[fangirlinginleatherboots]

some things that horror movie culture has taught you are scary…. are just ableist

[artishroom]

….clarify?

[fangirlinginleatherboots]

okay sure. psychosis? scarier to have than to know someone who has it. DID? im more a threat to myself than people around me. wheelchairs and psych meds? are tools that help people live more functional and flexible lives and are not judgments of the persons character and for sure are not scary things. and for real, intellectually disabled people are not threats, but movies love to make them villains because they act different and understand the world differently. and people with notable physical differences? people who’s bodies look different? people with scars, growths, amputations, etc? are literally just people. and seeing themselves painted like monsters on the big screen is absolutely sickening and damaging to how society will see them.

its not only bad writing but its extremely harmful to people who actually live with conditions that are misrepresented in media. when i found out i had DID, my mom freaked out because her only point of reference was Sybil. when i was younger and first went on psych meds, i thought it meant i was set on a track to be a bad person, because in so many movies and video games you find out the bad guy has medication in his bed side table for some sort of psych disorder. the worst thing a hallucination has ever made me do was wake my mom up at 3 AM to check my bathroom to see if the bugs i saw everywhere were real and the worst thing an “episode” of any sort has made me do is hurt myself. my ptsd doesnt make me kill people, my alters dont kidnap people, my autism doesnt make me so morally unaware that ill murder for senselessly, my ocd doesnt make me hurt people etc etc etc

literally the only “horror” is the ableism. and the only way you can write good horror about disability and mental illness is if the focus is on how society and the medical field treat us rather than focusing on how we are apparently so scary, threatening, and bad.

[quiet-reassurance]

Horror is and has historically been an incredibly ableist genre, and it is still largely unrecognized as such. This has genuine severe and real-life consequences for disabled and neurodivergent people in real life. Please keep this in mind if you are abled and/or neurotypical.

If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading

[eeadrawings]

Tutu polyphon Around 40 characters are represented. Translations and more close-ups under the cut.

To fit with the episode 14 character Nyājinsky (after Vaslav Nijinsky), the other real-life names are animalized as well (mostly in Japanese or English, like Gutenberg to Goosenberg, Taglioni to Toraglioni, etc.), so I included them with the German translations. And I don’t speak German, so feel free to correct me on anything.

Blumenwalzer = Waltz of the Flowers

Nussknacker und Mausekönig = The Nutcracker and the Mouse King E. T. A. Hooffmann = E. T. A. Hoffmann D. D. Druckerpresse = D. D. + printing press

Schwanensee Quellenforschung = Swan Lake Sources and Influences Der geraubte Schleir = The Stolen Veil Johane Kārl Auspist Musäugurs = Johann Karl August Musäus (hane = feather, kā = crow sound/ auspice and augur [bird omens] might be hard to pick out of the others) Die weiße Ente = The White Duck Alewander Arfaunasyip = Alexander Afanasyev (wan = dog sound) Schwanenjungfrau Folklore-Traditionen = Swan Maiden Folklore Traditions Umazurakōmorinosuke (episode 21 bat. His name in the credits is pretty funny, as he’s a hammer-headed bat, so he’s umazura [horse-faced], kōmori [bat], then nosuke, a suffix that gives off an assistant/administrative/old-timey vibe [it was originally a title used for samurai working as government officials in the Edo era], hence him being an assistant at the library circulation desk). Der Märchenkönig: Ludcyg II. Biografie = The Fairy Tale King: Ludwig II Biography (cyg = cygnus [swan]. This influence is partially debatable, as some claims of it are due to Ludwig II’s 1886 lake drowning, which was after Swan Lake’s 1877 premiere [but to complicate things, the most common ending is from 1895 libretto, so it remains a possibility with any after]. But Tchaikovsky’s contemporaries did say he was inspired by Ludwig II, who was also known as the Swan King and an infamous Wagner fan and patron. Leading to Swan Lake’s many Wagner/medieval Germanic legend similarities, like the Siegfrieds in both the Ring Cycle and Swan Lake falsely confess their love to another woman due to the enemy’s magical deception and their unintentional betrayal of Brünnhilde/Odette causes all their deaths, Brünnhilde’s immolation and return of the ring to the Rhine’s waters lifting its curse compared with Odette and Siegfried drowning in the lake lifting the swan maidens’ curse [in later versions], Lohengrin being the Knight of the Swan, Gottfried enchanted into a swan by Ortrud, the relationship between swan maidens and either valkyrie or the Knight of the Swan in folklore, etc. Then, the swan theme is pretty undeniably derived from Lohengrin’s forbidden question leitmotif, and both represent impending tragedy as well). Eichenbaum von Goldkrone = Oak tree of Kinkan/Goldkrone Buchleute verboten = Bookpeople-banned (I’ve mostly seen them translated as “bookmen,” but they’re 図書の者 / tosho no mono, which doesn’t specify gender). Pike Lilie

Trilby; oder Die Fee von Argyll = Trilby; or, The Fairy of Argyll (La Sylphide basis) Charles Tsunodier = Charles Nodier (tsuno = horns or antlers) Vorwort = Foreword Ein Rezept für „Bravo!“ Spitzenschuh-Frikassee = A Recipe for “Bravo!” Pointe Shoe Fricassee (Rue mentions the legend of Marie Taglioni’s fans eating her shoes in episode 9. Tutu’s costume is also partially inspired by Taglioni’s in La Sylphide). Marie Toraglioni = Marie Taglioni (tora = tiger) Nachwort = Afterword Schottenstoff pas de chat: die Grundlagen für ein haarfrei Kilt = Tartan pas de chat: The Fundamentals for a (Cat) Hair-free Kilt (pas de chat is a ballet leap meant to look like a cat [chat]). Nyājinsky Scheherausgabe = Scheherazade + publishing (herausgabe)

Das hässliche Entlein = The Ugly Duckling Honks Chriswigeon Gandersen = Hans Christian Andersen Goosenberg = (Johannes) Gutenberg

The next part (library checkout card on the right) can only be read on the unskewed version attached at the end. Buch-Nr. = Book number / P22 / 16.08.2002 / 26.AKT (Akt = ballet act or scene. Used in Tutu’s episode titles) Verfasser = Author / D. D. Drosselmeyer Titel = Title / Prinz und Rabe = The Prince and the Raven Ausgeliehen = Borrowed / Leser = Reader / Zurückgegeben = Returned Uzura! (Fakir is correcting her writing) 15.AKT Autor 26.AKT (he’s testing out author’s signatures for his future tragic masterpiece) 10.AKT Waniko 26.AKT / 15.AKT Armajirō 26.AKT / 18.AKT Boayo 18.AKT / 17.AKT Montand 17.AKT / 9.AKT Yagiko-sensei 26.AKT / 19.AKT Lysander 26.AKT 21.AKT Marie und Clara 21.AKT (Two extras listed in the credits. Marie is the main character of The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, while Clara is usually her name in the ballet adaptation) 1.AKT Fakir 26.AKT (It’s supposed to look like his handwriting in episode 23. A cool detail in the show is that when he’s possessed by Drosselmeyer in 25, his handwriting looks different and much more sophisticated) Schwanz (Uzura drew a picture of Ahiru as a duck and tried to write the word for “tail” [Schwanz], but instead wrote the word for “swan” [Schwan], so Fakir added in the Z)

more doodles and sketches I will probably not finish

lately have been mostly freed from zine modding purgatory so I am reteaching myself to draw 🥹🥹🥹

i am very normal about them lol

[plushiekush-deactivated20250830]

white ppl will steal every aesthetic from black culture and then call it something so stupid like bo derek braids instead of box braids or hasbin hotel core instead of black southern dandism. yall will bend over backwards to call my culture barbaric/scary just to drool over the aesthetic the moment no actual black people are involved (21 pilots vs actual reggae). And if ur white/nonblack reading this just reblog. I dont need any comments talking about how not racist you are + speaking up over actual black people.

Been reading a bunch of zelda books and comics and this one was definetly one of my favorites :>

It's A Link to the Past by Junko Taguchi

I saw her hair as brown while reading so that's what i went with but yeah (also i just guessed with the color of her dress it just reads as burgundy to me)
