That Boyfriends Webtoon Just Encapsulates So Much I Hate About A Lot Of Modern Lgbt Media. It’s Like

That boyfriends webtoon just encapsulates so much I hate about a lot of modern lgbt media. It’s like the corporate non threatening art style for tumblr queers. Super sanitized and watered down representations of convenient gay tropes presented in a cutesy pastel infantilizing manner.

Not to say cute fun gay media is bad, it can be done very well! This kind of art is just so soulless. It literally feels like a pandering cash grab and the smol-otaku-potato urls are eating it all up without a second thought. It’s not a story, it’s a coffee shop au filled with shipping possibilities of omg do you like goth x prep or jock x nerd or etc. The characters literally don’t have names, it’s all about their tropes.

There’s so much of a focus on OMG ITS GAY AND CUTE XD there isn’t at all a thought of Hey? Is this actually a good story? What message is this telling? And no amount of Well the creator is a gay trans man!! can change a shit pandering story.

This is all just about the comic objectively (and a critique of similar media tbh) but there’s a ton of way more important things like the creator saying the n word. And also being a freak drawing p*rn of BTS. The artist writes gay men like a baby’s first yaoi comic and yet these people can’t seem to see how fetishistic it is lol

the problem with autism is sometimes you want to do something (brave) but you need someone to gently walk you through each step so you know what will happen. and people don’t like doing that

Just saw this and oh my god. It makes me love Leshy more

This worm is autistic and there is nothing you can do about it.

This Worm Is Autistic And There Is Nothing You Can Do About It.

I keep seeing this headcanon floating around, and I really am inclined to agree. Whether intentional or not, Leshy is quite possibly the single most autistic-coded character in Cult of the Lamb. Evidence:

He has a visible motor tic in-game with the little head twitch thing that he does.

The volume of his voice is inconsistent, alternating between average and LOUD.

When first encountering a would-be sacrifice in Darkwood, the swordsman says that Leshy is "hungry." This is noteworthy because Gods don't seemingly need to eat, implying sensory-seeking behavior on his part.

As further evidence of sensory-seeking, in the short that the above screenshot comes from, when given a flower, he eats it. Enthusiastically.

In this same short, he's cooking just fine until he becomes enamored with a butterfly, a moving object, fluttering by his head.

They had him working a grill. It's practically spelled out at this point.

June is already over and I’ve seen people bash on lesbians or straight out take them out of the lgbtq+ multiple times. Google took it out of their pride picture. They had it in their drafts but took it out even though there was space for it. A bit of a lesser one but still important in some eyes, how some people changed the lyrics for a Girl in Red song about making it straight or a mlm anthem which to me is really annoying. Lesbians seemingly get nothing or get forgotten.

It’s an official Pokémon merchandise. It’s only in Japan and it was with the fairytale collection. It was a little expensive but was worth it!

I finally got it. I’m at peace

people on that last post are talking about how "the twist with GLaDOS being evil is kinda obvious, it's such a cliché for the AI to be evil, blah blah blah" and i'm convinced they never played Portal without already knowing the twist.

to the unknowing player, GLaDOS is not an AI. GLaDOS is a voice delivering prerecorded messages. she doesn't even have a name until the very end (and i can't quite remember but i think it's just written somewhere, never spoken); she's just "the announcer lady" or whatever else the player thinks to call her, if they even recognize her as an entity (i sure didn't). her transformation from automated voice who delivers sometimes-silly information about test chambers to malicious intelligence hunting you down is handled MASTERFULLY and anyone who says the twist of Portal was obvious needs to immediately boot up Portal and play the entire game right now.
