angst prompts

'that's a lie. that's a filthy lie.' 'no, stay awake, stay awake.' 'you promised.' 'is that all this was to you? just a game?' 'all good things must come to an end, right?' 'you wouldn't...' 'don't you dare lie to me.' 'was this all a joke to you?' 'please don't leave me.' 'i thought you loved me.' 'did any of this matter to you?' 'don't say that. don't say that to me.' 'i can't breathe.' 'i don't think i'm gonna make it out of this one.' 'just get out.' 'i don't want to see you again.' 'you're bleeding!' 'you can't save everybody.' 'some people don't want to be saved.' 'get away from me.' 'don't touch me!' 'how can you even look at yourself?' 'so, this is it?' 'i would've died for you.' 'we were a mistake.' 'none of this was worth it, was it?' 'who cares? nothing matters.' 'don't you close your eyes. don't you dare close your eyes.' 'wake up. wake up!' 'are you even sorry?' 'did you really think this wouldn't hurt me?' 'save it. i don't want to hear it.' 'i never got to say goodbye.' 'you can't do this. you need help.' 'i trusted you.' 'joke's on me, right?' 'it's gonna be okay.' 'this is all my fault.' 'you can't leave me here.' 'i just want to give up.' 'do you even see what you're doing to yourself?' 'is that all you have to say? ''i expected more from you.'

it’s interesting learning which homophobic ideas are confusing and unfamiliar to the next generation. for example, every once in a while i’ll see a post going around expressing tittering surprise at someone’s claim that gay men have hundreds of sexual partners in their lifetimes. while these posts often have a snappy comeback attached, they send a shiver down my spine because i remember when those claims were common, when you’d see them on the news or read them in your study bible. and they were deployed with a specific purpose — to convince you not just that gay men were disgusting and pathological, but that they deserved to die from AIDS. i saw another post laughing at the outlandish idea that gay men eroticize and worship death, but that too was a standard line, part and parcel of this propaganda with the goal of dehumanizing gay men as they died by the thousands with little intervention from mainstream society.

which is not to say that not knowing this is your fault, or that i don’t understand. i’ll never forget sitting in a classroom with my high school gsa, all five of us, watching a documentary on depictions of gay and bi people in media (off the straight and narrow [pdf transcript] — a worthwhile watch if your school library has it) when the narrator mentioned “the stereotype of the gay psycho killer.” we burst into giggles — how ridiculous! — then turned to our gay faculty advisors and saw their pale, pained faces as they told us “no, really. that was real” and we realized that what we’d been laughing at was the stuff of their lives.

it’s moving and inspiring to see a new generation of kids growing up without encountering these ideas. it’s a good thing. but at the same time, we have to pass on the knowledge of this pain, so we’re not caught unawares when those who hate us come back with the oldest tricks in the book.

if you’re white and wanna write a poc character and feel awkward about it i implore you to ignore any twitblr stuff treating it as a massive ethical burden and instead come in more with the same mindset you’d have if you wanted to write about idk firefighters but didn’t know anything about firefighters so you do... research. Like fuck off with the weird kinda creepy calls for spiritual introspection you’re not writing about god damn space aliens you’re writing about humans and if you think you need more perspective of different life experiences just read?

Tutorial for a genderless makeup look.

disclaimer: I am east asian. if anyone who is not white sees anything wrong with my phrasing, inaccuracies, or insensitivity, or something I missed, please feel free to add on. I’m just one person with one perspective; none of what I say should be taken as The Singular way to draw an Asian character. if you havent done so already, please take the effort to expand your view of Asian culture outside this one tutorial.

if a white person reblogs this and adds something stupid I’m going to bite and kick you like a wild animal
