Perfect Match |dystopian Tom Holland Au

they’re either yoonjin, the cuddly eternal roommates™ or sin, the cheating gag duo. there’s no in between.

15 things to remember:

1.   that thing you did that was kind of embarrassing and weird, everyone else forgot about that already

2.   you look fine today, if you can’t notice something on your face standing 6 feet from a mirror then nobody else will either.

3.   social lives can go through cycles sometimes, if you feel like your friends are all ignoring you for no reason they’re probably just busy with other things.

4.   if you can’t stop thinking about someone or something, read a book, paint your nails or watch a movie. it won’t solve any serious problems but you will feel better.

5.   listen with the intent to understand, not the intent to reply.

6.   if you want something, go get it. 

7.   drink lots of water, eat lots of fruit, exercise more, go outside, get enough sleep and think positive thoughts.

8.   if you don’t ask, the answer will always be no.

9.   throw away the idea of a perfect tomorrow and live in the moment.

10.  stop comparing yourself to others.

11.  a beautiful day begins with a beautiful mindset. It’s a privilege to simply be alive and healthy. Start acting like life is a blessing.

12.  act the way you’d like to be and soon you’ll be the way you’d like to act.

13.  you will change. You’re not the same person you were three years ago. you’re not even the same person you were three minutes ago and that’s okay. especially if you don’t like the person you were three minutes ago.

14.  you don’t have to open the curtains if you don’t want to.

15.  being happy is the most important thing.

this might be a dumb thing to get worked up over and this text post ended up being WAY to long for a topic this stupid, but americans deciding to make a movie about eurovision, having it be written and directed by americans, casting an american and a canadian actor to play the lead roles of two icelandic musicians and having a few british actors as “european representation” and having them play russian and icelandic people is… so symbolic for how americans see other cultures.

I’ve seen americans (tumblr bloggers and celebrities) be passive aggressive about america not being in eurovision and acting like its specifically excluding them… despite there being multiple other continents who dont participate in esc.

and so these people see this phenomenon that many europeans seem to be passionate about and they see that they are not a part of it and then they get the idea that hey! this could be a movie! and who better to produce this movie than us americans. because we’re just better at that.

NOBODY ASKED FOR A EUROVISION MOVIE. MUCH LESS A EUROVISION MOVIE PRODUCED BY AMERICANS STARRING WILL FERRELL AS AN ICELANDIC PERSON.

This isn’t cultural appropriation in the sense of taking an idea from a marginalised community and passing it off as your own (although europe is not entirely “white/privileged” and includes many marginalised, ignored and looked down upon nations and ethnicities), but its still (white) americans thinking they get to make money off of a thing that wasnt their idea and that doesnt include them.

Yes, this is not a grave transgression, but it once again shows that americans think theyre better at telling stories than the people in these stories.

You could have had this movie written by a european. you could have cast actual icelandic singers. you could have used this opportunity to put the spotlight on more marginalised groups in europe. but you chose to have it all be done by americans. because you’re just better at it right?
