Yuri!! On Ice Instagram Acrylic Charms - 1.5″ - $8 each

I’ve re-opened my shop, and my newest items are these Yuri!! On Ice Instagram charms! This was my first run to make sure the idea worked, so there are limited quantities of each design! >> Check them out here! <<

Also, I’m trying something new - each month, I’ll be researching and choosing a different charity or advocate group to donate all of that month’s profits from TicTail. This month’s group is Asian Americans Advancing Justice.

Umm.

I’m sorry, I had to do this.

This is an AU where Yuri Plisetsky is from Voronezh (my hometown).

Bye.

no, it’s what other white people need to do. the other white people in that section of the train should have shamed their fellow white woman.

for anyone who doesnt play overwatch, heres essentially whats going on in no particular order

  • symmetra, someone who’s INDIAN and likely practices HINDUISM if anything at all, was given a CHINESE QIPAO skin and the skin is literally called QIPAO and its still sexualized, bc apparently qipaos and chinese clothing arent constantly sexualized enough
  • mercy, some WHITE WOMAN, was given a skin based off chinese new year colours, and even worse, a highlight intro where she, a WHITE WOMAN, writes the CHINESE character for good fortune
  • tracer, a WHITE WOMAN, was given a highlight intro where she does the CHINESE lion dance, the very traditional and culturally important CHINESE lion dance
  • YELLOW-FACE zenyatta, winston, reinhardt, and roadhog to give them journey to the west themed skins, these four NOT CHINESE characters are given very CHINESE themed character skins
  • YELLOW-FACE ana’s skin, you know, ana, the dark skinned ARAB MUSLIM WOMAN FROM EGYPT
  • using CHINESE CULTURE as an ~EXOTIC~ aesthetic for tons of sprays
  • junkrat, who is NOT chinese, has a voice line where he speaks a CHINESE phrase for good fortune in the new year, and is deckd out in CHINESE fireworks which are actually CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT and used in CHINESE new year festivals for a reason

in short this event is a fucking racist mess

Okay, this has to be one of the most misinformed posts I’ve seen about Overwatch, so sit your ass down as I refute this point by point. (If you need credentials I’m actually Chinese plus I play Overwatch on a regular basis :V)

  • First of all, Lunar New Year is not a religious celebration. It is just a celebration of the new year on the lunar calendar, as the name might suggest. Religion has nothing to do with this. Also, Symmetra isn’t actually wearing a qipao, it’s just her usual outfit recoloured into the LNY colour palette. Which is a shame, but that’s Blizzard’s only crime in this regard.
  • Are white people not allowed to speak Chinese? At all? And wear Chinese themed clothing? It’s not even based on racial stereotypes so there’s nothing wrong with Mercy (and everyone else’s outfit). There’s only one Chinese person in the Overwatch cast. Did you really expect them to load everything on just her and ignore everyone else? I, as a Chinese person, would have been really disappointed in that case. (On a side note, I’m kinda sad there aren’t more Korean themed stuff but Blizzard chose to focus on the Chinese aspect of Lunar New Year I guess.)
  • The lion dance is not a religious dance. It’s a celebratory dance and also one of skill. The lion’s dance isn’t limited to just Chinese performers, people of other cultures can perform it if they are capable of doing it.
  • Hahahaha, bud have you LOOKED at the skins? None of those four costumes have anything resembling a yellow face.

Please. Go on. Point out the yellow face. Also thematically each of these four characters fit the skins they’ve received. The protagonist of Journey to the West, Sun Wukong, is a monkey. Why not give it to the gorilla? Zhu Bajie is actually a pig. Roadhog is pig themed. This makes sense right??? Sadly I’m not as familiar with the other two main protagonists but I can guarantee if I did the research I’d find nothing wrong.

  • The sprays as far as I’ve seen have all been respectful and none of them are offensive. Just a bunch of Lunar New Year symbols.
  • See point above about speaking Chinese. Not to mention, Junkrat says Gong Xi Fa Cai perfectly, it’s not a racist imitation? It’s a well wishing phrase often said during Chinese New Year to wish the recipient prosperity and fortune. What’s wrong with that?

To conclude, Chinese New Year is a celebration that is open for sharing, and Blizzard as far as I’ve seen has been respectful of the event and the Chinese culture. So, OP, shut the fuck up.

did they did they seriously try to say that a fucking aracial robot given a chinese motif skin and A Gorilla given a skin to resemble the monkey king was yellowface

I, a WHITE ENGLISH person, am going to play the game during this CHINESE themed event

People really getting uptight over fictional characters in video games these days. Like fam, go outside, speak to people and realize everything will be okay. Or at least read a wiki page before throwing accusations around acting like you know what you’re talking about.
