this speaking as a cis person. Nothing brings me more joy seeing people find gender euphoria in becoming a mediocre representation of humanity. And I mean that so genuinely. Local boy finds joy and fulfillment wearing a cargo shorts and t-shirt combo. Local girl has transitioned to look like someone's disheveled aunt, has never been happier. Local person experiences gender euphoria rocking the world's worst bowl-cut. Without a scap of irony, this shit makes me see the wonder and whimsy in just, being a human. An average, person going through their day-to-day, is a wondrous thing? That's amazing. And heteronormativity has stripped these experiences of their joy. Like you're right, wearing a basic girlypop skirt should make my heart sing. Why not? Why are these expressions lesser because they're normal? All this to say. Shoutout to all the basic bitches out there. Yes that polo shirt does make you look like a divorced golfer dad. Yes, that too is kind of a slay, now that I think of it.
Wonder Woman by Mike del Mundo
sometimes i think a little too hard about how percy jackson started as bedtime stories that rick riordan would tell his son when he was being bullied for his adhd and dyslexia because he wanted to let his kid know that he could also be a hero. and how after his first books were so successful he started to realize that there are lots of kids out there who don't see themselves in any heroes because of various other aspects of themselves, and he doesn't want any kid to feel like how his did, so he started writing heroes that were poc and gay and religious minorities and homeless and genderqueer and physically disabled and from an array of different cultures and he just made it his absolute mission to make sure every single kid could see themselves in his universe. about how the primary purpose of these books is to make kids feel a little bit less alone, and how the percy jackson books are so well loved because they are, themselves, an act of love. percy jackson came into existence as an act of love towards his struggling son and this story grew and expanded into what it is today because so many kids needed that same kind of love, and even those of us that aren't kids anymore still find a home in a story that was made for that exact purpose. and then i cry.
this is what really happened in episode 25
Just when you thought it couldn't possibly get any worse
Dick every time he goes shopping: Would prince Eric from the Little Mermaid wear this? No? Then get it the fuck out of my face.
Nightwing Dick, who was sent back in time: *doesn’t have a cape*
Robin Dick: Why doesn’t he have to wear a cape?
Batman: You know that the cape is to help you learn stealth
Nightwing: Hey kid, imma let you in on a secret
Nightwing: The bright yellow cape is just so he doesn’t lose you in crowds
Robin, softly: I knew it
I'm so sorry, I'm the last person to say something about fandom culture is cringe but having a whole account pretending to be a character is where I draw the line, specially when it's so OOC you know they base it on fanon 😭😭
