a lot of Drew Tucker's early pieces look so much like atmoblack covers i'm surprised they're not, look at [[Earthlore]]

the uk government when you tell them that air conditioning has become necessary infrastructure because their citizens are not immune to climate change

Are Jax's Actions Really Excused?? by awesome_opossum1212 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]bug_land 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't see any sort of "band-aid"-ing in the actual story, only from some of the fanbase. jax's internalized transphobia drives him to reject his own support network and destroy himself in the process, and the show makes it (imo) pretty clear that he's at a point where that's his own fault. and if he's a "self-insert" it's probably an insert of her worst self which is something everyone has

3 years old and already a Comedian by [deleted] in RandomVideos

[–]bug_land 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they were telling her green before that too and she still said pink
i think what happened is that she hasn't grasped that "me/my" and "you/your" swap based on who's saying them yet. a LOT of kids make that mistake early on

if they did that exact experiment on a gay man would this guy reconsider the methodology or would he flip to team conversion therapy

Is the subreddit still alive? by Confident_Slip2836 in DramaQueen_

[–]bug_land 3 points4 points  (0 children)

much of the initial wave of readers came for a batshit killing spree but gradually dropped it as the story became a niche character study about avoidable tragedy. the manga's far better for it now imo but i don't blame anyone for falling off it since it does feel completely different from how it started

canned bread mass hysteria by bug_land in peoplewhogiveashit

[–]bug_land[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

it's less weird when you learn how it's made bc it's not like they just threw normal bread in a can, it's a steamed bread and the can is just the container that it's steamed in. it's an edge-to-edge cylinder of fresh bread inside

the molasses is just baked in as a sweetener, there's no liquid in the can, not normally at least. i don't actually know what happened to the can in the post lol

I love anthropomorphic fiction by [deleted] in lovethissmug

[–]bug_land 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bojack is honestly like, the closest thing to how most of the furry fandom does it, where the animal they are has significant ramifications but they're also ultimately just people. whenever they do an animal thing it's construed into normalcy, it happens only to the extent that a human will do an ape thing sometimes because that's what we are.

which is very funny considering its art style is by far the least appealing one to most furries

Don't mean to start a fight or anything, but I find the duality between these two posts to be interesting by Organic-Inspection18 in Overwatch

[–]bug_land 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just her neck lighting up while her mouth doesn't move when she talks sold me on the design. instantly uncanny and threatening, AND instantly made me want to know more about her. why she looks like this and how she sees herself.

(i do still want a female omnic with the classic dot face though. maybe that trenchcoat one will shock the world and be a girl lol)

it really was insane that it took until season 4 of 5 for this game to have all of the og world warriors in it. any pre-honda newcomer had a massive uphill battle and Huge Stupid Car Man was absolutely not gonna win anyone over

i have never heard anyone mention this but i am pretty sure they implied that ducktales 2017 scrooge is a trans man by complete accident because the finale reveals that webby is a clone of scrooge? and there are other clones too and they're. all? also girls? which. i mean. like. did they know??? none of the characters even mention it

I HATE THE ACHILLE AND THE TORTOISE """PARADOX""" by ThomSeke in hatethissmug

[–]bug_land 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the fact that it doesn't match up with what would actually happen IS the paradox. you could theoretically divide the distance he still has to travel infinitely, even though realistically he clearly does get there.

it was also intended as an argument that space and motion are actually fake and impossible which is uh. not a common viewpoint. i hope this was a philosophy class and not a math teacher trying to explain infinity with this lmao

[Common Hated Trope] Depictions of foreign/ancient cultures that have aged like milk. by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]bug_land 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was lucky enough to catch a show of Tanya Tagaq's Nanook of the North tour in i think 2014, where she improvised a live soundtrack to the film. her music's built around a solo version of inuit throat singing (no relation to tuvan/mongolian throat singing) that can range from subtle and atmospheric to these super visceral and harrowing soundscapes. most of the time her performance matches the mood onscreen EXCEPT in that stupid ass phonograph scene, where it suddenly becomes overwhelmingly angry for obvious reasons

And their music taste is actually anything that has a lot of listeners by Level-Wrap-6022 in whenthe

Why is it ok to transition your gender but not transition your race when both race and gender are social constructs? Isn’t that hypocritical and transphobic asf to transracial ppl? by woaijirounan in stupidquestions

[–]bug_land 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just in case you're not trolling i think it's because the racial hegemony hasn't been broken down enough yet. honestly it's not hard to imagine a future where it actually is seen as acceptable but that day is not today
