I saw your ask about Gravity Falls so I shall deliver, rant as much as you want about Ford Pines.

Love this ask Ive been sitting with this one trying to think of something profound to say but my mind went blank...thats too much freedom for my pea brain i would love a more specific prompt 😭

Anyways i feel like people who cant actually understand dysfunctional families can never truly understand fords choices and relationship with them.

Obviously its a lot of pressure for an angry teenager who just got his dreams crushed to be expected to also prevent the crusher of said dreams from getting kicked out by their shithole father

But even beyond that. The people who dont understand why he appears to have gone no contact with his family (selfishly hoarding his college money) why should be be expected to give his money and emotional bandwidth to a family that At Best emotionally neglected him and his brother? Why do we so often omit Caryns complacency and the resentment he probably holds because of it? Or people assume ford was well liked by his father when filbrick very openly shows he only values him for his success and how that can finacially benefit him?

And the fact that he was the one to actually see that his and Stans codependency WASNT HEALTHY. it wasnt ! It Never Was! Just because stan wasnt ready to admit that yet doesn't mean ford was wrong for seeing it and wanting space to figure himself out, outside of the toxic environment, without someone to constantly be compared to ! I think people gloss over the fact too often that they absolutely did need distance from each other and to learn how to live as independent people, even tho it happened in the most unfortunate way it couldve.

And despite all this, Ford is still IMMEDIATELY enamoured with his niece and nephew, seeing himself in them, wanting to spend time with them and have a relationship with family for the first time in decades, even tho stan (who already literally erased him from his own life) instantly tries to keep him from that. As if he hasnt fucking lost enough family.

And then hes demonized for offering Dipper an education, showing genuine interest in dippers interest in the supernatural (something he didnt have a supportive adult do for him in his youth) and even trying to prevent similar codependency in the twins he assumes would be inevitable bc of his own upbringing

Ugh. Okay im done 4 now...

PARENT: I got "rubber duck" for my child's "bath" and she loves it.

AUTISM RESPONSE: Rubber ducks and other rubber bath toys can accumulate mold on the inside because of small holes underneath where moisture becomes trapped. The mold often goes unnoticed because it's not visible from the outside.

CORRECT RESPONSE(?): That's nice, I am unaware of how mold could impact this situation.
