today I saw something that said “sometimes progress doesn’t really look like progress and that’s okay.” just remember that your progress does not need to be seen or validated by other people.

A very beautiful and impactful pic

If you see Rose…  just tell her… tell her…

the smell of the wind, rain, and earth all at once is so overwhelmingly calm and gives me so much serotonin it’s unimaginable

fuck i do

broken body

“I was born with glass bones and paper skin. Every morning I break my legs, and every afternoon I break my arms. At night, I lie awake in agony until my heart attacks put me to sleep.”

YOU DID NOT QUOTE SPONGEBOB AND MAKE IT SOUND POETIC AND BEAUTIFUL

I think ppl need to stop dismissing films like “crazy rich asians” and “to all the boys I loved before” as “cool for representation but just rom com fluff.”

Because like damn guys, sometimes I just don’t wanna deal with super deep narratives about identity and misogyny. Sometimes I just can’t handle the secondary trauma of movies like the joy luck club and maos last dancer. Sometimes I just need to escape into a happy place of light humor and hot people. And sometimes I want that happy place to show ppl who look like me.

Don’t knock escapism representation y’all.

Ppl are asking if it’s ok for white ppl to reblog

Answer: yes.

Would rather y’all reblog than speak over .

i legitimately and in all seriousness think harold and kumar go to white castle is a revolutionary film expressly because its a mediocre stoner film that happens to star two asian dudes

we deserve to have mediocre stoner films as much as the next group

Tbh Harold and Kumar is about two Asian bro’s fighting simultaneously against white toxic masculinity stereotypes and also a commentary on the problematic nature of model minority culture in America under the guise of just like…really loving weed, man.

Also launched the careers of two men who wouldn’t have gotten callbacks otherwise (not to mention Kal’s political activism !) So like…yeah.

Comedy —GOOD COMEDY—is subversive !

Comedy and lighthearted romance and media that give us joy and hope are things we can’t forget even in the darkest times. We need to laugh and smile and love because that’s what we’re fighting for.

As a POC I always get so tired of the only “quality” stories being the ones that involve pain and suffering and some sort of struggle. White people get both the light and dark in their stories so why shouldn’t everyone else?

All people of color deserve the frivolous fluffy bullshit that white people get. No trope or cliche is over until people of color get their chance at them too.

I wonder what kind of a person I’d be if i didn’t have anxiety

Becoming a positive person does not mean never experiencing negative emotions. It means learning to cope with them in a healthy way and being able to recognize that those feelings are temporary. Please don’t ever be upset with yourself for feeling.

bruh the only time a man should have an abortion opinion is if he’s pregnant
