speaking of hot takes this one is going to be real controversial but honestly straight couples who aren't accepted for whatever random forbidden love reason always resonated more with me than queer couples who live in an idealistic world where queerphobia straight up doesn't exist. i wish the world was like that but it's not and it doesn't make me feel that happy it just makes me feel a disconnect. of course everyone is allowed to like their things and i don't mind these types of queer media, hell i consume them too i just tend to gravitate towards "realer" stories emotionally

#yes this is about the owl house and even more surprisingly yes this is about howard the duck too #and before you tell me ''but felix toh is a children's show you can't expect them to portray homophobia realistically''#and to that i say:#a) yea and i don't expect them to. dana terrace is allowed to create an escapist world where homophobia doesn't exist.#it just feels kind of invalidating to see lumity praised as the peak of representation like you can't get better than this category #when it doesn't feel like it represents my struggles with being queer #b) toh has portrayed things like murder genocide corpses and other not neccecarily most child friendly subjects #c) dead end paranormal park could portray queerphobia despite being rated a children's show #this is a long rant and there's no real point to it I'm just sharing my opinion #hot takes with felix
