here is truth
jedifreac: After three years of working on Racebending.com I am not sure if I should be excited by how fiercely and rapidly the fandom can and will break down why the film was problematic, or sad that years and years later, the same excuses and apologetics get trotted out over and over. It’s hard, sometimes, to stand in a sea of A:TLA fandom and not know if I am surrounded by supporters of our...

Keep your links.  I don’t give a damn about some random deviantartist who decided to invent Norse myths.  A white person who decides to invent a demonic Hindu creature is not “just making a story”; they are engaging in a...

towelsandtea replied to your post: I’m going to Ascendio 2012! Is it in Florida?! YESSS, in Orlando! I was checking out the website and the hotel is like a 15min (free!) water taxi ride away from the Harry Potter themepark. Or something. Universal Studios? You know how it is: Americans like to have things piled on top of greater things so all things can eventually be reached and enjoyed,...
