#those are the queer coded ones

[gunstreet]

sorry I'm not a photoshop master but would someone mind hanging this up in the SNW writers' room because I think we have all had enough

#Nimoy's portrayal of Spock is INTENTIONALLY Jewish coded and visibly queer coded #you can claim ignorance as a casual fan but as a writer it's your JOB to know and honour this shit #SNW has done ok with autistic coding of Spock but the erasure of the other stuff feels deliberate at this point #like cishet white nerd men want him to be like them so they make these bizarro choices that feel like a totally different person #sorry but he's not FOR you #he was NEVER for you #you already have everything else please just let him be the way he was intended to be #let us have one gd thing #why are the opinions of people who don't care about Star Trek's ethics and legacy more important than the opinions of the those who do #star trek #strange new worlds

Ok now that the excitement is out of the way.

Phineas and Ferb got a proper, good ending. It had a nice follow up movie. If anything, we could have just had a single mini series revolving around Perry and Stacy, because that was the only plot point in the show that never got wrapped up.

Phineas and Ferb didn't need a series renewal. There are many other shows (looking SPECIFICALLY at The Owl House, btw) that deserved a renewal more. Please keep that in mind as we stay tuned for release dates

And tbh it wouldn't hurt to pressure Dan and Disney on social media and let them know we want more queer and poc rep, as well as expanding on the rep we already HAVE. Explore Isabella's and Baljeet's and Stacy's families more (without the weird stereotypes), make characters canonly queer (I mean this seriously guys, I do not mean perryshmirtz )(trans Doof is ✨right there✨), explore Buford and Isabella living with single parents, anything. I know ultimately it's up to Disney, but if Dan won't even try for it, then the renewal was worthless.

The world has grown in the 8 years since we were left in the backyard. Why should the show remain stagnant and the same as it always was?

#phineas and ferb #pnf #pnf renewal #literally just give someone a rainbow button on a bag how hard would that be? #bujeet is queer coded #django and jenny are queer coded #hell theyre so side character that new ppl wont even know they exist so they could do w/e they want with them #doof is trans coded and gay coded #like even ignoring personal headcanons those ones are 100% plausible #and pls i stg if we get something like rubber bands rubber balls or welcome to tokyo again in the year of our lord 2023? #that's just straight up not okay #we can do so much with this renewal #actual PLOT #if 2003 tmnt can change their whole art style mid series pnf can add in plot #catu had good genuine emotion i really dont want to go back to the same old episode format as before

danganronpa is so fucking crazy bc it’s like “hi. this is a game series with a fucking amazing premise. unfortunately the writing sucks and is bad and you will spend half the time going ‘eugh why did they write that’ but you will play the whole thing anyways and get attached to your favorite characters and cry when they inevitably die. also it is filled with romance subplots that will stay in your brain forever” HUH??????

#marzi speaks #like. dr sucks but i like it. #but it sucks #but then like. there’s just??? so much in-depth romance and it makes me want to cry??? #like. like. thh. asahina + sakura (so sorry lesbians i do not know their ship name). they are so cute and then they are so tragic #and ishimondo. GODDDDD ishimondo. you get to go ‘oh HELL yeah’ for a chapter and then they make you HURT #even like. makoto w/sayaka. start of the betrayal girlfriend trend. love it #and even toko and togami are interesting!!! like they will not date and should not date but they are fascinating #and then sdr2. do not get me STARTED on komahina what sort of psychosexual freudian bullshit are they on i will never know #but there’s also like. hinanami who r SO good. and mahiru and hiyoko who. tbh i wish they were handled better but still #fuyupeko. they make me crazy. and their parallels to akane and nekomaru. aaaa #SONDAM oh my goddd. they’re so #i may not be a v3 fan but they DID give us a lesbian love triangle and i do have to thank them for that #also the best polycule in the world in the form of the workout trio #kokichi i don’t like. but i DO like his little crush on shuichi even if i think it’s one-sided #kiibouruma will forever be real to me tho. world’s worst polycule. for balance #anyways why does dr have so many good romance plots. they’re so. why are those so good #AND WHY ARE LIKE HALF OF THEM QUEER. WHY DOES THE HOMOPHOBIA GAME HAVE SO MUCH QUEER CODING #idk i’m insane. <3 i’m a little crazy. komahina what the hell even are you….

sorry I will not shut up about this show But. I just. wanted to mention how fucking cool it is that ok ko has a major bi character in it (a bi man at that) that has important on-screen romantic relationships portrayed with both a female partner and a male partner and neither is considered less legitimate than the other. his orientation isnt pointlessly called into question or suggested to have been faked or changed for ending up with a man when he was previously with a woman. It’s just natural, and so one doubts that he was once romantically interested in/involved with carol just because he ended up with boxman. and I think that is very cool and something I feel like I super rarely see with bi characters– when bi characters are represented I feel like it’s pretty common to only have them shown romantically involved with one gender or another and it’s more of a side note that they also like people outside that gender, or they’re portrayed as “confused” or god forbid suggesting their feelings for someone weren’t really real because they ended up with someone of another gender (not to be confused with comp het; in that case the individual isn’t bi and that’s different). And so having a children/family show that has two solidly bi characters first of all, and one who’s a grown adult who’s had established relationships with two genders on screen is just honestly really cool and I appreciate that so much

#kibumblabs #ok ko #ok ko spoilers #also I emphasize that he’s a Man in that first part because bi men are doubted so fucking often over their orientation and hardly #openly represented on tv– let alone childrens tv– at all. I’ve been told irl that bi men don’t actually exist and that in the end they #end up gay or straight becuase that’s what they Actually Are. #which is obviously fucked up on many levels and blatantly false #so yeah like!!! seeing a grown man who’s obviously not ‘confused’ and who isn’t questioned over falling for a woman then a man is just!!!!! #it’s very good it’s very good it’s very good #i love the purple bisexual snake man so much <3 #long post #professor venomous #ok ko let's be heroes #there’s also no obvious coding of the queer characters in queer relationships to fit them into a masculine or feminine role if that makes #sense which is also cool. #like you don’t see red or enid and think one is in the Woman’s Role and one is in the Man’s Role– they’re both just. themselves. #same goes for pv and boxman; both are just. dudes. weird mutant dudes but dudes. with some traits more masc some more feminine because #the people making the show understand that how those traits are distributed does not matter #i feel like I was gonna say something else but I’m forgetting what it was so oh well

[bonetrousledbones]

at this point i’m convinced folks saying “people ONLY want perfect unproblematic queer characters but I’M different and want them to KILL” are just making up guys to get mad at because who. literally genuinely who are the people that only want flat/”perfect” queer rep i haven’t seen a single one since like 2018 but i’ve seen like 6 posts like this in the past week

#trousled rambles #emphasis on rambles #maybe this is just specific to my dash but i keep seeing those posts #and every single time im just. jesse what the fuck are you talking about #i promise you are not going to get cancelled for making gay characters kill people/each other bc when has that ever been a problem dude #people criticizing a character's actions are not condemning the story they're just saying Hey That Guy Kinda Sucks In A Way I Dont Like #you are allowed to say That Guy Sucks In A Way I DO Like without making it a whole Thing. you will be fine i swear to you #there's also a difference between wanting perfect unproblematic characters and thinking some rep is harmful and bad #when you're character is one Bad Gay in a story full of different kinds of morality gays you are FINE #when there is one Bad Gay and the rest of the characters are Good Not-Queers + Tokens that is where the problem is #i'm glad you're able to recognize disney's hades as a cool gay character but he's still literally propaganda #people aren't silencing you by pointing that out & critiquing other queer/queer-coded villains through the same lens #homophobia in media didn't just magically poof away with steven universe man ppl are allowed to still be wary #pbbbthth rambled more than i meant to but u get it whatever

[many-gay-magpies]

if you think jim lake is bisexual in the tv show, you should see him dual-wielding swords in the book

#one of his swords is named after claire and the other one is named after one of toby's grandma's cats. need i say more #magpie thoughts #toa #tales of arcadia #trollhunters #jim is just kinda one of those characters where theres not like. any specific canon reasoning or evidence for him being bi. he doesnt have #-any weirdly homoerotic or queer-coded scenes with other male characters or anything (not counting toby). but i know in my heart of hearts #-that boy is bi.

the sense of having any lore about the ancient [ten to thirteen years ago] of marble hornets times like granpa granpa tell us a greentext story....the only hitch is not having stories and instead having "i guess you had to be there" tales from the fringes, unless instead of a hitch you frame this as a bit

Shout out to the Sugeon in The Sea Beast (2022) -who was so insignificant that he didn't even have a name, had 5 minutes of screentime & maybe 3-4 lines, & he doesn't even have a single picture of him that I can find.- gotta be one genders & characters.

#the sea beast #tsb #tsb surgeon #personal review on the move: #wonderful & timely message about #the tragedy of perpetuating a needless war #& how history is written to benefit those in power by lying & pitting living things against eachother #& how the individual people lost to war are not the ones at fault for being deceived into fight the wealthy's wars #absolutely breathtaking animation & brilliantly color scheme #endless amounts of unique characters with many female & queer coded side characters who would have been men in all other media #no needless romantic side plot #largely (not all) fleshed out characters with believable backstories & motivations #good overall plot #...& then there's the execution of all of those wonderful things... #the pace of the movie feels both way too rushed & agonizingly slow #the introduction of the evil witch character halfway through the movie was confusing & anticlimactic #captain crow's decent into villainhood felt too sudden & rash to turn against his beloved adopted son #but none the less captain crow as a villain was an excellent choice none the less #a ridged white man stuck in his ways w/ unearned selfrighteousness & lust for 'revenge' is certainly a mirror of the villains of real life #as if the loss of his eye from a creature defending herself is equivalent to him intentionally committing genocide qualifies as revenge #as well as the villian of a pompous extraordinarily wealthy political power who uses said wealth & power to gain more- #-by sending the civilians to fight a war on their behalf so that they may reap all of the benefits & none of the risks #the fact that it was a king & queen is especially enjoyable that they are the bad guys in different ways from start to finish #i love Maisie Brumble but the amount of speaches she gives in such a short amount of time feels excessive. her strong will & level headed- #-speaches would have be much better suited (along with the rest of the movie) as a limited tv show or a 3+ part hour long specials #that would have given this wonderful little girl more time to show her plucky determination & unimaginable compassion & utter joy for life- #in other matters- while not a bad thing(especially for a children's movie) the message of the story was very plainly said allowed which is- #-good for children but leaves something to be desided if intended for a broader age range audience #again the outspocken message would've played better had the movie been longer & broken up so we could really WATCH more of the characters- #-actually learning the lessons over a longr period of time instead of a short period of self-reflection& analysis &a plainly spoken message

[huntingrays]

me trying to figure out if the queer ship a fandom is obsessed with is queer coded or queerbait:

#ray rambles #fandom memes #fandom ships #gay ships #queer coding #queerbaiting #all destiel fans deserve financial compensation #or the secret third option: baseless and just based on vibes #but this is mainly about those BIG ones

Anyways shoutout to LGBT+ folk in STEM. To the bears in theoretical physics and the high femme computer engineers. To the biology dykes and the wildlife twinks. To the trans chemists and the queer nuclear engineers. To everyone in the community who was never a theater nerd or art kid or band member, who preferred to play with code and homemade microscopes. We’re often erased from our own community and history, but we know who we are and that we aren’t going anywhere.

Let’s do Alan proud.

#ra speaks #lgbt #queer #stem #technology #science #alan turing #sorry I can’t relate to those ‘were you a theater kid gay or an art class gay?’ type posts and I saw one too many today #were you a robotics club or chess club queer? microscopes or telescopes? genetics or coding? physics or chemistry?

A lot of people on this website need to learn that progressive theory doesn't exist to give you pretty compassionate-sounding language to justify your existing biases or to let you promote your personal blorbopinions as a moral imperative; it exists to help you UNLEARN those biases and recognize that people can and SHOULD be allowed to resonate with something for different reasons than you

#serious tag #fandom #guess who saw MORE people using fictional characters to justify their own biases with 'progressive' language AGAIN #listen to me #if YOU want to headcanon every gnc 'male' character as a trans woman #if YOU want to headcanon every character you relate to as a kinsey 6 #if YOU want to headcanon any specific character archetype as ace #because thats what makes YOU feel good and seen and validated #FUCKING GO FOR IT #do it! #thats LITERALLY what transformative fandom is FOR #but if youre going to insist that this is DEFINITELY VERY SPECIFIC coding of YOUR read and NO ONE ELSE'S #and use that to say that OTHER QUEER FANS with OTHER QUEER HEADCANONS #in a microcosm where a piece of fan work gets maybe 1% of the fandom's eyes on it is considered a RESOUNDING success #are a bigger threat to you than these absurd mask-off attacks on queer rights going on in MULTIPLE countries ALL OVER the globe #or perhaps even worse #that someone not sharing your blorbopinion is PART of those attacks #or if youll scream until youre blue in the face 'WE NEED REPRESENTATION! WE NEED REPRESENTATION!' #but then the MOMENT you get any kind of positive queer media #whether big or small #you find some way to claim it's suuuuper problematic #(usually by evoking stereotypes with extra steps #often while calling that piece of media 'stereotypical'....) #step away from the keyboard and realize #the queerphobic one is YOU

really thinking about that "they're lgbtq" "what, all at once" post rn

#echos #its such a mood #if i were a fictional character i would want to be one of those characters that's so immensely queer coded #that nobody can agree on what KIND of queer but I'm definitely very very queer #like how Link in the fandom is simultaneously transmasc and transfem and transneu #hes so trans coded that hes literally every flavor of trans like ever #... link has been a source of gender envy for me for. many many years

I can't believe I had to explain that you cannot say some marginalized groups are better off than others and so it cancels out their oppression when compared. they are all actively being oppressed. oppression for the sole reason of a human being existing is never okay

AND I HAD TO EXPLAIN THIS TO MY FAMILY. WE ARE PART OF SEVERAL MARGINALIZED GROUPS COMBINED. TAKE A LOOK AROUND AND STOP THROWING STONES FROM A GLASS HOUSE

#we obviously don't cover every group we're very white #BUT GUYS ONE OF YOU IS TRANS YOU ARE ALL LOWER MIDDLE CLASS BORDERING ON WHATEVER BELOW MIDDLE CLASS IS #members of your family are disabled some are women some don't fall within the gender binary some are queer #AND ALL OF THOSE GROUPS ARE BEING OPPRESSED #where's that post that says oppression isn't a game where one wins over the other like pokemon types #they need that framed on a wall #ay code compiling
