lack of health care, and basic needs in rez’s which caused a mass suicide in one Rez along with how gross that treatment is

More with police, racial profiling of BIPOC, want to see someone talk about it Tracy from “The Social” talked about her son getting stopped when he was with his white friends (he’s balck) in Toronto and the cop harassing him

These are 16 points I can think of off the top of my head. Canada is not less racist it’s just good at hiding it.

all i do is cry, read books, listen to music, and stare at the moon
