I hate having to say this for the 400th time but people seem to not understand how bad it is to just download other people’s content (video, art, edits, gifs, whatever) and reupload it on the same site or elsewhere pretending it’s theirs and not giving any sort of credit to the creator.
Please, stop stealing and reposting stuff. It’s super frustrating.
I’m putting this in the jse tag because that’s where I’ve seen it happen the most. Please do remember that there is work behind the content you see so just straight up steal it and reupload it without consent is absolutely awful and disrespectful.
Thank you for your attention.

Tumblr users are often so arrogant and it shows. They can draw a full cast of POC characters but when POC say "Hey we want more than just our skin tone" they're suddenly deaf as shit.
Representation on Tumblr has become a way for white people to win brownie points just because they took a Hershey's bar and slapped it onto a person's skin tone.
The most disgusting thing is that they insist on making JUST African-Americans. They insist on making JUST one facial type, one nose type, one lip type, one hair type, one slang type, one skin tone.
And when they make a person Asian, it's Japanese. And when they make a person Hispanic, it's Mexican. And when they make a person indigenous, they never specify on which tribe/nation they came from, but you'll bet they're Native AMERICAN.
But my favorite part is when other POC demand representation and those same fucking white people are like "But but but look at all my black characters!!!!"
POC isn't just confined to America.
POC isn't just black.
POC isn't just Japanese.
POC isn't just Mexican.
POC isn't just Native American.
It's from the Miskitu in Nicaragua, from the highlands of Ethiopia, from the deserts of Saudi Arabia, from the mountains of Indonesia. It's from the arroz con gandules, from the folk music, from the festivals. It's many cultures blending, it's speaking more than just English, it's dealing with racism unique to our countries of origin.
It's more than just one universal experience, and white Tumblr isn't willing to show that.
UPDATE: TYSM for the HUGE amount of love on this and since a few requested I do have prints of these! You can find them here: https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/unravy/ ❤
