born to be tashi duncan’s controversially young girlfriend, forced to thirst over her on tumblr 😔
Woke up, still obsessed with Sinners.
Seriously, if you ever wanted to ask/wondered:
What and why our music means so much to the Black community, the roots from the past to the present
Why it's so deeply insulting to deal with the cultural appropriation and disrespect of Black music, given the depth of that meaning
How we use language, history, and context to determine when somebody ain't kinfolk despite pretending
How you might be allowed to forget that you're white, but we aren't allowed to forget that you're white, and that frames our interactions with you
How your allyship can fall oh so uselessly flat, no matter how well intentioned you may be, if you refuse to understand your position within the game
Why what scares you as fantastical is often a living nightmare for people of color, and how that history and social context can weave a horror story that hits close to home (I have a whole lesson on that!)
And more, go watch that movie 🙏🏾
literally one of the best movies i’ve ever seen. walked out of that theater shaking (bc the movie was SO scary and good) and crying (bc i love music and i love black culture)
SINNERS (2025) dir. by Ryan Coogler
look at those legs oh my golly…. this is my favorite post on tumblr
patrick always got his legs spread wide open and thighs on full display... this WHORE
leo’s hair is CURLY and his skin is NOT PALE and he only wore overalls ONCE
I will never forgive Viria for making everyone think that Leo's hair is straight/wavy (it's curly) and that he wears that atrocious outfit (he wore it 1 time).
Everytime someone give him straight hair an angel lost it's wing and at this point it's a mass murder
Salutations. This is your Uncle Sam. And this is the Great American Game.

it really frustrates me to think about how people are inevitably going to take Remmick’s one (1) singular statement about how much he resents the way the Irish were colonized and forcibly converted to Christianity and use it as fuel for “actually he had a point” and “he was right actually” and “he’s not really the villain here” posts, when the whole point is that Remmick is, through the vampiric hive mind he’s creating, forcibly assimilating people into yet another manipulative and parasitical system. he doesn't value the cultures of the people he assimilates—notice how all the vampires he turns dance to his culture's music using his culture's dances, and how he only uses the languages or knowledge other vampires have to offer when he needs to manipulate someone. Remmick is extremely transparent about the way he sees the people he turns as resources to exploit.
he’s perpetuating a cycle that he claims to hate and resent, and I think the movie is pretty damn clear about the fact that he doesn’t see anybody as valuable or useful to him except as prey and as pawns—otherwise he would just, you know, focus solely on people who actually consent to being turned. but he looked sad in that one scene and he’s an apparently attractive white cis man so people are gonna bend over backwards justifying all the harm he did.
im rewatching panic with my friend because of MIKE FAIST and she’s not getting the hype 😔 he’s so gorgeous and she just isn’t getting it 💔
