genericly voiced guy: I summon rock golem and place 2 cards face down. I end my turn
Jonouchi: He looks strong, but I bet yugi has something planned
4kids dub:
some guy who sounds like a muppet from the southwest: Ah summon the stone cold Rock Golem! An he’s gonna rock your world! Now i throw 2 cards face down!
Joey Wheeler: Nyeh, that there rockhead’s no match for my pal Yuge!
I CANNOT wait to teach my son the beauty that is melanin, i cannot wait to see him love himself in a world that positions darker skin as “lesser than”. He will grow up to love himself and his people if it’s the last thing i do as his mother.
And just a reminder that a black woman hadn’t won best actress in a leading role until 2002 and there hasn’t been another one since now THAT’S some tea
this is why i never wasted my energy with leonardo dicaprio being cheated one. we could all recognize that. white folks always got some amnesia when it comes to her talent and work and always want to underplay it when they simply and clearly dont know shit.
stop being defensive abt it and accept the fact that lightskin ppl are universally favored over darkskin ppl. this isn’t conjecture—it’s a proven, prevalent, malignant AND VIOLENT structure of oppression that makes prey of already-vulnerable populations of black and brown folks. shutting down honest discussions abt colorism w claims that it’s “divisive” or “trying to police your identity” is what’s actually harmful to our communities. it keeps us from effectively identifying and dissolving prejudices and systems that actively uplift lighter skinned ppl while trampling on darker skinned ppl. as a lightskin person, you benefit from a construct that gives you a certain privilege, like dnt act like anyone’s attacking your identity, jus acknowledge that you have that privilege and quit whining. colorism ain’t abt you, it’s abt the vry real, vry ignored oppression of darkskin ppl across every culture. kno that, discuss that and take it seriously or you wind up doin nothing but contributing to it.
