The interpretation of Rise Raph as a 'perfect responsible soft boy uwu' is so BORING I'm sorry, Raph is a rowdy adrenaline junkie with anxiety and I won't take this slander any longer

Raph secretly kept an enemy soldier in their actual literal house as a sparring partner. Raph glued his brothers together and dragged them out to fight crime. Raph once asked Leo to punch him in the face to prove he 'takes damage like a boss.' Raph tried to lift a school bus, twice. Raph offered to help his favorite wrestler beat his little brother up. When Leo suggests evacuating Bullhop, Raph says no bc the best defense is a good offense babey. Raph's idea of a 'friendly chat' with April's upstairs neighbor is to put on a black ski mask and go stand menacingly at their door. It takes Raph 10 episodes to conclude that they should MAYBE start training. Raph's plan to get a potentially priceless (and potentially FRAGILE) museum artifact is to punch a car in the middle of a busy street and also cut it in half with his brother still inside.

Raph's never met a problem he wouldn't try to punch in the face and does not know the meaning of the words 'excessive force.' He roughhouses with his bros and drags them out to fight villains and thinks any plan that doesn't involve an all-out brawl is boring and lame. He'll do anything to protect his family from harm and be a hero, but also he eats wet salami off the floor and once single-handedly destroyed a library.

I just adore how, at his core, Rise Raph is such a classic Raph—impulsive and stubborn and caring and passionate. He is a very sweet, strong, honorable guy who has a very powerful sense of personal responsibility... and he is also the exact kind of jock who throws you in the pool at a party without checking if you have your phone in your pocket first.

#rottmnt #rottmnt raph #raph #don't worry then he'll freak out and buy you a new one #anyway! raph rules!!!!! #and i think the movie has made some people interpret him as like the 'responsible mom' character which is a bummer #bc that's really not him at all #like this is not even NEARLY a complete list of raph's shenanigans #he's a hooligan a fool a dumbass (affectionate) #he loves big flashy exciting fights and does not spare a single thought to stealth 90% of the time #he gets distracted on missions taking selfies with pizza pigeons and wrestlers #and gets annoyed in eps like Bug Busters when leo suggests being more cautious #he would die for his brothers but also he's definitely the type to like. walk into their rooms and sit on them for fun #he values responsibility so much but also makes the most batshit decisions ever #and has probably caused the state of new york thousands of dollars in damages #and he's NOT the boys' dad jesus christ #he grows slightly more serious over the course of the series (out of stress :(() #but at his core he's just a kid who loves fighting and being a hero #and i love him so much ok!!!!!!

[uncanny-tranny]

Something I realized (which was obvious to me subconsciously) is that... The family that vehemently didn't accept me when I first came out but now do accept me are still the same family that I am most unwilling to be open about things I feel protective over.

I remember that my dad reacted so poorly, not to my coming out, but to my transition specifically that my therapist was the one to ask if I wanted to put it on my file that I wanted nothing to ever be shared with him about my health after I broke down multiple times due to my anxiety that I would never transition. While there are and were protections for me, I was incredibly fearful at the time because I was a minor, and I was so worried that he would have prevented my transition that I couldn't have said for certain what (if any) lengths he would have gone to to prevent that.

He's grown a lot as a person, and made some commendable strides. But he didn't find out from me when I medically transitioned the second I turned eighteen, and I think that's among the things that truly made him realize the scope of the issue.

I'm not here to guilt trip parents, guardians, or other members responsible for the care of the children or teens or young adults in their care.... but this is a cautionary tale. You aren't saving the people in your care when you do this, you simply reinforce an idea that you will never care for them, never want them as they are, would rather them be shoved away.

When you give people reasons to be secretive, they will behave secretively. When you give people reasons to doubt their safety around you, they will become sneaky, defensive, and withdrawn. When you give people reasons to doubt that you value their life, they will believe that you don't care if they live or not.

#queer #lgbt #lgbtq #ally advice #transphobia #transphobia tw #i always feel the need to preface that i have a rebuilt relationship with my dad specifically... #...but that my experiences with them have served to me in many ways to illustrate... well... what NOT to do if you are in his situation #i do still grieve that my relationship with him looks very scarred and that it took a long time to get to where he is now #but i recognize that in many ways this is a product of the world and culture we live in and that he lived in #in a world he grew up gay was used as a slur. would i expect that trans people would be treated better? #and he was responsible for how he reacted but also... it's nuanced as to why he reacted so poorly #and i want people to AVOID being like he did if they EVER want a decent relationship with the other person #i want this to be a cautionary tale and that my ending is unique. not all of us are even ABLE to repair a relationship that was THAT broken #some of us die trying. some of us never get closure. some of us are in active danger because of those reactions #and that's the more common reality i have found. most other queer people have no-contact with families who pulled the shit my dad had... #...and that's - frankly - a good idea in 99.9% of cases. i will never judge someone for the way they go about dealing with that #i'm just emphasizing that i am unique in the sense that i was able to somewhat repair that

Details that make me FERAL

#aitsf #ai the somnium files #kaname date #mizuki date #AGHHHHH LIKE #I CRY EVERY GODDAMN TIME I THINK OF THEM #ive played the date somnium like. a bit too much 👉👈 #its just. they love each other so much you know 🥺 #and just like. mizukis parents do not give a single shit about her at all #and date cares quite a lot for her and wants to be the Ultimate Dad #but renju specifically asks for him to not do the parent responsibilities since renju wants to do that himself #but he doesnt even bother with most of it so for a long time date is in this shitty position where like #he knows what he should do and he would do anything to make mizuki happy but he doesnt have the permission #and he doesnt think hes a worthy father for mizuki #and then the date somnium is just Mizuki realizing and affirming that date IS her family #he IS what she needs and she wants to stay with him forever #the mizuki route shouldve been the true route ill be petty about this forever 😤 #yeah these clowns are my favorite characters ever im so sorry nirvana did that to yall

[sonknuxadow]

you know i do wonder how many sonic characters actually have living parents. like knuckles is the last of his kind so obviously his parents arent around anymore. both guys who could be considered shadows dads are 100 percent confirmed dead. sonic is canonically an orphan im pretty sure. and on the other side of the coin cream is like the only character in the game cast who has a living parent we actually see onscreen. but what about everyone else i dont think theres a straight answer for any other character. other than rouge's mom being mentioned a couple times i Guess but we dont even know anything about her or if shes still alive just that she existed at some point. are these kids constantly putting themselves in danger because they dont have parents around to stop them or because their parents just dont care

#like what about tails. im guessing he didnt have any sort of family he was attached to if he left to be with sonic so quickly #but that doesnt really mean he didnt have parents at all. maybe he had parents and they just sucked i dont know #what about amy. what if she had parents this whole time we just never see them. #what about blaze. considering shes a princess id assume she was born into that role #but i dont know if her parents are ever actually mentioned #maybe theyre dead and there was no one else to take on their role and thats why blaze has so much responsibility at such a young age? #silver . he was born in a wet cardboard box all alone i cant really imagine him hvaing parents sorry #considering charmy is 6 and living with vector. an adult whos obviously not his biological dad. #i feel like something probably happened to charmys parents #espio i dont really question as much #becuase it feels very common in the sonic universe for teenagers to have more freedom than would be expected in real life #or maybe its not that common and the teenagers we're actually following are just living the most fucked up lives ever. i dotn know #but either way. espio where are your parents buddy. are they still alive. vector where are YOUR parents are they still alive #i dont know if i actually want canon explanations for all this though #because its kinda fun not knowing every detail about every characters life and being able to speculate and insert your headcanons n stuff #to be clear im talking about game canon #i know stuff like archie sonic and the sonic movies and the 90s cartoons will sometimes give characters new family members #or talk about their family situation even if the games dont say anything about that sort of thing

Kazuki returning to the apartment after coming to terms with moving on from his wife's death was just one step away from

All of those fics that have Christopher see Buck and Eddie sharing a bed and automatically understanding that they're dating now are forgetting that key parts of being nine years old include sharing beds with your friends at sleepovers and not fully realizing that your parents have lives outside of you.

#the most realistic response is 'you had a sleepover with Buck and didn't invite me?' #or 'oh hi Buck what's for breakfast' #ESPECIALLY if the fic is set pre Ana #and he has never seen his dad date anyone at all ever #buddie #Christopher Diaz #911

question: how did you discover/get into scooby doo?

this is something i'm always so interested to hear, being that there are few people who don't have at least some small tie to the franchise. whether you would consider it one of your biggest current interests or it's just something nostalgic from your childhood, i'd love to know how you found scooby and what it means to you!

#for me it was my dad! he grew up with the original show and wanted to introduce it to me #so one day when i was maybe? seven?? he came home with the winter wonderdog dvd and we watched it that night #from there we watched every single scooby doo movie that had ever been made #and got the new ones as they came out in subsequent years! #watching a new scooby movie with my dad every weekend are honestly some of my favourite childhood memories #also what's new scooby doo had also started airing on one of the main cartoon channels here in the uk around 2010 #so that's the show i watched the most consistently as a kid #velma was my original favourite of the gang because i looked a lot like her (big glasses/same haircut/etc.) #people would always compare me to her and it genuinely gave me a lot of confidence in my appearance that stays with me to this day #but fred was always my firm second favourite - he made me laugh the most of any character #and took on a deeper meaning to me in my adolescence when i realised i was autistic and strongly identified with his portrayals as such #the characters are probably what's kept me coming back all this time - they've been with me forever #and i love them individually + as a team who support each other with their unique skills and love for one another #but also the wacky adventures and general aesthetic #many people joke about the basic plot being the same every time but it makes my autistic brain happy #i love permanence and consistency baby!!!!! #and the different variations on that same formula always keep things fresh and fun #anyway ramble over #looking forward to hearing you guys' responses! :D #scooby doo #nem misc posts :]

Thinking about Httyd...hot and perhaps too personal take: To me, Httyd was more than anything else a movie about emotional starvation. And Forbidden Friendship was the sweetest, briefest celebration of relief from that.

Afterwards, everybody basically told Hiccup to man up “because that’s just life” and I will never forgive Httyd2 and Httyd3 for that.

#httyd #wherethekiteflies #y'all keep forgetting that Hiccup grew up without a Mom. #In the same day he finds his mother; he loses his Dad. #and the third movie has nothing better to do than to make Hiccup let go of his friend because it's clingy or whatever #to keep the only stable; emotionally available being around that he has ever known. #he's painted as selfish and immature for wanting that. #Neither Astrid; nor Valka; nor Gobber understand Hiccup in the way Toothless did. #Hiccup is simply expected to go without emotional validation or the praise and intimacy he desires for his entire life #because taking responsibility is more important than feeling understood. or whatever. #this boy was granted Forbidden Friendship as the only real hug he ever received... from a dragon who chose him; who stayed with him; #who loved him; who didn't leave or bully or disappoint him. this dragon was the healthiest relationship Hiccup ever had. #and it was judged to be weak. to weaken him as a Chief. when his passion and compassion for Toothless and others were in fact #Hiccup's greatest strengths as Chief. it were those qualities; this sensitivity that made him amazing. #but the plot decided that he needed to become just like Stoick and Astrid and like the Valka who abandoned her dreams & hopes for "reality #how is desiring and needing emotional backup in life void of reality; weak; delusional and too idealistic? #shame on you httyd sequels for never granting this boy what he desired most. and that was honest; unconditional support. #analysis #httyd analysis #rant #hiccup

Bee and puppycat lazy in space I love you so so much it's not even funny

#ramblings of a lunatic #decided to rewatch it again bc the toh finale has had me in a tizzy and while I'm getting better #it's definitely been hard just floating about in fandom space knowing that the show is ending and that in the scenario we do get more of it #in another form ofc #it won't be for a long time yknow? #it's saddening and back in September when i was uh. Very Sad bapc was really there for me #i was out here ardently defending the netflix series' writing bc i genuinely thought it was really good #and i still do #but more than that this show is intensely comforting in a way i can't really place/describe #it's a magical girl show. it's a workplace comedy. 99% of the cast is 25 years or older. its a coming of age story. #it's has pastel and lo-fi art direction. it's cosmic horror. the main character is so caring and yet so selfish and also autistic #and a robot #all of her romantic relationships are intensely weird and frankly are her least interesting dynamics #her most interesting dynamics are with her roomate/pet who's actually a space pirate cursed to look like a marketable plushy #and with her 8 year old landlord who's mom was childhood best friends with her dad making them family in a sense #except they're not really. also they're foils (she's an immature adult he's a kid who tries to be more responsible than he is) #it's filled with intense melancholy and multiple characters suffer from un-talked about depression #it is one of the cutest and brightest shows i have ever seen (in a non-obnoxious or technicolor way) and has an intense air of whimsy #it kinda has a fandom but not a big one despite having an undeniable impact in online animation culture and a bit on online culture overall #I'm not captivated by it in a fandom-y sense but i am obsessed with it. it's like wuthering heights to me #i love this show

Oh yeah, let's just fucking add antisemite to the list of things my dad is I fucking guess.

#“I grew up in new york city around a bunch of jews. so don't even think there's a trick you can play on me I haven't already seen.” #BITCH WHAT #THE WAY HE SAID IT LIKE IT WAS THE MOST NORMAL FUCKING THING EVER #IN RESPONSE TO ME TELLING MY MOM I CAN'T COME OUT FOR BREAKFAST RIGHT AWAY CAUSE HE'S TALKING TO ME #AND HE HAS A TENDENCY OF NOT LETTING PEOPLE LEAVE THE ROOM FOR ANYTHING WHEN HE'S TALKING TO THEM #red rants #I wish my dad would disappear in the forest under mysterious circumstances #tw antisemitism #i guess

[cognitosclowns]

What part do you think Robotus will play in Part 2? He better be fucking ok.

If Rand so much as look in his direction I'm gonna start SWINGING

tbh there's a lot of options??

there's definitely a,, Redemption Arc going on, what with him helping The Gang out in eps 2, 4, 10.

so tbh!! I'm hoping he gets a Big Moral Decision!!

Like he gets the chance to destroy the world and he ends up not taking it bc,, he's gotten attached to humans??? OUGHE <333333

I KNOW they aren't gonna want to speedrun his arc, it's probably gonna be a while until he's Reformed but UGHHHH

<333 THE CLIMAX TO HIS ARC IS GONNA DO THINGS TO MY BRAIN CHEMISTRY I JUST KNOW IT.

OVERALL I think he's gonna be,, mostly intel for the group??

Previously he was constantly looking through security logs + cams so I could definitely see him,,,,, doing some subterfuge to help The Gang undermine Rand!!

In terms of misc stuff? like vague Silly Hopes I Have??? Silly Goofery?

Something homosexual in me Requires an IHNMAIMS reference. Even if it's just a microcosm, like him taking over the Cognito Inc Building and trapping everyone inside.

I don't know why I don't know where I just need this man to have his A.M Hate Monologue Moment. It would either fix him or make him worse.

Brett giving him a nickname. He'll hate it at first and slowly warm up to it,,, and I will burst into tears

overall just. Gang interactions with AB <333333 please it will fix me.

I NEED him and Robo-Reagan to meet

Two Infinitely Intelligent Robots with massive egos teaming up with the goal of taking over the world? oh BABY these two are gonna be at eachothers throat in 5 minutes and it will be everything.

*GRIPS THE WRITERS* LET HIM SEE THE SUN

please I know I talk about this all the time but. He Has Never Seen The Sun Please Let Him See The Sun With His Own Two Eyes Please Please Please Ple

Another thing I've been thinking about is how. Reagan's lab is shown to have a SHIT ton of A.B parts in ep one, all behind glass containers. Enough to make,,,,,, several more of him,,,,

..... LISTEN Rand is absolutely petty enough to. make his Own A.B as like,, a personal enforcer around Cognito. He's absolutely the kind of shitweasel to steal his Daughter's work for his own benefit

TLDR I miss my wife Part 2 cannot come soon enough

#i also remember smb made a post that was like 'Alpha-Beta needs to kidnap Matt Leblanc next season' AND THATS SO FUNNY TO ME THAT. YEAH. #also. give him a breakdown i want it i want it i want it so bad #this kinda falls into the Monologue Moment smdnsmd but. i think it would be very fantastic to see him Unwell. #also. tbh i cant see him teaming with Rand. MSNDMSD he already hates humanity and Rand is like #the SHITTIEST human lmao #i also want a friendship btwn him and gigi. idk it feels like theres a Throughline btwn them #gigi being in charge of media and AB being. Pretty Fucked Up by the internet. #IDK i want them to be the two Responsible Adults who look at the gang from the sidelines like 'dear fuck how have they survived this long' #ALSO place your bets for when part 2 is gonna release #i also really love how IJ gave us both. an Evil Man and an '''Evil Man'''' #MSNDMS like. Rand is properly evil and irredeemable. #but AB is just. like one of those small dogs who think they could kick your ass but actuall just nip at your ankles a bit #MSNDMSD like. he's all Monologues and Shouting but also. absolutely normal. like the most Dude ever. just some guy. #he watches sitcoms and laughs at his own dad jokes hes so nothing MSNDSMDNS AND I LOVE THAT I LOVE THEY GAVE US AN EVIL CHARACTER WHO #IS TRULY JUST SO AVERAGE #inside job #sfw #alpha-beta #robotus alpha-beta #<33333333333333333 mwamwamwamwmamwamwmamwmamwmamwamwmamwma
