Netasha, she/her, my blog is a mess and it will continue to remain the same or worsen. It's a dumpster truck full of my hyper fixations.

i think its so funny that alumni from schools like harvard and columbia that were there during the protests in the 60s-80s are expressing support for students currently protesting against the genocide in palestine, and random zionists that were NOT at these protests in the 60s-80s have the never ending audacity to tell these alumni "well thats different, what you protested was good and what they're protesting is bad." as if protesters against the vietnam war and apartheid south africa were not also demonized, arrested, brutalized, and even killed for their activism. history only remembers them fondly after the damage has already been done.
sharkboy and lavagirl is genuinely such a fun movie to watch, and it ALWAYS will be. I haven’t watched it in a while, but I did watch it again and it continues to hold up and more!
I get so tired of seeing media that fails in everything it tries to do. Like “oh here’s the cool character” that’s actually the lamest person I’ve ever seen, or “oh this is quirky and funny, laugh!” but it’s the most fake “popular girl”-esque joke I’ve ever heard. But sharkboy and lavagirl just takes its cartooniness and FLIES. Sharkboy is actually AWESOME, and the jokes are genuinely funny. The romance isn’t even messed up because there’s barely any romance. The only explicit romance is max’s parents’ marriage healing, and the other two romances are just assumed. Whatever Max and Marissa had going on was a clever little mirroring that allowed Marissa’s character to progress, and Sharkboy and Lavagirl are compliments, red character x blue character DUH.
maybe I got my humor from sharkboy and lavagirl or something cause when i see a place for a joke in another piece of media, but no joke happens, i get disappointed. That doesn’t happen while watching sharkboy and lavagirl!! it makes me so ecstatic.
and Linus actually becoming good. I forgot about that! I thought he was gonna pull Max down, but he actually got a chance, and changed!! (Miraculous Ladybug makes me think this is no longer possible, apparently)
AND THE GRAPHICS!!! i love the graphics they’re such a vibe and you know it!!
i hope i never ever ever see this image while im high or it will also straight up kill me. it would make me so scared my skeleton would run away And id be a boneless scared heap on the ground
