#but as far as I'm aware it's just wrong

99% of the time I move between confused and annoyed about Matt's cane being shaped the way it is because that's simply the wrong type of cane. 1% of the time is the candy cane decorated cane with the I'm not Daredevil outfit

When twst Eng was announced I was very nervous.

Mainly it was being released in the U.S and western fans (especially the US ones) aren't very good at actually thinking about what they consume, at least in my experience (not all of them ofc)

They mostly just pick out base characteristics and make that the character's entire personality and then decide if they love or hate them based on those black and white attributes without any nuance or critical thought.

When I heard about the mistakes (Cater's sisters, Kalim's name) and suspicious info removals (removing Cater saying he would date Vil, replacing beautiful with handsome when describing Vil) going on in twst English I was even more concerned.

When I heard about how they watered down Azul's story so they didn't "offend" anyone I was unsurprised but very sad.

Now seeing how horribly almost every character is characterised by the fandom I'm not surprised but I am still very sad and a little bit upset.

The characters of Twisted Wonderland are so beautifully complex and authentic that it still blows my mind to think about.

I hate the fact that they've been whittled down to "rules" "beauty" "sleepy" "money" etc

There's so much more to them than that

Talking a little bit about 'boycotting Eurovision' under Keep Reading, feel free to scroll down if is not what you want to see.

The most used argument on the matter of banning Israel from Eurovision is the fact that Russia got banned from Eurovision, which is the worst argument anyone could bring.

Kindly reminder that Russia didn't get banned because of the war with Ukraine. Russia got banned because many countries has threatened to withdraw from the competition. Sadly, that's a big difference.

Yes, the countries has threatened to withdraw because they support Ukraine and see Russia as the party in the wrong. That was their reason. EBU's reason for banning Russian was because those countries threatened to withdraw, not because the war was bad and Russia must be stopped.

This situation isn't the same. Why? Because many countries support Israel in their genocide. Because this time around Palestine is the party in the wrong. Because we're taught to believe that Israel isn't in the wrong here.**

Boycotting Eurovision won't work. There are people out there who don't know the truth and want to watch Eurovision. There are people out there who don't care and will watch Eurovision regardless of the situation. There are people out there who, despite having the facts, still don't see Israel as the bad guy in this situation and will watch Eurovision. Sadly, boycotting won't work unless everyone does it.

The only way Israel will get banned, in my opinion, is by going through the same thing as Russia. If other countries threatened to withdraw- and not any countries, but the ones investing the most in Eurovision, then yes. That will get Israel banned.

Otherwise? The only thing we do is hurt artists that don't deserve it. Artists who use Eurovision as a way to get more exposure and experience. Artists who deserve to be heard.

Don't vote for Israel's entry. Don't stream their song either. Heck, turn off the TV when is their turn to perform.

**This whole situation (the war, not Eurovision) isn't only black and white. Civilians die daily because of this, all of them from both sides. Innocent people who has no fault. Let's not forget that

When Rhys does a live show and he reaches the point where he starts bringing back some elements from before, that's simultaneously the worst feeling and the best - the best because heck yeah this is gonna be epic, and the worst because shit fuck no this is the finale i don't want it to end yet

I just had the biggest epiphany today after a particular chip run and like, I need to be annoying to you guys about it so bad.

I have been enlightened to He/Him Neuroqueer* Lesbian Chip. Just... let the thought simmer there for a minute. (* = I added the neuroqueer part because im projecting again.)

[recklessmoss]

Absolutely insane to me how this account has like 20+ videos of this caracal showing clear signs of aggression and literally both the op and the comments are just "omggg haha silly big floppa 😂". I'm going to rip my hair out.

[astro-b-o-y-d]

I might have mixed feelings on the trans Dipper headcanon (most of which boil down to ‘I get it completely, even if I don’t necessarily hc it myself’) but if anyone tries to tell me Alex Hirsch wanted that canon from the beginning, they are out of their minds. This extends to Alex Hirsch himself, unless there’s something about himself that he’d like to share with the fanbase.

And if that’s the case, statement redacted and good for him.

My thoughts on Grimm’s species are that it’s hard to ascribe a specific species to him not for a lack of similar bugs but rather because “distinct black and red coloring with a bit of white and big ‘spiky’ wings, that start out grayish and become more red with age, and whose cocoons vaguely resemble deformed hearts” describes like half of the subtribe Troidina

It's so fun being genderfluid and not bisexual with DID bc sometimes I'll slip up and say things like "he's pretty but I'm too straight for that" completely forgetting the fact that I am a lesbian. I mean straight as in attracted to women. Gender is confusing.

So close to being finished with my post office training! I just have to do my driver's test next Thursday and I'm officially an assistant rural carrier! Which is step one in becoming a full time employee and receiving those sweet, sweet government job bennies. But also, it's a lot of sorting and shit, and tism go brrrrrrrr with that.
