Was there ever a time when the fairy boys watched some cartoons for smaller kids (like Dora the explorer, Bluey or Teletubbies) through someone's window or something? If yes then what were their favorite cartoons?

I'm sure they've caught glimpses when around human homes. Especially if they were watching a baby.

The thought of it is actually funny. I legitimately think they would be entertained by such kids shows like Dora, Peppa Pig, Bluey, Blue's Clues, etc.

Prac teacher here - I'm only 21 and 3/4 done with my degree so I'm not claiming to be the biggest expert around but... Children's media creators have a duty to think carefully about every single implication they put on screen. There's a difference between say, SpongeBob, explicitly a show about idiots and bad people and a show like ML that's supposed to have a "message". They have a duty do to this because children and being against their abuse trumps all your "creative freedom" (before anyone tries, no this isn't about LGBT people. That's harmless. Obviously.) Audrey was willing to call Chloé worthless in front of all of Paris without a second thought and her behavior was never shown as "just a comedic thing" but something that genuinely upsets Chloé so much that at 14, she's very aware that her mother doesn't love her and she questions it. Audrey explicitly says she'll turn her life into hell. People need to look past fandom terms like "cHaRacTeR StAn" and understand that some of us look deep into this because we've experienced it (like many children unfortunately currently are) and/or have actual education in child psychology and development.

Yeah, there's definitely a difference. If everything is farcical and silly, and you stay away from deep topics, then you have a lot more freedom and less responsibility. There are plenty of shows that go shallow, and there's no reason to pick at them. That's their lane.

It's when a show tries to go deep that the care is required. You don't need to address child abuse, but if you do, do it well. You don't need to address addiction, but if you do, do it well. You don't need to address PTSD, but if you do, do it well.

That's where ML falls down.

Marinette's antics were framed as farcical humor for several seasons. Jokes might hit or miss, but it was clear they were all jokes. No, we aren't supposed to take the fireman helping her build a pyramid out of bins so she can look over the wall into Adrien's window seriously. Then halfway through season 5 we ARE supposed to take it seriously, and it's supposed to be PTSD that we've NEVER heard about until now, that magically only showed up now and very quickly vanishes simply because she 'tries' like, that's it. That's.... not how PTSD works.

It's the same with Tikki's 'addiction' from Dearest Family. Appears out of nowhere, happens, almost destroys the world, and then after a pep talk it's gone. That one is *slightly* more reasonable because it all involves a magical being not a human child.

And of course the child abuse. I don't need to get into all that again.

When your words have reach, you have a duty to pick them carefully. If you don't want to, don't pick up the megaphone.

I'm looking for a show I used to watch as a kid but don't remember much

I don't remember much of it but the protagonists were some puppets and a guy.

in one episode the guy was exchanging gifts with a girl (I don't remember if it was christmas or a birthday or something but it was probably christmas) and the puppets saw that and wanted to celebrate too. but they didn't know the presents were boxes filled with things so they just made a very beautiful box for their human friend. and later they were sad to discover that they had to put something in it but he loved it anyway.

in another episode I remember for some reason their fruit had colors they weren't supposed to have and the puppets were all very confused by that.

also the scenes I remember were in a beautiful garden/balcony/outside space that belonged to a house I think and it was filled with flowers and plants and stuff and I remember that it looked kinda cluttered and had that magical vibe.

that's all I remember sorry, it's not a lot of information but if someone recognized the show pls tell me the name of it! thanks!! <3

how are they gonna adequately prepare whatever child they cast for nico di angelo. it has got to be impossible for someone that young to give informed consent about playing the saddest wettest loser in all of human history. like hey kid i know youre sprightly and all of ten, but we need you to be in all five stages of grief at all times. remember, your mother was killed in fascist italy, youre eighty years old, and now youre in love with the guy who killed your sister. say this next line like you know what it's like to be an ear of corn.

for ages i thought i didnt like drag because of internalized homophobia but it turned out i just don't like bright lights and loud music and really visually complicated things

spd is homophobic i guess is what im saying

#i fucking hate live shows of any sort #every time my dad dragged me to one as a little kid i was miserable the whole time #i like to consume things from a tiny rectangle on my computer screen and nothing bigger than that

[lousolversons]

me watching 'gratuitous' sex and violence and ''problematic representation'' in my shows and movies made for adults

the funniest part of any Robin meeting the JL is that every Robin is so distinctly different from the previous one in terms of personality and vibes that the league literally gets backlash. and like, I don't blame them. not to mention that they are non-meta children that dress as a traffic light and fight crime alongside batman in gotham on a nightly basis. i'd also be a bit concerned. Batman, literally The Night of Gotham personified in the League's eyes, coming into a JL meeting: This is Robin, my crime-fighting partner. 11-year-old Dick Grayson, dressed in the brightest primary colours possible, vaguely hidden murder behind those eyes, never stops moving even for a moment: Hi! Superman: That's a child. That's-- Bats that is a child. You let a child--? Batman, deadpan: You try to stop him. Would you rather he try and murder a grown man with a wire?

Batman: This is Robin. 12-year-old Jason Todd, with the biggest grin on his face, about 3 books in his hand, stars in his eyes and a distinct street-kid drawl: Hey!!! Green Lantern: That's ... that's a different child. What?? Jason: I stole his tires :) Batman: Tried to. Jason, stage whispering to the League: basically did. Green Lantern: that is a different kid, right?? I'm not seeing shit??

Batman: This is Robin. 14-year-old Tim Drake, bo staff clutched in his hand, a wary and tired expression on his face, more on the quiet side, the literal walking definition of don't judge a book by it's cover: hello Flash: Where do you even find these-- Tim: I found myself.

Batman: This is Robin. 17-year-old Stephanie Brown, literally blonde, with a shit-eating grin, eyes full of nothing but mischief and the most explosive personality you've ever seen: hiya!! Superman: I give up. Stephanie: I know, I have that amazing effect on people.

Batman: This is Robin. 13-year-old Damian Wayne, a literal wet cat that will hiss at you, has a sword, the most judgemental stare you'll get from a teenager, ready to jump anyone there: Green Lantern: WHY DOES HE HAVE A SWORD?! Batman: ... he came with the sword.

#batman #batfam #tim drake #jason todd #dick grayson #damian wayne #stephanie brown #dc comics #icb i posted this w/o tags the first time #what is wrong w me #superman: where do you find these kids #bruce: they just show up tbh #especially tim. he LITERALLY just showed up #anyone: so which one is really robin? #bruce: they are all really robin. #bruce: dick wanted to kill a man. #jason tried hijacking my tires in CRIME ALLEY. #tim just appeared and made himself robin that was NOT me #stephanie also wanted to kill a man. #damian did kill a man. or two. #YOU try to parent these kids then come back to me clark

Rick Riordan constantly trashing the movies for not sticking to his books then releasing a show in which he rewrites everything and loses the spirit of the books entirely

I like to think that Vulcans who come to understand that Humans just can’t try to process emotions the same way as them, it’s just healthiest to let it out in harmless ways, decide that venting and stuff should be taken just as seriously as Vulcan’s meditation time, and will encourage the Humans around them to complain about what’s upsetting them

People who are used to aloof Vulcans who avoid Humans at all cost running into one comforting a Human

“-and then they said my cheesecake was subpar, and they didn’t even bring a dish!!!”

“The purpose of this event was that every participant brings a food item of sorts, correct?”

“Yeah!!”

“And they did not follow this rule while insulting dishes that were brought?”

“Mostly just my dish but yeah >:(“

“How illogical”

“That’s what I’m saying!!!”

#star trek #Vulcans #Humans #not based on a specific thing #but I used to know this annoying couple that were ‘family friends’ #who would show up to potluck dinners and the like and would either bring nothing or bring something really just. out of left field? #like a bag of frozen chicken to a bbq #and then proceed to make sure they are first even if it was stated to let kids go first #would take HUGE amounts before anyone else got a chance to get a plate #and then make off with the leftovers again even if they were already claimed for #and it wasn’t a food insecurity thing trust me I would never speak bad about a person getting food if that was even a remote chance #the adults who raised us knew them really well and we’d been to their house a ton of times #they were just dicks #and yeah. they’d occasionally insult the food. while eating the MAJORITY of it. #it was so weird at their home they would go out of their way to get the healthiest options possible #you know the really bland tasteless expensive stuff that apparently was healthier #but then if they were visiting our house they would. eat all our unhealthy snacks. #that always pissed me off so much as a kid because we actually had a food insecurity thing going on #and also a variety of other reasons that are a bit too depressing to bring up on this post #but anyways we’d hardly ever get to have nice snacks #and this couple would just take them all??? even after we’d tell them repeatedly that it was ours and those snacks weren’t gonna be #replaced #hated that couple #if you’re wondering why they were ‘family friends’ it’s because the couple who raised us #(it feels weird to type it out like that but apparently legal guardians doesn’t fit since they never finished petitioning 💀) #liked having them around because it made them look like ‘such great Christian’s’ being nice to the people #that no one else wanted to be friends with #I always thought that was a really weird and fucked up reason to be friends with someone #this got long sorry 😭

Whoever cast Echidna as a PTA mom was so right for that

Mother of all monsters? Yeah, I’ll bet her kid is the absolute worst

and she knows it

It’s giving “how dare you accuse my child of such a thing. We do so much for this school and this is what we get?”
