Ok so watched Quackity’s vod from today. It was a punch to the gut. About ten different times. “Orita no. Orita no.” “I need you to leave. I need you to leave this general area. Please.” Him going to Slimecicle’s base with TNT and leaving without placing a single one. He fell asleep inside Tilìn’s grave, curled up next to their dead body. God. Slimecicle was righteous anger. This just hurt. “Y te lo dejaste. Y te lo dejaste.” He just bulldozes through any suggestion that Tilìn is dead, then as soon as it sinks in. Just. It’s like every bit of life left him. He doesn’t even have the energy for revenge. Just total calm. Everything’s shut down. Fuck. That made me cry. Not just tear up. That made me cry.

I think I'm in shock about Paper Girls. Like I feel like I'm gonna throw up.
Same. There are so many layers to how I feel about it. Furious, to start. It was SO well-received, by critics and fans alike; the problem was marketing. The Twitter tag is full of people who didn’t even realize it was a show until it was cancelled. Hell, I didn’t know it was happening until a trailer hit my dash by chance like a month before it dropped. Apart from the SDCC panel (which, let’s be honest, I’m the right kind of nerd to have noticed, but lots of viewers wouldn’t have known about), it got very little promotion. Which like. Bro. It’s been out less than 50 days. Fifty days to give a first season before you take it out back and shoot it? That’s madness. I said it in my other post, and I’ll say it again: giving a show 3 weeks to hit (and having sky-high perimeters for what “counts”) is a one-way ticket to killing art. It gives no time for growth, for it to find its audience. It kills me how little streaming cares for shows.
Then there’s just the devastation of having this gorgeous, character-driven show with Chinese, Black, Jewish lesbian, and masc lesbian rep, and KNOWING they had a plan. There was so much love in every frame. These girls knew their characters backwards and forwards. They were so lived-in, so authentic. And the fact that Amazon couldn’t bother giving them even just two seasons (which I do believe would have been enough to get the whole story out, if they knew they had only that)? After a competitive bidding war to get the rights in the first place?? Fuck that noise.
Genuinely, I am on my knees for Legendary to successfully sell it to another distributor. It’s a good sign that they instantly got the rights back and announced they were shopping it, but they shouldn’t have had to. If you option the rights to a pre-existing IP, you ought to believe in it enough to let it run a minimum of two seasons. This show is a fucking gem. It’s beloved. It’s just that it got drowned by lack of marketing, another “similar audience” show dropping immediately after (and don’t get me started on how it feels like they pit a historical queer sports show against a coming of age time travel show—two completely different genres that shouldn’t HAVE to compete), and Amazon giving all their money and attention to their New Big Thing. It deserves so much better. I’m so. So upset about this.

So I haven’t really said anything about this but just wanted to let all my mutuals and friends know that things are not going good right now. My sweet baby boy Grisly is in heart failure and is getting worse every day. It’s extremely draining and heartbreaking watching the little creature you’ve had since you were 19, who’s been there with you every step of the way in your life, die right before your eyes.
He was a relatively healthy senior dog just a month ago and now he’s declining rapidly. There are good days and bad days, and I’m just trying to make it through everyday without a panic attack. Every little change in his condition is torment. 😔 Truly, I don’t think I’ve known grief until this, anticipatory grief is no fucking joke.
So I’m sorry I’m extra quiet 🖤 thats just how I deal with things and I’ll hopefully feel up to socializing soon.
