whentheopressedbecometyrants asked: I still stand by my point that people should QQ less and PEWPEW more.

We all do, we all do…

Anonymous asked: That Pepper Ann clip needs to be shown to everyone! Seriously. It explains it all so well.

I probably would have never understood why I was wrong had it not been for that PepperAnn video. I agree, show it to people.

Anonymous asked: If you just apologize for the picture and try to change your actions by not doing it again, people wouldn't be so pissed off. Instead your justifying your actions to a group of minorities about how the white girl is right and the Indians are wrong, when it's their culture you're appropriating. Why can't you be the big girl you're making yourself out to be and apologize? It doesn't have to be to apology to those who attacked you, but an apology to Indians in general.

You are so right. Honestly, I now understand how it’s seen as offensive/racist. I just think that it wasn’t initially explained to me, and I was so oblivious to the reason why they were upset with me. All I saw was the words, and not the reason behind them. After research, and someone who posted that Pepper Ann clip lol, I am sorry. That’s all.

Anonymous asked: So you're racist, ableist, into slut shaming and an apologist with white privilege with I'm betting huge entitlement issues. I would say that makes you a special snowflake but sadly really makes you like every other pathetic wastrel out there that thinks they're better than everyone else and the world should fawn over them. I really hope one day you grow up and realize that there's more to offer than cultural appropriation and insulting people for educating you.

I really hope that you realize the picture was not intentionally racist. I also hope you realize that there are actual racists in the world who genuinely support killing people of races they do not agree with, and will openly admit that. Perhaps you should spend more of your time patronizing them? It might be slightly more productive then leaving an anonymous paragraph in my ask. I am certainly not racist, I don’t care if that picture is perceived as racist because I know I’m not lol. That’s all that really matters in the big scheme. Have a good day.

Anonymous asked: While I can see your logic, two wrongs don't make a right dear. I see you're trying really hard to sound smart, which may fool you and others, but to people that know these words and use them appropriately it really just sounds rather silly (sure you may be using the right words, but too much of something will just negate it). However, I commend you for at least trying to sound smart, and just remember practice makes perfect!

Actually, it’s less of trying to “sound smart” and more of my method of communicating a point. That’s my vocabulary. I intend to keep improving my writing; which, in my opinion, really isn’t horrible considering it’s literate and clear…Anyway, thanks for the half-ass compliment.

Anonymous asked: LOL we're not "searching for something to be offended by". You posted an offensive and racist picture on tumblr. You put it out there for people to see. We didn't have to search for it. You're trying to make yourself sound like the "bigger person", but you can't even apologize. Instead you call us irrelevant. How white privilege of you.

Actually, some of the blogs I went on said that they searched for pictures tagged “Native American” to find “Hipsters in headdresses”. Sounds like searching for something to be offended by? Yeah?

zyyllyhoo asked: I like how you think people that take issue to cultural appropriation are crazy. By dressing up as a "stereotypical indian" you effectively erase the existence of hundreds of different tribes. It's not okay to do that. It's like dressing up as one of the Masai people and saying "LOOK I'M A STEREOTYPICAL AFRICAN!" That's racist and erasing. So is dressing up like an "indian".

Well, if I’m going to do something, I’ll do it effectively I suppose.

Anonymous asked: you need to lay off the self-tanner because you're looking kind of orange. I know that's "the style of the times" but you really do look silly. plus a little less mascara please you look like a raccoon fucked an oompaloompa

Lol, “the style of the times”? Just stop. I’ll probably keep applying my makeup the same way, considering I am a freelance makeup artist, and I intend to go to school for it. What I don’t understand is how any of this is relevant to you 0.o

whentheopressedbecometyrants asked: I would like to advise the Tumblr community to QQ less and PEWPEW more.
