ok who the hell looked at this creature and went
“im going to turn this thing blue and give it oversized gloves and shoes
and make it the fastest thing on the planet”
I think it was Sega. I just googled it and apparently they created a character like you described up there called Sonic the Hedgehog.
^ omfg lmao
also omg the temple has yelp reviews.
“I felt intrusive as people worshiped. I dropped in on a Tuesday after work and would have liked for someone to explain the rules, and rituals. I got a little lost at one point and was unsure of what areas I was allowed access into. I would love for someone to show me around and explain things to me.”
and
“If you’re setting up a tour, plan on spending about 2 hours at the temple. I visited this for a high school geography class, and the man who took us through the facility had a 15 minute talk for everything he showed us. Nevertheless, it was a very interesting experience, and I am grateful that we were given such a comprehensive tour showcasing the temples and the Hindu religion. The length of it just caught me off guard. I learned a ton from the visit, and the architecture was breathtaking.”
AND THE KICKER:
“For some reason I believe that there is something inherently wrong with Yelping a house of worship. However, I will fudge that belief for a moment and review this Hindu temple. When I was in high school, I had the unique opportunity to take a survey class on non-western religions. I was an outsider looking in when I visited this place, but I found it to be amazing…an eye-opener of the grandest proportions. Our class was escorted into a side room, where we removed our shoes, and ushered into the main worship area. I saw gaunt long-haired men wrapped in white and saffron robes bowing in obeisance to humongous statues. Some of them wore beaded necklaces. Some placed various fruit or nut offerings into small bowls before the statues. From what I recollect, they are not statues but gods and goddesses. It isn’t simply a different word. Their holy men really believe that these giant hunks of carved rock are actually deities. This fascinated me because it seemed so far removed from the religious traditions to which I was exposed as a young person.”
Congrats, Evelyn, you get an A+ in bullshit orientalist writing skillz!
1. shaking my head at whoever fucking made a Yelp for a temple
2. wow i didn’t know giant carvings of mother mary and christ were far removed from your (probably Christian) religious traditions. go fuck yourself, evelyn.
Aaaaaaaaand, this is one of the MANY reasons why I left the Catholic church. Whitesplaining EVERYWHERE and treating other religions as if they were museums for them to inspect and approve of.
So yall know I’m going to keep 100…I made a Twitter for Fuckyeahfamousblackgirls as you know, I follow about 200 people. I search up certain celebrities: news, good, uplifting comments by people of them. So of course as you know, ignorant shit is retweeted on your timeline probably daily.
The dark skin-fucking-light skin bullshit was retweeted on my timeline a few times. And it was all fucking disgusting. I searched “dark skin” in the search and while I did see like four really cute, sensible and positive messages which really made me smile, this was the majority in a 40 minute span of tweets for the word “dark skin” were still just appalling. And most of the tweets were praising dark-skinned guys and downing dark-skinned women: everything from dark-skinned women have no right wearing red lipstick and pink lipsticks, blonde hair, certain colors of clothing to attractive dark skinned women being a rarity, like 1 out of a million. This shit has to stop!
I don’t know what it’s like to be a dark skinned woman, so I don’t know if the internet exaggerates how you’re ridiculed and treated in your every day life, but what I see on the internet every day from my own people makes me wonder where we are headed.
To every dark skinned person (not just females) I’m apologizing as an African American to you for your beauty being misunderstood, for your existence being made into a joke because of mind control placed upon the African American community. It hurts me because I’m Black. I see you hurting and I hurt. I see the self-hatred and I hurt. I think you’re BEAUTIFUL, REGAL and I see my ancestors when I see you so it’s something that fucks with me. The division of us really looks pathetic. As you’ve seen, we’ve been on a serious dark-skin spam because we’re so fucking sick and tired of people still feeding into this mindless, cow shit.
You know what bothers me most? I’ve noticed that about 80 percent of the tweets are by dark skinned people themselves. Are we suffering that severely from self-hatred? Like these people are making these delusional tweets as if they are light-skinned and as if making fun of other dark-skinned people makes them one of the “light skinned” people.
My mission for all of you is, whether your light, brown or dark as midnight, if you follow people on Twitter who degrade dark-skinned people, don’t laugh it off and constantly take it. Don’t encourage it. Unfollow them.
You listen to a Lil Wayne track or another rapper’s song and he’s clowning on dark-skinned women…Recycle bin that bullshit. We need to take a stand against this. We’ve been tolerate with this behavior for so fucking long and it’s about to be 2012.
Do you know that the retweets of these were typically by dark-skinned females? Do better babies. Please make sure you tell your nieces, cousins and daughters that they are beautiful because I’d hate for them to be the assholes in the photoset and bullying other dark-skinned black people.
