28 They/Them, why get a partner when depression screws me every night

[low-keyscreaming]

I really don't like the Netflix live action Avatar.

I mean this with no disrespect to the actors, crew members, animators, or anyone who worked hard on this show. You're doing your best, and you do NOT deserve hate or mean comments from anonymous internet people.

I'll be honest I've only seen clips so maybe it's better in show and I'm just picky. But I really don't want to watch something that will just make me upset. My country is being ran by a pants shitting man baby who destroys everything he touches, so I really want my escapist media to be something I would enjoy. I'm purposely avoiding stuff I know I won't like because why waste what little time I have not wage slaving.

One scene I saw was the dinner scene with the Beifongs.

How hard would it have been to have her write in braille?

It would be great representation. Toph was born blind but she is from a very wealthy family, so it could make sense that they would get her a tutor just to not have an illerate daughter.

There could be a scene in the library episode where Aang finds a book in braille and wants to give it to Toph so she can enjoy a book like they get to. Only to leave the library and find that Toph couldn't save Appa. Imagine the heartbreak.

Maybe I'm blinded by nostalgia but all the changes I hear about just sound like missed opportunities for character moments. Avatar was my childhood, it was one of few things my family could bond over. I remember watching the end of Book 2 with them all glued to screen. No arguments, no insults, just everyone watching in quiet awe as we saw Azula strike Aang down. My mom even gasped and this was the second episode she watched. We would constantly check the TV for the newest episode and when it did come out we watched together. It was my favorite memory from a turbulent time in my life.

Heartbreaking News

Your favorite series got a 6 hour bad faith video essay by someone who didn’t really engage with the series to its fullest.

Look I know the fandom of Hazbin is...A LOT.

I know I get it but I still really like the show. And it just sucks that everytime I look it up all I get are video essays on why it's terrible and the pilot is better than the actual show.

For every amazing cover and cool redesign I get at least five "[blank] was better in pilot." "Vizie can't write to save her life." "Hazbin is terrible."

I just like musicals and animation man, its not that deep. It's hard but I will still call myself a fan of the show.

[low-keyscreaming]

So let me get this straight Nani leaves her only living relative (and one of the best marine biology college and a free ride scholarship) to study on the mainland.

Why?

Because it was unrealistic she would want to take care of Lilo.

Really?

My mom took care of three children and an inept manchild of a partner, was the main breadwinner, and went to night school.

She had me at 18.

But yeah sure being a girlboss means being a selfish asshole who only cares about yourself. Stop forcing american ideals on other cultures.

After a one-month long hunt, the vampire hunter returns home with a body full of hastily treated wounds and dark circles under the eyes. Yet, they are already preparing to embark on another hunt. Standing beside them, a vampire speaks up: "How long do you plan to live this way?"

After a one-month long hunt, the vampire hunter returns home with a body full of hastily treated wounds and dark circles under the eyes. Yet, they are already preparing to embark on another hunt. Standing beside them, a vampire speaks up: "How long do you plan to live this way?"

Maybe it was the drugs that numb their pain. Maybe it was the countless restless nights catching to them. Or maybe they had simply cracked from the pressure. Whatever the reason, the hunter didn't grab their weapon and decided to talk.

“I do good work, I can't abandon my duty.”

The ageless being tilted their head, staring at the hunter. “Being a killer is good work?” They asked.

“I don't hunt all vampires, I only seek the ones who lost their sanity to bloodlust.” The hunter adjusted the weight of the tools on their back. “The fact we are talking and you aren't going for my throat means you're safe.”

The hunter turned to leave, they had wasted precious seconds conversing with the vamp. The night was young but would be filled with danger. Any moonlight wasted was another wasted chance to save a life.

“You didn't answer my question. How long do you plan to live this way?”

The hunter paused. Their muscles still ache from previous hunts. Their hands calloused from using their weapon. Their wounds, old and new, were pulsing with the same dull ache. When they first started training they felt invincible but after a decade without the blinders of youth they truly felt their mortality.

They gazed into the scarlet eyes of the immortal. The vampire, with a patience born from a century long existence, was waiting for a response. Their expression was not mocking or sneering but simply curious.

They sighed and continued walking. “As long as I am needed. As long as I am useful.”

‼️MIRACULOUS REDESIGNS‼️

I'm planning to do a BIG series of Kwami swaps (80 additional designs, plz wish me luck 🙏) but first I needed some basics of my design principles for each character and Kwami, so here are all the designs I'm working with::

To make the 80 designs more manageable, my plan is to work by the Miraculous first, for example I'll do all of the bee & all of the snake designs rather than all of Chloe & all of Luka's designs, that way I'm working in slightly smaller batches of designs & I can keep them unique enough from one another

And if anyone is curious, here's my chart for organizing the swaps and also the hero names:

KWAMI SWAP

(and I'm allowing comments on the document if you have any thoughts or alternate names (bc I'm not sold on ALL of them) so plz feel free to do so)

P.S. I don't intend on doing anything with this in terms of a story or lore, or even full illustrations, it's just something I've wanted to do for a long time

[low-keyscreaming]

Oh my god. OH MY GOD! OH. MY. GOD.

[itsapmseymour]

I have tried to be a source of comfort from the problems we are seeing today,

But guys,

The show is fine, I just got bored of it

They didn’t explore the lovesquare enough

They threw in an idea that caused problems

A mix of 2 answers

(Complicated: explain in tags)

Just want to see results

Put in the tags the details of your gripe

[low-keyscreaming]

There's alot of things, way too many for tags so I'll make a list. Just a warning I dropped the show a while ago so I'm not super up to date so some problems probably got fixed and I just don't know.

Ahem...

The show is called Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Chat Noir meaning it should be about the two of them. But Chat Noir is constantly treated like a joke. He wasn't even told about Master Fu and the other Kwamis st first. Why? He got Plagg the same time Mari got Tikki why is he being left in the dark. Yeah I'd give up my ring too if new heroes kept popping up and disappearing and I had no idea where my partner was going. It's like he's a sidekick.

The romance. I admit as an ace person I kinda roll my eyes at a lot of romance but here it's so shallow. Like I've been a kid, I've had crushes, I have not constantly hit on a person when we're both trying to work or made complicated schemes just to talk them. I understand Chat Noir being frustrated but Ladybug has made very clear she isn't interested in him. And Adrien is his own person, he deserves to have say in who he dates he shouldn't be tricked into it.

Some powers are so broken while others are just akuma 2.0. Why is the peacock miraculous and the butterfly miraculous feel so similar? Why is the rooster so busted? There are two Kwamis that can travel through time. Why does everyone in Marinette's class need a miraculous it makes them less special. Why does Ladybug have two powers while Chat Noir gets one. I know Destruction is powerful but give him something else.

This a spoiler for the season five finale but I haven't seen the episode fully I just know because Tumblr and some thumbnails on YouTube. Marinette defeats Hawkmoth. Marinette, by herself, defeats the main villain we've been following for years. We're denied seeing Adrien struggle with the knowledge that his father, the man who raised him has put his and the people he cares about in danger over and over again. And they martyred him and lied that he was a good person when he could have used his miraculous to create a person who has the power to heal his wife.

The adults in this show are so dumb and so childish it's a wonder anything gets done. Obviously they don't need the exposure because their art speaks for itself but oh my God follow the Scarlet Lady by Zoe-oneesama. I love the moments where they point out the complete lack of logic in the show. Plus they're actually very funny.

[low-keyscreaming]

So I just woke up and it looks like the Fascists won

That's so great

[low-keyscreaming]

Adam was already long dead before Nifty stabbed him

LOOK AT HIM LOOK AT HIS SMUG LITTLE FACE

[weeboncrack]

Honestly, Charlie and Lucifer look so good. I love seeing their full demon forms, I kind of doubt this is Charlie's full demon form but from what we got it's looking good. Ngl Charlie reminds me of Star from SVTFOE.

[low-keyscreaming]

I'm still convinced we haven't seen Charlie's whole form

Look at Luci for Satan's sake there's just no way this is it for my girl
