@rosesonapond asked for a HansAnna kid for the If They Had A Kid Meme~ (I will be working on these slowly, and in separate posts/asks. I’ll get to the Justney one later.) -- Not particularly into Frozen anymore, but these two are still considered an OTP to me. // Don’t like the ship? Ignore this post. -- Name: Emery Gender: Female General Appearance: Emery has fair skin like her parents, and inherited her father’s freckles. She has blue eyes like Anna, and auburn hair like Hans. Her hairstyle is somewhat of a half-braid, she likes to keep it loose and just minimally braid it. (I’m bad at describing outfits, so be on the look out for a lil’ drawing of her sometime in the next few days.) Personality: She’s cheerful, compassionate, and kind. She loves making friends, but she’s also really naive, so she’s pretty easy to take advantage of her. It's why she lacks confidence at times, because she’s been hurt before and wonders if anyone thinks less of her for it. Special Talents: Archery, horseback riding, baking. Who they like better: She adores both her parents equally. May be found mostly with Hans, because her father wants to keep her safe. Who they take after more: Definitely Anna. She has an insane love for chocolate, is pretty naive like her mother used to be (Anna lost most of that naivety the more time she spent with Hans), and a hopeless romantic. (which is dangerous, because while Hans learned from his mistakes, he fears that his little girl could fall for someone similarly to how he got Anna to fall for him. So yeah... just protective father here.)  Personal Head canon: N/A. (kinda gave a gist of Emery & Hans’ father/daughter dynamic. lol. I think that counts?) _______________ --- I told myself this was gonna just be a random fankid, but I’m already kinda attached? ---

Things I've seen tumblr memeing about James Somerton doing à la "How did no one see how bigoted he was!" as if those things haven't been a significant part of tumblr culture for over a decade :

Presenting untrue and bordering on conspiratorial versions of (queer or otherwise marginalised) history without any sources

Completely disregarding and disrespecting any expertise on socio-cultural topics/humanities and distrusting academics and historians (incl. acting as if no academics or historians could be queer or marginalised)

Downplaying the role misogyny played in the historical oppression of queer women and concluding that queer men must have been more oppressed than queer women

Bi women are, at best, not as queer as "real" queer ppl, and at worst, simply equivalent to straight women

Despite nominal trans inclusivity, transmasculine ppl are functionally women when convenient (combined with the above, bi transmascs are functionally straight women)

Despite nominal trans inclusivity (bis), shamelessly attacking, threatening and actively endangering any trans woman who questions them or smth they find important (often by unfairly presenting her as violent or as a threat)

Having absolutely fucking wild and reductive takes about ace ppl, the oppression they face and their place in the queer community

Stating that marriage equality is an assimilationist fight while completely ignoring its direct roots in the horrifying consequences of the AIDS crisis for partners of ppl who died of AIDS

Praising western media creators from the past for queer coding even under censure and in the same breath condemning current non western media creators for being homophobic bc their representation isn't explicit enough

Blaming China for all existing homophobic censoring in western media

Assuming all queer media would be better told by western creators and by western standards

Only out queer ppl get to tell queer stories

Heavily criticising almost all queer media created by women or ppl they see as such (see above points about trans ppl) or involving/starring a significant amount of women for any perceived or real amount of "problematicness", but fawning over and praising and negating criticism of queer media created by and starring mostly or even functionally exclusively men (even when it could be argued that, you know, not involving/seriously sidelining women is a pretty clear example of misogyny which should probably be considered "problematic")

And I'm probably forgetting stuff or there's stuff I have internalised myself and don't recognise as an issue

Like idk but I feel like the takeaway from Hbomberguy and Toddintheshadow's videos should maybe be "be aware of such patterns in your communities bc they definitely exist" and not "this guy is uniquely awful" and I feel like a lot of the discussion I've seen surrounding this has been severely failing at that. Most ppl who've spent any significant amount of time on tumblr prob either have internalised at least one of those thought patterns, have had to de-internalise them, or have had to be extremely vigilant to not internalise them (which is done by, you know, seeking out other sources, which also seemed like an important takeaway from the videos)

inspired by this post, in which Damian does not know what Vine is

Go watch Nimona, it's really good

The most beautiful thing about Drawtectives is that you can choose any combination and you will be right. But no way I'm ignoring a beautiful garb next to York.

Imagine Mac always having done Wukongs eyeliner and now that he’s back, well-

I actually wanted to sleep, nvm, this popped into my mind instead and I couldn’t get rid of it.

This was the max amount of effort I was willing to put into this

But sometimes, you gotta send a message.

While I absolutely love the " Battinson has no idea what to do with a kid beside love it with everything in him, and Alfred sighs in Competent Guardian" trope, I offer you:

Alfred watching Bruce make sure Dick has a curfew, getting involved with school activities like bake sales and and art projects, goes to the doctor regularly, has playdates and actual social life, all Responsible Parent Things he most definitely Did Not Do:

Gaang kids back at it again <3

Pac: [Laughs] Yeah.

Empanada: Drama

Fit: We say "fofoca", Empanada, in Portuguese, yeah. Fofoca, fofoca.

the mines of mandalore: a summary

the one aspect of american culture that i will defend to my last breath is the recent high school tradition of taking the practice SAT, signing the page that says "you're not allowed to tell ANYONE what's on this test even when it's over", and then immediately flooding tumblr with highly specific memes about the content of said test

good old times

Y’know… I don’t think Laios is good at social cues… I don’t blame other characters if they think he’s secretly evil 😭
