actually hey btw, reminder that aromantic men and asexual men, like,,,, exist? and that just bc theyre men doesnt make their lack of romantic and/or sexual feelings "shallow" or "fake." i promise that men aren't always trying to trick you or lie to you or whatever, and denying aro/ace men's existence and validity only continues to hurt the entirety of the queer community.

Just sharing some of my favorite yuri manga I've read recently that I've really liked, they're cute and good and mostly do my soul good. In order from top left to bottom right:

Whispering You a Love Song

Can't Defy the Lonely Girl

Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon

The Summer You Were There

Your True Color

All of them have been a delight and so here they are. Though just a warning, Kimi to Tsuzuru Utakata/The Summer You Were There hurts, should've known.

Honorable mention to Trying Out Marriage With my Female Friend, too, it's very cute and by the same author of Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon

ghibli movies: funny little ladies going on adventures and living their lives :) look at how pretty these trees and flowers are. oh its a kitty cat!! :0

also ghibli movies: fuck you. war and capitalism is destroying the earth. several cultures have drastically and irreversibly altered by western influence, many for the worse. the world collapsing in on itself. now watch these children slowly die for two hours. fuck you.

kinda makes me emotional how in mystery incorporated, ALL of the gang are shown to feel outcast from their family in some way, and how having each other to lean on is what makes things better for them in the end.

like, daphne doesn't get along with her sisters, who constantly look down on her, and her parents are disapproving of her hobbies, friends, and boyfriend.

shaggy's parents are distant and the first chance they get they send him away to the military and scooby to a farm.

velma doesnt understand why her parents do what they do and so quickly believe in the supernatural, and in turn she feels like they dont understand her either.

and fred has such an insanely complicated and genuinely kind of sad relationship with every member of his family. the closest thing he has to a parent is the man who raised him-- and mayor jones is similarly unhappy with fred's interests and thinks he's strange-- and it turns out that not only is he not his real father, but that he's a criminal who HE helped catch. and when he finally meets his real parents after searching for them for so long (all while LITERALLY HOMELESS), they use him for their own gain.

but like,,, all of them are still so happy regardless. because they have each other. and even when they fight and break up and things are hard, they always come together in the end because they love one another so much. and that love is why they overcome the curse and stick together even after the universe is reset into an ideal world for them all. not only are they friends, but they're a family.

maybe its bc im aro but fandoms extreme obsession with romance completely exhausts me sometimes. like why is a relationship between two characters only valuable if its romantic? why arent characters allowed to be friends, family, or queerplatonic? why do you have to cram romance into absolutely everything you create and consume?

i don't often like to criticize or complain about ninjago (just bc doing that with my special interests makes me sad), but jesus christ, i am so so tired of the continuous pattern of ninjago introducing a new character just so they can be a love interest. at the very least, nya allowed to be something outside of her romance with the jay, but that's still only 1/7. meanwhile pixal only gets to exist without zane sometimes; akita and harumi (in crystalized) have their romances tacked on for little to no reason; and skylor, vania, and geo don't have enough screen time or strong writing for me to consider them actual people.

and that sucks because i LIKE all those characters and i like some of the ships their involved in, but it's also just,,, SO fucking frustrating as an aromantic person to see characters only be created so they can date another one and do nothing else. especially since most of them are one-off female characters and there's a good chance of never seeing again ever, meaning not only do i, as a woman, lose part of my representation, but that i STILL can't fully relate to them because all of them are/were intended to pair up with other characters.

anyways. sorry for the rant. ninjago is definitely not the worst offender when it comes to this trend, but its still something i think about a lot because the series is so special to me. i guess i just felt like getting it out of my system

isnt it interesting how nagisa, a child deeply depraved of love and affection, has a horn for a weapon? something that's literally made to make noise and grab attention?

and yet when she uses it, all that comes out are bubbles. completely silent air that may attract attention visually, but will never be heard. even when she's given something to help her be heard, nothing she does ever reaches her mother.

psychonauts 2 said "older generations are not inherently evil for their ways of thinking. they have lived and have suffered in different ways than you have, and while that doesnt neccesarily excuse their actions, they are still deserving of the opportunity to grow and better themselves. you are never too old to make yourself a better person. sometimes all you need is someone new and kind who's willing to listen" and it was right

#tara says stuff #psychonauts #psychonauts 2 #i know younger ppl like to make fun of baby boomers and stuff and like i get it but. #idk sometimes i think some ppl just dont care enough to try and understand #like #genuinely try talking to ur elders. ask them what it was like when they were growing up. ask them about their life experiences. #u can learn and understand so much #in 50 years itll be u who's ''behind the times'' and being ignored bc of ur age #idk #just #be understanding. be kind. be patient.
