Some women are conditioned to be fragile and weak, and to believe that it's a sin to outperform a man. Her feminism would involve allowing women to be strong.

Some women are expected to be strong at times when they can't. Her feminism would involve reassuring her that it's okay to not be strong.

Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're too stupid to ever amount to anything. Their disability activism would involve reassuring them that they're capable.

Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're smart and gifted, and are expected to live up to impossible standards. Their disability activism would involve allowing them to fail, make mistakes, be stupid, etc.

Some children are constantly reminded "you're the child, I'm the adult" in order to deny their autonomy. Their youth rights activism would involve treating them like an adult at times when they feel ready for it.

Some children are treated like adults in order to justify increased expectations or to downplay abuse against them. Their youth rights activism would involve allowing them to be a child.

There is no one-size-fits-all solution to oppression. Each individual person's experience is different. Whatever trauma is caused by their oppression, the activism should focus on undoing it.

“Kid, I can’t believe you made it-“

Pok Gukgak and Riz Gukgak!! Two thirds of the goblin badasses!!

I tried to use the new designs to get an idea for how they would look in the last season!

Also this is the scene where they’re summoned into upper planes! Where Riz is like “Oh no I must be in danger of falling if my father is holding me so tightly!” Meanwhile they’re perfectly safe and Pok is just so so so happy to see his boy again…

something about karna learning how to “play chess” as a play, a game without consequences and something done for fun for the first time (also me obsessing over how this passing comment from colin just sets up for more heartbreak because do they have time?)

also some notes on… self-indulgent things

Tears. Spicy spicy tears.

Mexican traditional dress inspired Karna cause chillis belong to Mexico and we're all just borrowing them

Anyways I tried to make the boots look like dried chillis, are we seeing that, I'm not sure if I communicated that strong enough

THE BATTLE OF THE CENTURY

[stone-stars]

hit with the sudden realization that when gerard told elody he was fighting because of her, that she inspired him to fight… he inadvertently told her that he died because of her

[polarsirens]

a reunion

[littlebitofdnd]

Gerard's whole life feels like a never ending "Do you want to go to the castle where the dogs are or go back to your frog pond?"

Because it's so demeaning. He can be presented with the choice but he can only ever really go back to the frog pond. He could fight in the war but he was never taught to do anything but hide. He could fix his marriage but he was so young when he was cursed he doesn't know how to do anything but hide. Because his formative years -the years that define who he is and how he reacts- were spent fleeing from herons and dogs and boots. and he may have had his body back for a time, but he will always mentally be in the frog pond, with nothing to do but throw tantrums and hide and make up friends that will not speak to him.

And what lesson did he learn? He deserved it. Pinocchio lied, Ylfa killed, and Gerard understands that they had no choice, but to him, it was always his fault. Elody tells him he wasn't evil, and he doesn't hear her. Because good little boys don't get turned into frogs, and at nine?? The only lesson he could have learned was that he was evil.

Gerard isnt a coward. He just can't go back to the castle, because that's where the dogs are.
