The Point Of Ladybug Being Immune To Sublimation’s Power Isn’t That She Is The Best Person She Can

“No one wants to look at art of OCs” I don’t think that’s true at all…I follow people specifically to see their OCs literally all the time. Bring back being curious about people’s OCs, asking questions about them and hyping them up like we did when we were teens

This is absolutely 100% valid and it does help me see how they write Sublime differently, that maybe they are trying to imply that any actual flaws are purposefully hidden by her to make sure she appears better (again, her having fear or struggles is not an actual flaw). If they're truly going for this angle, like I said I would love to see her do more with her, so it would be great if she eventually reveals to Marinette (or anyone, but probably Marinette) some true character flaw, rather than just that she struggles with her disability (again, not a flaw, it's a very real, human characteristic that no one should be ashamed of).

Thank you for sharing your experience. It absolutely did not come off as rude, so don't worry! I myself am just sick of disabled people being treated as sources of inspiration (and only worth anything IF they're "inspirational"), and I felt they were doing that with Sublime, but perhaps they are actually subverting that and I took it too literally. Thank you for pointing that out! I will definitely see her from a different angle next time.

And yeah I pointed out in another post I LOVED that she joked about her disability! I also deal with my disability with humor!

Thoughts on Sublimation - Sublime

Okay, first of all, girl needs a real ass name not just "Sublime" please tell me that's a nickname.

But also omg so pretty with her hair like this okay.

But real thoughts now. I don't like how Mary Sue she is. Don't get me wrong, I do really like her so far, but she's just... TOO likeable. She has no character flaws. To me, it's coming off like the writers thought "disabled" and "traumatized" counted as character flaws which is frankly insulting.

I'm hoping I'm wrong here and they're gonna reveal more about her that will add some more interest and flaws, but, seriously, her being disabled is NOT a flaw, and there's no need to make her perfect to "make up" for her disability. It gives me disability inspiration obsession vibes, which is icky. Disabled people do NOT have to "overcome" their disability and be AMAZING people just to be worth your attention.

Again, I hope I'm wrong, the show has dealt with disability better before, but I truly just hope they add some spice beyond *trauma*, which is also not a character flaw.

I AM excited to see what they do with her!

Okay but these shows that deal with "adult" topics absolutely ARE for children! While there might be a couple things that they might not fully comprehend, they absolutely teach them SUPER important lessons! I watched ATLA as a child and learned a lot about morality and deep emotional conflicts! Miraculous showing a panic attack can absolutely show children that either they are not alone (I've had panic attacks since I was pretty young) or teach them empathy for people who struggle with that. What do you MEAN children aren't supposed to be exposed to those realities that will help them grow and develop into emotionally healthy adults?? THAT'S THE POINT. DID YOU NOT WATCH MR. RODGERS!?

annoyed by the "it was never a kids show" crowd bc the comment implies that kids don't deserve complex media. then they'll name things that happened in the show and be like "it was never for kids..." like yeah actually atla was liked by children and was child appropriate even with the topics covered. actually mlb is still liked by children despite marinette having a panic attack in s4 (genuine comment i read???). you can say "i like a show targeted towards children" and "the show isn't only for kids" without saying that somehow the show is too inappropriate for children to justify your like of it

What generation of Pokémon is this?

doing anything with technology these days is an unending cycle of going no i do not want to use AI. im not interested in setting up copilot. I do not want help building my site. I would like my autocorrect to make sense again. I do not want AI generated search suggestions. no. nope. still not. die

Hey. Minors following me. Internet safety is key!! NEVER include these in your bio/byf:

Medical diagnoses - this is nobody's business but yours. You don't owe anyone an explanation for why you are the way that you are

Trauma - same reason as above

Triggers - people can use these against you! Don't give people tools to hurt you. No one has to know what tags you block. Just block tags to stay safe!

Age - age is okay for adults to include but is iffy when you're a teen. Predators want this information, don't give people more than they need. Just state that you're a minor, that's all that anyone needs to know.

In general: stay safe. If you're not comfortable with every stranger out there having access to this information, you shouldn't post it on the internet.

Play devil's advocate and ask yourself about what would happen if someone searched for your information with intent to hurt you. You do NOT owe anyone an explanation!
