"I don't care about shipcourse, I touch grass hurr durr"

But you do realize that antis are part of a far right push towards wider censorship policies in actual real life. Of actual real art. Right? Right??????

You touch grass but do you ever want to touch a piece of non-corporate-approved not cookie cutter white christian media again? You ever read a book that has been banned and think "well jeez it would suck if I lived in a time when I would get arrested for this."

THE TIME IS HERE. THE PUSH IS NOW. ARTISTS OF ALL SORTS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH FANFICTION OR SHIPPING HAVE BEEN SPEAKING OUT AND WARNING YOU ABOUT THIS FOR AGES. IT IS NOT A "CHRONICALLY ONLINE" STANCE TO THINK CENSORSHIP IS BAD AND ACTIVELY DANGEROUS TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO CANNOT BUY THEIR WAY OUT OF JAIL. THE NAZIS HAD A WHOLE THING ABOUT "GOOD MORALLY PURE ART" AND "BAD MORALLY DEGENERATE ART" TOO. THEY BURNED RECORDS OF QUEER CLINICS. THEY CENSORED ANY NEWS THAT WASN'T WITH THEIR AGENDA. DOES THAT REMIND YOU OF ANYTHING DOES IT.

Normal people writing fight scenes:

Person sitting at a spacious desk, mug of something delicious nearby, a candle possibly lit, and a furrowed brow as they puzzle out what limb goes where in relation to a weapon.

Icy writing fight scenes:

All of the above but in the moment also grasping a roll of saran wrap in one hand and a roll of tinfoil in another as pretend dual swords, stumbling around her kitchen and trying to pretend she's fighting an enemy and if such a kill move is possible all while debating the merits of actually trying to perform a backflip off a window ledge to really get the sensation of the action and debating that no, unlike her character she will in fact break her neck.

It took me a long time to realize this because, but the conversation between Lady Catherine and Elizabeth is rude, but for the most part, Lady C is not wrong.

“Why did not you all learn? You ought all to have learned. The Miss Webbs all play, and their father has not so good an income as yours. Do you draw?”

“No governess! How was that possible? Five daughters brought up at home without a governess! I never heard of such a thing. Your mother must have been quite a slave to your education.”

“All! What, all five out at once? Very odd! And you only the second. The younger ones out before the elder are married! Your younger sisters must be very young?”

Yes! They all should have learned and they probably should have had a governess. Especially Lydia and Kitty. The other heroines without a governess (Catherine Morland, possibly the Dashwoods) do have very attentive parents who manage their education. The Bennets don’t have dowries, they could at the very least be educated. It’s far less expensive.

And yes! It’s insane to have five daughters out at once. Even if we just look at it from a financial standpoint, that means five girls need ballgowns and adornment all at once. Families usually put only one or two girls out because of the prohibitive expense. And then we have of course the fact that Lydia is probably too young to be out anyway.

Elizabeth defends her family’s choices, kind of, or at least gives an explanation, but not allowing her family to be dragged through the mud is different than saying her upbringing was correct. And even if she kind of agrees with her family’s justification now, she certainly realizes how devastating these choices were later.

And yet, because Jane Austen is so clever, Lady Catherine is still a rude idiot. A good deal of what she says even during this conversation is ridiculous and condescending. But that is the genius of Austen, she sets up this argument so you get on Elizabeth’s side, even though Elizabeth is wrong. Which is the same as with Caroline Bingley’s warning about Wickham, we discount it because we dislike her and she sneers, but in her speech is the truth.

It’s a nice parallel with Darcy’s first proposal. He’s not wrong, but he is still a rude, condescending jerk about it.

[stephaniebrownthespoiler]

the crux of why TimSteph is a doomed to fail romance is that Tim sees Robin as the Most Important Thing That's Happened To Him and a huge responsibility and title that he has to live up to while Steph saw Spoiler as a much needed escapism and they both saw their relationship as an extension of how they feel about their hero identities to some extent

Watching Deadpool 2 and I'm weirdly attracted to the juggernaut. He's saying his little quips and ripping Deadpool in half and I'm giggling like a school girl with a crush.

Sometimes I think about how the Ghost crew consists of two aliens, three poc humans, and a droid whose model isn't even being manufactured anymore and I just,,

The same can't be said for the VAs necessarily but the fact that all these characters look the way that they do and have that shared experience of their people, their culture, and/or their planets being exploited or straight up destroyed by the Empire is just so so satisfying to someone like me.

I just love how diverse the main cast of the Ghost crew is, like that's something you can do in animation. It's a lot easier to create characters who aren't human when you're animating versus if you're doing live action. Like when's the last time we had a colorful alien main character in a star wars project?? The other aliens we've gotten have all been bland browns and dark colors. As excited as I am for Andor, nearly the ENTIRE cast is made up of human characters! This is a galaxy far far away! Where are the aliens???

But I digress, every now and then I see a picture of the Ghost crew and it just fills me with warmth. Just an odd family group made up of so many different backgrounds, colors, and characteristics. Yet they all have similar life experiences, they've seen some of the same fucked up shit happen time and time again, and they all have this goal of going against the oppression they and the galaxy face,, and that's just beautiful.

Today I discovered a German animated cartoon called "Tabaluga" and there's a fully-fledged movie that has a villain song sung by an evil snowman named Arktos.

This is the English dub, with Arktos voiced by Benedict Campbell, who also did King K. Rool. (@bramble-scramble)

Despite it being only like a minute and a half long, this song FUCKS.

I am not joking. Or exaggerating.

The lyrics go way harder than it should be, Benedict Campbell sounds amazing, and the music is really catchy as hell! It's just such a shame that it isn't longer.

The reason why I'm bringing this to everyone's attention is because of the sheer disappointment I have for Disney's Wish. Imagine releasing a brand new film for your company's 100th anniversary that brings back the classic fairytale magic that every fan loves, only to have it suck so hard that a fucking SNOWMAN from a German cartoon that's practically almost unknown in America is a better Disney Villain than the ACTUAL DISNEY VILLAIN.

What in the actual fuck is this timeline?!
