"I paid a lot of attention to skin color. Also to using multiple languages. Lots of times when you watch anime, the characters all have white skin — all the characters in fantasy stories all have white skin, which I never liked," Watanabe said in Cowboy Bebop: The Jazz Messengers

“It was Watanabe who wanted to have several groups of ethnic diversity appear in the series.  Cowboy Bebop won awards specifically for its culturally diverse cast” (which was unusual for anime at the time)

They do this every. single. year. For those new to the struggle, please know that this is not unique to the current aggression, but instead a longstanding genocidal tradition.

At risk of sounding like an old person, why in the fresh fuck is this news and why bother covering it XXL? This is a woman who didn’t consent to this bullshit and here you, a “reputable magazine,” go sharing screenshots of childish garbage like you ain’t seen a titty before

Welp. Look who’s being chopped from my 2024 itinerary. I’ll see the Door of No Return elsewhere, or never.

Tommy Tuberville apparently thinks people are afraid to go out for ice cream in New York City, even though the homicide rate there is one third of the rate in his home state of Alabama.
Hope @JoeBiden enjoyed going out for ice cream in NYC while the rest of the city is afraid of crime and migrants.
