Donald Trump has starred in Little Rascals , Home Alone 2, and others. Doesn't that technically make him a Hollywood actor?
stop normalizing celebrities running for president with no fucking knowledge or background in politics
My heart breaks for my family. How many times must their hands burn just to reach a loaf of bread? And behind each loaf lies the harsh reality: flour infested with worms and insects, expired and damp from poor storage and transport. Yet they have no other choice they’ve already been forced to eat animal feed and wild grass.
Do you know the cost of this single sack of flour? Or how many children risk their lives gathering firewood from the rubble of destroyed homes under constant threat of bombing? Aboudi, for example, should be living his childhood in peace. Instead, he’s the one tasked with collecting wood for cooking.
Can you imagine how many children, how many people, wait eagerly for that single piece of bread, only to share it among so many? How much longer will this suffering and humiliation continue this war of starvation? Do you know how many children have died hungry in this genocide?
Silent solidarity will not save the children of Palestine. We must act and make a difference. Thanks to your support, we have raised enough to secure the escape of three of my family members from Gaza.
Please, continue supporting my family so we can secure the fourth as soon as possible. The border could open at any moment, and we need the funds ready to save their lives before we lose this chance.

I get the feeling that the reason Adrien salters are mad about "oh no, Ladybug said nice things about Chat to make him feel better!" thing is just because they want Ladybug to hate Chat as much as they do, and she just doesn't. Adrien and Marinette give each other pep talks all the time. Heck, Adrien gave a small one to Marinette in Guiltrip itself, with him reassuring her that she doesn't say mean stuff, even by accident, so there must be another reason Juleka ran off.
Uh huh, and it's because Marinette is a form of self insert for them. These "stans" don't care for what Marinette's character actually is, they prefer the flanderized bully they've made up in their heads for their saltfics. They don't want Marinette to have a crush on Adrien, so they make her hate him as much as they do. They don't want Ladybug to deeply care for Chat Noir, so they make her loathe him and take away his ring just because they declare it should be that way. They don't like that she loves her friends and would do anything for them so they make the class bullies and have them torment her so they have a reason to extort their petty revenge plots. They don't like that she loves and trusts Alya to the extent of telling her her secret, so they make Alya a traitor and give Marinette a reason to hate her. They don't care about her beyond her treating THEIR faves perfectly and acceptably, but if she doesn't, even Marinette isn't immune to their salt. (Re: Chloe not getting a miraculous, and people shitting on her for handling her break up with Luka in the most mature way she could)
They really can't say they love Marinette if they grit their teeth every time she doesn't act according to the headcanons they made up.
A character as awesome as Marinette deserves a better fandom.

People need to get a life! WTH?!
Mmm let's see.......
Earlier today approximately at 4:26 PM I was inboxed by a Adrien stan who commented on my posts before I blocked them.
They private messaged me and told me that it was Marinette's fault Adrien's abusing her and I was wrong for pointing out Adrien's abuse towards her. According to them I'm a delusional demented bitch for calling Adrien an abuser, and a bad person.
I also happen to point out Adrien's horrible behavior on various other platforms like Wattpad for example. I'm not sure if the person who inboxed me earlier is friends with other Adrien stans but another Adrien stan in one day messaged on my message wall. Saying this,
"I hate people like you. Adrien is not and will never be a abuser. People like you want to hate on characters that have done literally nothing wrong. You just need to stop watching the show all together and commit already. People like you suck and need to die. Adrien is innocent and has done nothing wrong, Marinette is the one that abuses Chat Noir and rejects him breaking his heart like it's nothing. He's respects her and does everything for her. Just go grab a gun and shoot yourself with it. Marinette is a bitch who deserves to burn in hell, she doesn't deserve Chat."
Guys I......I don't even know what to do right now. I have blocked this user as well. But um guys......please read what they said carefully and examine everything they've said.
Another then came in my inbox on Wattpad accusing me of calling her friend names (The eariler Wattpad Adrien stan) and bullying "Adrien".
"Your a horrible bitch, your just some attention slut, all you do is complain about Adrien. When he's nothing but amazing. Marinette is an awful person. She's weird and dysfunctional and she doesn't deserve Adrien, she should have felt bad that Chloe left, that was Adrien's best friend and as Ladybug she's always controlling Chat Noir and he never gets any spotlight. fuck off. You shouldn't be alive or watching a great show like Miraculous"
Like okay.....
I wish I could say I'm lost for words but I'm not even in the slightest bit surprised. It just kills me how so many of his stans grow so defensive and attack people for saying things about their favorite predatory cis white boy billionaire. And they call Marinette a million names while blaming her for shit Adrien's done.
Like......I don't even know what to say right now.
👁👄👁 bish what the hell!?!?!
MY GIRL BUILT THIS??????? HER BIG BRAIN???????? OMG????????? SHE’S LIKE 15????
ONLY MARINETTE YALLS…
Thank you so much for this. As a biracial person (half black half white) with very light skin and European features, I have been isolated from other people of African ancestry and I have even once been told that I'm "not black enough", despite the fact that I had only been raised by the black side of my loving family. I hate it when a multiracial person is called "not - enough" because we don't look a certain way. It's why I get so upset at the fact that people consistently used that to describe her. Her looking less Asian doesn't change the fact that she's half Asian and denying that is denying her existence/people who look like her. I get that people are upset, and it's perfectly alright, but that doesn't give you the right to be salty and racist. And the people getting upset that Marinette has blue eyes are just w a c k. Juleka has RED eyes. Sabine, a completely Asian person, has GREY eyes. You can't get mad that Marinette has blue eyes yet not get upset that a completely Chinese person has grey eyes, a European person has red eyes, and that many background characters are shown to have a variety of unusual hair/eye colors. Picking and choosing doesn't validate your argument, it actually undermines it. Okay, I'm done ranting. Have a nice day.
Okay, I have been seeing a lot of posts about Marinette Dupain-Cheng from the Miraculous Ladybug series. For those who don’t know, Marinette is Half Chinese/Half French-Italian.
She has blue hair and blue eyes, so she looks more “white” than Chinese, but does still have some Asian features to her, albeit subtle. I have been seeing a lot of posts saying she is “whitewashed.”
I want to address this because, like Marinette, I am also half Asian, and like Marinette, I have more prominent white features than Asian ones. I am half Vietnamese/Half Scottish-Irish.
I have light brown hair with red highlights due to my Irish side, light brown eyes and look more white than Vietnamese except for subtle Asian features, like straight hair and slightly slanted eyes.
I’m going to break this post up and address each issue.
Issue 1: “Marinette is white washed because she has blue eyes and blue hair! She looks white! Why couldn’t they have given her brown eyes and black hair?!”
Okay…
For one thing, that isn’t how genetics work. Even if one “gene” is more dominate than the other doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. Like I said before, I have RED HIGHLIGHTS in my hair. When I’m in the sun, my hair in a certain angle looks red as heck. It doesn’t mean I am any less biracial. I look more like my mom than my dad, who happens to be white.
I have a friend who is half white and half Mexican. She’s as white as can be with dirty blonde hair and light HAZEL eyes. I didn’t even know she was biracial until I met her mom, who happened to be so dark skinned, I thought she was black, with dark brown eyes and dark brown hair.
Biracial people can look exclusively white. If you don’t believe me, look at Keanu Reeves. He’s half Chinese and sure doesn’t look like it! So yes. It is possible. I will also link some pictures of my family under a cut if no one believes me.
I also want to point out the hypocrisy of this statement. Anime. How many times have we seen anime characters with blonde hair and blue eyes? Yet no one seems to claim those characters are “whitewashed” and they have less chance of getting those features than a biracial person does!
People claim “that’s different, it’s a stylized choice” …well, guess what. So is Marinette’s blue hair. You can’t say one thing for a media and then deny that for another. It’s called being a hypocrite. It’s even mentioned that Marinette’s hair is actually a stylized black and serves as a homage to that kind of style in old comics.
At least Marinette has more chance of having blue eyes than Japanese anime characters, because, you know…she’s BIRACIAL.
Issue 2: “Marinette doesn’t know her Chinese culture or language/Sabine is a bad parent for not teaching her/She’s whitewashed because she doesn’t know her other half culture!”
It may come to a surprise to people, but this actually happens a lot. I don’t know a lick of Vietnamese or about Vietnamese culture because my dad wanted it that way. He wanted me to fit in, so he never taught me any of it. Does that make him a bad parent? No, it doesn’t. He was a great dad (he’s long passed now), and I find it insulting that someone who thinks they don’t teach their children about their culture is a bad parent. How about appreciating Marinette has kind and loving and supportive parents instead?
Issue 3: “Why make her biracial then if they are just going to whitewash her? What about representation?!”
Yeah… representation. It’s still happening. I’m the one being represented. Someone who is biracial who looks white and doesn’t know about her culture. Me. And I’m sure many others like it. Just because her “Asian” side isn’t being represented as much, doesn’t mean she isn’t representing.
Issue 4: “Biracial people should look more like their non-white side than white side or else it’s whitewashing! Miraculous writers are racist, because they are white!”
As I addressed before…looking exclusively white doesn’t make biracial people any less biracial. By saying this and getting offended by “white-looking Marinette”, you’re basically telling people who look like Marinette that we don’t exist or shouldn’t exist.
You are invalidating our existence and that, in turn, actually makes you the racist. Being “white” isn’t racist. It’s just the way people are born. In a time where white supremacy is going around, it’s hard to forget that white people can be the object of racism from other communities. It has happened to me A LOT.
Asians are actually EXTREMELY racist at times. I often went to the Asian market to get Asian food with my dad and Chinese friend. Because I was the only “white-looking” person there, I would get stares and whispers from the Asian Community. I have been told I don’t “look Asian enough”, so I have no say or opinion in how I feel about an Asian issue that involves me, just because I look “white.”
ANY race can get racism directed at them, even white people. It’s just not as often heard of because “white privilege” or something along those lines. Yes, white privilege exists, but it isn’t always prominent. Sometimes white people are the ones who are setup by a minority and those quick to defend a minority will often believe the non-white person over the white person. It does happen.
That is all I have to say on this issue. Thank you all for reading. And as I said, here are some pictures of me and my family, further proving my claim that white looking Asian people do exist.
Keep reading
this. This is what I love for.

моя группа вк
Because you made a blog for thirsty miraculous addicts who love au’s.
People like me.
This side blog has exactly 3,300 followers and my question is why.
I've chosen these people without looking at their age cuz Hollywood doesn't give a shite about that anyway.
AGATHA
Isabelle Fuhrman: she killed it as Clove and Esther. She has the death stare down to a science.
Deva Cassel: She looks similar to the actresses I've chosen for Sophie (since they're supposed to be twins), but still has the dark hair and hazel eyes we see on the cover of the 6th book. The only caveat is that she doesn't have much acting experience and her mother is Monica freaking Bellucci, so I don't know how they'd portray her as unattractive. But regardless, she has that dark and brooding look I'm going for.
Also, I've been following Deva for a while and literally gasped when I saw her in this dress. This is literally how I pictured Agatha during the CoT!
SOPHIE - Whenever I read Sophie I can only ever think of these two
Dove Cameron: She's just so good at acting bubbly and smug! She's so preppy in Liv and Maddie and Schmigladoon! S1. But in Descendants, we see her play a more serious character as Mal. And with her background in singing- ugh, she's just phenomenal. I get such Glinda vibes from her.
But she totally rocks dark hair and a more mature vibe. Just imagine that scene in the first book where Sophie dyes her hair black 😭. Anyways, moving on.
Elle Fanning: She has the round face, blonde hair, and green eyes. If you watched The Great, you can see just how well she plays a sassy and more mature character. There's also the fact that she played Aurora in Maleficent, and I feel like with Sophie herself wanting to be a princess, it would have just been so ironic XD
VANESSA - I was heavily debating on whether I should post this but,
Amanda Seyfried: She really has the range in terms of acting. She also has blonde and green eyes. I can't explain it, but I just see her as Vanessa. And I don't want to hear anyone mention that she's on the younger side because Vanessa is dead.
CALLIS - I've yet to see somebody as Callis, but I have an idea:
Monica Bellucci: In my casting, I have her daughter as Agatha, so I figured why not? It could be this thing where like even though Agatha is not Callis' blood daughter in the book, she is irl.
TEDROS: I don't pay attention to men very much. But I might as well complete the trio-
CHARLES VANDERVAART: specifically blonde Charles Vandervaart. Will not elaborate.
Have a good day!
