y'all a lot of hollywood horror is actually derivative of non-USA films.
also, i wince every time i'm talking to american horror enthusiasts and they think that Ringu was made based on The Ring. No, really y'all - the japanese film came first. lol. this happened to me today, and i couldn't even convince them.
tbh, this happens to me a lot. generally, people think hollywood is a lot more original than it actually is.
honest question. why do white women feel the need to write about and talk about non-white experiences?
having a friend that is non-white is damn well not the same as being non-white.
there's a particular type of hubris that i've found in white women. they use elevated social position to speak for me and others like me that never asked or wanted them to do so.
psa - if you do this kind of thing, pls stop. if you see someone else doing it, suggest that they stop.
just logged into a forum I used to be a part of years back for the sake of shaving away some old personal info that I don't want floating around the internet
took a look around some of the currently active threads while doing so, and holy crap there was so much far-right stuff everywhere
if you need me I'll be hiding somewhere in the back of the instance, never leaving or going back outside.
social stuff, personal meta (~)
i sometimes wonder if i'm way too fucked up to be able to connect with people that don't have baggage and trauma of some kind
it's kinda weird. it's like when i talk with or see people with little to no baggage, i don't even know how to engage. they don't tend to either.
it's like being a different kind of human, which is weird to conceptualize but makes sense. but means that empathy is a hard thing to build across that line.
dreams
I had a dream last night that I was back in high school, and one of my classmates had somehow gotten my parent's credit card info, purchased $10,000 worth of red bell peppers, and had them delivered to the school with my name on them.
So when I went in the next day, everyone was either looking at me with pity or just sort of making fun of me, while I had no idea what was going on until much later on, at which point I tried to just play it cool and shrug it off while internally panicking
