Day 1: Your favorite Character. Why is he or she...
Leonardo.
Leo has been my favorite turtle and one of my favorite comic characters ever since I was a small child. I always thought he was so cool because he was the leader and because he used double swords.
I remember an episode from the old 87 series where he quits being the leader because he doesn’t think he’s good enough and that episode nearly traumatized me when I was a kid.

Peace.
You do realize though that social structures seep through the everyday life, right? So you know that hetero-normativity, patriarchy, and white supremacy seep through to everyday life, as well? In the most mundane ways like when Black students must question whether or not to raise their hand in a room full of predominantly white students who magically...

Day Thirty: A song that reminds you of Infamous.
The last one! It only took me like 2-3 months!
For some reason, this one didn’t come to me for the longest time and then as I was traveling to work and getting pissed off in the Atlanta traffic, a song came on that immediately made me think about this specific question.
The song is Tributo a la Policia by Calle 13.
So the song is about police brutality in Puerto Rico, so thematically,...

Mainly the whole Jason prancing around naked throughout the issue. Well my issue isn’t so much that Jason is naked it’s that all the fangirls/boys threw a fucking fit in the first issue about Starfire. How she’s being objectified even though she flat out said that it was all about “free love” as far as her...

Day Twenty-Nine: Again, if you were a Conduit, and...
I would save Empire City.
My favorite superheroes are people like Superman, Wonder Woman, White Tiger, Static, Blue Beetle, etc. These are heroes that hold themselves up to the highest standards and use all their powers to help those in need.
I try to hold myself up to certain standards even now, so if I were a conduit with such unique and extraordinary powers, those standards would be more...

“Many acquaintances who are heavily involved in the martial arts, in my opinion, are not well rounded. In fact, they tend to be very narrow in defining their self concept. They tend to define themselves as martial artists, and little else. Their obsession with the arts has limited their self concept. Instead of seeing the martial arts as a lens that all else in life is reflected through,...

Passive-aggressive racism
racemash:
cruelyouth:
cruelyouth:
First, understand what I mean by “passive-aggressive.” It’s not just somebody defriending you on Facebook and not telling you why. When I talk about it, I mostly mean a personality a person has — a way that they deal with others.
Anybody can exhibit passive-aggressive behavior, but that does not necessarily mean that they themselves are...

I gotta say
unaguerrasinfondo:
I think it is completely bizarre that so many in the USA treat black latinos like its a ‘new thing’ when most of the most recognized latino figures are black. I’ll just drop two big names, Celia Cruz and Roberto Clemente. At one point in time Roberto Clemente was the most recognized Puerto Rican in the entire world. -and it wasn’t a secret to the sports world! nearly all of...

I asked one of my friends how she would describe Aikido.
Her response: “Aikido is mysterious….as the dark side of the moon!”
Nice.

This one is really exciting!
Electricity is easily is one of the coolest powers ever. Who wouldn’t want that power? Ever since I first saw Static Shock, I thought electric powers were just the stuff. However, choosing those seems a bit like cheating so I’m going to go with water powers!
“Now water can flow or it can crash.”
Water is one of those elements...

What would I change about inFamous?
I would probably change Cole’s name to Virgil Hawkins. That would of course lead to a few other changes as well…
I honestly cannot stop with this joke.
A Static DLC skin would be BOMB though…
To tell the truth, I don’t have much to say in this one. inFamous is a damn good series with great gameplay, good characters, a diverse...

Just A Quick Note to Atheists (From an Atheist)

Being an atheist does not erase privilege. This includes white privilege.
This also includes cis privilege, CNDP privilege, and het privilege.
Seriously, being an atheist does not erase your white privilege.
Criticizing exclusively (majority) non-white religions is racist. This includes Islam.
The existence of white Muslims does not...
