some of y'all seem to be unaware of exactly what constitutes a tumblr sexyman so please allow someone who has been around since before Nightvale aired attempt to clarify:
a tumblr sexyman is not sexy* by default/in canon. a tumblr sexyman is only sexy because they have been so delightfully misrepresented by fandom that they have come to be portrayed as sexy with no direct canon support.
(*"sexy" here meaning "conventionally attractive and/or cool." The population of this site has very wide and varied ideas about what sexy actually is. this is why we have tumblr sexymen.)
If in the source material they:
are a bit of a wet cat, a bit of a derp
if they do things like put their green-screened facecam on a bit of lime glass in the hotbar
or mute so they can panic without other people hearing and say things like "...ah ha. so." about twelve times per episode
or open their episodes with an "awwwwww yeeeaaaah" and a giggle because even they can't believe they're that derpy
or ramble on and on about tomatoes and their adorable two-year-old while being just the chillest Guy Ever
or literally call themselves a spoon on a regular basis -- fully justified in doing so
and yet all the fanart of them is "cool eldritch being in neon shades" or "mysterious ninja who can outsmart you every time," or "deep sea monster creature with godlike powers" or "scary and hot shirtless monster cyborg man" or "suave possible vampire" --
that is a character that has been sexymanified.

Just learned that Bill Willingham, creator of the Fables universe of comics best known from Telltale Games's The Wolf Among Us, has taken what he sees as the only real action to stop DC from just trampling over everything: make his universe public domain.
As a creative, I cannot help but bask in how baller of a move this is. I cannot think of many people who would have done the same, but it rules.
And as it turns out it's something born out of his wider feelings on copyright in general- this is him putting his money (arguably literally) where his mouth is.
I've honestly not read any of Fables and haven't even played The Wolf Among Us, but this is definitely the sort of thing that'd push me to.

that entire conversation in the beginning of monarch e3 about there “being a place for a gun-toting neanderthal” and not wanting to hide who they were was literally about shaw randa and miura being polyamorous

“About a third of our population is African American; African Americans have a higher incidence of maternal mortality. So, if you correct our population for race, we’re not as much of an outlier as it’d otherwise appear. Now, I say that not to minimize the issue but to focus the issue as to where it would be. For whatever reason, people of color have a higher incidence of maternal mortality.”
There is no clearer way to say they they believe Black Lives Don’t Matter. Bill Cassidy wants you to know he only cares about the white population.
And then there’s the “for whatever reason” people of color die more in childbirth. Just sweep that right under the rug. - The reason is they don’t have access to the care they need because you defund things like planned parenthood and make access impossible.
