Oh
I don’t understand people who say “Nintendo is so homophobic and racist because they never put NoN-WHITEY or LGBTQIAP++ characters in their games!”
First off, gay marriage is still illegal in Japan. There are Japanese games that focus on gay characters, but Nintendo is a family-friendly general appeal kind of publisher.
And as for characters of different ethnicities, Japan is one of the most racially homogenous countries in the world. Almost 99% of the population is Yamato Japanese. A black person in Japan is an incredibly rare sight.
In fact, most other countries aren’t as racially diverse as the US.
If an American looks at a piece of Japanese media and sees a sea of Caucasians (and afterwards complains about a lack of PoC), he is projecting his own views and biases onto the work.
In its country of origin, the cast would be seen as Japanese without question. Anime characters who are meant to be white have both blond hair and blue eyes, as well as features like a large nose, because that is how white people are generally perceived in Japan.
I’m not saying a particular culture is right or wrong. But when examining media we have to remember context and be aware of our biases.
Stop judging international media by US standards and then complaining that it doesn’t live up to them.
Daily reminder that the world isn’t the U.S.
deyogee, what girly hands ?
JESUS CHRIST THEY’RE BIGGER THAN HIS FACE IN THIS SCENE HAHAHAHA
Them be yaoi hands.
I think minions must be starfish and reproduce asexually. I hope that’s canon because otherwise they reproduce like that flash game suggests.
They were genetically modified corn kernels created by gru before the stupid retcon
Barry, can you put in a floating burger with eyes, smiling, gently floating right to left across the screen.
Thank you Barry
the phrase “curiosity killed the cat” is actually not the full phrase it actually is “curiosity killed the cat but satisfaction brought it back” so don’t let anyone tell you not to be a curious little baby okay go and be interested in the world uwu

Blood is thicker than waterThe blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.Meaning that relationships formed by choice are stronger than those formed by birth.
Let’s not forget that“Jack of all trades, master of none” ends with “But better than a master of one.”It means that being equally good/average at everything is much better than being perfect at one thing and sucking at everything else. So don’t worry if you’re not perfect at something you do! Being okay is better!
These made me feel better
Also, “great minds think alike” ends with “but fools rarely differ”
It goes to show that conformity isn’t always a good thing. And that just because more than one person has the same idea, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a good idea.
