My mom (left) and my dad (lobster) going on their first date (circa 1952).
troy and abed as bert and ernie (expand to see the reference screenshot)
i think something that really stands out in the way the narrative of the show treats Abed (in contrast to the way other sitcoms treat their autistic coded characters *cough* big bang theory *cough*) is that Abed is loved and appreciated for his autistic traits rather than in spite of them.
like when Abed is doing his My Dinner with Andre bit in Critical Film Studies. the reaction is never "oh Abed's acting normal. Finally" and the tone is at no point celebratory about it. it's immediate concern over the fact that Abed is not acting autistic.
there is exactly one plotline where the rest of the study group attempts to make him act in a neurotypical way and it happens very early on. and the resolution on that episode is not "we should let Abed be himself even though he may never have a girlfriend." it's "we should let Abed be himself because people love him for traits of his that are specifically autistic."
the way Abed is treated is something that just really stands out as compassionate and respectful to Community's autistic audience
Re: the last post, the article mentions that some places use clams to test the toxicity of the water. It’s like that in Warsaw- we get our water from the river, and the main water pump has 8 clams that have triggers attached to their shells. If the water gets too toxic, they close, and the triggers shut off the city water supply automatically.
The clams are just better at measuring the water quality than any man-made sensors.
Edit: check out this documentary trailer : https://vimeo.com/408820791
God Bless Our Troops
They hot glued a spring to a clam and gave it full control over the water supply
No of course not, that would be ridiculous.
They hot glued springs to eight clams and gave them collective control over the water supply.
No of course not, hot glue would kill the clams.
The used silicone adhesive to attach springs to eight clams and gave them collective control over the water supply.
i always think about that study where they had adults hold a baby, and when they were told the baby was a girl the adults said she was cute and small, and when they were told the baby was a boy they said he was big and strong. they rated the baby’s ability to do things and tendency towards certain toys differently. they even held the baby differently. (x) or when they rated the baby’s physical ability to do various tasks such as climbing up a slope differently, (x) & when they measured how much parents told their girl children vs. their boy children to be careful and stop being so rowdy (x), & when they measured how often girls and boys were told to be quiet. (x) this was, obviously, all unconscious behavior in the adults. they’re not all like, raving sexists who outspokenly believe that women can’t do stuff or that girls really should just be quieter, be more still than boys. like its not even counting the direct, actual messages, its just literally how every single person in your entire life treats you, and if asked they would probably deny that its even because you’re a girl. how the fuck am i supposed to believe this doesn’t affect a child’s development when its literally constant throughout the entire process
This shit starts as soon as early as when someone’s still a fucking fetus. I’ve heard the saying “discrimination starts as soon as you leave the womb” but it actually starts earlier than that.
GoddAMN I am so sick of genders
“Delusions of Gender” by Cordelia Fine goes over all this in lots of detail if you want to be REALLY infuriated (and educated!)
Obsessed with the idea of like some guy from Queens meeting a vampire and referring to him as “a dracula” like. “hey buddy I ain’t lettin no Dracula into my house” and the vampire being on the cusp of a migraine going “that was ONE guy. I don’t call all you humans Bill Clintons” and the guy from queens being like “hey hey don’t try an do no Dracula hypnotism on me” and then you know they explore each other’s bodies
Sorry this is literally the funniest thing ever

[Edits of azula without makeup]
She was 14 man
This was very deliberate on the part of the creators when you think about it. Other girls her age in the series don’t wear makeup or at least don’t wear as much. (Ex. Katara, Ty Lee, Mai and evening Suki when she’s not wearing her Kyoshi makeup) With Azula the large amounts of make up are another way to show that she’s trying to grow up too fast. She’s an angry, damaged, little girl who uses the illusion of perfection to protect her ego, sanity and perhaps her life from an abusive father who has no use for children that don’t obey and live up to his expectations.
#also people who comment shes prettier this way are missing the point #that type of attitude plays into girls feeling their value is based upon their looks #and is even more insidious when applied to young girls #ultimately whether or not someone wears makeup is up to them but in the context of a story like this its used as a story telling device #which so very evident when you compare her to girls in the series close to her age #like katara or even ty lee or mai @rossithepixie
I was gonna make a separate post about this exact thing that i saw happening on this post. A lot of people commented that she looked prettier, but that wasn’t my intention at all. At first I did it out of curiosity, because her make-up is such a clear decision in her character design that speaks a lot about who she is, or well, who she’s trying to be. I wasn’t prepared for such a contrast. It wasn’t because she looked prettier, its because she looked so young. Rossithepixie basically said everything i wanted to with these edits.
if zuko had been allowed to drop f-bombs in atla (x)
regarding all the hooplah about my work being reposted without credit: this is why. i really prefer retweets and reblogs, but if you must repost, this is what citing the creator had the power to do. removing us from the equation is denying us proper exposure to potential clients when this is the only means of income we have. edit: the article shown here is not about me!! i appreciate all the congrats comments but i was merely showing the power proper credit has.
Don’t repost stuff, but if you do, give credit
The INCREDIBLE irony about this being a screenshot of an article without a link to the actual fucking article.
Here you go babes.
