A lovely thought. I seriously appreciate it. I'm jazzed to keep going! Thanks for the kindness. :)

Thank you for those inspiring words!!

And here's Bertha as a fire demon.

Here's Samurai Jane with her naginata.

oh...my fucking god. amazing. for reals.

Amazing colours in the skull, and in the shadows cast by the skull, congratulations!

When I get off my phone and onto my 'puter, I will!!

I will remember you said that, be inspired by it, and will show you early art, if you like. :)

Not only do I like it, but I've written a thesis about the edicts of bushido and their parallels in the female mores of the novel, and am creating a graphic novelization where I take Jane's 'trembling white innocence,' as it's incorrectly described above, and adapted it into the idea of Jane as an Edo-era samurai…

You would not believe how many assholes I dismissed yesterday after making this exact point. Like, it's not even a subtle move on his part. Kanye West dressed his black daughter in a bullet-proof vest in 2015.

Yeah... in a country where a child was shot mere months ago for playing outside while black. That crazy Kanye! What will he think of next?

I love the way he is passionate about his own work and has this crazy work ethic. You can totally tell his mom taught him to praise his efforts because no one else would do so for him...her being a black mom I don't blame her. I just love Kanye, where people see jerk (and yes he has crossed the line) I mostly see…

You know, I actually bet he's a good student. Like, I've heard stories of when he was an up and coming producer and got the opportunity to work with big names— and folks said you could just see him quietly studying everything that was going on.

Kanye actually took time out of his lucrative and successful music career to intern at Fendi. My understanding is that he showed up and did his thing just like the other, far more regular interns. And he actually seems genuinely passionate about design, particularly aesthetic choices in fashion that promote whatever…

This is also my husband's motivation.

BOTSW was interesting in the story telling, but 100% yes on the poverty porn. I did not enjoy that film. The writer (not screen writer) is ridiculously amazing and her other theater stuff doesn't suffer from that exploitative mess.

Well it's really Will and Denzel's fault, they should've known they weren't winning anything for playing proud Black icons who threatened the White establishment. Hollywood only rewards Black men for playing "gritty" violent thugs and noble, long-suffering slaves.

i feel like it is a cross between hollywood's desire to showcase their progressivism & their need to condescend to people of colour

Yea, but, Beast's main title theme tho <3<3<3

I don't understand it. I could see if she were mean or rude which I have never heard of her being but she just doesn't take peoples shit. I can imagine some of the dehumanizing things that she has been offered or asked to do in Hollywood being who she is.
