Being able to draw older people as attractive without reducing or erasing the visual signs of aging, and in fact showing that they're attractive because of those signs, is an artistic skill that should be valued so much more. Honestly, it should earn you an immediate fortune because holy fuck is it a rare commodity. There are so many artists who seem to think attractiveness and aging exist in opposition to each other, so they smooth every wrinkle, erase every crease, and de-age the character until they're basically thirty with silver hair. But when an artist can look at crow's feet, smile lines, weathered skin, deep-set wrinkles, and all the little traces of a life well lived and say, "No, that's what makes them beautiful," that's a level of artistic observation and care I wish we celebrated more often.

Thinking about Phineas' dynamic with Perry as a pet owner. Like he doesn't know everything about Perry's double life but he does know him on a personal level that keeps surprising Perry. He knows exactly that spot to scratch that makes Perry want to itch himself with his hind leg. He knows what spot makes his tail going up straight. He knows Perry's favorite foods and treats. He knows when Perry is having a nightmare before he wakes up. He can notice when Perry is sick before Perry knows he's sick.

And there's this familial vulnerability Perry has with him too when he's in pet mode. Phineas gives him a band-aid if he's hurt. He puts Perry in a sweater if he gets too cold. He pets Perry when Perry is too restless to fall sleep. He holds Perry when they go to the veterinarian. He hugs him when he gets a shot and Perry is pretending to be so brave about it.

He can put on a tough guy act when he's an agent but when he's a pet he's forced to be taken care of. He can't pretend to be fine around Phineas because Phineas notices things in his body language and little mannerisms from knowing Perry since he was a little puggle.

Phineas knows nothing about Perry but at the same time he also knows more about Perry on a personal level than Monogram or Doofenshmirtz knows

Reasons for hope: Lots of amazing people did a ton of work to make this fantastic, fully interactive resource available - because no matter how bleak things seem, there are millions, and millions of people doing everything they can to protect both the world and their own communities.

You can use this to view and subscribe to updates, project statuses, and for at least some of them even whole dossiers. This is an amazing resource, I highly recommend checking it out

genuinely I'm so sick of people wanting all fiction to be ethical. can we all just get a little gross with it. the point of fiction is that it's not real. we can be unethical in fiction; same goes with being perverted with fiction, being unrealistic with fiction, and being grotesque with fiction. not all fiction has to be ethical, not every character has to be ethical, and that's okay. can we stop with the puritanism. be gross. be unrealistic. be whatever. if I don't like it it's not my business as long as we're all clear that its fictional.

via ered.bsky.social, the only kinds of unethical fiction:

people in the replies are going "what about books glorifying unethical things" and "what if it's propaganda" and you, my friends, are who this comic was made for

The Flynn-Fletchers definitely woke up to a murder scene the next morning where the gruesome homicide was perpetrated by their pet platypus.

Extremely fucking stupid bc genuinely who cares. Walking sticks are literally for anyone. They help you when you walk around. Perfectly healthy and abled bodied people use them while hiking because they just work.

And what if it was just a fashion thing? It used to be trendy. It gives your outfit a different vibe. Experimenting with fashion is fun, there's literally zero things wrong with using a cane because you like the way it looks or how it makes you feel.

Every single person choosing to use a mobility aid in public normalises their use, and makes it less likely for me to get harassed out there. It just becomes a regular thing you see while out in public. And that's the exact thing ableist TERFs like Stock are actually against - Not even mentioning the absolutely obvious misogyny here.

Covid was a mass disabling event. It continues to affect many, many people. Denying reality and gaslighting disabled people will not make us go away

My neurologist is thrilled. Even just 10 years ago, he had so much more difficulty getting patients to use canes or walking sticks. Especially when, like me, about 80% of my walking is just fine. That 20%? Migraine with hemiplegia/hemialgesia/hemianalgesia (yes all in the same hemi). Chronic pain in my feet, which sometimes means cramps that make me unstable. I use a cane for short distances, rollator for medium, and have a mobility scooter for long distances.

He went on a mini-rant a while ago that was basically thanking me for using one because know what happens when someone is 80% fine to walk without a cane?

Falls. Major fall injuries including head injuries and TBI. Minor injuries leading to avoidance of walking and the resulting deconditioning leading to that 80% becoming 60%, then continuing to decline.

Whatever helps people move and reduces their risk of injury is amazing.

Mobility devices are great!

queerautism

I talk about this a lot - People simply do not take falls seriously enough. They are extremely dangerous. Anything you can do to mitigate fall risks, especially as you become older, is very very important.

As you said, the stigma against mobility aids used to be much stronger, and many older people straight up refuse to use them. They are the main demographic that are the expected users, the 'understandable' use case, that most people agree makes sense. Their doctors are often begging them to use them. And yet the stigma is so great, and has such power, that people with very reduced mobility would rather continue to struggle and push through without them until they have a fall that greatly injures them. It's so unnecessary and so heartbreaking.

We need to push for mobility aids to be seen as a normal, regular part of society. Something for every kind of person who can benefit from one in any way. That's the only way to eliminate that stigma and empower everyone, so no one is put in the position to sacrifice their safety for the sake of not becoming othered and judged.
