Toby Fox being worried about fans having a negative reception to characters he likes or finds funny (Spamton, Tenna, etc) feels a bit silly given how excellent he is at writing until you remember that a) even the best of writers still feel insecure about things and get anxiety and b) literally everything about the fandom reception to Alphys at launch

PART 1

And then I ended up loving the stupid naked rat show.

Happy 3 Year Anniversary, ROTTMNT Movie! You were what really got me into this fandom and I'll forever be grateful for it!

If you're confused, this is actually Part 2 of my initial reaction to Rise. You can see Part 1 HERE. TED Talk below...

In retrospect it kind of makes sense why I would fall so hard for the movie's opening. Leonardo and Mikey were my favorite growing up and I've always been a sucker for a good post apocalyptic, father/son bond, self-sacrificial, time travel story (thanks DBZ). I ended up eating through Season 1 in about a week and then had no means of watching Season 2. Ironically I started Replica when I was stuck in this weird floaty space between seeing all of Season 1, but none of Season 2 or the actual movie.

Even then it was not actually the show that triggered my passion, but rather all the amazing fan work I was exposed to after watching season one. My Pinterest and Twitter feed quickly filled up with turtle fanart and before I knew it I had become hyper fixated on something new for the first time in 7 years. It shocks me that I'm still so invested, but I think it's just because all the people I've met in this wonderful community have continued to inspire me though it all! You all rock!

btw i found there was an interview with turner at the end of thick as thieves and. when she said the story parallels the epic of gilgamesh

[swordbyte]

getting a new interest that it feels like nobody gaf about is so excruciating what do you mean people aren't going ham nuts over this thing. please start losing your minds

[swordbyte]

actually wait this one too it was funny

liveblog from priv bc well i likes to talk. i swear turner is a fucking genius at being perfectly frustrating. in the sense that she manages tension and interest with the plot so well it sucks you in and you finish 200 pages in a day. and when you think youre picking up on the twist, she jumps out AGAIN with another one.

finished thick as thieves today (blood on my face from gnawing at my enclosure) it was extremely good

"The normalization, the acceptance, the embrace, the belief that a settler-colonial project can be reformed, can be saved, that it's somehow not rotted to the core, needs to be combated. When you normalize the right of one settler-colonial project to exist, you're letting colonized people know that your solidarity is conditional... Any excuse you give for normalization of a settler colonial project is fundamentally a betrayal to colonized people all around the world, especially when you yourself are a settler... Let me make this plain: If you accept 1776, how are we to believe that you reject 1948?"
