Bobby Benson and his baby band. Idk why, but something about that shady guy and his band of goofy babies is so funny to me

If you had to pick a favorite mainseries muppet excluding the main characters, who would it be? They can be from the variety show, a movie, an old Henson skit, whatever. Like- mine would very obviously be Baskerville. As an example. I’m curious!

Boober Fraggle says free Palestine!

On February 7, 2024, an indigenous nonbinary teenager named Nex Benedict was beaten to death in a US high school bathroom.

The news has been spreading across social media over the past few days, with several news outlets misgendering and deadnaming the victim. I have seen a small handful of posts about the entire thing, but only a couple with any sources about what happened.

I spent the morning combing through articles. This is a list of publications reporting on the story that don't deadname Nex:

Pgh Lesbian Correspondents: "Grieving Nex Benedict: the Brutal Killing of 16 Year Old Nonbinary Student in an Oklahoma High School"

The Pride: "Non-Binary Student Dies After Violent Bathroom Fight at Owasso High School in Oklahoma"

The Washington Blade: "Nonbinary Okla. High School Student Dies After Fight"

The Los Angeles Blade: "Oklahoma Non-Binary High Schooler Dies After Physical Alteraction"

LGBTQ Nation: "Teen Beaten to Death in a School Bathroom Bullying Attack. The School Didn't Call an Ambulance."

Freedom Oklahoma: "Rest in Power Nex Benedict"

Indy 100: "Thousands Raised for Non-Binary Teenager Beaten to Death at School"

The Independent: "Oklahoma Banned Trans Students From Bathrooms. Now a Bullied Student is Dead After a Fight."

Daily Dot: "Oklahoma's Top Education Official Called Out Over Libs of TikTok Ties After Non-Binary Student Beaten at School, Dies Later"

Daily Kos: "Libs of TikTok Targeted a District, Then a Non-Binary Student Was Killed on Campus"

Malang Post: "Owasso High School Mourns Pupil's Death After Altercation"

I don't like the redesign either, but after I heard the producers explain why I kind of understand it? Mokey was always meant to be older than her friends, and you can see that through her design. She's much bigger, she has live hands, softer eyes, a grandma style cardigan, and more muted colors. When they pitched a reboot, Apple TV thought that Mokey looked a little too old (i disagree, but whatever). They wanted her to feel less like the other characters' mom and more childlike. That's why they turned up the saturation, changed her hair, gave her rod arms, and a new costume (I actually do really like her necklace with all the little trinkets on it I think that's cute)

Once again, I much prefer the original Mokey. She's soft and sweet, and I just want to give her a hug. I understand why they had to give her a redesign, I just wish it wasn't so dramatic of a change. She doesn't really look like Mokey anymore and that's sad.

I still love the new show. I think it's really amazing and it keeps the spirit of the original show. I'm excited for season 2.

Okay I’m going to bitch about the Fraggle Rock reboot and how much I hate the way the redesigned Mokey

DISCLAIMER: if you like or even live the reboot, that’s so so valid and I love that for you. I’m not here to tell you what and what not to enjoy. Love what you love. Live your best life

That being said

and can’t stand the reboot’s redesign of Mokey. Now, I haven’t seen the reboot, and I don’t plan too. But there’s just one thing that makes me fucking furious, and that’s Mokey’s redesign.

I hate it.

“But Zeke, “hate” is a strong word, you can’t find it that bad can you?”

I can and I will. as far as I’m concerned, that isn’t Mokey. Mokey would NEVER look like that. NEVER.

this redesign doesn’t even look like her! If I didn’t know better I’d think it was a completely different character! They took everything I loved about Mokey and ruined it

The colors are the most egregious to me. They took Mokey’s soft pastel colors and cranked up the saturation. And they don’t even look good together, they aren’t even appealing.

and like. She doesn’t even fit in with her friends anymore, she sticks out like a sore thumb. OG Mokey fit right in, but Reboot Mokey just doesn’t. She feels like she’s from a different show.

AND NO ONE ELSE GOT REDESIGNED, SO WHY DID MOKEY??? HER DESIGN WAS JUST FINE

secondly they gave her a dress and that makes me want to maim someone. I LIKED HER WIZARD CARDIGAN. SHE LOOKED NONBINARY AND AS A NONBINARY PERSON I LIKED THAT A LOT. It’s like they gave her a dress to say “look she’s a girl. Because girls wear dresses. And so she has to wear one”. I know Nonbinary people can wear dresses but it just feels weird to me as a nonbinary person who relates a lot to Mokey and gets dysphoria from dresses.

also they took away the stoned wizard vibe of the og and made her look like a TikTok white girl and I HATE IT. Mokey is a stoner wizard, not a TikTok girl.

and if you look at the redesign you would never in a million years guess what her personality was supposed to be. She looks like a peppy cottagecore type, not her actual dreamy artist with an egotistical streak. And that’s bad character design imo. You can tell everyone’s personality by looking at them EXCEPT FOR HER. OG Mokey looked like she would be dreamy and artistic, and she IS.

All in all they took away every design element that made Mokey,, Mokey and it makes me so fucking mad so I have done what I must and said “the reboot isn’t Fraggle Rock. It isn’t part of the series I love. It’s its own thing, NOT Fraggle Rock” because im not letting it get in the way of enjoying Fraggle Rock.

(Deep breath) it’s not very good. I don’t like it

Thanks for reading my unhinged rant 👍

Do I want Crowley and Aziraphale to have a proper, loving, relaxed kiss in season three? Yes. Of course. Obviously.

But what I want even more is for them to hug. I just feel like a lot of problems can be solved with a nice lovely warm hug.

this is really hard to read, but it's true. Disney has sucked the soul out of the muppets. the performers have been trying to put it back, but every time they do they are thwarted by this stupid fucking corporation. fuck you disney

this makes me want to throw up and cry and scream and punch a wall

THE SILLY

wake up babe, isabelle decided to make another one of these

Happy New Year

All Miss Piggy haters need to

1. Cope with the fact that they will always be wrong

2. Watch The Great Muppet Caper eight thousand times or until they change their minds. She is THE best part of that movie.

And every movie. Even the ones she isn’t in

The Scottish Tragedy But Muppets:

is this funny

Thoughts about the Doctor Who Christmas special:

This episode was SO FUN. It was sweet, funny, but above all, this shit was GOOFY. I think doctor who is at its best when it doesn't take itself too seriously. This episode had goblins in a big pirate ship and the Doctor doing a musical number. It was so silly and I loved it. The Doctor is finally allowed to have fun and serve cunt, as God intended. Ncuti is so cool and is already becoming my new favorite doctor. Ruby is super cute and spunky. I can't wait to see more of both of them.

My fellow meeses, it’s come to my attention that we have no cheeses

500 Muppets: There goes Mr Asshole! There Goes Mr Bitch!

" I know it's easier to portray a world filled with cynicism and anger, where problems are solved with violence...It's an easy out. What's a whole lot tougher is to offer alternatives, to present other ways conflicts can be resolved, and to show you can have a positive impact on your world. To do that, you have to put yourself out on a limb, take chances, and run the risk of being called a do-gooder." Jim Henson

hello wontkins. in front of you is a cup of wilkins coffee. all you must do if you want to survive, is drink the coffee and say you like it. if not... i will kill you in every way imaginable over and over again. the choice is yours wontkins. live or die.

“ What I’m against is people’s thinking puppets are exclusively for children. We’ve directed our work mostly towards adults, and historically puppets have often been for adults. It’s only fairly recently that puppets have been pushed into strictly children’s areas. As a theater form, puppetry can do virtually anything.”

—Jim Henson

"why can't he be mine" i say looking at a character with 8 minutes of screentime

Yes girl, they are muppets. All jim henson creations that are in this style are called muppets.

I made this late one night after my roommate asked me what a muppet good omens crossover would look like. It still makes me laugh.

I thought this trend was funny
