Amity and Luz mentioned they are girlfriends FOUR times in a 20 minute episode. That's an average of once every FIVE MINUTES.

If that's not accurate representation of getting your first girlfriend, I don't know what is.

One thing will always be universally true:

It doesn’t matter how old you are...

It doesn’t matter if you’re human, or a witch...

It doesn’t matter if you have diametrically opposing political beliefs to the point you are no longer speaking...

It doesn’t matter if you’re actually trying to save her, and pay penance for cursing her in a deluded attempt to join a tyrant who lied to you, colonized your world, and stripped all its people of their true power.

If your sister sticks her tongue out at you...

You do it right back.

Those are the rules.

#i love these ladies #also i gave my sister the biggest hug after i watched #she was super confused and i was just like #'shhh. let me love you" #this better get a second season #why does this keep disappearing from the tags? lol #the owl house spoilers #the owl house #eda the owl lady #the owl lady #edalyn clawthorne #lilith clawthorne #toh #toh eda #sisters

@dykeanthropy​ @luckygardenfrog​ @claycaduceus​ @nomadofcampcamp​ @virgosetokaiba

1. Again, are any of you black?

2. Even if you are black, and were offended by Noelle’s statements, why is your  opinion about how it affected you more important than mine when I say I think it was blown out of proportion?

3. AT NO POINT do I “gloss over” the panel’s racist remarks. I FULLY acknowledge the comment was ignorant, and that the whole crew needs to do better. AT NO POINT do I defend what Noelle said in regards to any of the grievances people had, except for the ones that LITERALLY DIDN’T HAPPEN!

4. I said I want MY voice heard. MINE!!!! And that I am only speaking for MYSELF! And I want my voice to be heard because I am TIRED of the pervasive narrative being that every little thing some clueless white person says is just going to destroy me.

5. Yes. We should call out racism, insensitivity, and ignorance ALWAYS. But there is a way to do it. And IN MY OPINION, for this particular controversy was not it.

6. If you cannot understand the difference between someone being ignorant and willing to learn, and someone intentionally being offensive then YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!

7. No one is perfect, and if we cannot allow for imperfections, we WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HAVE ROOM FOR GROWTH. This DOES NOT mean we give people a free pass for offensive statements. It DOES mean that in SOME CASES it is better to help educate allies, than condemn them outright.

8. @nomadofcampcamp​ I’m going to call you out specifically because of something that left me SEETHING with rage. You said “we” cannot talk on this subject because “we” are non-black people. WHO THE FUCK IS WE?!!!! I AM BLACK!!!!!!! And this is yet another example of a non-black person so quick to talk out of their ass about issues that DO NOT PERTAIN TO THEM, speaking over the voices of ACTUAL BLACK PEOPLE! How dare you! 

9. No one, and I mean NO ONE, gets to tell me how I feel about this situation. Not even other black people. You do not get to decide that I have internalized racism just because I have a different opinion. You do not get to assume I don't know and understand the history of characters like “Sambo”, and why what she said is problematic. You get to voice how it made you feel, and everything YOU say is valid, and worthy of being heard and digested. I STRONGLY encourage people to read MANY posts about this subject from MULTIPLE black bloggers because we ARE NOT ONE PERSON, and are going to have different opinions and perspectives. All of which are necessary to even BEGIN to BARELY understand the intricacies of a very complicated issue.

10. If you are not black, please, I beg of you, do not speak on this issue anymore. Period. This is simply not about you. I know this is a very difficult concept for non-black people to grasp, but you do not get a say here. IN ANY WAY. And you DEFINITELY do not get a say over an actual black person. I don’t care if you think you are educating someone who doesn’t “understand why this was racist”. The fact that ANY OF YOU think you can teach a black person about being black, just.... holy shit the rage.

Everyone will feel how they want to about what was said. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and how they choose to interact with She-Ra and its crew from here on out. I am not going to let this tarnish my view of the show, or the FLAWED BUT TRYING people who created it. I would rather stay engaged with creators who NEED TO DO BETTER, and can only do so by hearing actual black voices. I intend to be one of those voices. 

And that’s all I am. Just a single voice. But I am a voice that will not be silenced. Period. 

I AM INFURIATED!!!!

But not for the reasons you think.

How many of you watched the She-Ra panel tonight? ACTUALLY WATCHED IT?! Because I did and here’s what I saw:

1. “_____ called someone the D slur”

He DID NOT call anyone that word. He used it in the context of announcing a panelist to the show. The word is IN THE TITLE of her podcast. He was literally just stating the title. That’s it.

2. “Noelle said Double Trouble would be creepy around kids.”

What Noelle said was that to get the inspiration for Flutterina, Double Trouble would have gone to a coffee shop, found a girl to imitate, and stare at her until they got her mannerisms down. Because of the implications here irt trans people and the stereotypes of “creeping on children”, this could have been worded better. BUT this whole headcanon was in response to Noelle DEFENDING Double Trouble against the rest of the crew thinking they straight up murdered the real Flutterina. And again, problematic because of larger implications, but on the show Double Trouble IS A VILLAIN. Just because we think they’re awesome doesn’t mean they’re not capable of shady shit. I saw very few people having a problem with this before. Other things they said about DT?

They specifically searched for a non-binary trans activist to voice the role.

Double Trouble was the whole cast’s favorite character.

Everyone had a crush on them.

They support DT x Peekablue headcanon and think they should date.

3. “Noelle said Entrapta and Hordak are great representation.”

Literally just did not say this. This comment was made by a fan writing in. Noelle didn’t agree or disagree at all. She goes on to give a character analysis about them both, and that’s it.

4. “They made Bow’s brothers slaves.”

No. They didn’t. It’s a crew inside joke that all of Bow’s brother’s have pun names that rhyme with “Bow”. The brother in question came from one of the other male creators making the joke “which one of Bow’s brothers tills the field? Sow.” Here’s a pic from Noelle about the rest of the brothers.

Because of the complicated history between black people and “farm work” it’s best to not make any joke at all like this. It was tasteless and misguided, but hardly a reason to grab pitchforks. Black people have the phrase “whites gonna white” for a REASON. We know there’s no such thing as an unproblematic person. Creator or otherwise. Is it still wrong? Yes. Should people strive to do and be better? Absolutely. Should allies listen when POC talk about things that make us uncomfortable, and support us when WE call it out? Please, for the love of God!!! But I do not think the level of backlash the crew-ra is getting is at all warranted.

I understand I do not speak for all black people or lesbians, and I don’t speak for ANY of those other groups mentioned and possibly offended, because I am not one of them. However, I felt the need to speak for myself. I am SO SICK of everyone knee-jerk reacting to every little thing that could possibly offend someone. Noelle is not perfect, but she has done a SHIT TON of work for representation and the progression of normalizing queer, inclusive stories to younger audiences. She also went to bat for a diverse cast of characters to be voiced by a diverse cast of VA.

The truly fucked up thing? There was a question someone wrote in about how a cis, straight, white person can respectfully tell the stories of underrepresented and marginalized communities. Noelle then goes on for 5 minutes about how it’s difficult, and how it’s more important to hold doors open for creators who actually come from those communities to be able to have their own voices heard. And this is the woman you throw flames at? Ridiculous. Our true enemies are able to so easily conquer us, because we so easily divide ourselves.

No one owes allegiance to any one fandom or creator. But we have got to start picking our battles more carefully. If we don’t, people will become desensitized to our cries when REAL threats and offenses happen. And white people? PLEASE stop being so outraged at every little “off-color” remark someone makes YOU think might offend ME. I appreciate you wanting to be an ally, but you are drowning out our voices over things that really matter. That’s why we get shit like musicians and sports teams changing their “racially insensitive” names, while police are STILL killing unarmed black peple in the streets without repercussions. It shouldn’t be an either/or thing, but it often is, so please focus your attention on “canceling” THAT.

TL;DR: Don’t just retweet and reblog everything you see without doing your own research and forming your own opinion. Speak out against bigotry, but understand when it’s time attack, and when it’s time to educate. Stop holding people on so high a pedestal they have no room to grow, and can only fall. Do not speak for, or louder, than the people you say you are standing up for. We can speak for ourselves. Help amplify our voices; DO NOT BECOME OUR VOICES. And finally, because we really do just have so much bigger fish to fry:

#I can no longer be involved in this discussion #what started out as me trying to correct misinformation I saw being spread has turned into the trash fire you see before you #at this point this whole thing is way more triggering and disappointing than anything Noelle said #black people I hope you understand what I am saying #and the sad part is I feel you do #most of the feedback I've gotten from actual black bloggers has been positive #or has engaged me in a much more respectful manner #that's what really gets me #MY people have handled this with grace #the rest of you... I have no more words #she-ra #she ra #spop #she ra panel #racism

“The One Where Catradora and Korrasami meet at Pride!”

Having recently confessed their feelings for one another, Adora and Catra decide to take their relationship public by attending their local Pride for the first time. In true Baby Gay fashion, they arrive at the parade excited and hopeful, but quickly realize they don’t know how to navigate this new world that has just opened up to them. Adora notices one particularly attractive couple that looks to be just a bit older than them. She introduces herself, mumbling and blushing the whole time. Korra, recognizing the awkward nervousness of someone going through Stage One Lesbianism, decides to take Adorra under her wing. She and her fiancé Asami offer to show the girls around, and they eagerly accept.

Bonus:

My new favorite activity is going deep in the She Ra fandom archives, and looking at posts that doubt Catradora canon from antis and shippers alike, and just being like...

#its so fucking validating #NONE of us thought they would kiss fr fr #but they did!!!! #what a ride #spop #she ra #catradora
