Is this relevant right now
swifties are wild god bless 🤦🏽♀️
Also, on a side note… these people are fucking delusional if they think the general public is on their side.
Please help me to complete my treatment outside Gaza 💔😭
are we ever going to discuss the misconception that shen yuan/shen qingqiu is a lazy good for nothing?
because he is not. not really, with the exception liking to sleep late, and that doesn't count. he's always doing something, even if it's just reading a billion long novel(s), scouring the forums and typing long-ass detailed comments, being a big enough fan/hater everyone knows him; everyone knows fandom takes dedication. and then as sqq he's either trying to master his new powers, figuring out how things work in the new world he transmigrated into, teaching his disciples, visiting his sect siblings, teaching luo binghe, night hunting, reading, traveling
even post endless abyss it's said he spent most of his time out of the peak. he literally can't sit still doing nothing– unlike the original sqq, who would stay in his rooms all day, he wanted to go out to explore the city during the skinner's investigation.
this is just one of those things that he lies about– he tells us he's lazy because that's what he thinks of himself, but he really is not
Wish tumblr had a way to like tags and comments bc I don't want ppl thinking I'm ignoring them I just feel awkward and have no idea what to say 🫠
People complain about Rick Riordan “beating a dead horse” but HE CAN BEAT ALL THE DEAD HORSES HE LIKES.
Rick Riordan has actively added diverse characters in all of his books to represent more kids. Characters in his books include:
a Arab-American, Muslim Valkyrie (Magnus Chase)
a deaf/mute elf who uses sign language (Magnus Chase)
a Hispanic son of Hephaestus (Heroes of Olympus)
a half-Cherokee daughter of Aphrodite (Heroes of Olympus)
a Chinese son of Mars (Heroes of Olympus)
a bisexual God/Teen (Trials of Apollo)
a happy and loving gay couple, Nico and Will (Trials of Apollo)
a black male dwarf that loves fashion and design (Magnus Chase)
a black daughter of Hades (Heroes of Olympus)
a genderfluid, transgender warrior of Odin (Magnus Chase)
kids with ADHD and dyslexia (All greek/roman demigods in Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus)
POC siblings of mixed heritage, Carter and Sadie Kane (The Kane Chronicles)
and that’s just off the top of my head! This is not at all a conclusive list!!
When Rick Riordan first revealed Nico, a son of Hades in his best-selling Heroes of Olympus series, as gay people asked him “why?” and he said because he wanted kids to see themselves in his books and that all kids need to be able to see themselves in literature and find reassurance that they’re fine just the way they are. HE PORTRAYS ALL OF THESE KIDS AS HEROES. This is SO SO IMPORTANT
So unlike some people who beat dead horses and don’t even try to be diverse (*cough*JKROWLING*cough*) at least Riordan is constantly adding more and more young heroes and heroines that are diverse, well-rounded, and important.
THAT’S GREAT AND I WILL BUY EVERY SINGLE ONE OF HIS DEAD HORSE BEATING NOVELS FIGHT ME
Enjoy this written piece? Consider buying me a coffee.
cartoons were wacky for making us believe this trope
