“Kids are too young to learn about that stuff/ it might make them feel bad!”
My earliest memory is being told by a cop that “your kind aren’t welcome here” when my mom tried to take us to a playground. I was seven when someone called me a kike for the first time. The boy I had a crush on found out, told me he would never think a “Jew-pig” was cute, and then told me that as a “good German” he was going to put me in an oven “where you belong”. I spent all of middle and high school with kids throwing Nazi salutes at me, flicking pennies at me, drawing swastikas on my desk. When people started a rumor that I was blowing random guys in the theater, I was specifically called “Jewish whore”.
If I can deal with all of this from the age of FUCKING FOUR without it letting up for a single fucking week. If black kids can experience being called slurs, assaulted, being afraid for their lives because they know what cops do to them. If disabled kids can spend their days being called crip, spaz, being excluded from the most basic of things because no one, their peers and adults alike, cares to accommodate them. If queer kids can handle being assaulted and mocked every day, being excluded from activities because of their gender.
Then your fucking kid can handle sitting in class for a lesson or two. Learning about all  of the shit that’s been done to us in a way that is so watered down, it doesn’t even begin to cover it. Your kid can spend a day sitting in the auditorium watching “Schindler’s List” and giggling like a little fuck and imitating the Nazi salute while I sit there with the only other Jews in my grade and cry because we know this story and we have for years. Your kids can handle history lessons where they’re told that they could be Schindler. While I and kids like me know that we’re the little girl in the red jacket. Only meaningful for our shock value and pity when we die and nothing more. Only useful as a rhetorical device to inspire sympathy and tell other kids that they CAN do good, all while ignoring the fact that marginalized kids are fucking tortured at school by other kids, their teachers, and the fucking administration.
If you can’t handle your precious little baby having to learn about the Holocaust, or slavery, or racism, or the maltreatment of disabled people, or the AIDs crisis, for one day in an easy-to-swallow teaspoon of only slightly bitter medicine. Imagine being one of us.

Tiny little heads up!
I'll be heading out on a trip tomorrow that will last a few days and will probably be absent from the blog during that short time! I'll try and go through and answer my few asks before I go! I'm silly and wanna doodle stuff for them instead of just answering with text which would be easier but man that's less fun fjsjdjd
Side note!! I hit 1500 followers already after hitting 1000 not too long ago?? Dang! It's been a wild time interacting with all the welcome home peeps! And though I can't promise this will be my fixation forever, I can say that the joy I get from this fandom is just indescribable. Just. Idk. Drawing the puppets makes me happy. And it makes me happy that yall like my stuff!!!
Anyway!!! You'll hopefully see my silly answered asks and then I'll be gone for a few days!!! See yall then!!!

Thinking about how Izzy Hands is the part of Blackbeard that allows Stede to fall in love with Edward and having brainrot about it.
I mean. Stede finds the concept of 'Blackbeard' fascinating. He's one of Stedes 'example pirates' in that scene for Frenchie. No doubt Stede read stories of the man while still with Mary and the kids. But Stede also falls in love with the softness of Edward. Edward is Blackbeard and undeniably cool, but it's the softness of Edward, the fact that he likes fine fabrics, the fact that he doesn't kill, the fact that he is an illusionist at heart that makes Stede fit with him.
And then there's Izzy Hands. Izzy Hands who is the Hands of Blackbeard. Stede walks from a bathtub confession with Edward about how Edward can't kill, into the sword of Izzy who has been killing for Ed for years. Izzy whos hardness, whos practicality, grounds the illusionist that is Edward enough for them to work as the coherent unit that is Blackbeard.
Stede can fall in love with Edward because the parts of Blackbeard that would be unlovable don't belong to Ed. They belong to Izzy.

quite literally in the dirt road sobbing right now
Baby hummingbird came up to my bright pink shirt so close I could feel the little wind generated by his wingbeats
The baby flew around and came to look at my phone and thats when I saw all his baby dark feathers
I looked in his eyes and he looked in mine and he went on his way and I immediately began crying

the more I look up Henry Cavill the more confused I am. What do you mean he's not technically english. What the fuck is jersey. What do you mean he was almost edward cullen. What do you mean he was in Stardust (2007) and no one recognized him. How the fuck do you lose a role to Liam Hemsworth?? How do you lose both your biggest roles in like a week anyway? What was that ugly ass haircut in argylle. What do you mean he dated a 19 yr old at like 32. Whats wrong with this guy.

a huge portion of her posts are "god i HATE bisexual/white/whatever women! i'm 100% serious, literally all of them are racist homophobes! they all fucking suck and shouldn't call themselves feminists!"
so most of these accused group just think "oh ok she's venting, i'll leave her be". a few people commenting "hey, isn't this a little harsh?" guilty people groveling "i'm s-so sorry for beimg evil... i try so hard to be an ally and stand up for youu.. i prommy i'm one of the good ones..." and then insane people saying actually homophobic racist shit.
so she screenshots all the insane people's responses to be like. "see? i was actually just venting and i dont actually hate them. but look at these screenshots. see why it's justified for me to hate literally all of them? i didn't even actually think they all suck but they're proving me right because literally all of them are the worst."

Whinging about my extremely subjective dissatisfaction with the Constantine in the Sandman show. Like. Super subjective and I know that, but rambling into the abyss is how I get things out of my head so there can be more room in there.
Anyway yeah, permission to scroll past and ignore me lol.
Johanna Constantine doesn't even have a trench coat (or blond hair). I was trying so hard not to be Super Gay for John Constantine about my dislike for Johanna, but that fucking pea jacket. No. I refuse. She's okay - the actress is good and I'm not salty enough to say otherwise - but Johanna's not Constantine and I'm not happy about it.
Everything else in this show (Sandman) is so fucking cool too. I'm just pissy because I'm too gay for John and not gay enough for Johanna (look I'm a demiboy and anyone I like is basically someone I'm gay for to me).
God the pea jacket. It's not actually a pea jacket, tho. It's worse in my heart. Why couldn't she be Constantine in the trench coat? Why she gotta be, what?, stylish? Fuck off, give me the rumpled button up and loose tie and stupid trench coat.
I don't need her to be John, per se. But the lack of trench coat is salt in the wound of the. The. The not being John.
I just want that stupid trench coat I think. I'm emotionally attached to it.
Keanu Constantine pleases me more than Johanna. At least he had that silly black trench coat. *huffs*
