Based on personality, willingness to kill and general hatred of society, these three would be the most toxic and terrifying group of friends to ever interact I said what I said

<3

reading the secret history on the subway while listening to classical music, doc martins, red lipstick stains, drinking wine out of teacups, listening to Lana del rey 24/7, having a mental breakdown while contemplating the meaning of life, romanticizing everything, watching Gilmore girls while you study, going to the met, lacy slip dresses, pearls, antique porcelain dolls, dyeing your hair in the middle of the night, lipgloss, oversized sweaters, low waisted jeans, the smell of old books

It’s 1:46 and I’m in some random hotel in Canada and I’m lying on the hotel room floor in my friends hoodie and listening to heavy metal on one AirPod and one wired headphone, and honestly this is like cathartic for me. Like the windows are open and I spent the earlier hours of the night in my friend’s room lying on his bed and talking to him for hours, and I’m the 4th reincarnation of god and I’m absolutely nothing at all and it’s perfect and it’s nothing and it’s everything.

Something I don’t think enough people recognize when it comes to making shows more diverse, there is so much going on behind the scene that you literally can’t “just add them.” 

Alex Hirsch had to wait until the end of Gravity Falls to show that Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Durland were in love so that way the show didn’t get prematurely cancelled. And even still, that was censored in other countries. 

________

The Owl House has a bisexual afro Latina protagonist that falls in love with a white lesbian. They kiss several times on screen and say “my awesome girlfriend.” It also has Disney’s first nonbinary character (Raine Whispers), their bisexual love interest (Eda Clawthorne), and an aro/ace woman (Lilith Clawthorne). However, because like five people said that TOH wasn’t the “Disney brand” the show is prematurely cancelled. So even with everything that TOH did, it only won battle but lost the war. 

________

The art crew for Encanto had to fight to make Luisa buff. And when they were finally able to make her buff, Disney didn’t make as much Luisa merchandise because they thought little girls would want Mirabel or Isabela’s since they’re more “feminine.” (I think the same thing happened with Namaari when RATLD came out but I’m not sure. So don’t quote me on that.)

*Also, Luisa out sold Mirabel and Isabela. So that’s a win. 

________

Bubblegum and Marceline couldn’t kiss until the series finale of Adventure Time because it would’ve been cancelled. So throughout the entire series, the crew always just had to imply undertones about their past. Since HBO produced Obsidian, they were able to kiss on screen.

________

Korra and Asami’s relationship had to tempt down so that way Nick could continue airing the show and they weren’t allowed to kiss until the comics. 

________

Turning Red got so much unwarranted criticism because not only did Mei’s mom say “pads” but she showed them on screen. (I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, if that made you uncomfortable, that’s a sign that we need to do this more and not less.)

________

Some countries marked She Ra as 18+ because Catra and Adora kissed on screen. (Once again, I’m not sure if this completely true but Nate Stevenson had to fight to actually show them kissing on screen instead of a fade to white.)

________

Steven Universe is the gayest show I’ve ever seen in my life which was both good and bad. It was good for obvious reasons. Example being that it was the first show that introduced to me nonbinary people in a way that wasn’t “haha, look, she uses they/them pronouns. She’s so funny and quirky.” 

And it’s bad because it put a target on it’s back. SU has been censored so much that it’s honestly a miracle that we got an ending. And in most of the countries that censored SU, they usually portray Ruby as a man. So I can’t imagine how bad the censors were when the wedding happened and Ruby wore a dress and Sapphire wore a suit. 

________

Also, you have to remember the outdated idea that gay/trans topics are “too mature” for kids to handle (there’s an episode of Adam Ruins Everything that talks about this). So it’s easier for shows with an older audience (like Arcane) to have queer/trans rep.

Not to mention, if you ever go on Insider’s website to look at the queer/trans characters in cartoons [here], most of the characters are revealed to be queer only online and not in the actual show.

________

All of this BS because God forbid that kids find out that other people exist. 

Representation is important but please, just be aware of the actually struggles that go on that you don’t see and be thankful that this is where we are now because even though it might seem like it at times remember that this is actual progress. We need to keep pushing studios to do more. I’m sure that there’s millions of untold stories that would be made if not for this prejudice.

IMO if someone like something they should really start saying “this really marrows my bones”. Ya feel?

Like I was at photography class right, and I take this cute-ass photo and I’m like “WOW THIS REALLY MARROWS MY BONES” and like my photography teacher told me to shut up but like…it was so worth it.

Try it now!

25 days of Dark Academia:

(Day two)

Falling asleep in class while using a anthropology book as a pillow, listening to classic music while teaching yourself Sanskrit, Chopin, lending your friends annotated copies of books, listening to art podcasts while cooking, beat up boots worn with everything, untied shoelaces, lighting a oil lamp in the middle of the night.

[augnifixi]

25 days of Dark Academia:

(Day one)

Ink stained fingertips, complex math equations, vintage tweed jackets, apricot biscuits eaten while reading about cults, learning French with your best friend, soft morning light streaming through dusty windows, nostalgia, making instant ramen while listening to Vivaldi.
