I love that 2003 tmnt was like "we've killed shredder a lot, but you know it's for real this time because we changed the theme song"

I've done several forms of martial arts and can answer some things! Basically, it depends on the martial arts. The highest possible ranking in any martial art is 10th degree, which is used in several systems like karate, Shaolin Kempo, and a few others I believe. But not every system goes up to 10; some only go to up to 3, some go up to 9. There are also some systems that don't have ranking at all, like Wing Chun (Bruce Lee is known for and popularized it with his movies)

Btw no one asked but most people (like the Danny Phantom show writers) don't actually know what a ninth degree black belt is.

There are only like two hundred people in the world with a ninth degree black belt in anything and it requires 'dedicated your entire life to it' levels of experience. Most of the time, you'll not only have spent time teaching it, but also will own a martial arts school.

It's also important to note that the exact requirements differ for different disciplines, and advanced black belts require a dedicated understanding of that discipline's philosophy.

The idea that Valerie is a ninth degree black belt is stupid (sorry Valerie) because of the precise experience requirements, which are measured in years (not competence), and even the idea that Maddie is one is pretty questionable. Valerie would be a third degree at most, while Maddie would maybe be a fifth or sixth.

The character implications for both of them, however, are pretty fun! It takes dedication and discipline, and it implies that martial arts was a huge part of both their lives even before ghost hunting was. For Maddie in particular, it implies that actively practicing martial arts was once as big a part of her life as science was - though I imagine having kids dropped it down the priority list.

Anyway. I don't care that it's canon. Neither of them is a ninth degree black belt, and martial arts is a much bigger part of their lives than is usually assumed.

Hey what if all of you stopped hating Jews

[mrstealyogender]

Watching tmnt 2012 before rottmnt was such a good call, the references are so good

My sister was taking hummus out of the fridge and our brother was like "I hate Hamas!" So she looks at him and is like "... this is HUMmus. Hamas are terrorists." Without missing a beat, he goes "well, I don't like either of them"

When I finish tmnt 2012, I want to watch Rise! Do I watch the movie first or the show first?

I'm thinking of making a jumblr side blog but I'm on the fence about it. New jumblr friends/mutuals: what do y'all think? Are your blogs side blogs? Or do you have side blogs for fandom stuff? Has it been worth it for you to separate those things?

Every time I open social media to dick around and look at cute videos of animals, I am instead bombarded with how many jew haters there are in the world, I'm so fucking exhausted

[mrstealyogender]

The fact that Mulan did all of that in a BINDER is fucking amazing to me

I can't even describe how terrified I've been about the attacks in Israel. Are my friends ok? My family? Can I vent to my goyishe friends about these sort of things? Or have the antisemitic brain worms (propaganda) gotten to them? I'm heartbroken and so fucking scared

[mrstealyogender]
