And now, a moment of appreciation...

…for all the background artists, who…

…in the midst of nonexistent budget and very limited time…

…managed to fully realize their artistic vision anyway.

Were they essentially speedpaints done on the budget of a ham sandwich? Yes. Do they deserve way more credit? Absolutely.

‘I will speak, I will act.’

I know a lot of my followers don’t follow American soccer, but all sports should be using San Diego Loyal as an example.

Last week, Elijah Martin was called a racist slur by Omar Ontiveros during a game versus LA Galaxy II. This was heard by multiple players, referees, and coaches, even though Ontiveros wasn’t ejected or punished for the slur. The SD coaching staff didn’t hear of this incident until after the game. Because of this, SD forfeited the point they earned from this game and all Loyal players took a knee before last night’s game. Since then, the Ontiveros’s contract has been terminated,  Read more here.

Last night (September 30th), Collin Martin (who is an openly gay midfielder for San Diego, and who has been out for over two years) was called a homophobic slur during a game against Phoenix Rising FC. Again, the player wasn’t punished even though many heard what he said. The Loyal manager even asked the other team to pull the player, and they refused.

In protest, the entire team walked off before the game had even finished, even though they were winning 3-1 and fighting for a playoff spot. This game was vital to their playoff hopes, but to the Loyal, meant nothing next to these incidents. More info here.

Landon Donavon, who is the Loyal manager, made this statement after.

“We went through a really hard incident last week in the LA match and we made a vow to ourselves, to our community, to our players, to the club, to USL, that we would not stand for bigotry, homophobic slurs, things that don’t belong in our game.” and also added “If they’re not willing to act, then we have to act.” which is a theme of their organization.

Please, watch this video of Donavon - who is an extremely respected former American player - explaining why they decided to act.

the concept of bbc merlin is actually so funny like. hey remember that super old wizard from king arthur? remember how he was extremely powerful and like experienced time backwards and stuff? what if instead of all that he was just. a dumb little magic twink.

to be clear 1984 is the name of the book that quote is from, the year he wrote it was 1949

KNOWING JK ROWLINGS SPECIFIC BRAND OF BIGOTRY CASTS MUCH OF HER WORK IN NEW AND UNFLATTERING LIGHT IT TURNS OTHERWISE BENIGN PLOT POINTS INTO A DEEPLY UNPLEASANT RACIAL SUPREMACIST NARRATIVE

KNOWING HP LOVECRAFTS SPECIFIC BRAND OF BIGOTRY MAKES MUCH OF HIS WORK REALLY FUNNY IT TURNS HORRIFIC ELDRITCH MONSTERS INTO POTENTIAL BOYFRIENDS

LOVECRAFTS WORK ISNT ANYTHING SPECIAL AND HIS LASTING INFLUENCE IN FICTION CAN BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE AUTHORS THAT TOOK HIS THEMES AND RAN IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION WITH THEM A LA OCTAVIA BUTLER AND GUILLERMO DEL TORO WE HAVE A DUTY AS CREATORS TO SUBBERT THE LANGUAGE OF OPPRESSION

IN SHORT:

THE AUTHOR ISNT DEAD BUT ITS OUR JOB TO KILL THEM

always remember- one of the key steps in ‘lovecraftian fiction’ was the waves of fans of his that took his inspirations, brushed the racism off of it, and made SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER VERSIONS WITHOUT THE SAME PROBLEMS go fourth and produce magical fiction that is better then anything rowling wrote to the point its a middle finger to her capabilities

But here’s the difference: 

But most importantly:

LOVECRAFT ISN’T ON TWITTER! He can’t influence people, he doesn’t have a platform, he’s got a coffin. JKR wields her influence for really bad things. Maybe the time will come when her work can be reclaimed, but right now the priority is to take away her platform and her influence. And that, sadly, means letting go of Harry Potter. For now.

Stop. Normalizing. Bath Bombs. they’re training people not to recognize the inherent dangers of magical vortexes

thousands of years of evolutionary instincts gone just like that. you dumbasses are gonna stick your feet in the first glowing portal you stumble across and get kidnapped by the fucking fae

It’s 2020 and I’ve reconsidered my stance on being abducted by the fae

Not only did they use the life of a bystander, they literally pushed her car closer to use her for cover. They could have taken her out of the car, or anything else. It no they pushed her into the line of fire to die.

Hey guys remember this
