do people still do recolorings?
i found an old blog months ago that used to specialize in eggso recolorings. I did it for fun for awhile. But its sad nobody does them anymore. Like this is not a sin..anyway this like disappeared and I miss these so I'll just do it for myself. Lmao when Im scrolling one day I'll see it and pretend it wasnt me and smile. I used to not have a heavy opinion but now some people genuinely don't know koreans have melanin. But its only because everything has filters now.
lmao it needs to be rebranded remelanation

yes. I love it. Its so good. I hate that not many people know it exists. Its free and easy to watch. Its like lion kings conspiracy theory animal testing epigentic commentary older brother.
Whip It (2009)
This movie treats all its characters in such a way that it's impossible not to root for them. It's so refreshing to watch a movie that is so utterly female-centered. Bliss' ex-pageant queen mum in particular is a character that could've easily been portrayed in a one-dimensional light, but thanks to both the writing and Marcia Gay Harden's acting she ends up being very complex, someone you can alternately hate and pity and laugh at and love.
Some aspects of this movie are really quite clunky. Some sections felt like one-off comedy bits that broke the flow and could've easily been left out, things like Jimmy Fallon's character sleazing up on Eva Destruction.
It is weird how the movie has no problem with the age gap relationship and the fact that Bliss (the younger one in the relationship) never discloses her age to her nice douche older boyfriend. I was sitting there expecting it to come up and it felt bizarre that it didn't. Not even the best friend or the mum comments on the age gap. Which obviously, unfortunately, is a realistic thing to happen, but for a movie that is so intentionally female-focused it feels like a weird thing not to address.
That said, it was really fantastic and cathartic to see female characters pushing each other around, being ruthless and aggressive yet caring fiercely about each other and their sport. The food fight scene was a particular highlight.
It took me about half an hour into the movie to start getting into it. It is warm and charming, but you have to sit through some really cheesy, unconvincing moments, mostly in the first half. By the second half, though, the movie is in full swing, with Elliot Page and Marcia Gay Harden giving incredible, funny and moving performances as the rebellious roller derby-obsessed daughter and her traditional pageant-obsessed mum.

also another commentary on the colorism and dualism in fujoshi culture. Like they need a darker melanated male to play the masculine that's all that matters. Who that is does not matter. Whatever they are going through doesn't matter. Finding out the roughest years in kji's life is when he was shipped the heaviest say everything. A masculine dark skinned athletic male in fandom circles gets passed around continuously in shipping. CONTINUOUSLY and like no. And then if one member says something colorist or rude or is just plain mean due to either people being weird, trying to make a joke or whatever, it's laughed off and normalized. It's bad enough it happens in korea. To the extent I really don't believe people understand, like it's really bad, worse than pann comments on koreaboo let on. It's inhumane the socially acceptable comments dark skinned koreans get, the treatment. The cameras show only a fraction. Then after all that poor treatment s.m changed his makeup and styling and now he's getting dehumanized via his proximity to femininity, and his body is being objectified like ten times more. It's on the same level people talk about female s symbols and they get dogged out pretty bad. Cause now his skin is lighter and more appealing to the eurocentric eye. Like it's messed up. Seriously. It's okay to say someone looks good but you'd think there'd be a little respect to go along with that for people who allegedly care about human rights and women's issues so much. It reeks of internalized misogyny. The rude comments about his body and his effeminate behavior. Also I'm not pro pity, but maybe if people see this is a problem maybe they can reflect. Nobody wants to live in a boring world, but there is levels to how terrible people can be to one another. I hope in the future we can be better and do better for one another.
shipping commentary
Man I feel bad for people once they are out of the company and don't have to pretend to be close anymore. It's gonna be a sad sad day in delusional hell.
Idols outside of kpop filming time being asked about their ship :
I love healthy male bonding it's great, but people take it way too far. Even if they aren't straight, they could easily still be in a relationship with another person, what is the obsession that people in kpop only date their coworkers? Is s.m a plantation? Can they not drive? Catch a flight? Facetime? This is exactly how some shippers missed harry had been dating loads of people while millions were convinced he was dating his band member. It's not high school, they don't live in a dorm, they aren't middle schoolers. They have lives outside of kpop. They know other people. Everyone only clings onto the ships s.m shoves in their face is because it gives them peace. It's a huge world, half of them aren't introverts, they aren't shy, they live full lives that you and nobody else is privy to. Ships are just a comfort so fans think they know who they are with and what they are doing. But I promise you do not. And I don't even hate friendshipping it's fine, enjoy fandom stuff. I really don't mind it, the content isn't innately evil, but it's the mindset it creates, especially when you bring babyfied thinking into serious conversations. Discussing somebody's racist colorist ass comments aren't coming for a ship, and using a ship to shield someone from criticism is disgusting, that's the real truth everybody conveinently leaves out. And if the response is oh well they said this or did that, another time, it's like the point is completely missed. It's not about hiding nobody else's shit it's about acknowledging all of it and not pretending none of it matters.They use the ships to hide shady stuff that was said and done and it's sick.
People think everybody is dumb and just know the basic stuff. Some people know alot. I don't care, but pretending that a lot of stuff never happened, and then continuing to bully the person who was picked on cause now everyone is just shipping and its all fluffy and cute..it gets on my nerves. And I do not like the idea of newbies who know nothing just accepting this cuteness while the dinosaurs are steady burying everything they can. Especially the ones who make videos and find clips to craft a better narrative. Really gross. Everyone can do much better. We don't have to live in the past, but we don't have to lie about it either.
I'm so tired of reading this.

Capitalism kills
people are way to general with the exposing celebs argument for me, like you either wanna talk about EVERYTHING or nothing. There's no in between. And people usually stop at the simple judging a celeb because it's popular. Celebs are only the reflection of the current celebrity. A school of fish won't give birth to a giraffe. If someone with money fame and success acts like a demon that's because the society upheld that standard. People's subconscious mind intakes everything. In a society where alcohol and drugs are okay, fighting and harming others is funny why would it surprise you that people with fame and money participate in that as well? It shouldn't. In reality people support villains the most. Mind you clark kent gets treated like crap for being a nice person, but people uplift superman only when he is destroying and fighting. People are awful in general therefore what celebs do don't surprise me. but it's acting like you cannot discuss if someone has narcissistic or sociopathic tendencies. But when it comes out they hurt others everyone is shocked. No people are fake and hive minded. Only ready to crap on someone when it's socially acceptable. If people thought logically and it was normal to observe people's behavior and protect your heart and emotions nobody would be hurt by celebs or family or friends getting exposed. But human society rewards ignorance. Like no. That's not cute at all. That being said even if I like of kekeke about someone that doesn't mean I'm ignorant to darker or shadow sides of their personality. I wish it was normal not being a fairy about another human beings like humans aren't naturally lying and violent creatures. It's actually sad how it mentally hurts people to think of someone they like in a realistic way. This is how people have psychotic breaks whenever their faves gets outed. Honestly this is making me reflect on my youth when I thought it was cute to ignore the human imperfect sides of someone. Never do that. Don't bully or make fun of people ever but be realistic. That can save someone's life seriously. I've seen people get scolded into turning their lives around. But sadly many think that is hating, but it isn't. As a large group, telling someone they need to go get help and take care of themselves isn't overstepping. That shit can save someone's life, literally. Even if you don't know them formally. People need to stop being hesitant to tell the real about people to protect their reputation. It only helps the one drowning feel like nobody can see their pain. Instead of spamming people's dm's with praise or inappropriate photos to puff up their ego, try to encourage them to get help if you have to do anything. Honestly a lot of celebs are mentally unhealthy, not all but a lot. Some people don't need access to large amounts of cash like that, but it's like the most insecure people in the world are getting quick cash and it's killing them. There is no buying happiness. A lot of them need to just stop being famous because they cannot handle it. Some people can because they are stable and confident but a majority literally cannot. Its okay to make it clear that you will not support someone until they take a much needed break and go get mental, spiritual and physical help.

kai using justin bieber’s song to express his feelings
I try to explain that its racist and dehumanizing to do this to people but no, they like it too much. The history of western media demasculizing asian men, asian men working hard to stop that myth and the western women doing it but they think its okay. Nobody is your baby, go have a child if you want to infantilize someone that badly. They are grown people, its rude but particularly so if you are not korean or even asian.
