[Image ID: An edited xkcd comic. Person 1 says, "FNAF game lore is second nature to us game theorists so it's easy to forget that the average person probably only know the difference between the bite of 83 and the bite of 87." Person 2 adds, "And time travelling ball pit of course." Person 1 replies, "Of course." The caption at the bottom of the image reads, "Even when they're trying to compensate for it, experts in anything wildly overestimate the average person's familiarity with their field." /End ID.]

i dont know why this is such a foreign concept to people but you CAN actually have a fat character without them being slovenly, overly insecure, or the butt of every joke (self-deprecating or otherwise).

watched "the lightning thief" movie for the first time in forever tonight and i think i've finally figured out the main reason the movie rubs me the wrong way.
percabeth.
they completely misunderstood percy and annabeth's relationship.
the movie shows them as an enemies to lovers, with a romantic tension and shoving them towards a romantic plot within literally five seconds of them meeting.
part of it's probably because they picked older actors, but it's just completely wrong.
the wonderful thing about percy and annabeth is their friendship. the friendship that's built from the very start of their meeting, where they dislike each other for all of three seconds before becoming best friends.
a friendship that we don't see any real romance blossoming from until percy's thoughts about annabeth in "sea of monsters" at cc's island, and a friendship we really don't see any real progress in until their kiss in "battle of the labyrinth" at the volcano. (you could definitely argue everything about percy's thoughts in "titan's curse", which is what i view as percy's real turning point towards seeing annabeth in a romantic light)
percabeth doesn't work if they're just automatically pushed into a romantic plot together. it's their friendship that makes us root for them, the way that we know how much they care about each other, but also know that they wouldn't feel so strongly about each other if they didn't start off as such strong friends
anyone who paints percabeth as enemies to lovers and not childhood best friends to lovers i'm sorry but it's just not them
