One word...CHAOS. Daily chaos on the Agreste household.

In here, Adrien is a year younger than in the Werepapas flashback. This time I tried a more colourful approach.

Nothing like drawing some smiles to heal the heart... to then BREAK IT WITH MORE ANGST AND DRAMA (saved for the next comic)

chinese!marinette headcanons because only one person encouraged me to do this and that was enough for me to do it

you are all COWARDS for making “adrien teaches marinette chinese” headcanons, she speaks wenzhouhua at home and just vaguely understands mando because sabine preferred speaking her local dialect with her kids and figured she could learn mando some other time

she did not learn mando but can understand some of it. also she feels insecure about her wenzhouhua at times but. i promise u it’s better than adrien’s mando, which i could not understand for my life and needed subs for

going shopping at the chinese grocery store with her mom and picking out the veggies, knowing what they are but forgetting the names cuz she wasn’t taught to read chinese

SHOES OFF IN THE HOUSE, always wearing fuzzy slippers indoors. her dad forgets this rule sometimes and sabine always starts mopping and grumbling under her breath immediately afterward

i guess it’s a french bakery or whatever but don’t u dare thing sabine didn’t take marinette to chinese bakeries growing up, eating egg custards and hot dog buns and pineapple cakes

her mom sent her to love boat

sabine hosts family reunions every year. the house is extremely cramped and crowded, there’s at least 70 people in inside because only half the family could make it.

“we have two 40-year-old cousins in hong kong from your jiu jiu’s first marriage, but we don’t really talk to them. i think the younger one is a singer”

that jiu jiu is currently sitting on the couch and has two six-year-olds with his second wife

there’s a mountain of shoes at the front door and finding your own pair is like playing “where’s waldo”

especially when you have a lot of cousins in your teens and twenties who all wear the exact same adidas sneakers

long before adrien marinette’s biggest crush was jay chou and she dreamed of being a S.H.E. member

sabine would not wear a qipao 24/7 HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THIS!!!

she dresses in ankle-length mom jeans and a blouse with the sleeves rolled halfway up and carried a gucci handbag, change my mind

she becomes friends with kagami and brings her to her house and says “oh by the way can you tell my mom you’re chinese but don’t understand or speak it? thanks”

adrien and marinette let the families meet. gabriel reaches for the bill, but it’s nowhere to be found. sabine is cackling in the corner, having finally found someone who doesn’t know the bathroom trick.

she approves of the match once she finds out adrien’s grades and family income because marrying smart and rich will get you places

marinette’s friends think her house is pretty chinese when they walk in with the ink paintings and scrolls. her older cousin’s house on the other hand, has a those plus a shrine plus a buddha statue plus jade turtles and frogs with coins on their heads and in their mouths RESPECTIVELY plus a tape continuously playing buddhist chants.

her mom always tried to give her teachers gifts at the end of the semester and it was embarrassing because NOBODY ELSE DID IT

her friends watched anime but like… she grew up on the old ones like shin chan and doraemon, but the chinese dubs

speaking of which she has tapes of the three monks and tadpoles looking for their mother and nezha conquers the dragon king in her room at the moment

Osomatsu-san: New Super Short Anime Episode 3 "Don't Take a Picture"

We Need To Talk About Texas Senate Bill 20.

As if this year couldn't get any worse the Texas Senate has just passed a bill that will criminalize the possession of any material depicting a minor in “obscene” ways.

THIS WOULD POTENTIALLY MAKE OWNING/WATCHING/PLAYING ANIME OR VIDEO GAMES A FELONY

Though Senate Bill 20 is structured in a way that mainly points it at the usage of AI software to create this type of material, “cartoon or animation” are also specified. Some of the most popular anime, manga, and games of all time contain these sorts of depictions. Depending on how Texan lawmakers feel about certain series, there’s a good chance many of the most popular anime and manga series ever could be affected. Seeing as many stories center around people who are high-school age, any content that depicts characters who are underage in a way Texas law deems “obscene” would be committing a felony offense. Senate Bill 20 is intended to be rolled out as an amendment to Chapter 43 of Texas’ penal code, with the section reading as follows: “A person commits an offense if the person knowingly possesses, accesses with intent to view, or promotes obscene visual material containing a depiction that appears to be of a child younger than 18 years of age engaging in activities described by Section 43.21(a)(1)(B), regardless of whether the depiction is an image of an actual child, a cartoon or animation, or an image created using an artificial intelligence application or other computer software.” That said, the activities described by Section 43.21(a)(1)(B) are, by design, up to interpretation. Though they describe the standard acts that would be considered deplorable by most, the definition of “obscene” material ends with this line: “[Material or a performance that] taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political, and scientific value”.

GUYS THIS IS BAD. And not just because they are coming after something that most of us love.

This is the beginning of a new wave of fascist "Book Banning" per se.

Right wing leaders are hiding behind the guise of "children safety" to ban ANY PIECE OF MEDIA that they don't like or agree with. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH PUBLIC/CHILDREN SAFETY.

Don't get me wrong, we DO NEED PROTECTION AND LAWS AIMED AT AI GENERATED CH*LD P*RN.

But Senate Bill 20 is written SO FUCKING VAGUELY that there are NO ACTUAL GUIDELINES that would actually lay out CLEAR AND CONCISE WORDING on what IS or ISN'T legal. It would be left up to the fuckhead right wing lawmakers here in Texas to determine what is or isn't safe which means that they would abuse THE FUCK out of it to fit their agenda.

Texans, if you are reading this CALL, EMAIL, HELL, SHOW UP AT YOUR LOCAL REPRESENTATIVES OFFICE. DO NOT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THIS EASILY.

Let them know that this is NOT ACCEPTABLE.

If you don't live in Texas, spread the word of this. Show your friends what is about to happen because IF YOU THINK THIS WILL ONLY BE ISOLATED TO TEXAS YOU ARE DEAD FUCKING WRONG.

Like I said before: This is only the beginning of a wave of fascist media banning that is only being emboldened by the fascists that currently occupy the oval office.

IF YOU LIVE IN A RED STATE EXPECT LEGISLATION LIKE THIS TO START APPEARING SOON.
