the great thing about the wuxia genre is you can start a sect called the Evil Blood Cult in a place called Demon Mountain that’s a volcano full of poison and you all wear crazy gothic black and red hanfu and practice Sinister Backstabber Style kung fu and like. that’s not a deterrent to prospective disciples. do all that and a fuckton of bright eyed youngsters will still show up at your door and say hello i would like to join the demon mountain evil blood cult where do i sign up?

"I learned a lot from making this" is artist talk for "making this sucked ass and I'm not entirely happy with the result."

we seriously need to stop conceding to the personhood trap when it comes to abortion rights. is a fetus a person? thats a spiritual question. i dont care about the answer. should another person dictate what someone can do with their body? simple answer: no.

[petewentzisblack1312]

like if a fetus isnt a person it has no right to my body and if a fetus IS a peson it also has no right to my body because there is no other context in which we are required to put ourselves at risk of physical harm to preserve another persons safety or even life.

you dont have to save someone from drowning even if youre a strong swimmer. even in death youre not required to donate organs and that could save several people. you can kill someone if you truly believe your safety is at risk. we dont mandate preservation of life over autonomy in any of these circumstances.

tell me more about how steven universe has facade (2005) in its writing im intrigued

facade (which, for anyone who hasn't played it, is about a person walking in on an argument between two married friends and their attempts to mediate their quite broken relationship during a dinner with them) is noted as something that influenced the showrunner in a few interviews and I definitely think you could argue picks at similar things, specifically in how a lot of the drama of steven universe is structured around its main character having to get in between shitty and not necessarily solvable interpersonal arguments between people. it's also often a bit voyeuristic (for lack of a better term) in a similar way; one of SU's most oft criticized choices (and one which I personally like a lot) is that the show never breaks from steven's perspective, and as a result of that the show is peppered with scenes of him overhearing weighty private conversations between the adults around him, not unlike how a lot of facade plays out:

i think you could say one of the main artistic goals of the show is capturing the feeling of becoming cognizant of how your parents are also real people who are just as vindictive and scared and messy as you are and the way that can kind of mess with you; it's, imo, gesturing at similar things facade is going for but for the specific perspective of young teenagers

people like the idea that there is an identity they can claim that will absolve them of the responsibility to examine their beliefs and actions and adjust them accordingly to better align with their values and desired outcomes but there isn't, we all have to practice humility and do the work regardless

can we please please please learn to differentiate between things that are good but devalued because of their association with women (caring for children, being compassionate), things that are neutral but seen negatively because of their association with women (the colour pink, having long hair), and things that are bad but associated with women because of misogyny (being materialistic, being stupid) because otherwise we’re gonna keep getting takes like “being gender nonconforming is anti feminist” and “not studying for your classes is feminist”
