It’s like watching a car repeatedly drive straight into a wall. It’s unexplainable, it looks like it hurts a lot, but ultimately it ends up being darkly, ironically funny.
From my personal experience being an American on tumblr is like being the person in the BACK of the car praying that the person driving will STOP ramming into the wall.
A lot of us know this shit is stupid and we’re looking out the window like “LOOK THOSE OTHER CARS ARE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD LETS BE LIKE THEM”
But the driver is like “FUCK YOU! BUILT FORD TOUGH! USA USA USA DONT LIKE IT, GET OUT!” but the doors are locked and the car is now smoking and threatening to catch fire.
Reblogging for the followup comment! ‘cos that’s exactly what it’s like.
kanaya mentions all trolls having black lips naturally, but only female trolls are seen with this implying this may be a form of sexual dimorphism in trolls. kanaya also applies black lipstick in this panel, which would then represent presented femininity. from this we can clearly infer kanaya is trans and uses black lipstick to combat dysphoria, in this essay i will
In addition, Kanaya once has to explicitly state that she is a girl after John assumes she’s a boy. She says “It Happens”, implying that John’s mistake is not an isolated case but rather a frequent occurrence. It is extremely common for trans women to be read as male by others, no matter how femininely they present, so we may take this as another piece of evidence that Kanaya is trans.
i will legit never understand how ppl r always like “awwwww i wish i could support my fav artist” and then literally never reblog or retweet the art they like
