You guys know which tv representation that’s forcing me to say “check my privilege”? Characters that sign.
TBH, it’s annoying to me when there’s a scene that’s too long depicting sign language. It’s a constant struggle for me and I have to remind myself this isn’t for me. It isn’t about me. We all have room to grow.

Percy’s face when Sally mentioned Grover playing a role in getting him kicked out of school…
Tumblr media
The way his face scrunches up really tight before relaxing? That’s anger.
But not the kind of anger we see in him in the last episode.
This is the kind of anger that makes you cry. The kind that’s underpinned by embarrassment and hurt and feeling like you’ve been treated unfairly.
Percy knows he didn’t push Nancy into the fountain and he thought that, if anyone would have his back, it was going to be Grover. And then he didn’t. And it’s unfair to Percy. It’s Wrong. Because no one believes him, apparently not even his best friend.
And the way he closes his eyes and takes a really deep breath? That’s a tactic that’s literally recommended to stop yourself from crying when you’re angry. It allows your body to “catch up” with your mind.
What do you wanna bet that Percy learned that from a school counselor?

I really need to stress how groundbreaking Martha Jones literally is. She made her mark as the first official onscreen Black Doctor Who companion, and quite literally paved the way for future Black and other companions of colour to star on the show, like Bill Potts, Yasmin Khan, and Ryan Sinclair. And these characters would also make Doctor Who history in their own ways with Bill being the first onscreen Black lesbian companion, Yasmin being the first onscreen South Asian companion, and Ryan being the first onscreen Black companion with a disability.
Marth Jones' power? Unparalleled.

I like how in this era of excellent queer TV to replace the SuperWhoLock era, each light hearted comedy show of the trio has a dark queer mirror. Black Sails is to Our Flag Means Death, as Interview With The Vampire is to What We Do In The Shadows, just as The Sandman is to Good Omens.
I do find it odd how in each pairing its the supposed light hearted comedy show that has emotionally devastated its audience so far though...

There’s an underlying bitterness in Percy’s tone in this scene, despite the fact that he’s making a “joke,” that couples with the way he doesn’t look at his mom while he says it but kind of just stares distantly. And also the way his eyebrows go up and down in a quick, wry — and almost judgmental, even — way.
This one singular line hit me so hard as a neurodivergent person because it’s all you need to see the way that Percy feels about his own inability to do “basic” things, like pay attention. He’s making a joke that’s also a dig at himself for “screwing up” in some way and it felt so relatable.
And the fact that it’s basically setting up him the next scene when he tells his mom that he thinks there’s something “broken” in his brain?
It hurt in all the best ways that seeing an accurate representation of yourself in a series that’s been your comfort series since the moment you picked it up 🥲

Representation matters. #StarringJohnCho posters by William Yu started in 2016. This began a discussion about Asian Americans in leading roles in Hollywood, which inspired others to create their own stories and will continue to inspire future generations.

y'all better start watching heartbreak high (2022) on netflix it has indigenous rep, autistic rep, non-binary rep, and representation for so many sexualities. it's not perfect but is such an amazing step in australian media and was genuinely a great teen drama to watch.
the soundtrack was SPECTACULAR and i was so !! at the use of just general australian language like having someone say "you're cooked" on a netflix show i- like it never felt cringe it just felt real lmao

I would just like to say I appreciate media taking on the whole ‘old gay’ thing because, yes, representation of queer youth is important but we often forget that there are also queer people older than the age of 25. With the recent movies/shows (OFMD, Good Omens, The Last of Us, Knives out, Glass onion etc.) there’s been a lot of rep for older queer people and I think that’s just swell :)
Edited:
Someone commented that I forgot B99 and I wholeheartedly agree. Holt and Kevin are amazing rep.
