funnybunny nation has been winning ALL month,, dumping some old art to celebrate 🥳

Oh cool I’m not a vegan anymore-

No but Jax and Pomni becoming close friends makes so much sense BECAUSE Jax would rather eat glass than have Pomni be his therapist friend. Like when he's talking to her, he's talking to her like a peer vs letting her fix his problems. Because he would rather die than have anyone do that.

And Pomni...kinda needs someone who doesn't bullshit her but keeps her from getting too anxious. And Jax needs someone who will take all his bullshit and accept that about him instead of trying to fix him or make him better. Funnybunny shippers how are we feeling?

i mean. jax was originally going to be a girl. he swapped genders with pomni, who was originally a guy. are they both trans?

"let's see what you're made of" pissing jax off. is jax trans. is that canon.

I like that pomni voted against putting jax in the maid dress bc of the various bonding moments she had with jax earlier in the episode

he can actually be a decent person 0.000000001% percent of the time he just. Doesn’t do that

If your Dad had a blog, what would he blog about?

[obligatory-name-change]

wait sorry is epic specifically antiblack? was unsure what that meant (did vote julian anyway cause he deserves the win !)

I've explained this before! It's the entire purpose of this blog, right? To create your Black characters with intent. And that includes knowing what happens when you thoughtlessly characterize. You can cast race blind all you want, but no one is blind to the race of the character once they are chosen (thus, why there's a backlash every time a character people like is Black).

So if I take a character that is deemed sexually aggressive, sexually threatening, sexually desirable and yet not meant to be desirable at all onto the (anti-)heroic white leading man that is trying to get back to his narratively Good white wife, trying to seduce him away from his wife because she wants him... And I cast her as a dark skinned Black woman. And this sort of narrative has historically been used to oversexualize and sexually abuse Black women, to deem them as (hint!) Jezebels in comparison to Good Pure White Women... What have I written?

If I take a character that is a violent, sexually aggressive, predator whose goal is to defile the narratively heroic white woman who is trying to save her home and herself for her (anti-)heroic white husband returning home from battle... And this sort of narrative has historically been used to oversexualize and target Black men as (hint!) rapacious beasts worth subduing (and even killing) to protect the sanctity and safety of White Order... What have I written?

These are two of the oldest and most violent stereotypes that have been projected onto my people, that persist in how we are treated to this day. And my disgust and upset with that lack of consideration, especially in something everyone is supposed to enjoy, is part of why I do not want to consume that piece of media.

And even if they were written with nuance, I can say with full confidence that White Fandom will still happily view these characters through that biased lens because we live in a world that is still informed by those stereotypes (they'll do it with Black characters that AREN'T these things).

I'll pass. There's no level of entertainment I'll get out of it that is able to overcome my distaste at that part. I've been able to let certain things roll off to have a good time, but this isn't one that beckons enough for me to do that. I hope the people who enjoy it continue to enjoy it, though I'd at least appreciate it if they were aware, but. Oh well.

Asking because I overheard a physical therapist say that she uses this question to see if she wants a second date with a guy, and if he says more than like 4 eggs at once it's a red flag.

it's hard to find a mechanic knowledgeable on the ins and outs of synth anatomy, and it's harder to find one that'll put up with his wisecracks....

"feminine bodied" is an insane way to phrase having a pussy. y'all really will just say anything
