I left years ago, came back for some ninjago and then disappeared again. Maybe I just should come back

Why do you hate Gwen from Total Drama so much?

Do I hate her? I just don't like how they made her and Duncan behave from the third season onward, and the whole season 2 mix up. S1 is my favorite Gwen, but to hate HATE her- thats a big stretch, I would say I'm just not crazy for her? Probably over the years my opinion toned down, maybe I just am not fond of people who treat her like a perfect angel who did nothing wrong (the triangle love was a mess and it was imho terrible for all the characters involved)

They be like “My turn or your turn?” And we will get a “Both is good” soon enough

Cole and Zane every season at this point:

Behold

I have made a colour wheel for the fear entities!

Here it is:

Let me elaborate:

1. Mixing the fears

Each fear can be "made" by the two next to it - its neighbours. This doesn't mean the fears aren't in itself their own thing, but, as is canon: the fears also bleed into each other.

Examples

The Vast + The Spiral = The Lonely

(Emptiness, being away from all living things + insanity, loosing yourself = The Lonely)

The Spiral + The Flesh = The Stranger

(Insanity/Inhumanness applies to very human person/flesh-ness = The Stranger)

2. Three-Colour-Combinations (Triads)

Each fear makes a triad with their two neighbors. These three fears always share some common vibe or something inexplicably similar

Examples

The End, The Web, The Eye - The Omni Triad

(these three entities are either everywhere, seeing everything, touch everything or pull the strings everywhere - they are omnipresent and omniscient)

The Eye, the Corruption, the Buried - The Larvae Triad

(these three entities have to do with emerging. Not only does Jon emerge from his humanity through the eye, the idea of evolving like a larvae is very corruption while the buried suggests never actually emerging, staying wrapped in what you have been)

3. Opposite colours

as you can see, this doesn't perfectly add up due to there being 14, but some of them still fit. The buried and the vast are almost opposite to each other, being pretty much perfect opposites, the stranger (the unknown) is opposite to the eye (the known) and the slaughter, which is the embodiment of neverending violence and physical harm is opposite to the end, the most abstract and body-less of the fears.

Ask me anything! I'd be happy to explain each combination more if any of you want.

(disclaimer a lot of this was just my synesthesia going nuts and i dont actually used real brain cells to make this. If something doesn't add up - i know.)

2 moms canon 

This was DJ’s picture of his momma from his audition vid. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS? Either there’s different concept art for her initially, or… DJ has 2 mommas. DJ HAS 2 MOMMAS. I now consider this canon.

The names of those killed by racism and police brutality are written along Chicago Avenue in Minneapolis. George Floyd was killed on this street in front of Cup Foods after being accused of using a counterfeit $20 bill. The site of his death has been converted into a large shrine.
