Video description: a 19 second pixel art animation of Martin Blackwood in episode 170 of The Magnus Archives. Martin is a fat man with reddish brown curly hair and light skin wearing a dark blue cable knit sweater, black jeans and brown shoes. He is standing with his back to the viewer in a white room with a wooden floor. Fog covers the ground and Martin's body up to his shoulders.

A clock can be heard ticking in the background and the fog moves as the video plays. Martin says "Maybe the fog's here because I want it here." Martin moves his arm up to head height, and says "Is that why I opened the windows?" As he goes through the motion of opening a non-existent window, a blue tinted cloud of fog forms over his head and he puts his arm back down. His shoulders slump down and he says, defeated "Maybe I asked the fog to come." A few seconds pass and the fog around his head starts to dissipate as he straightens up, saying "No." He turns to the right and then to face the viewer and continues "No, no – no, no, no, that’s not true, I – I remember!", his mouth moving in time with the words. From this angle we see he has one hand in his pocket and holds a small tape recorder with the other. He wears large round glasses that are completely white from the fog and has a streak of white in the hair hanging over his forehead. End description.

And here's a bonus piece cause I decided to restart to make animation easier after drawing this xD

ID: a pixel art piece of Martin sitting on a wooden chair with his hands at his side. He looks similar to before but is seen from an angle. There is low hanging fog covering the floor and his legs, as well as a smaller cloud of fog in front of his face. End ID

my dream as a fanfic writer is to write a story which people want to talk to me about and send asks about afterwards and discuss things the characters did and the symbolism and meanings behind certain lines and I'll be all "hehe thanks" but irl I'll be in literal tears because I wrote something that means something to someone

ngl the "im white so i dont talk abt any characters' race ever bc im afraid of accidentally saying something racist" approach to fandom is like. very weak. imo.

like first of all: i get that "i dont incorporate race into my media analysis because i'm afraid of messing up" comes from a different place than "i don't incorporate race into my media analysis because I Don't See Race 😊 there is only The Human Race." but it has the same functional effect, right? that effect being that your analysis of [INSERT MEDIA HERE] ignores the very real way that race impacts people.

second of all: it feels kinda lazy! like ur saying "i dont know enough abt race to feel comfortable commenting on how race affects this show and i dont care enough to learn." the only way to become more comfortable discussing race is to actually practice discussing race. but when i see people saying this it feels like they're saying "i'm white, which means i don't know how to talk about race, and i don't have to know how to talk about race, and i don't ever have to know how to talk about race, so i'm choosing to never learn how to talk about race."

third of all: just because you don't openly talk about race doesn't mean you're any less likely to accidentally say or do something racist. implicit biases run deep, y'all. it's probably already there in your interpretation of the show. but the "i don't want to accidentally say something racist" implies that you are positive that your interpretation of the show isn't racist. and i'm not saying you're wrong. but i'm saying that if a person of color tells you that something you said about [INSERT MEDIA HERE] was racist, you better be prepared to actually listen and not just brush them off because "i can't be racist! i purposefully never talk about race just to make sure i'm not racist!"

which brings me to my final point: if you do accidentally say something racist... literally just apologize. if someone says you've been doing something racist, apologize and stop doing that thing. it's literally not that hard. i've done it. i've seen other people do it. "i'm scared of being called racist!" is such a weak excuse im tired of it. getting called racist is not the end of the fucking world. calm the fuck down and grow a spine. jesus.

C'mon, let's get a closer look.
