I have 0 Idea if this is og or not but here's a gravity Falls au I made (still some missing details idk about uhh more info below)

Welcome to 'putting the R in Fiend' au

(This is almost unreadable but wtv)

So basically instead of Gideon summoning bill at the end of s1 he summons him at the start and bills down with it until Gideon brings up Stanford name and so he's like 'how the hell did he already escape the multi verse? ' so he spys on the mystery shack instead of making a deal with Gideon and he's wondering well where's ford I was expecting to see him leave the house at least once so he makes a deal with Mable 'you give me a physical form and I won't invade your grunkles mind and destroy the mystery shack' so she accepts and makes him a structure out of wood that looks almost exactly like him (it's pretty short probably around Gideons height) and he posses it and hangs out with Mable while trying to find ford (never finds him obviously) and at the end of ep1 Mabel tells dipper about bill and he's obviously not very happy about his sister giving a demon a physical form. And so they just experience the adventures with bill (also he's very flammable cuz yk wood) and hide him from Stan (still figuring out some things but that's basically the premise of it)

Yes, the Victorian era in which Abbott was writing included repressive attitudes, but even contemporary reviewers were taken aback by Abbott’s characterisation of women. Perhaps just as galling, the description of women as unintelligent yet dangerous serves very little narrative purpose, and distracts from and undermines the more useful elements of the book.

?!!??!?!?!?!? You got paid to write this as an adult getting paid money!!! How is the point flying over your head this far???

oh good the two comment people left on the article are also pointing this out.

I generally agree with this take, except the interpretation about women. Those who take offense to this aspect of the book miss the point of his satire of Victorian society.

Just as we wouldn’t commend the flatlander insistence that virtue is exclusively the result of good breeding instead of being within the domain of the individual to control (and a number of other jabs Abbott makes at the society of his time), so his characterization of women as being deplorable and despicable creatures in the society of flatland is also very clearly tongue in cheek and not meant to be agreed with by the reader.

If you still aren’t convinced, just consider this quote from the sphere: “Yet many of the best and wisest in Spaceland think more of the affections than of the understanding, more of your despised Straight Lines than of your belauded Circles.” So if the being with greater understanding inverts the social order to place straight lines (women) above circles (the chiefest of of men), in addition to inverting many of the core beliefs of the simple flatlanders, then isn’t it clear that we are to as well? (Given that we also belong to the enlightened realm of “Spaceland”) But seriously, we shouldn’t be so brittle about gender. Those who misread the satire as biting the opposite direction from its intention unflatteringly fall victim to their emotions and miss the point of what is actually meant to be conveyed (ahh, irony). At the time this was written (1884), this piece would certainly have been understood as a pointed satire of Victorian society’s oppressive gender norms and not as a ridicule of women themselves. In this case, I have to suggest using logic over emotion (as the circle would not suggest) in order to fully understand this fabulous book ;)

I have an animation that illustrates Abbott’s likely view of women as more superior than men — —

Youtube address for phone friendly flatland video— “Her Story” — ->> https://youtu.be/q_kcP9OOK2E

(it's a powerpoint slide)

the youtube video is also missing the point lol.

Edit: oh my gods the youtube video is genuinely proposing that Women of Flatland are secretly smart not because the men are just wrong and lying, but because the Women are secretly telepathic, and real women (by which this person I have absolutely no doubt means only AFAB people) in the real world are telepathic and soon will have a planet wide hive mind of Women because um. Women are in constant spiritual communion with one another ?!?!?!? >.>

"Are the women of Flatland really as stupid as the misogynstic narrator says??? No!! Of course not!!! They're secretly telepathic!!!!"
