Stop thinking: “I’m not talented enough to execute this concept.” Start thinking: “I’m going to be a stronger artist when I’ve finished this piece.”
This is a fixed mindset vs. a growth mindset.
Your abilities are not static, and any challenges you have, anything that turns out different from how you imagined, is not evidence of failure, just a struggle towards improvement.
We actually love Speedy. Grew up watching him and, as a Mexican myself, was never offended. My Papi watched him when he was a kid and loved having, what he felt, was positive representation of his culture.
Quit complaining on behalf of other people who aren’t actually offended.
Those are fake woke people who want to feel CUlturally relevant. Speedy is amazing. Mario with a sombrero is amazing. We latinos dont give a shit. Cultural representation, as stereotypical as it is, is something we feel proud of. It literally gets me annoyed at people who claim something in behalf of some culture when the culture itself accepts it and relishes in it.

Minors, please be careful. I can’t stop you from using these memes. No one can. But be aware of who you use them with. If you make a joke of the like with an adult, and they reply pushing the “joke” further – it’s a big red flag. If an adult uses these memes with you, run. If possible, try avoiding using them with adults too – it’s not your responsibility, it’s true. But better safe than sorry.
This also stands between minors of different ages – a 13 year old is a minor. So is a 17 year old. Is it okay for a 17 year old to tell a 13 year old that they’ll be their (insert x/y/z alignement)? Absolutely not. Be mindful of your age gaps, be mindful of the differences in maturity between you. And stay safe.
This is okay to reblog, and I highly encourage it, especially from adults.
People who say bi erasure doesn’t happen need to realize Freddie Mercury is known as the most famous homosexual man when he identified himself as bisexual. If that’s not bi erasure I don’t even know.
Also PoC erasure, most people don’t know he was 100% Indian
Specifically he was Parsi. Also raised Zeroastrian.
