I will give you an example of how race affects my life. I live in a place called Alpine, New Jersey. Live in Alpine, New Jersey, right? My house costs millions of dollars. In my neighborhood, there are four black people. Hundreds of houses, four black people. Who are these black people? Well, there’s me, Mary J. Blige, Jay-Z and Eddie Murphy. Only black people in the whole neighborhood. So let’s break it down, let’s break it down: me, I’m a decent comedian. I’m a’ight. Mary J. Blige, one of the greatest R&B singers to ever walk the Earth. Jay-Z, one of the greatest rappers to ever live. Eddie Murphy, one of the funniest actors to ever, ever do it. Do you know what the white man who lives next door to me does for a living? He’s a fucking dentist! He ain’t the best dentist in the world…he ain’t going to the dental hall of fame…he don’t get plaques for getting rid of plaque. He’s just a yank-your-tooth-out dentist. See, the black man gotta fly to get to somethin’ the white man can walk to.

Chris Rock

see, this is something that aforementioned idiot should listen to. if you think racial equality exists because we have the same purported opportunity to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, ask if we even started at the same point, when people of color didn’t even have the same opportunities to set up a foundation for the life of this generation. you think your white grandparents got the same jobs as a person of color’s grandparents, so that they could retire and you would know they’d have access to healthcare? you think your white family was offered the same rates (or even chances) for home loans as a family of color’s so that you didn’t have to work a job through high school to meet rent? you think that your mother worrying if you’re going to get into a good college is hard enough? what if on top of that, your mother also had to worry that you might get gunned down in the street because of the color of your skin?

i’m sorry buddy, but you are wrong, and chris rock is so, so right.

Legend of Korra Superheroes by ~jcords

I lost it at Tenzin being Red Tornado

So if you haven’t been following me and/or somehow managed to miss it, my two favorite fandom things are
gender-bending
crossovers
Even if they aren’t 100% perfect (Asami as the Joker? Not sure how I feel about that) I LOVE THESE THINGS.
Hence, reblog.

Reblogging forever.

That’s Tahno as the Joker, not Asami.

Constant vigilance (that includes a principled practice of sharing my resources) has been the only stance that keeps me from falling into the hedonistic consumerism that so quickly can lead individuals with class privilege to live beyond their means and therefore to feel they are in a constant state of “lack,” thus having no reason to identify with those less fortunate or to be accountable for improving their lot. Time and time again, I hear individuals who make a lot of money but spend way beyond what they earn speak of themselves as though they are poor and needy. They do not see themselves as victims of the culture of greed that hedonistic consumerism produces. Yet this faulty logic lies at the heart of their inability to recognize the suffering of those who are truly in need.

jillthompson:

Unused/Rejected Beasts of Burden Hellboy cover. I was going for the opposite of Mike Mignola. Hence the fog instead of darkness. The tree is covered in those witch symbols that you find painted on barns in Pennylvania Dutch country. I love the look on Whitey’s face. I was unable to recreate the same look on the cover that was printed. So- enjoy!
