waree is a symbol of fear.
not just in the sense that she invokes fear in the kids, but that she is born of fear. she refuses to step outside her comfort zone, insisting on sticking to the syllabus. she can’t believe that the students would still want to protest in the face of the curse, straight up asking them why they’re not afraid. she cowers next to the principal, bringing up “transgressions” irrelevant to the main point of the committee, sticking to her side in the exact same way akk tried to do with her in the classroom in ep 2.
but once everything comes crashing down, she reaches out to ayan, reading historical articles outside the syllabus. taking the fear away impacts everyone, not just the kids.

those "dragon age fans are mad that baldur's gate 3 fans have something/how come they get to be happy" posts are so funny to me b/c i legit thought the venn diagram of people who would be into these two games was a circle.
like real talk, instead of pining for da4/staring jealously at bg3 enjoyers, you too can pick up bg3 (available now if you have pc, in september if you're on console), you will probably enjoy the shit out of it and it will keep you warm through the long nights/weeks/months/years until da4 comes out
(also check out divinity original sin 2 while you're about it! similar vibes, lots of hot npcs to romance, including a broody ancient skeleton man who is weirdly hot, fun combat to be had, plot to enjoy, corpses to eat ԅ(☉Д☉)╮)

Was remembering some fan art of Molly and a few others as the Calamity Trio. Had a moment where I thought it would be amusing if Amphibia and TGAMM switched storylines. You have Anne and her family moving into a house already inhabited by the Plantars and then LA apparently has a bunch of Amphibians hiding in plain sight. Meanwhile Molly, Libby, and Andrea mess with a calamity box that sends them to the ghost world and Molly is taken in by Scratch.
And then I realized that-if you kept certain details (especially spoiler ones) and used them correctly-both stories would ensure a MUCH happier ending for both best friend duos. I’ll have to explain another time but it was a pleasant realization.

As usual, in social movements the marginalized person is the one who needs to be centered, and the support shouldn’t be centered on how the movement affects other, but Land Back and decolonization is one of those Curb-Cut Effect things that benefits most people.
If Land Back magically happened here tomorrow, I’d figure that after several years and after everything stabilizes, it will turn out that most to-be-former-settlers won’t miss America at all, and the only people who will actually miss the US are people who enjoy exploiting other humans and who can’t live without occupying an upper caste above Indigenous folks* and other people. (I also figure these people would leave Turtle Island in a huff, loudly proclaiming their departure and how unfair everything is, like a person leaving a Facebook group because it supports trans people.)
*who emphatically are the main characters here, and our feelings as settlers absolutely shouldn’t matter as part if the ethical and moral calculus. Even if societal justice benefits no one but the vulnerable group, it’s still a good for humanity and should be done.

Watching sports live is so much fun because even the straightest cis man there will have his one Special Boy on the team, his Blorbo. He will cheer his Special Boy on. He may spend hundreds of dollars on a jersey with his Special Boy's name on it. He'll curse out the rest of the team for every mistake but his Special Boy has done nothing wrong, ever, in his life. And at no point will he ever admit that what he has is a crush.

I have a weariness of Star Wars that may well last the entire rest of my life, but I would leap straight into the air at the chance to see the exhibit of the costumes that I went to forever ago.

the way natori talks to natsume in that one scene just kinda reads as someone who’s given up on himself and really doesn’t want this person he sees himself in to make the same mistakes and feel the same sadness but it’s like babygirl you’re TWENTY-THREE you are NOT beyond help😭
