Me: So yeah, casual english has completely changed since then. Nowadays instead of 'There was a crying baby on the bus today' you would say 'Me when I'm in a being loud and annoying competition and my opponent is crying baby on bus.' And then you'd post this picture of Squidward. Oh, uh, Squidward is a guy from a cartoon-"

Reanimated Corpse of John Wilkes Booth: *Has been staring angrily at a penny for the last 15 minutes and not listened to a word I've said*

i hope the trend continues and olivia continues to get more and more punk and sometimes in 2050 i'm listening to her write songs about setting cop cars on fire and framing her ex boyfriends

I wish that instead of that Claire could have convinced him to sit down and talk. Claire taking him places, Claire finding solutions to his powers. That wholesome family bonding Klaus didn’t always get from his siblings. There were so many places this season could have just gone right honestly if the show runners just chose to look.

Klaus selling his body for drugs all over again was bad enough but then someone in that writers room decided to amp up the already fucked up situation to 100 by making Klaus to be sex trafficked and being forced to use his powers to let ghosts violate and use his body to have sex with the living so he could earn money to pay his debts to Quinn, which we all know he would never be able to do and he would be explored forever had he not escaped...And then it's played for laughs. Someone decided that putting Klaus through another extremely traumatic situation would be funny because he's always going on his own little adventures and getting himself in trouble, right? Someone in there thought "Oh that's so natural of him, that him going through something like this is just in character so it's funny, he will take this fucked up situation in a silly funny manner, right? Because it's Klaus Hargreeves we are talking about! And for some reason this will have no repercussions for his already poor mental health at all!" and they CAN FUCK RIGHT OFF!

I just want to talk to whoever wrote that shit. In a ✨️amicable✨️ way of course. As one does :)

“Animation is just for kids!”

…Ok…Ok…Let’s take a look at some of that animation that’s “Just for kids,” shall we?

Adventure Time is a series that touches a lot on philosophical questions and theories, with one episode having one character ask “If just being born is the greatest act of creation then what are you supposed to do after that?”

Avatar: The Last Airbender dives deep into having characters question what is right and wrong when dealing with a horrible evil. Like, is it better to harm anybody, even the most innocent old man, just because their society is run by fascists? Should we torture those who tortured us? And should we really kill someone just because they are irredeemable? All hard questions, each with uneasy answers.

The Owl House has a powerful antagonist whose goal is to commit genocide on an entire race of innocent people due to being raced to believe that said people are evil, thus stating that the most dangerous people are the ones who are prejudiced and ignorant.

Centaurworld  has a scene where a man tries to drown an elk. No, I’m not kidding. That happened. It was on screen and everything.

Encanto teaches a lesson on generational trauma, the pressures of living up to expectations, and stating that the best gift is being alive and having those around you.

And do I even have to say ANYTHING about Pixar?! The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Up, Inside Out, Soul, and even Toy Story all have themes and morals that can speak to adults while also being simple enough for kids to understand.

But that’s just animation for kids. Let’s talk about animation for ADULTS, shall we?

South Park takes a comedic view of our society, poking fun in the many ways it’s broken.

The Breadwinner is a tense movie of a young, Afghan girl disguising herself as a boy so she can go out and make money so her family can survive.

Invincible has some of the most brutal scenes I’ve seen from a superhero series, including this moment with a train (you’ll know it when you see it) that was so horrific that, when it cut to black for a second, I saw the look of pure shock and terror of my face reflected onto my laptop.

And Bojack Horseman is the best adult-animated series I’ve ever seen because it tackles issues made for adults. Things like opium addiction, depression, the struggles of being asexual in a sex-driven world, and telling one truth that most adults need to hear. The truth that, in this life, you can’t live happily ever after. You’re alive, always have another problem to deal with, and then you’re dead. There’s no point, in this plane of existence, when you’re happy forever and ever. Because life’s a show, and when everybody’s happy, then there can’t be a show anymore.

Animation. Is not. For kids.

Animation is a medium that is often geared towards kids. And the reason why people keep saying it’s for kids is because they focus on the kids stuff and refuse to look at how mature some animated movies and shows can be.

While protesting the Israel-Palestine war, please remember that Israelis≠IDF. And please remember that true Zionism is not wanting to erase Palestine. It is simply wishing for us Jews to have a place of our own.

And please remember that Israelis exist when you say “from the river to the sea.”

There is so much animosity between Israelis and Palestinians. Israelis would not be treated well under Palestine, meaning a two-state solution would be the best. Hamas and IDF are manipulating all of us. Please, be on the side of the innocent Israelis and Palestinians.
