roald dahl was antisemitic and misogynistic. george orwell was openly homophobic. edgar allan poe married his 13 year old cousin. dr seuss cheated on his wife (and was racist as well as antisemitic!). hp lovecraft was racist as fuck. anyways they’re fucking dead it’s not like you’re enabling their behaviors in the afterlife or something. then again I think they bleed into the books so uh keep an eye out for that

the difference between these old white guys and jk rowling is that the former group is all dead. jk rowling is alive and using your money to oppress trans people

this is not to say you shouldn't make characters with strabismus- you should! i want to see people with my disabilities! but i think a little research can go a long way. i'd love to see it given more depth in writing than just being an indicator of intelligence (which it isn't and never has been!)

[piercingcomet]

[ID: graphic titled "THIS IS A VISUAL IMPAIRMENT CALLED 'STRABISMUS'!!"

below, are four drawings of a very fluffy creature with different presentations of strabismus. they're each labelled "hypotropia (eye points downward)," "exotropia (eye points outward)," "hypertropia (eye points upward," and "esotropia (eye points inward)."

the last has an arrow, with text reading "i looked like this when i was born!"

bottom text: it's not a quirky character design, it's a real disability!

it does not mean someone is clumsy, "stupid," or autistic

(ableist depictions of autistic and/or otherwise intellectually disabled people often have strabismus. why do you think this is?)

strabismus can occur from birth, later in life due to separate visual impairments, or because of physical trauma or strokes. it can cause permanent vision issues.

i'm partially blind in one eye!

when you design a character, think about if the traits you give them exist on real people! they often do!

what do you want your art to say about disabled people?

Been thinking a lot about why VeggieTales is so unironically good when so much Christian media just completely sucks and what makes VT different, and honestly I think it boils down to the fact that VT is focused SO much less on evangelizing or spreading fear. There aren't any VeggieTales episodes telling kids to go convert their friends or they'll go to hell– I don't think they ever mention or imply hell at all. (Note that I stopped watching around, like, the early 2010s, when the og creator left and the specials started to suck.) The general idea of the morality tales isn't "sin is bad because it makes God hate you and send you to hell," it's "sin is bad because it hurts yourself or others and that makes God sad because he loves you and wants you to be happy." It's "spread God's love" not to convert everyone and make them go to Church, but because it's just the right thing to do to be nice to people. I think the only special that maybe got close to being evangelical was Easter Carol with the "if the church wasn't here this place would suck," but to be completely fair it was a Christmas Carol adaptation and you have to pull a Bad Future outta somewhere, and that ep was also very focused on focusing on the actual message of Easter and how it should inspire you to be kind instead of prideful.

I think what makes VeggieTales better than so much other Christian media is that it's so much more focused on the love than rules or threats. It was made by people who just wanted to make something within their belief system and entertain children, and not in order to force people into their ideals. And also they wanted to have the talking Veggies sing about grammar and hairbrushes and joke about the IRS and we all sat there, six years old, going "yes sir Mr Tomato whatever you say Mr Tomato"

For those who have missed it, a tourist in Hawaii decided it would be fun to chuck a rock (a BIG rock) at a monk seal. He missed, but he was captured on video, and when told it was illegal to interfere with them, said "I'm rich, I can pay the fine."

Is the best part that he got doxxed? No.

Is the best part that he got tracked down by a local and beaten? No.

Arrested on state at federal charges, looking at up to 5 years and 50K? Nope.

The best part is the local city council's reaction.

And the best part of that is the look on the attorney's face.

“Ghosts are real” I can see how you could believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real” it’s very fair and rational that you believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real anymore” I’m about to hear a poem or very sad story

“Ghosts aren’t real yet” the fuck are you going to do

I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.

And there are so many articles and videos and discussions. Like, the scientific community is buzzing about this.

So much research will have to be redone because the data was absolutely compromised, off by orders of magnitude, by using standard lab gloves.

The world is probably not horrifically contaminated by microplastics. Sterile laboratories, however, are contaminated by latex and nitrile gloves.

Thank God someone bothered to check.

[transfemme-shelterdog]

BTW making fun of trans women and transfems who grow facial hair who are currently going through a major depression episode for having visible facial hair is fucked up.

Sometimes you just don't have the energy to shave. That's not something you should shame them for. It'll only make things worse.
