Master Fu was wrong for giving two kids miraculous but right for choosing these two specific kids who fit so perfectly together. He still wasn't completely wrong, he knew what he was doing, he just needed someone older and to give them more/equal attention. He was still a bad mentor but he did at least something right.

How society makes us perceive age is absolutely absurd and fucked up, to the point of mass psychological abuse if you ask me. Growing up I never really appreciated how much the idea of youth was pathological until I reached 24 and suddenly everyone (of every age) started making little commentaries about how much I “did not look my age”, “way younger” etc, hinting in the subtext I wasn’t in fact so young anymore. The thing is increasing exponentially with every knew birthday. I’m 28 now. Every time someone asks my age they point out how I look “younger”. The other day a 18 year old actually apologized for mistaking me for someone the same age as them and treating me like I was a girl lol All this really made me realize how much dread and pressure we condemn ourselves to suffer since a very tender age because of our fucked up youth standards. When I was 14 I thought I was a grown up and an adult. Same thing at 18. Ten years later I still feel pretty much the same, yet I just realize now how much of an infant I actually was. I’m sure I’m gonna feel the same in ten years - the same, yet more and more myself. We are actually only starting getting young, existing, in our 20s. 40 isn’t even the middle of our life. Society really must stop feeding the idea, especially to women, that life is done at 25, while life doesn’t even really starts at 25 for many people. I was one of the many who suffered with anxiety and depression since 12. I didn’t imagine to be alive to see my 18th birthday. The pressure of everyone suggesting the best of your life is now gone and lost in as little as in our 20s is not only ridiculous, but dangerous and inhumane. I guess I just wanted to say this to everyone who may need to hear it. You are still very young and you’ll always be. The soul doesn’t really age in the way everyone makes you dread. No one is gonna steal your life and being away from you. It’s all a very big lie.

one of my favourite things i keep coming back to is something john berger said somewhere that people are born within two times: biological time and conscious time, and that they aren't necessarily the same thing. equating the two as though they are the same is a massive misunderstanding of how we experience and process literally any aspect of our being alive here on earth. so yes, this is exactly it, yes, and i'm so glad you are able to move in a much healthier direction regarding all of this. it makes life so much richer and just easier in the end x

This trend of using magical realism as a medium of telling stories about intergenerational trauma has me LIVING.

People saying Turning Red is cringe and I’m, like, yes. Of course it’s cringe. It’s a movie about a 13-year-old. Have you met 13 year olds? Like, ever? They are all cringe, it’s part of being a teenager

But, like, just because you can’t identify with being a cringe teenager anymore doesn’t mean movie bad

Also if you’re thinking to yourself “lmao I’m not cringe”/“I wasn’t cringe as a teenager”, i have some news for you: actually yeah you are/were, you just have no self-awareness :/

Really took until 2022 for us to say "cringe culture is dead and we should let teens be teens" huh?

noticing how a lot of the people disliking turning red are middle aged men who are angry a movie doesn’t cater to them for once

Honestly i think they're everything. Honesty i think you should watch the movie just for them.

I’ll say it:

If you can only enjoy media that is made for you, caters to you, or represents your specific experiences, then you’re a bad consumer of media.

“Turning Red was weird because it’s about a 13-year-old Asian girl and I’m a grown ass white man!”

“She-ra doesn’t show cleavage and her legs; which i like being attracted to!”

“I love [insert mâle gay relationship] as a straight cis woman! Haha so cute smol bois!! But I don’t like [insert female gay relationship] because they’re gay and I can’t fetishize/relate to that!”

“I can’t read that book about a trans man/trans girl/nb person because I’m not those things and therefor this piece of media is bad!”

Like stfu and just say you don’t have the capability to look outside of your tiny worldview and enjoy shit that isn’t the cookie cutter picture of everything you’ve been spoon fed from birth.

bear with me because i only know this in makeup terms. But green color corrector/concealer is known for hiding red spots and acne right? So isn’t it fascinating that Ming started off with no green:
