For people who still don’t see anything wrong with cultural appropriation, who still call cornrows “boxer braids”, “Kim K braids” or whatever - our cornrows symbolize liberation and freedom, it’s not your trendy hairstyle, it actually does have a history.

Since slaves were never taught to write and drawing directions was dangerous, because they could lead to them being discovered, captured, sold again or even killed by their master.

To reduce the risk of being discovered, women started weaving the maps in their hair, carving out paths with their cornrows. Some of the patterns even had hidden messages!

Yes, braiding existed in Africa way before, but it got a whole new meaning when Europeans enslaved millions of people. So next time you decide to go for a “Kim K look”, do a little research before you end up disrespecting someone’s culture and just, in all honesty, looking silly.

IT'S HIS FIRST FUCKING LINE

I was expecting it to be a level of fan overanalyzing or that Apollo would trigger it with some dialog but no Klavier literally just turns up, clocks Apollo as gay and immediately starts flirting. The first piece of information they want us to have is he's bi and he's here to fuck.

Oikawa, seductively: Am I a bad boy?

Iwaizumi: Yeah, you’ve been bad.

Oikawa, still seductively: Oh yeah? How bad am I?

Iwaizumi: You’re a complete nightmare to be honest.
