Did you really just skin-lighten a Frida Kahlo self portait

and remove her facial hair

and call her “a wreck”

and then say she couldn’t choose a fucking lipstick to suit her skin tone

after you changed her skin tone

how can one person be everything that is wrong with the world at once

remember that time frida kahlo said white people were boring and had faces like unbaked rolls

yeahhhh

This OP is a great example of someone who thinks they’re being “edgy” and “controversial” by adhering as strongly as possible to upholding oppressive ideologies.

The funniest part of this is that OP calls the re-paint subtle

subtle

  • removing her facial hair is not subtle
  • you might think whitewashing her is subtle but its fuckin not you asshole
  • you didnt just take out the monobrow you thinned her whole eyebrows and made them shorter
  • you reshaped her lips???? like what you thought she fucked up her garish lipstick in the original? you thought she wasn’t fucking SYMMETRIC enoguh or something?
  • you put EYELINER ON HER
  • like what the fuck??
  • do you know anything about frida kahlo 
  • anything at all
  • if you do
  • then you know this is fucked up on so many levels
  • right?
  • either way
  • go choke on a fucking thornbush


Part of me feels like this has to be a joke.

i think it was “intended” as a joke. however, instead of accepting that yeah it’s pretty offensive and being sincere it seems the artist is lapping up all the praise and the “oh those sj warriors, they’re so over sensitive”…

disregarding the fact that Frida was and is one of the most influential women of color in the art world and that she never meant for her self portraits to be “pretty” for anyone else is shitty, so saying “it’s just a joke” kinda makes it worse…

her self portraits make most people, especially women, feel comfortable and at peace with themselves and the painful experiences they live through, and when you joke about that and gussy her up, i meant shit, how do you EXPECT people to take it…?

yes, people have done the same kind of repaints to various artists’ Venus’ and DaVinci’s Mona Lisa, and that shit was problematic too. you don’t see people doing repaints of Van Gogh’s self portraits makin’ him look like a male model, or Michelangelo’s Creation of Man- why don’t we trim down “Man” a bit, define those abs, give him a sexy tan and make him more well endowed? hell no, that’d be offensive, marring great works of art and all that noise

why call yourselves artists and then not take some responsibility for the work you put out there. your work is highly visible, you’re not doing this in a vacuum, and you know it, especially when putting it on the internet. so you really need to examine yourself and let people call you on your shit, ‘cause that’s how you grow. making a living at art is a wonderful thing, but getting to a better place with yourself and your work should also be a priority.

i think if i’d had a reminder all this time that my uncle existed, that my mom had a brother, that my grandfather had another child who was just never around, who apparently felt no need to help his sister take care of his father, i’d have popped a blood vessel in my brain by this point.
and now it’s all setting in,
and he might be coming to stay at our house for Grampa’s funeral.
hip fucking hooray.

So we can all reblog pictures of cats and clever gifs and funny memes, but we can't reblog information on A LAW THAT COULD DESTROY THE INTERNET. if you wanna KEEP reblogging cats and memes and gifs, then you need to STOP THIS FUCKING LAW.

Terry Thompson, Muskingum County Animal Farm Owner, Allegedly Killed Self After Freeing Exotic Animals

Sheriff’s deputies shot nearly 50 wild animals – including 18 rare Bengal tigers and 17 lions – in a big-game hunt across the Ohio countryside Wednesday after the owner of an exotic-animal park threw their cages open and committed suicide in what appeared to be one last act of spite against his neighbors and police.
