"if we make america worse and more of a dictatorship that will be even harder to unravel and make it the way we want the country to be, maybe then everyone will join our Glorious Revolution!" bb girl you cant even be in the same room with someone who thinks you should vote, how in tf do you think you're gonna unite people to fight in The Revolution with you? it's gonna be you and your 5 friends, i hate to break it to you.

When someone has been posting anti-voting, both-sides-are-the-same propaganda for months, and then posts about the Texas Supreme Court banning gender affirming care for trans kids.

there’s something so personal about the scene in fantasy high s1e7 where gorgug calls himself stupid & fabian, who up to that point had basically entirely been acting like the bad kids (especially gorgug) were beneath him & had also been the one calling ragh stupid two lines ago, instantly says “okay, do not put yourself down like that. don’t you dare do that to yourself.” like it was obvious he liked the bad kids at that point but the instinct to protect his friends manifesting as an immediate strong refusal of gorgug’s self-deprecating talk kills me. that boy loves his friends so bad oh my god i feel sick.

One of my new co workers wants to come to the science muesums with me and I will be so normal and neurotypical about it

just some thoughts re: Dale Dimmadome's potential redemption arc

(cw for mentions of abuse and neglect) i see a lot of folks hoping that Dale Dimmadome gets some kind of redemption arc - and i'd love to see that too! the writers would do an excellent job as they're doing with all of FOPANW... ...but at the same time, i almost hope that that doesn't happen. FOPANW is noticeably less cynical than the OG series, with a great deal more optimism and less pain: especially with Hazel being such a bright protagonist and having wonderful, loving parents. but Dev and the relationship with his father feels like something straight out of the original show.

i think it's one of the things that made the original Fairly Oddparents so beloved - lots of us could really relate to Timmy and other characters who were routinely mistreated by the adults in their lives, even in a cartoonish way. i think Dale's abuse and neglect of Dev is in line with the more emotionally sensitive writing we're seeing out of kid's cartoons now: it feels very real, and it's so nice to see that type of pain validated by giving Dev a fairy godparent 💖 i'm very curious as to which direction they'll go in. if they do give Dale a redemption arc, i wonder if they'll go through a whole Dimmadome lineage thing and also address Dale's past history at the lemonade sweatshop. it feels like, compared to the original, they're bringing up this topic in a much more nuanced and real way, which is why so many people are comparing Dale to Clay Puppington: a sinister combo of neglect and manipulation which, if this were a more adult show, could become very dark. i think either outcome could be very satisfying. if Dale gets a redemption arc and learns to love his son, treat him better, and let go of his trauma, that would be brilliant - and i think more likely. however, if the writers choose to go for a very real 'you don't need to seek approval from people who harm you' message, i think they'll do it an age-appropriate way, and with a lot of skill 🔥🔥🔥

funniest and most heartwarming thing i rediscovered on my rewatch is when karin roasts sakura about poisoning naruto and then kakashi, who loves all of his kids very much and understands their behavior and isn’t upset with them about their choices but has also been under ABSURD amounts of stress for all of season 10, just bursts out laughing ❤️

if you claim to be pro-trans but you draw the line at transgender kids receiving gender affirming care, then you are not pro-trans. this applies to both cis and trans people. this is also a reminder that trans people can be transphobic.
