If you want non-monogamy to be more normalized, clap your hands.
If you want monogamy to be taught as a conscious commitment rather than a default, clap your hands.
If you want jealousy and possessiveness to stop being viewed as healthy characteristics of passionate, loving relationships, and you /really/ want to show it…
If you support polyamory and you know it, clap your hands.
I actually love how the characters heights are flexible from shot to shot, purely because if you analyse the right screenshots you can easily come to this conclusion about peridot and jasper’s size difference:
ok this has been bothering me a while and i’m just now getting fed up enough to write about it but like
it really bugs me how people (on tumblr) seem to now think of furries as just a quick buck. like I’m not gonna call out any posts but there have been a few that circulate frequently (i can almost guarantee you have seen at least two) and they’re all variations of “DON’T HAVE A COMMISSION AUDIENCE?? JUST GET A FURAFFINITY ACCOUNT!! INSTANT POPULARITY! THE FURRIES WILL COME TO THE RESCUE!!”
this bothers me cause i FUCKING KNOW a good 80-90% of the people who reblog these posts think furries are the weirdest dumbest biggest pile of oddballs online.
like out of all the cliques/fandoms/whatever types of groups online, furries are definitely up there with the ones who have gotten and continue to get the most hate/ridicule and are mocked constantly.
and now that these ‘lol furries pay good money for your art’ posts are going around everyone seems ready to just drop this stigma or at least PRETEND to drop it. like getting an account to expand your audience and get more commissions is fine, there’s nothing wrong with that and i know several people who did it, but like. i know SO MANY PEOPLE are just painting furries as this huge group of losers who are just there to make some money off of.
like most of these posts seem to come off as “oh yeah furries are fucking weird and i make fun of them all the time but now that i know they have money, i’ll just put on a furry mask, draw some dogs, and these guys will just eat my shit right up, meanwhile i still think of them as a giant group of weirdos i wouldn’t touch with a 10 foot pole”
I’m not saying it’s wrong to involve oneself in the furry fandom for the purpose of commissions, because that’s basically a parallel to what industry artists have to do with getting involved with the tv/game scene. It’s when people rip on furries and look down on them as the butt of jokes while simultaneously trying to get their cash, that I have a problem. it’s just frustrating to see this new stigma floating around. like the negative perception of furries hasn’t changed, but nOW THEY HAVE MONEY FOR ME WHEE
not saying you have to adore furries and have a fursona and fursuit and go the whole 9 yards in order to try take commissions, but if you’re gonna milk a group of people for their money, maybe change your attitude about them
I know we all love Edna because she’s super fierce and determined and an awesome role model and shit but
do you ever think that she feels intensely guilty over this, having made this suit that lead to the death of this amazing young girl
Maybe there’s a reason she never looks back.
Repeated for emphasis:
Maybe there’s a reason she never looks back.
Edna at the funeral, veiled from head to toe, slowly ripping pages out of her pocket sketchbook and mouthing the words “no capes”
you people are monsters
What the actual fuck oh my god
Think about how appalled Edna must have been. How traumatized. How guilty she must have felt over the death of this young girl.
Then realize that Edna anticipated practically every threat that the Incredibles would run into from Syndrome and built help into their suits. The only logical conclusion is that he contacted her–possibly scores of times. Syndrome was a stalkery fanboy before he turned supervillain. And Edna is THE suit maker for supers, as well as Mr. Incredible. Of course Syndrome would go to her. Edna is the best, and Syndrome would want the best designer for his costume.
Think about all that. Think about the woman who was so horrified and grief-stricken by Stratogate’s death being asked by a supervillain–one who was a genuine threat to supers she cared about–to design his costume.
And then realize that, despite her horror and guilt and rage at the gruesome deaths of Stratogate and other supers, despite her vehement conviction that such deaths should never happen again…
I’ve found it. The epitome of terrible ally culture. This is it. Jokes on them, they were using water cannons to break up a pride parade but lol they made rainbows!! A victory for The Gays, what do you mean state-sanctioned violence and police brutality? It’s symbolic!
