“Fairy tales — the proper kind, those original Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen tales I recall from my Eastern European childhood, unsanitized by censorship and unsweetened by American retellings — affirm what children intuitively know to be true but are gradually taught to forget, then to dread: that the terrible and the terrific spring from the same source, and that what grants life its beauty and magic is not the absence of terror and tumult but the grace and elegance with which we navigate the gauntlet.”

— Maria Popova, “The Importance of Being Scared: Polish Nobel Laureate Wisława Szymborska on Fairy Tales and the Necessity of Fear”

Honestly I am heartbroken that we didn't get another G1 style Valentines day set as the next couple could have been another g1 boy like Heath or Gil with Abbey or Lagoona.

But I am glad to finally have Deuce here as I had been wanting to compare and contrast him with Clawd.

I do find it interesting that Clawd got his G1 style face screening after Deuce got a whole new screening but I really like how they look together.

Are these kinda cute or have my standards just gotten really low

Like, beyond the fact that suggesting all homophobic men are secretly gay and in denial is still treating calling a dude gay as a way to "own" him, it's constructing a scenario in which gay people are the principal enactors of homophobic violence. Think carefully about who benefits from this framing.
