hey! you!

do you like cartoons or anime? specifically the action genre? are you looking for something to watch while you wait for voltron season 7 to roll around? if so, Ive got the show for you!

hailing from the dark ages of 2010, this show includes a main cast of 5(4 technically, since snake eyes wasnt in the military in this version, I think, but who’s counting) ex-military war criminals who run around in their stolen van trying to expose an evil corporation’s secrets, but mostly getting into trouble.

sold yet? I hope so. G.I. Joe Renegades is an overall, fairly good, well animated show that you may have watched on the hub back when you were a kid, if youre around my age.

while it has it’s downfalls, it’s humor is pretty great and the pacing is nice. theres filler, but it really doesnt feel like filler. additionally, the action is well done and so far? the characters are all pretty enjoyable.

said characters include,

snake eyes, a mute ninja who honestly just swoops in whenever the other guys need help. quality backstory, some of the best action scenes in the show. his strange mixture of hand motions, nodding, and body language as communication is endearing. also he has a motorcycle. and is one of my favorite animated characters of all time. 11/10.

scarlett o’hara. though unfortunately the only lady in the group, she’s a very interesting character. she’s the tech guru, and spends most of her time trying to get duke to stay out of other people’s business. the entire operation would probably fall apart without her. developing relationship with snake eyes, also does all of his interpretation.

roadblock. think hunk from voltron. underappreciated brains + brawn combo. he also cooks for the group, is the resident mechanic, and supplies tunes. really just super ride or die, he’ll help with anything. super wholesome Good Man who deserves the world. really great dynamic with tunnel rat. probably my second favorite character.

tunnel rat. demolitions expert, medicine expert, and resident common sense filter. if I had to explain his character in one sentence, it would be “here, eat this plant, it’ll cure all your woes.” probably smokes weed. tries, along with scarlett, to get everyone to stay out of trouble. pretends to be upset with roadblock but definitely loves him anyway.

duke. generic action protag, or a less interesting jack morrison. while he’s the least intriguing of the group in my opinion, he’s doing his best and really wants to help people. the entire reason the team gets into trouble all the time. he’s pretty vanilla and prefers doing things by the book, yknow, like captain america. before he became a war criminal. except duke is still like that. got a cool friend on the inside who helps them get away with their shenanigans.

if you havent drunk the koolaid yet, g.i. joe is a series of comics, movies, and cartoons that dates back to the 80s with a lot of offshoots and variables. youre probably mostly familiar with g.i. joe action figures.

all in all, renegades is a great take on the g.i. joe franchise, and a pretty high quality cartoon. it isnt long, and it’ll probably never get any new episodes ever, but it’s worth a watch. I reccomend it highly. if only just for snake eyes.

(YEET)

have you ever spent 500 dollars of your own money fixing up the humvee with your rto, who's exceptional skills you make sure are appreciated by your mutual friends and constantly needed him by your side, smiled at all of his dumb jokes and sung love songs with him but also had to check that he hasn't overdone it on the ripped fuel and shouted at him when he's reckless and because you're with him so often you notice when he's being unusually quiet and had to make sure he's okay, including running to his side when he walks off in tears after a fight or are you straight

“It’s a handbag.”

ELLIOT 😩

Look at him! He's gorgeous right? Can we talk about him?

Just me crying in the bathroom so I don't wake my partners with this, fuck.

So to sum up: CT and DC have passed laws making it illegal to extradite someone to another state if they are being charged in that other state for crimes pertaining to abortion or trans health care, and makes it legal to sue and get your money back if you are targeted by a TX-style "bounty" law. DC also includes "crimes" of consensual adult sex, gay and interracial marriage and cohabitation and providing or using contraception.

This is, as the thread explains, basically legal interstate warfare. CT and DC's laws bar compliance with such laws.

This is, on one hand, kind of terrifying, because this is where we are now. It's going to get worse long before it gets better.

On the other hand... holy shit, someone fucking did something.

Someone fucking did something real.
