I feel like we don’t really acknowledge the absolutely unhinged levels of moral superiority people hold over fans of ofmd. Like I’m not gonna get into specifics but it’s so completely bonkers to me that people will see enjoyment of MUCH more problematic media and skip along their merry way… But then when a show with a diversity of skin tones, sexuality, gender, ability, AND writers gets popular, suddenly you’ll have people practically telling you to get a red hot poker up the ass if you dare to still like it when it’s not the most virtuous bastion of media to every exist.

Yadada yada yada that Sarah Z video asking why we hold diverse media to a much higher moral standard than we do anything else

SO as an aromantic villain liker, I have to admit that whether aro or not, there's something compelling about Philip perhaps clinging to Caleb in part because of an alienation from the Other way of acquiring a Good God-Loving Family in his day and age. because if Caleb spurns their witch hunting dreams to go fall in love with a witch that's a perceived betrayal to Philip on two fronts, the witch sympathizing and the abandoning Philip for romance. it's compelling in a "Belos selectively ignores all the norms of his own oppressive belief system that he spurns, when he could have easily found a home amongst the freaks if he let go of his hate" way. it's compelling in an "adds even more parallels to Lilith, who avoids following his path, and shows that people who start in a similar place, with both genuine flaws and genuine instances of being wronged by the world, the latter not entirely unrelated to aromanticism, are still able to find joy instead of hatred, because aromanticism is not a destiny to endlessly suffer nor a destiny to do evil" kind of way.

BUT. unfortunately. I've seen way too many posts that just spew garbage like "Belos is evil because he's incapable of love, obviously! and the heroes are good and moral and (cough) not subhuman (cough) because they actually love people 🥰," just total horseshit right at the intersection of aphobia and ableism. just a total admission that they don't think love can ever motivate people to hurt anyone, that they don't think they can hurt anyone they love and no one they love could really hurt them, that love is a get out of jail free card when doing harm while harm is a get banned from love and humanity permanently card, so. basically, we can't have nice things.

If you had all the money in the world, what would you buy and why? Bonus points if it’s related to paleontology, though I also won’t say no to a feedist answer

i’d buy land in incredibly ecologically sensitive areas for conservation and restoration tbh… i love fossils so much, so maybe i’d also fund research/prep labs/collection curators, BUT the truth is the world we have now is more important…

i’d focus on grassland and prairie land too <33 trees are cool and all but grasslands are rapidly shrinking and not nearly as popular (bc public interest in land cover type undoubtedly improves whether or not smthn will be conserved)—not to mention soil health is very important, agriculture worldwide relies on soils developed over thousands of years of grassland existence… AND they’re an excellent carbon sink!! the expansion of grasslands in the miocene is largely the reason for the climate we have now!!

i’d also fund everything i could in order to reduce water scarcity in texas and through the southwest tbh

I am also very stoked for the Spike & Dash arc of TEra because Dash is such a bro for Spike, Spike is having to go through BS because of [REDACTED] and the entire time Rainbow, who is not required to go through [REDACTED] with him does it anyway because, “I WOULD,,,, DIE FOR U BRO,,,, ITS YOU AND ME FOREVER,,,,,, I RESPECT U,,,, UR MY BRO,,,,”

feeling unwell about timebomb again, did you know that in the russian league of legends localisation ekko's 'I had a crush' was turned into 'I almost fell in love with you!', why do I feel like it makes their situation even more heartbreaking???

[saricess]

"I can't hear you over the sound of the eight billion glasses and plates clinking, and the very high possibility that I'm going to lose my job, and the fact that everyone at this charity dinner hates me but we have to act nice to each other, and the weird lighting in this room, and these fucking Spanx!" - Katherine Hastings, probably

Unikitty! > MANY CHARACTERS

Inanimate Object Characters List | Entry: 23

Remember how I put LEGO in the Honourable Mentions because it didn't really count? Well, related to the LEGO universe, there IS one show that DOES include quite some anthropomorphic object characters - among which is one of the five main character!

It's the Unikitty! Show.

And you can see on the cover of the series the main character I was talking about: Richard! He was definitely one of the best characters of the show, hahahaha. Just an old, grumpy 1×3 brick. Perfection!

TV Series: Unikitty! (2017-2020)

---- SPOTLIGHT CHARACTERS ----

RICHARD [and more]

Characters: Richard, Bim Bom, Toaster and Toast, Beatsby

marvel seeing the huge fan reception to these two and scrambling to pretend they got absolutely anything to do (in the first krakoa event they were even included in) other than sell variant covers, park the jet, and/or propagate gd’s deadpool/rogue ship is so fucking funny
