I understand peoples opinions and thoughts on Steven universe, but at the same time I’m like how can you hate that show? Do you know how much it did for young queer kids trying to figure themselves out? Do you know how great it was for pushing past queer stereotypes in television?
im havin a Thought-
so many of the top mobile games right now are centered around widely stigmatized jobs. number twenty five on the free games list, for instance, is a cashier simulator. homescapes has been on the board for weeks. but cashiers and yard workers/gardeners are considered “unskilled labor.”
so somehow it seems wrong that people are saying things like “well if you’re really that stupid then go be a cashier at mcdonalds” and then turning around and playing cashier simulator and the people making it are profiting off of that, with things like microtransactions and popup ads.
really is no ethical consumption under capitalism, is there?
Head empty, just thinking of that yes, Mitsuri is the first woman Obanai learns to love, but consider this; Shinobu being the first woman he respects.
Imagine Obanai still not a Hashira yet, going on a group mission with Shinobu leading and he's like "God how come she became a Hashira when she can't even behead a demon most girls in the corps are weak and they don't take this whole things seriously smh"
Then the demon comes and Shinobu only stabs him once and the effect is tremendous, leaving what was once a strong demon to be a writhing, agonizing creature choking for air as his skin turns dull and the scent of wisteria poison lingers in the air, almost like some kind of warning to other nearby demons.
And the unbothered look on her face? The absolute no hesitation??
Good leadership + able to remain composed + smart and strategic + doesn't let her weakness define her capabilities = worthy of respect.
Mitsuri is Obanai's first love, and Shinobu is his first lady friend that he actually genuinely respects and likes.
(bonus that Obanai would trash talk about Giyuu with Shinobu and she constantly shuts him up cause she wants to befriend Giyuu and Obanai has no freaking clue why and what she sees in him. Judging friend but with concern intent).
