I got my Oban Star Racers Collector's Edition Blu-ray!!! I backed the kickstarter ages ago and got the email that the US distribution center received the packages, but totally forgot that that meant I would actually be receiving the package soon. Came home this weekend to a lovely surprise. Y'all have to see how cool this set is.
Tumblr media
All the stuff that came with the collector's edition! AND it was numbered!

And the medal and sticker??? So, so, so cool.

I’m actually not okay about Oban Star Racers. I just finished my second rewatch of it and I have some feelings. Sappy rambling below with spoilers
I don’t know why it hit me this hard. I’ve seen Oban before, I knew how it ended and everything. I felt so sad for Jordan. I didn’t like Aika this time around. I’m happy for Molly. I wanted to know what Rick decided to do with his life. I’m nervous that Jordan won’t be coming back in the potential sequel series.
Honesty Jordan messed me up this rewatch. I thought he was cute and endearing, even if he was a little cringe, but then I started to get the feeling that he was only put in the show to satisfy the networks need for a boy protagonist. So I thought, okay that may be the case, actually it totally is the case. For the most part Jordan could be removed completely and nothing major would change. That made me sad, because I really liked him on this rewatch, I thought he was cute. It was like watching a person be destined to fail and still rooting for them anyways. Then, when the finale happened, I realized my biggest critic I had of the writing the first time I watched the show was completely wrong. See, I thought Jordan was severely underdeveloped and his motive for wanting to become the avatar came out of nowhere, but that’s only if you take what he says to Molly at face value, which I did. This time around, I realized that, no, he just said that to Molly to make her feel better. He literally sacrificed his whole human life to protect the girl he likes and knows she doesn’t feel the same way AND AFTER HE MAKES THE SACRIFICE HE STILL PROTECTS HER FEELINGS AND DOESN’T DEMAND ANYTHING FROM HER IN RETURN. Like, that is the most selfless act of love, kindness, respect, care literally ever and it really crushed me this time around when I realized that. AND HE CRIES. The last shot of him is him CRYING. I CAN’T. It hurt me so much. He will live so many lifetimes, far beyond what Molly and anyone he’s ever known ever will, based on a decision to save someone who never reciprocated the same kind of feelings that he did. Literally the best I love you fiction cartoon character Jordan.
AND I NEVER REALIZED THAT JORDAN’S GRANDPA ACTUALLY SHOWED UP IN THE SERIES
god I love this show so much

it is totally okay to be hurt and tired and fed up with the american schooling system but i need you to understand that we need to be better about loudly and routinely defending public education.
yes, many teachers suck, many schools utterly suck. i also got bullied and was absolutely not given the right support for my needs. i am not defending public education because it was kind to me. i am defending it because it needs to exist.
right-wing republicans do not want an educated population. they want kids to be homeschooled or in private school. there is a huge religious undertone to this.
the most common argument is that despite high costs, the "result" is not "good" enough. they point to failing schools as proof that public education is just never going to work out. there will be arguments made here that you actually agree with: that teachers can be bullies, that we taught online for 2 years and still charged the same amount of tuition, that we have no recourse for students to actually have agency or a voice, and that schools are now unsafe for kids due to risk of illness and gun violence.
these are all placing the blame in a fraudulent way, one intended to get your parents to homeschool you. the less kids in a school, the less federally-awarded funding for that school, the less any school succeeds. they will not mention the fact it is their legislation that takes away important funding opportunities, that teachers are living at or below the poverty line, that buildings are not kept up to code, that administration is overpaid and forces specific curriculums, that corporations like (my personal enemy) Pearson Education control certain classroom goals because teachers can't afford other options. they pretend to be ignorant of the gun violence and say "oh just get a gun" - but these are the same people who will be sending their child to a private school with a bulletproof backpack. they don't care if your kid dies, though. they "don't believe" in covid, but they did get their kid vaccinated, because of course they did.
it is a closed loop. conservative parents hear the fearmongering and remove children from the system. frequently these parents are also deeply religious. the kids are raised without access to other media & learn to parrot their parents. you have now created a new generation of conservatives. additionally, one of the parents/caregivers must stay home and homeschool the children, usually for free. i will give you 1 guess which parent tends to stay home to homeschool the children. these parents are encouraged to have many, many children. those children are most likely not getting access to safe sex ed.
we might laugh at fox news suggesting teachers are forcing children to use kitty litter but: first of all, there is kitty litter in the classroom. it's part of an emergency kit in case children are locked in due to a shooter. so that's fucking dystopian, and the fact they've completely reimagined the scenario to somehow make the teachers look bad when it's instead a fucking huge symbol of our failure as a country to protect our children.... it feels a little intentional.
secondly: don't just dismiss the situation. because, yeah, obviously, no teacher is encouraging kids to be a catboy. but the actual undertone that fox news is trying to sew is an outright distrust of teachers and of public education. they rely on the dehumanization of trans people as a common touchstone to hide the fact they're pushing two agendas at once. (which is ironic. because the thing they accuse teachers of. is pushing. an agenda.)
whenever someone tells you they want you to read less, you should be suspicious of that. when someone tries to separate you and your education, you should be suspicious of that. i don't even like incel rhetoric nor would i want my kids exposed to it - but i would not take away my child's (age-appropriate) access to the internet. i would just provide more educational materials, not less. the difference here is that i believe we can resolve ignorance with knowledge; whereas conservatives believe that ignorance is bliss.
they misappropriate funding and demonize teachers. they pull the same trick each time - the same thing we are seeing with anti-trans rhetoric. they do not want you to have access to safe sex ed, so they act horrified, claim sex ed teaches you how to thrust deep, claim that we have no idea what "age-appropriate" means. since the mid-nineties, the united states has spent at least 2 billion dollars on abstinence-only education, even though to quote the above link: "a preponderance of studies has found no effect of abstinence education at reducing adolescent pregnancy". conservatives want you to think less of any person struggling with addiction so they can continue their racist "war on drugs", so they spend up to $750 million dollars a year on the DARE program which has absolutely no effect. acting like teachers "must" be "grooming" children is just the same thing - so they can demand that funding either goes to their causes or the funding doesn't "exist" ("i'm not paying for our kids to learn that thing!")
and they want you to feel uncaring about this. they are aware that you will hate some parts of your school experience. pretty much everyone does. they want to lean into the parts that you hate so that you don't put up a fight about it when they take it away for not being "good enough."
i know i maybe sound like a conspiracy theorist. but truly. truly. it is beneficial for conservatives to reduce your faith in the american public schooling system.
one of the explicitly stated campaign promises of the conservative party: to axe the Department of Education in 2024.
i know we are all tired and burnt out and there is so much else wrong with their entire platform. but maybe just - pay attention to this one.
