To Say The Natlan Trailer Was Disappointing Would Be An Understatement, Have Some Edits

Jinx!!

Quick splatoon OC sketch & lazy colour blocking!!

About Natlan...

So, the Natlan trailer is out and honestly… I'm disappointed.

I waited 3 years to see my culture represented but these character designs tell me nothing about pre-Hispanic culture or Latam culture as a whole and it's heartbreaking because the map and soundtrack are lovely.

Also, it's sad that some other Latinos are just like "there are white Latinos too." "At least we're getting represented." It's almost like they don't know their own culture. Seriously, do they think that just because a character is named "Citlali" (star in Náhuatl), that's enough?

Also this doesn't feel like genshin at all, why does nations like liyue, inazuma or fontaine have beautiful designs and are inspired on 1 or 2 countries while Natlan is based in TWO CONTINENTS is just like if hoyoverse said "Africa and Latam? Let's mix them together, they are both tropical continents after all"

And it makes me sad because i was planning on doing 2 OCs for natlan both dark skined and based on mexica/aztec and maya culture but seeing those hoyeverse designs… My OCs wouldn't fit their "aesthetic" and i refuse to see my culture used as an "aesthetic" once again from foreigners that don't even care to know and respect it.

Anyways, that's my rant for tonight, sorry but i had to share my thoughts

lesbians… save me lesbians… lesbians please…

Save me.. Finalfest OTH... save me...

I hate it whenever people say “mental health matters!” Until you have a disorder that their neurotypical brains can’t understand. Because the second you tell them about it and it doesn’t fit their romanticized versions of the disorder, they look at you as if you have three heads.

can anyone else relate to this problem? :(

“How are you?” I should be in a straight jacket but unfortunately for the both of us I’m here

nothing has been more important to my being queer than when i went to my first pride parade, got seperated from my group, had a panic attack about it and was sitting on the side of the road holding a tiny genderfluid flag and freaking out. then this six foot five drag queen in four inch heels appeared from literally nowhere and sat down next to me. i, this scared-shitless trans bi kid at pride for the first time, very nervously told her she looked pretty and i told her my name and that i got lost and didn't feel like i should be at pride and she held my hand and said "oh, honey, everybody deserves to be here, especially you. pride is for everybody who's ever gotten lost, who's been scared of who they are or where they are. you think we never been scared before? pride's for you, honey, because you're scared. you don't have to be proud right now, but you're gonna be one day, honey, i'm sure of it."

i found my group soon after that and i never saw that queen again but to this day i am convinced i met an angel.

so yeah. pride is for you. pride is for all of us.

IT LOOKS LIKE ITS A NEW VERSION OF POW POW POWERED BY HEXTECH!!

trans gwen is so canon like you can't tell me that her having the trans flag colors around her while she's TALKING ABOUT HAVING TO HIDE HER IDENTITY wasn't intentional. “oh but its just the colors of her suit” okay?? that doesn’t mean it can’t imply multiple things.

her dad also has a trans flag on his jacket

like, i highly doubt a cis parent with a cis child would have this on their police uniform

and ofc the protect trans kids sign above her door. not to mention the narrative parallels between hiding your identity as spiderman and as a trans person. trans gwen is real to me!!
