I'm A Recursive Gnostic. I Believe There Is No God, Just An Infinite Chain Of Demiurges Stretching Out

are you a community fan who's urgently waiting for the movie and have a BIGASS HANKERING for content/?? and are also kind of maybe a little dumb but not like in a bad way you just saw some of these online and didn't think to look for more??

I saw someone post a couple gifs from the study break mini-episodes WHICH APPARENTLY ARE A THING?? I looked them up, and found this playlist of all the stuff not in the series.

I can't believe I've been missing out on clips that aren't in the show for YEARS, consider this a non-denominational winter gift from me

Sometimes I'm just going about my day and then remember Helluva Boss exists.

It's so unique and refreshing after decades of Family Guy and Rick and Morty and the rest of those adult shows that use their status to play their adult jokes like they're still something taboo, like they're sneaking candy.

"Ooh, ooh we're not supposed to do this! Can you believe we're doing it??" They're proud of all their characters being rude narcissists who hate everyone, including their friends, kids, and partners. They're so excited to portray people who are are stagnant in their negative characteristics and have shows where the brightest things about them is their colors. They make light of mature concepts. The art styles are all bland and intended to be cranked out as fast as possible. Inexpressive and mass-produced. Jokes are lazy and bigoted and immature at best. No thought or effort is put in whatsoever.

Meanwhile Helluva Boss is on the other end of the spectrum. "Yeah, we're doing this, that's why we're here. If you're not going to at least try to engage you're gonna get bored." They're proud of showing multiple types of relationships and the varying aspects of them, especially when so many of those are positive, working towards being positive, or experiencing the consequences of characters' actions that might hurt them instead. They're excited to show the depth to these characters and how they affect each other and how brightness is not only something they can show visually but portray in the world too, even in a setting like hell. They occasionally make light of mature concepts, but only when they aren't the focus and have no bearing on the overall episode or character. Otherwise, heavy topics are respected and communicated with the expectation that the audience will treat them accordingly. The art style is expressive and takes time to animate - time and effort is put in. They give the middle finger to bigots and make the entire cast some form of character that would be ridiculed by others. There is an incredible amount of effort and thought put in to this project.

We have an adult animated show that unapologetically and enthusiastically shows queer people and queer relationships without implying that they're inherently bad, shows people who feel like outcasts or experience difficulties with life and are dealing with those, shows difficult and negative people who are developing and growing in real time. It expects its viewers to act like adults and doesn't try to take itself too seriously or too flippantly.

It's an exceptional relief that this show exists, I'm so excited to see it continue.

“Everybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people of the world, I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside, inside them they’ve all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds. Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybe.”

— Neil Gaiman

Not to talk about anything related to a certain hbo reboot show, but if you want to watch an edgy Scooby Doo parody where they mention murder and drugs, Fred is an asshole, Velma is queer, and Scooby isn't in it, I suggest "The Solve It Squad Returns" from Tin Can Bros

It's free to watch on Youtube, and its an actually funny parody with some good non-comedic moments (plus, one of the actors literally plays all of the side characters, and thats amazing)

i love you obvious symbolism i love you blatant foreshadowing i love you gratuitous parallels i love you dramatic lighting i love you cheesy music. i love you media that doesn't take itself too seriously
