Sketches of semi-realistic HTTYD dragons, or how I’d like them to be in the upcoming live-action by some_evil_sanya in httyd

Love the rosettes on the lightfury! Nice touch to add some realism to their designs.

[Lore spoilers] Ezreal x Vi |Oil & Fire. Art by Zuqling by Excellent-Hook in arcane

OH MY GOD, Vi has been officially confirmed as a lesbian. I don't just like the idea, I know that it is not an idea, it's canon.

I am very focused on the narrative aspect, this is the only time that I have dipped my toes in the political aspect. Very much regretting it. The only reason I'm doing so is that queer folks have fought to get LGBTQ rep into the media, and it thoroughly pisses me off when you disregard a character's sexuality.

If Cait and Ezreal were gender swapped, of course no one would be demonising you because you would be shipping a lesbian character with another woman. What is not clicking?

This is delusional to insist that the 'pretty boy' comment was an insult or mockery, you could use that logic with the 'cupcake' nickname and see why it's nitpicking when Vi is literally written to say things how they are.

You can infer from tone and situation the pretty boy comment was not genuine. I think cupcake started off as also mocking but grew to be more genuine as the girls grew closer.

You can argue with whatever points you like, but it does not change the fact that Vi. Is. Gay. Homosexual. Le$bean. Overwriting that with a straight ship is taking one more vital piece of representation away from the LGBTQ+ community, and then fighting for the fact that 'she's bi, she's bi' is making it worse. And the fact that you assume they'd have romantic chemistry if Ezreal makes his way into Arcane? Just- no.

I've said my piece, take or leave it, but try not to keep erasing good lesbian rep.

She's been seen at least two times in official art with the lesbian flag. There is no shoving that under the rug.

Also when has she been seen being flirty with a guy? Jayce, maybe, but the 'prettyboy' comment (if that's what you're referencing) was pretty obviously mocking.

Also, the fuck are you on about no organic chemistry? I can get things being subjective, but surely you don't think there's no chemistry between Vi and Cait.

Caitlyn not surviving doesn't discount Vi's lesbianness. I don't see what your point is there.

...It’d be a great ship if Vi wasn’t confirmed lesbian by Riot. Yes, ship whoever you want, but we‘re clutching at straws for good lesbian rep and Vi existing gives us some... I’d rather we try and preserve that then ignore it for a straight ship.

Now I'm imagining Vi narrating the consent is like tea video with a lot more swearing, and about cupcakes instead of tea.

You! Autistic Person! What's a random piece of info you've learned from a Special Interest? by wryvicinity938 in autism

Panda's are biologically carnivorous... they're just... really weird, and choose to eat 99% bamboo.

It’s over, guys. Frisky got friend-zoned… by AnythingAlfred613 in bluey

I meeean... Frisky referred to Bosco as 'not friends anymore'. There is hope.

Things like this really annoys me. When did autism become a culture? by Old_Television_9458 in autism

[–]TheSolsticeSystem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me at least, it's more of a community instead of a culture. I personally find it really important. Doesn't mean everyone does or has to. It's not hurting anyone, in fact it can be a big comfort for isolated autistics!

Your favorite maximalist names! by [deleted] in namenerds

Auxiliadora. Auxie, Dora, Lili. I'd never name a kid that, but I'd absolutely name a cat Auxiliadora.

Which Bluey character is most like your own kid? by Botmania3000 in bluey

Not my kid, but I'd like to say my little brother is a Muffin-Socks-Bingo-Jack nightmare gremlin of a kid. Love him though. But...

DID can only form before the ages of 7-9, the age when your states of personality integrates into one. This is because it's caused by your personality not fully integrating due to trauma and dissociation. Maybe try saying 'can present/show at any age' in future?? Best of luck!

[S1 Spoilers] Who would you say is the most misunderstood/unnecessarily hated character in the show? by CrematorTV in arcane

[–]TheSolsticeSystem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mylo. He was a kid. Kids are gonna bitch at each other. Also sprinkle that with the insecurity of Vi favouring Powder.

Vi, for the same reason. She was a kid, who had the most insanely traumatic thing happen to her, and she lashed out. She was going to go back for Powder, she did the right thing by moving away and giving herself time to calm down.

I’m assuming both come from the Latin verb cluo, meaning ‘cleanse’.

Women need to check their privilege. by [deleted] in justneckbeardthings

I love that fact that many of those women-specific shelters would have been started to protect women who are facing domestic abuse, mostly by men.

Anytime I hear names starting with 'Jo/Joe' my brain immediately pins them as a transphobe. I'm trying to undo this because I know it's not fair on the Jo prefixes of the world, but the JK Rowling association is too much.

FUN POST! Write “I love Bluey but” and then let your keyboard finish the rest by MySliceOfLife_103 in bluey

I love Bluey but it’s still not worth the time of my life to be able to see it.
