no TV show in the world captures the essence of owning a large dog the way Spy x Family does. bc I also have to step over my large dog bc she insists on walking in my path whenever possible.
I love my dads playstyle of Baldurs Gate, never talks to his companions, never goes to camp, didn't even know there's romance in the game, long rests only when theres no more spells left, explored the underdark before he did the goblin quest, called astarion someone "he wouldn't buy a car from"
As an older(?) Anime fan, I am continuously amused when I spot anime in the wild.
I mean, look at this advertisement. No explanation, no tag line. Just Loid Forger.
Pretend for a second you know nothing about anime or Spy x Family.
Without context, what would this mean?
Who is this? What does he do?
Irrelevant, says Crunchyroll. Look at this man. He's Loid. Spy x Family. What is that? A show? A movie? Who cares. Watch it on Crunchyroll. Is that a channel? An app?Doesn't matter. Look at this handsome man. You want to see more of him. Locate the Crunchyroll. Consume Spy x Family.
i hate to be that guy, but the idea that gender, sex, and sexuality are ontologically pure concepts that can be rigidly defined if we simply police our language enough (our english language, because of course) is—i cannot stress this enough—a total waste of time. you may as well spend your afternoons teaching a brick how to swim
you hate it when wyll calls himself "the blade" because you think it's cringe to talk about yourself in third person. i hate it when wyll calls himself "the blade" because i want him to stop thinking of himself as a hero-object and start seeing the value in wyll ravengard. we are not the same
Do you have time to talk about labor hero and community leader Chilchuck.
Can we talk about how his employers planned for him to die in an expedition and his takeaway was "shit I have to make sure that doesn't happen to any other half-foot".
How he is portrayed by others as greedy and selfish because of his union (a common way of villainizing unionization), but really it's because he knows how shitty adventurers are to his people and wants to keep them safe (also making money is not a crime, he's got to live damnit).
How later in the manga he realizes that many half-foots will struggle financially and go hungry so he wants to do something about it even thought he just went through a lot of insane shit and probably just wants to see his wife and kids.
How despite the snark and grumpiness you can easily see how he raised three girls in how he tries to talk to Izutsumi and takes care of Marcille's hair for her.
He's a sardonic little bastard but also a genuinely caring guy that wants to help his community thrive.
my biggest red flag is that im a lesbian who likes boobs and whenever im watching a show with obvious fanservice and all the girls have their massive tits hanging out of their bras being held together by string, my first reaction isnt to go "god im so tired of all this oversexualization of women". i go WOOOOO BOOBIES !!!!!!!!!
