Something I don’t think enough people recognize when it comes to making shows more diverse, there is so much going on behind the scene that you literally can’t “just add them.”

Alex Hirsch had to wait until the end of Gravity Falls to show that Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Durland were in love so that way the show didn’t get prematurely cancelled. And even still, that was censored in other countries.

________

The Owl House has a bisexual afro Latina protagonist that falls in love with a white lesbian. They kiss several times on screen and say “my awesome girlfriend.” It also has Disney’s first nonbinary character (Raine Whispers), their bisexual love interest (Eda Clawthorne), and an aro/ace woman (Lilith Clawthorne). However, because like five people said that TOH wasn’t the “Disney brand” the show is prematurely cancelled. So even with everything that TOH did, it only won battle but lost the war.

________

The art crew for Encanto had to fight to make Luisa buff. And when they were finally able to make her buff, Disney didn’t make as much Luisa merchandise because they thought little girls would want Mirabel or Isabela’s since they’re more “feminine.” (I think the same thing happened with Namaari when RATLD came out but I’m not sure. So don’t quote me on that.)

*Also, Luisa out preformed. So that’s a win.

________

Bubblegum and Marceline couldn’t kiss until the series finale of Adventure Time because it would’ve been cancelled. So throughout the entire series, the crew always just had to imply undertones about their past. Since HBO produced Obsidian, they were able to kiss on screen.

________

Korra and Asami’s relationship had to tempt down so that way Nick could continue airing the show and they weren’t allowed to kiss until the comics.

________

Turning Red got so much unwarranted criticism because not only did Mei’s mom say “pads” but she showed them on screen. (I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, if that made you uncomfortable, that’s a sign that we need to do this more and not less.)

________

Some countries marked She Ra as 18+ because Catra and Adora kissed on screen. (Once again, I’m not sure if this completely true but Nate Stevenson had to fight to actually show them kissing on screen instead of a fade to white.)

________

Steven Universe is the gayest show I’ve ever seen in my life which was both good and bad. It was good for obvious reasons. Example being that it was the first show that introduced to me nonbinary people in a way that wasn’t “haha, look, she uses they/them pronouns. She’s so funny and quirky.”

And it’s bad because it put a target on it’s back. SU has been censored so much that it’s honestly a miracle that we got an ending. And in most of the countries that censored SU, they usually portray Ruby as a man. So I can’t imagine how bad the censors were when the wedding happened and Ruby wore a dress and Sapphire wore a suit.

________

Also, you have to remember the outdated idea that gay/trans topics are “too mature” for kids to handle (there’s an episode of Adam Ruins Everything that talks about this). So it’s easier for shows with an older audience (like Arcane) to have queer/trans rep.

Not to mention, if you ever go on Insider’s website to look at the queer/trans characters in cartoons [here], most of the characters are revealed to be queer only online and not in the actual show.

________

All of this BS because God forbid that kids find out that other people exist.

Representation is important but please, just be aware of the actually struggles that go on that you don’t see and be thankful that this is where we are now because even though it might seem like it at times remember that this is actual progress. We need to keep pushing studios to do more. I’m sure that there’s millions of untold stories that would be made if not for this prejudice.

Machi's #15 DPxDC Idea

Bruce couldn't understand what was happening, or why, or how, or why, or when, or well, anything at all. One day he found two civilians, two teens goofing around the cave like two newlyweds. When Batman, with capital B; tried to interrogate them he only got mockery.

"What's with the long face?" They said before disappearing through one of the smaller caves. For a moment Bruce thought he had hallucinated the Asian boy and the Hispanic girl. Only to find the same Hispanic girl with a blond boy making out on Red Robin's bike. Plus another couple with them! And all of them were holding hands!

Then, a few days later, while he was investigating the lower levels of the batcave he found a black boy with a red beanie flirting with Jason, and Jason was flirting back? Batman had to pull everybody out of the caves and call for an emergency meeting. Only to find a boy with black hair passed out at the meeting table, using Batman's reports as cushions. Sitting next to him was a girl with also dark hair drinking with a straw from a coconut.

"Poor Danny," she said. "After all these years he still can't deal with alcohol." And then she promptly started to offer coconut milk to everyone.

He snapped at her but she only raised an eyebrow and left carrying the boy, Danny, on her back. And then the music started. Day and Night it would start playing at the most random moments. Samba, Rumba, Fados, Boleros, K-pop, anything went in, they even accepted petitions if the kids yelled loud enough. Steph had gotten in the habit of asking for Kill Bill's OST and Dick constantly asked for Taylor Swift. They even answered when Damian complained about their choices and asked for Chopin's nocturne. And then the batcave started to grow flowers! And trees? And the fruit was edible? What the heck?

"Sounds to me like you have a nymph infestation," said Wonder Woman after hearing his rant report. Batman stared at her like she had grown another head.

"I mean, flower powers, free love, did they have pointed ears?" Batman nood. "Yup, definitely a nymph infestation." Batman kept staring at her. Don't look at me like that, they are very common where I come from. The only solution is to wait until they get bored and move on. If you try to get rid of them violently not only you will fail. But also will risk the wrath of the gods." Batman kept staring. Wonder woman sighed. "I will call Pan to see if he is missing any nymphs and wants them back".

#machi's idea #dpxdc #dp x DC #batman #danny Phantom #prompts #Fae Danny #Fae Amity Park #Free love Amity Park #Everybody is into everybody #Sam has plant powers #So they always have food #They keep moving so they don't extenuate the soil and to let it rest #it is called letting a field lie fallow #so the soil can restore their natural nutrient balance #wonder if Luisa in Encanto does the same #bc her powers are useless without soil to grow #not to mention Poison Ivy #to make such a huge plants the soil must suffer a lot #Responsible agriculture #This tags got out of control pretty quickly #summary #Amity Park is weird #there is a massive polycule and they travel the world partying and exploring #and sometimes they do chores for CW #like finding the pools of rancid ectoplasm and cleaning them #wait until they make it to Nanda Parbat #Ras Al Ghoul will have an aneurysm #Dani will have Thalia

"Eyes blinded by the fog cannot see the truth."

#rusty lake #cube escape #elizabeth eilander #fun fact: the texture used for this one is from an old photo plate from the 1800's #something something lore #alyway she's the best girl #I have a lot of feelings for her and her siblings alright ;;#another fun fact: that pose was a struggle and I accidentally drew her absolutely JACKED #think à la Luisa Encanto #If she had that power she'd be unstoppable #lift the house and the animals and yeet it away #last fun fact: it looked like she was having googly eyes on my sketch #the shitpost was so close let me tell you #David would have put googly eyes on it #David would have put googly eyes on everything

Catholic Character Tournament

Rules

No real-life people (No, you can't submit Jesus or the Pope)

Only submit a character once. You can submit as many other characters as you like

Catholic-coded characters are allowed. If your character is not from Earth but they follow a religion that is clearly inspired/based on Catholicism, then it's ok. (ex: Church of Seiros in Fire Emblem Three Houses)

Orthodox Christians in communion with Rome are allowed. (Ex: Copts, Greek Orthodox, etc. Click link to see the list)

Rule Modification: Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Christians(implied or hcs supported by text) are allowed. Click here for details.

If a headcanon can be supported by the text then the character is allowed. (ex: the Familia Madrigal from Encanto). Will accept simple explanations like "Donatello makes a cross"

Former Catholics/Lapse Catholics/non-religious characters are allowed only if being ex-Catholic is important to their characterization or story (themes about religious guilt or trauma).

Characters from religious allegories/texts that were heavily inspired by the creator's catholic faith are allowed (ex: Lord of the Rings and Narnia)

Biblically inspired characters are allowed (ex: Castiel from Supernatural or Aziraphale from Good Omens)

Characters from horror movies are allowed. Demons, however, are not. Unless you want to argue that the Demon is still Catholic, then be my guest.

Propaganda is allowed and encouraged. No holy wars tho, we gotta learn from our mistakes.

Inspired by @indigenous-character-tournament @plural-swag-competition @latine-showdown @italian-tournament @cringefailloser-tournament @mad-scientist-showdown @sun-n-moon-showdown @best-fictional-cat @bestfictionaldivorce @underrated-adversaries and others!!

I'm a huge fan of Encanto and their magic doors, and I wondered...

What gift could fit the Mario Bros and the princesses (imaginary or Canon) ?

... Sorry, it's just- (goes away and slam the door with a mad blush)

Hmm... So many possibilities! 👀😅

For my personal interpretation of Luigi, who's exceptionally perceptive and a formidable listener, I think the ability to hear others' thoughts and/or feel their emotions at will would be a fitting gift for him. Being very respectful and discreet with personal matters, yet also able to speak on those would make him the ideal person to trust with this power, and arguably the most suited one to use it too. 💚💭

I see Peach as being deeply nurturing and having a remarkably soft presence, so I believe that her being able to induce calm and bliss upon others -even when they're sad or upset- would be a very good complement to her healing powers. Her innate desire to alleviate her friends' fears or pain would manifest in the care she can directly provide for them. 🤲✨️

And for my Mario... who deems every moment spent with his loved ones infinitely precious, who often finds himself lost in contemplation and dearly wishes he could always prevent anything bad from happening, I would picture his gift as him being able to slow down time for a brief instant. It would be an increasingly draining power the longer it would be used, and he would sometimes push it at his own risk; but he would do it gladly nonetheless. ⏱️🌅

Random driving into work thought: If you rewrite them a little, in Encanto the songs of the sisters would work better if you switch them

Because Surface Pressure is about being this emotional anchor for the family who takes on all of this burden and responsibility while pretending it’s easy and not slowly wearing them down, and What Else Can I Do is about having who you are be diluted down to a singular trait that others assign you and don’t want you to deviate from so they never see you as a full person and you never get to see yourself as a full person

Now to me, Isabella’s thing is that while technically her gift is growing flowers, her family role is The Perfect One, and as such she has to conform to what other people decide is perfect. And given how Abuela kinda runs that place with an iron fist, perfect would be whatever she wants. That if Isabella is perfect then she only thinks what she’s told she thinks and she only does what she’s told to do and she seems to be this community symbol for why the Madrigal family is great so she has to forever be this symbol and not a person, including marrying someone she’s told to marry even if she doesn’t want to because saying no would be going against what’s best for the family, which would make her not perfect, and everyone else in the family has to work hard and all anyone ever asks of her is to sit around and be perfect so if she suddenly is “selfish” and not perfect, then what is her purpose?

So I feel like for her, it works having a song about how she’s existing only for everyone else and never has any time or space for anything that doesn’t exist to serve other people and she feels like she’s being slowly crushed by the pressure of being everything that everyone else wants of her all the time because there is this amorphous terrible consequence for the family if she stops doing all of this for them

And Luisa seems to exist only to the family and community as Strong, she is Strong and nothing else, all they do is tell her to go do tasks for them that involve being strong because that is her single point of value and there’s no point listening to her or getting to know her beyond that because she’s just The Strong One

So a song about being tired of being defined by one single trait and instead wanting to explore everything else she can do outside of being strong seems like it would work because no one, including her, knows who she is or what she can do beyond lifting things

Idk I just remember I heard the songs before seeing the movie and thought it was weird that the song about carrying the burdens of the family was given to the person who really just exists to do physical tasks while the song about being defined by one trait was given to the one who from childhood has been forced to exist only in a way that serves the image and needs of the family

#Encanto is one of those movies where I keep feeling like it almost hits for me #but then it will make some decisions that keep it from doing that #like how I also think no one should have had powers when the movie ended #because the powers made so many of them miserable #and losing them made them realize that they are loved and valued regardless and are now free to be whoever they want

Sorry, we took your story’s themes about healing and compassion and decided that it’s actually apologism. Yeah, stories should only have the audience empathise with unproblematic characters. Humanising a character is now the same as excusing their actions.

Also redemption must be reserved only for characters that we deem acceptable of change.

was reading an old article and found out d*sney wanted waiting on a miracle to be a POP SONG💀

everyone say thank you lin for going completely against what they wanted and giving us an absolutely heart wrenching, gorgeous waltz song🙏

#encanto #encanto disney #disneys encanto #mirabel madrigal #mirabel encanto #disney’s encanto #waiting on a miracle #we were saved!!#this is why you let the song writers do their thing #like if woam was a pop song I feel it wouldn’t feel as powerful #like people would just be saying it’s let it go again #the 3/4 time is such an important part of the song I’m glad he fought for it #encanto songs
