once on the tv tropes forums i saw someone really weirdly hung up on the fact miles had a guy's name and they annoyed me so much that i decided to headcanon miles as transmasc lol

(i also headcanon he was mistaken as dead after he and laurie landed on that cannibal island because he stayed for some time and eventually started presenting as male with a slight name change, and along the way found companionship with izzy who also keeps changing her name and identity.... cuz i like my AUs batshit lol)

anyway so i drew this for @mikatoonist's td pride collab to further the trans miles agenda yay!

btw fresh thanks for clarifying laurie is half black

is it alright to like the vegans? i personally enjoyed their characters and thought they were pretty funny parodies of actual hippies.

im white so u shouldnt rlly be asking me. but i think the main flaw is in laurie’s design? their characters themselves don’t come across as offensive or even condescending.

 but it’s annoying and if they wanted to better parody that thing they should have had someone point out how laurie either is at least partially black and able to wear her hair like that, or if she isn’t black then she shouldn’t be. not that i have faith in fresh to actually give a positive political message anymore

kinda feel for miles tho...having to eat meat when your body isnt conditioned for it and that meat being a food you typically dont see people from your home eat anyway...and it being all for naught too

emilie claire barlow, no matter what you say you're gonna sound like courtney if you speak too loudly. ellody always sounded like her, and laurie throwing a hissy fit sounded like her. her voice is very recognizable and it's harder to get away with this

the vegans are funny parodies tbh I just wish someone on the show called out how full of shit lauries outfit is even once

[totaldramautism]

yes, in the thread fresh was responding to "is she jamaican/canadian" and said yes

they said, and i quote, ‘Yeah she is bi-racial [sic]’ they didnt say she was jamaican. it felt like they were handwaving the question either way. 

i would like to hc such but i feel its an asspull on fresh’s part since there doesnt seem to be much effort on her character design to make her look black (facial features, etc)

[totaldramautism]

even if laurie is biracial if she isnt black she still shouldnt be wearing dreads. it isnt just a general nonwhite style its specific to black people and laurie hasnt been stated to be black
