Stop Defending Ableists Challenge (Level: Impossible)
So the other day I made a post listing all the ableist things Jacob Richmond has included in Legoland and Ride the Cyclone.
And the response was abysmal - the amount of "well actually..." kind of responses I got was disgusting and I took down the post because I find it counterproductive to argue with teenagers on the internet. However, I stand by the belief that if you think you are old enough to post publicly on the internet, you are old enough to be held accountable for what you post.
But I think what I had to say was quite important, so I am going to reword it here.
TW here for the discussion of ableism and ableist slurs (they are all censored)
There is ZERO (0) justification for the use of THREE (3) ableist slurs across both works. I don't fucking care if it was the 2000's. The ADA predates both shows and disability activism had existed for decades before that (as yannick very kindly reminded me). So no, it was not ok for Richmond to use those slurs in his works, regardless of the time period. Because there is nothing "correct" (politically, or otherwise) about ableism.
And before you say "Oh, but it was the character who said it, not the writer..."
CHARACTERS ARE NOT SENTIENT BEINGS! They are not created in a vacuum. Their thoughts and actions are often a reflection of the author's own beliefs and morals.
It was not Ocean who decided to use the word cr*pple. It was Jacob Richmond who decided to use it. Same with the r word and sp*z in Legoland. It wasn't Penny and Ezra who decided to use those words, it was Jacob Richmond. Because each character's actions are dictated by the decisions that the author makes for that character. And in this case, the author decided to be an ableist asshole.
Yes, characters can be assholes. They can be complex and nuanced beings. But there are better ways to portray such experiences than being violently ableist (i.e.: without using slurs). And why does the ableist character get complexity and nuance, but the disabled character is simply the sad, disabled kid, with not much else in his personality until he magically becomes abled bodied. Like we deserve nuance and complexity as well, people!
In a 2022 interview with Curtain Call Bway (here), when asked who his favourite character to write was, Richmond responds with the following:
Ocean is definitely my favorite character to write because it’s based on certain people I’ve met and certain aspects of myself too.
Like he literally admits it himself, that his decisions when writing an ableist character were based off aspects of his own personality.
The reality is, disability has never been more than a comedic plot point to Richmond. He has never cared about portraying a realistic disabled experience. He has never cared about disabled people.
And the cherry on top is that his response to yannick-robin being hate-crimed was to rewrite Ricky so that he could be played by an abled and therefore production teams wouldn't have to give a shit about ensuring their spaces are safe and accessible for disabled performers. If he actually cared about disabled people and properly representing our experiences, he would have worked with a disability consultant and fixed the issues within the show. Instead, he doubles down and causes even more harm.
To add insult to injury, he then licensed that script to Sarah Rasmussen and her team of ableist cronies for the DC production. Because him choosing to continue working with Rasmussen and her team just shows that he shares the same ableist values as the McCarter/Arena team.
So by saying that "its the character, not the author", you are defending Richmond and his violent ableism. You are attempting to justify the harm he has done and CONTINUES TO DO to disabled people. YOU. ARE. A. PART. OF. THE. PROBLEM.
Ride the Cyclone and Legoland (in ALL its forms and versions) contains so much ableist violence. This violence has traumatised REAL PEOPLE, but yannick, myself, and other people speaking out are the ones ruining the vibe by calling it out? Be fucking for real people.
Now if only my university papers were this thorough...

Ride the Cyclone Google Drive / Archive
okay i can't remember if i ever posted this on tumblr or not but i was just uploading a reddit post about it and figured that posting it again wouldn't hurt so:
"A while ago I created what is (as far as I know) probably the biggest archive of Ride the Cyclone content. This includes recordings, clips & photos from as many productions as possible (as well as cast lists, some scripts, and a calendar of all known RTC productions).
You can access a google doc overview of the content with this link, and you can access the archive here.
I've already added as many bootlegs as I have, but in terms of photo/video archiving, I'm only up to around March 2023 productions (videos are even further behind as I started archiving video content quite a while after starting the original archive), since it can take a lot of work to research & gather photos. Nevertheless, I hope this can be a useful resource!
(It also includes some content from Legoland)"

RIDE THE CYCLONE AU IDEA!
All the characters are replaced with the characters adjacent to or similar to them!
Astrid would be the Ocean stand-in since they're cousins.
I guess Noel would still be Noel bc there's no adjacent/similar character to him-
Corey would be the Mischa stand-in of course.
Hank would be the Ricky stand-in.
Ezra would be the Jane Doe stand-in.
Either Constance's unnamed little brother, Trishna, or Tammy from LEGOLAND would be the Constance stand-in.
One of Virgil's kids would be the Virgil stand-in.
And the genderbent Karnak mentioned in one of the versions scripts, Cassandra, would be the Karnak stand-in!

I wish the community acknowledge that Penny canonically has bipolar disorder. Like, it's not through word of god or implied, it's an actual detail.
I'll be going into full detail on why it matters. Legoland spoilers under the cut!
To make things clear, it's alright if you only learned about Legoland through its summary or heard it from other people, or you don't follow Legoland at all and have your own interpretation of Penny. I just want you to know that if you're going to write the Sad, Soggy Creature that is Legoland Penny Lamb, her having bipolar disorder should be taken into account.
It matters because I see Ezra's ADHD being acknowledged and accepted; which makes things a little bit iffy when I don't see the same acknowledgement for Penny's bipolar. When I see discussion of her being neurodivergent, I never saw anyone say that she's bipolar.
Now, I'm not accusing anyone of bipolar erasure. I don't blame you if you didn't know, or forgot! It's a small detail that's dropped in an almost 9k word book, and is never brought up again.
But that's why I'm making this post. Not only because that there's representation of a stigmatized disorder, but because it's important to understanding Penny as a character. It's the small bit of logic that helps tie the chaos of Legoland together. It contextualizes her actions and behavior.
I don't have bipolar, so I cannot judge the justification of the representation. What I can say though is that Penny's not depicted as erratic, violent troublemaker. She's a lonely, struggling high schooler that attracts the trouble, not cause them. Especially that she's only hostile when provoked. And the only time she actually harmed someone? She regretted it.
Which says a lot since this script was written around 2004-2006; not exactly a good time when it comes to mental health representation.
To set the foundation, let's talk a bit about bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows. There's several types of bipolar disorder but for brevity we'll elaborate on the first two types: Bipolar I and Bipolar II.
Bipolar I is characterized by manic and depressive episodes, and Bipolar II is characterized by hypomanic and depressive episodes.
What makes hypomania different from mania is that it's milder. It doesn't mean Bipolar II is the 'milder version of bipolar' across the board—since depressive episodes are commonly reported to be worse in II—it just means they don't get psychotic symptoms or be hospitalized.
Mania is bad. That's all I can say, it's just bad. Yes, you feel euphoric and on top of the world, but you'll be more impulsive, irritable, and have racing thoughts. There's a lot more to it, but generally, bipolar disorder is called a disorder for a reason.
So how does this apply to Penny? Well, she experiences mania, not hypomania, so I'm going to say that she experiences Bipolar I.
In fact, I could go ahead and say that the entire Johnny Moon thing was a manic episode in and of itself. Even before the JK-47 trip, Penny experienced mania after finding out about SevenUp.
So let's go through the symptoms one by one:
Decreased need for sleep
The last one is included, not just because she couldn't sleep when she needed to take a nap, but because they really went on the trip for 7 days, which is what manic episodes at least take.
Elevated or expansive mood
Penny experiences the euphoric feeling that is common in mania, having heightened energy and being intensely excited. Especially that she would come out of a depressive episode before ramming into a manic one.
Let's also not forget that she wrote a letter to Johnny 3,567 times.
Irritability, hostility, or aggression
I don't know what happened here either.
Impulsive risk behaviors
Dropped everything to go to another country just to talk to someone.
It's worth to mention that she did drug trafficking, which was what sent her to probation.
Talking excessively
This entire monologue showcases other symptoms of mania, like racing thoughts (she went through six different topics after mentioning Uranium), pressured speech (she talked fast), and being easily distracted (Penny darling I'm sorry but your speech was not coherent in the slightest)
The symptoms Grandiosity and Delusions are up in the air, mostly cause I'm not sure if the only example I have for the two counts. I think it's delusional to try to change a celebrity by talking to them, and calling herself Johnny's 'greatest fan', but that's it. I'm sure Penny experiences those two to a degree.
Alright, Penny experiences mania. So let's go to the other side of the spectrum; does she experience depressive episodes?
While there's not a lot of explicit information, there are stuff that alludes to her experiencing depressive episodes. She said she felt 'half-dead' for a year after receiving Johnny's letter, which screams 'depression' to me.
Also there's this entire block.
It's important to note that she was taking Paxil, which has potential negative side-effects for people with bipolar including increased suicidality in teens. Not the best medication for her disorder. (It does take trial and error for people with bipolar to find the correct medication.)
It's wonderful because Penny's episodes are actually episodes, it's not the terrible inaccurate depiction of bipolar as being just 'mood swings'. She goes through a manic and depressive episode for more than a day.
Besides, her mania isn't just 'happy' or just having high energy. It changes her judgement, activity and everything, which is important to represent in characters with bipolar disorder as people will have this simplified notion of thinking bipolar is just 'feeling happy then sad then happy again'.
So, our darling canonically has bipolar disorder that is kind of a bit glossed over in the community and is never brought up. So, what's next?
Well, I want to see people making Penny both bipolar and autistic. I want to see stories or headcanons of the choir trying to help with her manic or depressive episodes. I want to see a story of Jane following along with the intoxicating feeling of manic euphoria before finding out that she's feeling more irritable and overwhelmed. I want to see her get therapy and correct medication, goddamnit.
Other than how it's a goldmine of unexplored fancontent that should be dug up, it's also representation for a stigmatized disorder.
