Grace makes a shocking discovery

[wanderingcoasties]

“The LEGO Movie was my favorite movie of 2014, but it strikes me that the main character was male, because I feel like in our current culture, he HAD to be. The whole point of Emmett is that he’s the most boring average person in the world. It’s impossible to imagine a female character playing that role, because according to our pop culture, if she’s female she’s already SOMEthing, because she’s not male. The baseline is male. The average person is male. You can see this all over but it’s weirdly prevalent in children’s entertainment. Why are almost all of the muppets dudes, except for Miss Piggy, who’s a parody of femininity? Why do all of the Despicable Me minions, genderless blobs, have boy names? I love the story (which I read on Wikipedia) that when the director of The Brave Little Toaster cast a woman to play the toaster, one of the guys on the crew was so mad he stormed out of the room. Because he thought the toaster was a man. A TOASTER. The character is a toaster. I try to think about that when writing new characters— is there anything inherently gendered about what this character is doing? Or is it a toaster?”

— Bojack Horseman creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg commenting on how weird gendered defaults in entertainment are, and why we should think twice about them. Excerpted from this longer original post. (via 360degreesasthecrowflies)

Would it be problematic to connect how Yanessa says she loves Wicander after he seemingly fails on his own and returns to her, and how Hannan describes how Sylandri hated the idea of her children having lives outside of her periphery? Love on the condition that you always remain dependent on them?? Is this anything???

I love how Tyranny genuinely seems to care for Wick and see how hard he's trying in the face of his whole world and faith being turned upside down, and it makes me sad how even Hal, the loving, patient father-like figure for so many others, has so little respect for or faith in him and even calls him names even after all he tried to do. Like, Wick is naive and occasionally shows the bias of his upbringing, and for some, the mistrust is perfectly in character, and I know above table, these are just friends teasing each other irl, but in game, sometimes it starts to feel like this when it's everyone 😭:

He's trying his best!!

when Murray hands Kattigan the Yargraz during the meeting after he mentioned that he hasn't had a drop all day, Robbie jokingly whispers "enabler" to Marisha, and then he looks up and it looks to me as if he's considering whether Kat would drink now or not, and then he mimes taking several swigs of Yargraz.

I think there was an important character moment for Kat going on in the background there

Azune: "You're very wise, Occtis."

Occtis, instantly: "Nope!"

(You could try "You are wiser than Julien," which he might accept, but it also isn't much of a compliment at that point.)

Loved the editors prominently displaying Occtis’ WIS of 10 during that scene, great work guys. 🤣
