Red Bull can be beaten on pace, Ferrari upgrades coming in Imola including a pointy front end and more power……oh I don’t want to say anything except that I am furthered in my belief that Charles’ 2024 is the equivalent of Max’s 2020.

Shipping is such an interesting concept. It can be for fun, but it can also be for filling the gap where representation lacks. And that's important. That is SO important.

I've passively shipped before, but bakudeku has definitely been a very different, very intense, shipping experience. And lately I've been thinking about how heavy the potential is for it to become canon.

I want you to let go of the more surface level feelings of shipping for a moment to consider this: if shipping is something that allows us to find solace where representation otherwise lacks, how much more impactful do you think it would be for it to turn canon? Really think about the impact that would have.

We are talking about the first MAJOR Shonen anime to give us two gay leads. Do you know what that means? Can you actually feel the gravity of it? We stand on the cusp, on a turning point, in both anime and queer history. MHA might not be the first Shonen to ever have gay characters, but it is one of the top animes in the world. It's reach is vast. Imagine the impact it will have on both the anime and queer community. I don't think I can stress how wildly important it would be to see this ship reach canon foundation. Kids and repressed adults alike could see characters that are just like them. And it wouldn't be in a bad or stereotypical light. Could you imagine? Two gay/queer superheroes. What would you have given for that when you were young? ...What would you give for that now? To feel a part of something. To feel validated. To see love on a screen that actually looks like your love...

Throughout my time in the MHA fandom, I have been hesitant to allow myself to have hope in this possibility. To believe that it even had a chance really. But guys, I think there is a chance. And even if it doesn't end up happening... hasn't Horikoshi taught us, if nothing else, that HOPE is good? That hope is powerful and influencial?

I had an openly gay friend tell me that he wouldn't be caught dead shipping a gay couple in a Shonen anime. He LOVES MHA and ships Ochako and Izuku. When I asked him why, he told me "because there's no point in hoping for something that will never happen". I asked what he liked about the couple, he said "nothing more than they're realistic"... Realistic of what? He doesn't have an answer. But this is what our culture and media has done. He is married to a man and is ashamed to try and find any couple that might look like him because of the impact that media has had on him throughout his life. He is so afraid of being queer baited to a degree that he only looks at straight heteronormative couples... I hate that.

I don't want to live like that.

So yes, maybe it's a long shot, though right now it doesn't feel all that long. But I'm going to hope. And if it happens I'm going to cry and celebrate the turning of an era. And if it doesn't...then I'm going to still keep hoping, that one day something will change. Because everyone deserves to see their own love immortalized in media, especially in a culture so saturated in it.

So, here's to our symbols of both hope and victory. Let love win and save, save and win. Best of luck to Horikoshi who I am sure is fighting a good fight and of course to our boys Izuku and Katsuki. I believe in you.

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

#due to the Great Data Decay academics write viciously argumentative articles on which episodes aired in what order #at conferences professors have known to engage in physically violent altercations whilst debating the air date number of household viewers #90% of the couch gags have been lost and there is a billion dollar trade in counterfeit “lost copies” #serious note: i'll be honest i always assumed it was english imperialism that made shakespeare so inescapable in the 19th/20th cent #like his writing should have become obscure at the same level of his contemporaries #but british imperialists needed an ENGLISH LANGUAGE (and BRITISH) writer to venerate #and shakespeare wrote so many damn things that there was a humongous body of work just sitting there waiting to be culturally exploited... #i know it didn't happen like this but i imagine a English Parliament House Committee Member For The Education Of The Masses or something #cartoonishly stumbling over a dusty cobwebbed crate labelled the Complete Works of Shakespeare #and going 'Eureka! this shall make excellent propoganda for fabricating a national identity in a time of great social unrest. #it will be a cornerstone of our elitist educational institutions for centuries to come! long live our decaying empire!' #'what good fortune that this used to be accessible and entertaining to mainstream illiterate audience members... #..but now we can strip that away and make it a difficult & alienating foundation of a Classical Education! just like the latin language :)' #anyway maybe there's no such thing as the 'greatest writer of x language' in ANY language? #maybe there are just different styles and yes levels of expertise and skill but also a high degree of subjectivity #and variance in the way that we as individuals and members of different cultures/time periods experience any work of media #and that's okay! and should be acknowledged!!! and allow us to give ourselves permission to broaden our horizons #and explore the stories of marginalized/underappreciated creators #instead of worshiping the List of Top 10 Best (aka Most Famous) Whatevers Of All Time/A Certain Time Period #anyways things are famous for a reason and that reason has little to do with innate “value” #and much more to do with how it plays into the interests of powerful institutions motivated to influence our shared cultural narratives #so i'm not saying 'stop teaching shakespeare'. but like...maybe classrooms should stop using it as busy work that (by accident or designs) #happens to alienate a large number of students who could otherwise be engaging critically with works that feel more relevant to their world #(by merit of not being 4 centuries old or lacking necessary historical context or requiring untaught translation skills) #and yeah...MAYBE our educational institutions could spend less time/money on shakespeare critical analysis and more on... #...any of thousands of underfunded areas of literary research i literally (pun!) don't know where to begin #oh and p.s. the modern publishing world is in shambles and it would be neat if schoolwork could include modern works? #beautiful complicated socially relevant works of literature are published every year. it's not just the 'classics' that have value #and actually modern publications are probably an easier way for students to learn the basics. since lesson plans don't have to include the #important historical/cultural context many teens need for 20+ year old media (which is older than their entire lived experience fyi)

playing a new game where i talk about fandom using words that belong on corporate powerpoint slides like:

✨ we have to align our headcanons to authentically reflect our strategic mission and meet quarterly margin objectives ✨

sorry to everyone who understood that

#translation: 'everyone should agree with my obviously correct takes so there will be more fic i like in the tag' #add something about the ability to 'quickly pivot in response to changing market trends' if it's a fandom with actively airing canon
