Yeidi AKA Jade (the personal acc)

SO! partner and I just finished one route of deltarune chapter 4 and that ending was definitely uhhh evocative of some unresolved memories... 🫥

I just finished ACOMAF yesterday and I'm still like "!!!!!!!!"
At the risk of sounding like the dorkiest dork, I haven't felt such a strong urge of wanting to live inside a fictional world since I was pre-teen longing for Hogwarts 😭 Take me to Velaris rn plssss

Two examples of the spanish version of Freedom Writers on eBay. One is priced at $123.95 and the other is priced at $82.99

Screencap of segment from Wikipedia that says the following: On March 11, 2008, an English teacher at Perry Meridian High School in Indianapolis, Indiana, Connie Heermann, was suspended for a year and a half without pay for using the Freedom Writers Diary in her classroom against the wishes of the school board. Administrators objected to racial slurs and sexual content in portions of the book. In March 2023, the book was removed from public school libraries in Martin County, Florida. In June 2023, Utah State Senator John D. Johnson called the book pornographic and said that high schools are committing the felony of "accessory to the distribution of pornography to minors" if they have the book available to students. In 2024 the book was banned in Texas by the Katy Independent School District on the basis that the novel is "adopting, supporting, or promoting gender fluidity" despite also pronouncing a bullying policy that protects infringements on the rights of the student.

While searching for baby's first educational material to send along to my spanish-speaking conservative-leaning parent, I found out:
1. the Spanish version of the novel "Freedom Writers" is $90+ available on amazon and ebay.
2. the "Freedom Writers Diary" is banned in Texas

The Wild Thornberrys made me solarpunk.
Also yes Im autistic, why do you ask?

A wonderful art moot added my art acc (@yeidisworld.art) to an "artists I recommend" sort of list and I only noticed when I started getting an influx of followers there and I'm just like 😭 ahh!?

Just want to sit down at the top of these stairs reading a book and occasionally looking up at light filtering on the wall 😭

Trump and Musk attack the FAA — and planes fall out of the sky.

Trump and Musk attack the National Weather Service — and dozens die from tornados.

Trump and Musk cut USAID — and 3.5 million people will die around the world.

They’re bumbling around, and people are DYING.

woe.is.bree 8h Follow Sometimes I find myself imagining how beautiful the U.S. could have been, had it been developed by the indigenous peoples who originally inhabited this land before it was forcibly taken from them by European colonizers. V 972 @ 150 (9 54 V 2

Let me challenge this further: it WAS beautiful. That’s why all these white men wanted it. To them, it was heaven on earth. WE made it that way, by creating strong ecological systems that flourished. Food was never hard to come by. Berries, game, fur was everywhere. (1/2)

That given, I had to pause my reread of Ella Enchanted because a virtual library copy of A Court of Thorns and Roses became available. So I'm eating that up before my allotted time is up :) #acotar

I joined a readalong on storygraph! (join w me, if you'd like!)

a woman in a blue dress is picking up a book from a bookshelf in a library . Alt: Belle from Beauty and the Beast at the bookstore, she's singing and grabbing a ladder. She slides eagerly towards the POV. Behind her are shelves lined with many books. The old bookstore owner smiles up at her.

Yay! I'm so happy to be reading more! :') Still not as fast as I used to be back middle/high school but working my way there.

It also helps that reading is one of my fav ways to manifest resistance. So a lot of energy is going into reading (fiction + nonfiction) and actively using my library card.

ahhh, the iconic dick wall. Place of many funny clips.

You're only in trouble if you get caught You needn't be Ella, if you don't wish to be. I love Ella Enchanted so much but I avoid looking for fanart for it because of the blatant whitewashing of Charmont, who is explicitly stated in text as.....

The fanart readers know what's what.

Prince Char in Ella Enchanted movie played by Hugh Dancy. A white man.

(obnoxious throat clear)
"(He and his father) each had tawny curls and swarthy skin. I had never been near enough to the king to know whether he also had a sprinkling of freckles across his nose, surprising on such a dark face."

The "dark face" in question:

Minnie Driver in Ella Enchanted. She's in her 30s and her hair is long dark and curly.

The Nanny from 101 Dalmatians. She's an elderly woman (about 70s) with gray hair styled in a bun (it is messy in this still.) She wears a black dress with a white collar, cuffs, and apron.

Fairy godmother Mandy also got Hollywoodified. :( She's played by a gorgeous Minnie Driver but she's described as having gray frizzy hair and a double chin.

I used to imagine Nanny from 101 Dalmatians.

Cover of Ella Enchanted book. She looks young, about 16. She has a strong jaw/chin, wide-set eyebrows, a round nose, and a large forehead.

Ella Enchanted movie cover featuring Anne Hathaway playing Ella, traditionally beautifully crafted brows, thin nose, plump lips, silver tiara. She's about 18-19 I think.

Let me be clear, I have not seen the movie, but I know it's a cult fav. And I do love Anne Hathaway.

That given. I grew up with this little smug smirk version on my cover. :( and she got Emma Watson'd.

As an awkward 12yo, I was really partial to the girl on the cover of my book. She looked like me

Rereading one of my favorite childhood books Ella Enchanted, so I can finally watch the movie after I'm done and feel conflicted about it.

A small and nitpicky decades-old rant lightly touching on classic Hollywood white washing and ageism:

Lilith Ritter (played by Cate Blanchett) in Nightmare Alley holding a man's face while looking at him intensely. She is a beautiful sophisticated woman wearing a deep red lipstick, a carefully styled bobcut, a silk blouse, and a pearl necklace

Watching Nightmare Alley, and now I have to live with the sorrow that I'm not an intriguing enough debonair swindler for Cate Blanchett to want to fold my brain like origami.

Graphic saying "So Joann's is CLOSING... where do I get my fabrics now?"

!! COSPLAY RESOURCE -- FABRIC SHOPS LIST !!

We're all super sad about Joann Fabrics closing... now's a great time to start making that list of other places to shop for fabrics online!

Some of my personal favorites: 🧵⬇️

"it's a joke, they're terrible people"

Yeah, they are but that's not the point. It's the language and intention of what you're saying.

Sub/dom allegory is okay because IT IS WHAT IT IS.
It's not hard to see why "haha you're his woman" is problematic to like... women.

Heyooooo quick'o thing'o

I wish I didn't have to say it but it's uncool to try to demean Trump by calling him Musk's First Lady??

Keep on doing the dom/sub shit though (as much psychic damage as it is to imagine either of those two in a sexual context)

But being someone's wife =/= sub.

OH OKAY
