i've said this before but my problem with "good ganondorf" being portrayed as defanged and harmless has less to do with this in itself being a problem and more to do with that being the only way he's portrayed at all tbh—because it really speaks to how people perceive him. given even the slightest amount of edge or capacity for anger or violence and suddenly he can't be anything but a bad guy

back in the day there was this popular youtuber post that had a message that essentially said “your heroes have been through so much and they succeeded, you can too” and had all these youtubers and listed their biggest trouble that they overcame in life and some peoples were abuse and others were diseases like addiction and cancer and generally listed a bunch of harrowing experiences. phil’s was that he was bullied, which was one of the ‘lighter’ topics listed. and then dan’s was that he’s left handed. all of those traumatic and difficult topics and dan’s was that he has to get special scissors for his left hand dominance.

well i posted something abt the backyardigans new animation thing so i think i'll post a follow-up to it
read from backyardigans wiki mentioning a producer talking about the reboot, but with no sources, then i found an article talking about it that links here:
tldr it's made by a team and they meant it as a tribute to the creator Janice Burgess (whether you want to take it face value or not)
i still couldn't find what were the wiki's sources on the voices tho. if it were true it's just a bit annoying that no sources were cited,,
edit: found from their instagram posts (the voices pretty much confirm it on their accounts too but here's from their agency i think)

I say this as someone with mental disabilities, sometimes you just gotta take the L and do it. Maybe it'll cost you and send you into negative spoons but sometimes you gotta. We have a human debt we owe to one another and we have to fight for each other.
Disabilities make things hard to do safely, without pain, etc. Where you can, seek accomodations, ask for help, live your life, and do good in the world in the ways you can.
What we can't do with our disabilities? We can't sit here and wallow and use them as a shield.

WIP meme: you find yourself in a void?
this is what im considering my main wip right now :) have maybe my favorite scene!
(link to wip list)
And Josh is smiling at him in a way that makes him feel at home, like they just hung out yesterday.
Maybe as far as Josh is concerned, that’s about how long it’s been.
Neku never exactly thought to ask how god-time works.
Now that they’re face to face again, (finally), (finally? has he been waiting for this?), he can’t think of anything to ask. To say.
Josh is raising his arm up like he’s reaching for a hug, but he may as well be a thousand miles away from where Neku’s standing, and it comes off more as some kind of a victory pose. Or like a preacher calling for silence before beginning a sermon.
“Hello, Neku.” His voice sounds distant, and yet like it was whispered right in his ear. It sounds like warm sunlight running down his back. It’s wrong. Josh laughs softly, and as he speaks again his voice splits, crackles and warps until it sounds just like how Neku remembered. “How have you been?”

Random 3 am rant: the whole concept of a "pick me girl" is super (hetero)sexist and I wish it never became a thing... now some ppl are using it to call other people out for harmless if slightly pretentious things (and sometimes it's even used if they just happen to have a different opinion on something)
Like do people not realise that by looking down on "not like other girls" people and even verbally putting them down and dismissing things they do as being done just for attention from guys, you are yourself trying to assert your superiority and be "not like other girls". Even if someone does try to put down other women for no reason, you should want to help and understand them and not mock them lol (or at the very least you should be civil). Everyone should just go home to watch the Vivian and Elle scenes from legally blonde
