 I think the reason we see so much 80′s nostalgia is just because new ideas were valued so much more. New things feel special and the pop culture landscape of the 80′s was absolutely packed with ideas so new it still feels hard for me to fully appreciate, and I was there! Imagine Super Mario being so new people were calling it “INSANE!” and joking that it was “ON DRUGS” because a plumber ran around jumping on turtles. Imagine people being wowed by the idea of both supernatural elements and sci-fi technology in the same franchise: that’s what Ghostbusters normalized and that too was so unusual at one time it was “crazy!!!” to reviewers. Toys that transform between robots and cars??? UNBELIEVABLE. Kids and adults couldn’t believe that a toy could possibly have moving parts that intricate and not cost an entire paycheck.

Imagine a world where even fucking *Garfield* is new. Garfield! Not just new but seen as almost EDGY for his sarcastic personality! People weren’t used to a cartoon cat smugly insulting his owner! That’s why he made a million zillion dollars, because people thought that was the freshest most hilarious shit in Sunday strips at one time!

You know why there’s a billion takes on a zombie apocalypse now? Because, while the concept goes back to the 60′s, the broader public had never considered the doomsday horror potential of a mass zombie outbreak scenario or the “survival fantasy” aspects until 1978′s “Dawn of the Dead.” Gremlins was the first horror-comedy about nasty little creatures running amok. Films like “Child’s Play” and “Nightmare on Elm Street” were some of the first mainstream cases of a wisecracking horror villain. E.T. was the first successful fantasy science fiction drama about child protagonists befriending a benevolent paranormal entity. 1979′s “Alien” on the other hand successfully wrung tense psychological horror from the concept of a “space monster” just when most audiences were dismissing the idea as corny and juvenile. The “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” though intended as parody characters, were the first mainstream case of anthropomorphic animals marketed as “cool” action heroes instead of completely jokey characters like “Mighty Mouse.” Nobody had ever seen a dark puppet fantasy like Labyrinth before. Nobody had ever seen anything like the Cenobites before. Little Shop of Horrors was adapted to a Broadway musical in 1982 and was such a hit they got the Rick Moranis film into theaters only four years later.

The 80′s feel like the last decade with such a ratio of new, novel concepts and bold decisions that actually took off to just endless remakes, sequels and homages. Shit came out in the 80′s that invented whole subgenres, character archetypes and everyday household concepts everybody just takes as a given now. This sort of slowed down over the course of the 90′s, and then Pokemon was possibly one of the last things that was like mind-blowingly world-changingly “different” in the eyes of the most audiences. Now I have a hard time thinking of any entertainment media from over the last 22 years that made half that big a difference, and even less over the last 10. :(

PRIDE MONTH!!!!!’🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Happy Pride!

I'm not ready. I don't think I'll ever be ready to tell my favorite ever fictional character goodbye. And you know what? I'm okay with that. This show, this beautiful, beautiful show, ends tonight. But the world of The Owl House, the characters and the places and the love we have for them? They'll live on. They will carry on as long as the fandom does, and we're a persistent bunch. But regardless, we still have to say goodbye to the show itself tonight. A show that didn't get the room it deserved to tell the whole story. But what we got with this show, what we've seen and experienced from it and loved about it, those are still just as beautiful as if it has gotten its full time. No, I'm still not ready to say goodbye to The Owl House. But, as Lemony Snicket wrote at the end of A Series of Unfortunate Events, "If we wait until we're ready, we'll be waiting for the rest of our lives." So it'll have to happen anyways. But, such is life.

Ah, what the hell. I'm not saying goodbye. I'll keep rewatching and loving my favorite show, even though Disney isn't putting out any more of its story. I'll never say goodbye, because it will always be with me. With us.

Love this show!

One crazy theory I have about Carmen’s parents are that her mother *cough*CookieBroker*cough* is the original Carmen Sandiego, nothing new, I know, and her dad, Dexter Wolfe, is Waldo. He took the chance to completely change his name when he joined VILE and ditched his red outfit for something that would actually blend in. What are your thoughts?

YES!!!! Thank you!!!! This is the kind of response I was hoping for!!!! Duren has the QUEENS 👸!!!!! AND I LOVE THEM!!!!!

Hey what do you think about the bury your gays trope?

they didnt bait us at all and theres gonna be actual alive lgbt later on the series!!! it was also handled ok and showing gay moms queens showing them kiss is very important in kids show and the kiss made me so happy!

GODS YES!!!! I LOVED Voltron, but my mental health cannot take a Voltron Fandom 2.0!!! Please don’t let it come to that!!!! Please let the cast and crew make good choices!!!!⚔️⚔️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 Please, as a long time member of the VLD Fandom, let the toxicity die!!!!

Guys please

Guys, please don’t let She-Ra become the next Voltron. Please don’t let it become so toxic, that we start threatening the voice actors, that we start scaring people, threatening people, telling them to kill themselves. Please don’t let it get that far, the to the point where we only care about shipping and love and our own fanfiction. I know we all work incredibly, incredibly hard on the contents that we create as a fandom but just remember that the voice actors, creators of the show, they’re people too. Don’t let She-Ra become so toxic that I’m scared to be in the fandom. Don’t start caring only about Catradora vs Glimmadora. Or whatever ship you ship. So far, we’ve all done an amazing job with keeping everyone calm and there are lots of posts even saying that we all respect and love each other. I just wanted to keep it that way.

FEEL FREE TO REBLOG. IN FACT, I ENCOURAGE IT.

I love the language of flowers!!!

flower language in Pokemon

These are only a few recent examples, feel free to add to it! Pretty much any scene where recognizable, real world flowers are drawn in detail, they’re typically chosen to convey a meaning.

Sweet pea: goodbye Grace (Serena’s mother) watches her daughter set off on her journey.

Baby’s breath: everlasting love, purity of heart, innocence

Satoshi (Ash) returns home at the end of XY, after Serena conveys her feelings, to these blooming outside his home…

Anemone: anticipation, forsaken Espurr waited patiently for the old woman it played with, anticipating her return, too young to understand why she could not return…

Marguerite: secret love, faith

After developing feelings for a doctor who saved her, Musashi (Jessie) was prepared to leave her old life behind for a chance to attain her dream of a stable, married life… upon realizing he loved another and choosing to rescue her friends, she took her leave with unspoken feelings.

Anisodontea: until today, today is the final day. [identified by may3104!]

After a series of misunderstandings, Satoshi accidentally knocks down the flowers Iris wears, and crushes them–with the journey over, the friends only have a little bit longer to travel together and this incident causes them to part ways a little sooner than intended. These flowers also play a role in the resolution.

I would read/write that.

A demon banished to the human world is mistaken for a stray cat and is taken to a local animal shelter.

My Top Ten Personal Harry Potter LGBTQA Headcannons

1: Scorbus- I feel like either most of the fandom or even all of the fandom just kind of accept this one a cannon, but since JK Rowling has never confirmed it, it gets to come up here. I don’t feel like this one needs much explanation.

2: Wolfstar- Kinda the same with Scorbus, practically all of the fandom just accepts that these two were a thing at one point. I personally see Sirius as gay and Remus as bisexual, but if you think differently, that is totally fine.

3: Bisexual Harry- let’s be honest here, Harry was kind of thick headed, and still kind of is, so it would not surprise me in the slightest if he was bi and never even knew it about himself. I saw one post a while back on Harry being bi and it just made so much sense to me. I’ll try to make this short, but the sum of it is that, Harry has only directly called one GIRL beautiful, Fleur, and let’s be frank here, that ones kind of a given, but he has directly called multiple BOYS handsome on plenty of occasions, Sirius and Cedric for example. There is also his obsession with both Draco and Snape to point to. I believe the reason he never knew this about himself, or at the very least, never acted on it, was because of his childhood at the Dursleys’. From the way they act and behave, I would honestly not be surprised if they made a very homophobic comments on multiple occasions or simply say that it was a forbidden topic and that Harry and Dudley were never allowed to talk about it. It’s not secret that Harry had a sh*+y childhood, so I would honestly not be surprised if this is exactly what happened.

4: Aromantic Asexual Charlie Weasley- This is kinda another one that the fandom just accepts and occasionally jokes about. I also accept this as cannon.

5: Demisexual Snape- Not very surprising to accept and think about after learning what Demisexual is and given that Snape never got over Lily, AT ALL, it’s basically cannon.

6: Asexual Newt Scamander- Okay I saw a post somewhere, probably Pinterest, comparing the Hogwarts Houses with sexuality’s and Hufflepuff matched up with Asexual. And think back on it, Newt may be Asexual too. Not because he is in Hufflpuff, but because of how he falls in love. With Newt, in both Fantastic Beast movies, I notice Newt didn’t fall in love with Tina and Leta’s appearances, but with their hearts and souls. He loved them because they took an interest in magically creatures just like him, and they made an effort to understand him. He does think that they are pretty, there’s no getting around that after the salamander eyes thing, but that’s not what made Newt love them in the first place.

7: Pansexual Fleur- Like Newt, I don’t think Fleur feel for Bill just because of his looks. While his handsome face was definitely what caught her eyes, I believe it was his spirit and personality that truly captured her heart. This is only backed up by the fact that Fleur basically tells everyone after Bill is injured, “I don’t give and d@m about how my husband looks, all I care about is that he is brave and stands up for what is right”.

8: Gay Hugo Granger-Weasley- He literally has no canon content for his personality or interests so that I get to headcannon him whatever the frick I want without any evidence to back it up. But in all seriousness, I think it would be a cute thing to see Hugo being scared to tell the family that me likes boys until Albus comes with a Malfoy boy around his arm, Hugo’s like “well, can’t make a bigger scene than that” and finally comes out to his parents, sister and family. Everyone of course loves home just the same and Hugo and Albus can now bond and gossip about their crushes and dates.

9: Gay Lorcan Scamander- Same reason as Hugo, no cannon content, so he can be anything I want him to be. Unlike Hugo though, Lorcan never had any doubts when it came to his sexuality and how his family would react to it. When he told his family it was without any preamble and everyone was fine with it. Luna would have totally raised her kids to be just as proud of themselves as she was, and it would be no different when it came to their sexualities. Plus, I ship Hugo and Lorcan. No cannon content.

10: Transgender Luis Weasley- As I have said with Hugo and Lorcan, we have little to no cannon content with the next generation. The best we have are what little we got out of JK Rowling and headcannons that all the fans just accept as cannon. So, I have this theory about Luis, Bill and Fleur’s son: what if he was a ftm Transgender. It was stated on his wiki page that Luis is the only know boy descended from a Velia , but what if he wasn’t a boy. What if he was born a girl, but unlike his mother and sisters who were all girly girls, he was more of a tomboy. Then when he went to Hogwarts and was placed in the girls dormitory, he felt wrong and out of place. After a lot of angst and self-louthing that did not go unnoticed by the teachers, McGonagal called Luis into her office and asked him what was wrong. Luis broke down and explained what he was feeling the best he could and eventually the Headmistress said “so you feel like you are in the wrong body?” Luis nods yes to this, “Mr. Weasley, that is far from unusual. Why do you this I turn into a cat? Because it is a comfort form for me, I like being a cat.” “But I like being a boy, Professor. I want to be a boy.” McGonagal thinks, “There is a spell that I can use to transfigurat your body to that of a male, however it will take awhile to prepare, both the spell and you. Your body will go through a change even more dramatic than puberty, I must also discuss this with your parents. It that really what you want?” Luis than nods his head vigorously and McGonagal gives Luis instructions about preparing himself for the transition as and sends a letter off to his parents as well. While Bill and Fleur are surprised at such news, support their child without a second thought and are even there when McGonagal performs the spell. Once Luis sees his new male body, he cries tears of joy and hugs both his parents and Professor for helping to get him to this point. This experience also gives Luis a drive to learn as much as he can about Transfiguration and later becomes Hogwarts’ newest Transfiguration Professor.

Anyway, those are my personal top ten headcannons. Let me know if you have any.

It already is for me🦁🐲🗡

Is Voltron/She-ra/The Dragon Prince gonna become the SuperWhoLock of animation??

I know so many people are hurting right now. I know so many people are struggling with all sorts of aspects of emotional onslaught S8 left them with. I get it. I do, and I am so sorry you are struggling right now. I wish I could speak some magical words or take some magical actions that would resolve your pain, but sadly I can’t.

All I can offer you are these words. Words which I’ve taken so deeply to heart.

For my~~~

Allurance Shippers: You loved this ship and created this ship before it was canon. You can still love and create this ship. It’s OK to be devastated. It’s OK to feel slighted and betrayed, but what’s not OK is stopping your creations. Turn your pain into beauty. Keep shipping. Keep creating. Nothing stopped you before, nothing should stop you now.

Sheith Shippers: I love you all. I know you feel betrayed at the moment. So many events led you to believe that Sheith could really be canon, you were misguided and disserviced. Your anger and pain is justified, but do not stop creating. You shipped Sheith with no canon proof of its existence. You grasped onto small moments and turned them into beautiful stories and art. The lack of canon Sheith prior to S8 did not stop you from creating before, it should not stop you now.

Allura Stans: I am so sorry for your loss. We’ve all felt this so deeply, but canon does not direct your creations. Keep writing. Keep drawing. Keep Allura alive through your creations. It’s the least she deserves. Don’t give up on her.

Shiro Stans: Shiro has suffered since the beginning. If you feel his ending was stifled and dishonest, it’s ok. Shiro has always deserved better. The most wonderful thing is that you can create a better world for him. Do not stop creating him. He can live happily, in whatever way you feel he best deserves, through your work.

And to everyone else that is feeling betrayed, misguided or is hurting in any way from S8, for whatever reason. Just remember to be safe. Remember to take care of yourself both mentally and physically. Remember to not give up. Remember to keep creating. Our fandom does not need to be filled with hate and anguish right now. We may not be able to change canon, but we can create whatever we want.

And always, always remember: Patience Yields Focus.

I love you all.

Yes!!!! Yes to all of this!!!!!❤️💛💚💙🖤 Rvepited Sa!!!!

So I just now got the chance to finish s8 and I haven’t fully had time to process it but honestly my initial reaction is that I don’t hate it?? Like yeah I’m sad the show ended and I 100% cried over Allura but I’m not like mad? Which is probably a super controversial thing but idk I just wasn’t mad about it. Sad definitely but I think her sacrifice was done really well and I’m at peace with it? And I really do love the open ending with room for the fans to make what they want. So nope not mad.

I think I pretty much feel that way too, friend! I 100% understand why people are upset and disappointed, and I am open to literally any interpretation of this show. You are all valid!!! I can see the faults and I’m not going to say it was anything groundbreaking, but I enjoyed watching it. Sad but okay, is what I’m gonna go with. I’ve always been a forward-facing kind of person so I think I’d just rather take what I was given and expand on it in my own way to make it work for me than to get angry about it. I do feel like this show suffered from trying to please everyone and in the end pleased no one, so an open ending was honestly more than I could hope for. I’ve already got so many ideas. And nothing can debunk them now, the future is OURS, ahahahaha.

One of these days I’ll be able to look at Allura without crying Today isn’t one of those days

Just finished Voltron Legendary Defender Season 8 my thoughts:

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🤯🤯🤯😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️💛💚💙🖤 It was the best possible way to end one of the best tv shows I have ever seen!!!! Thank you Voltron writers and staff, I will never forget the joy and feelings your show gave me. Watching it was truly one of the best experiences of my life. Form Voltron ❤️🖤💚💛💙

I would be C

y’all i just had the BEST idea for an ot3 au 

fake dating AND secret dating AT THE SAME TIME

Person A and Person B are dating, but their families wouldn’t approve for whatever reason. However both families are chill with Person C, so Person C agrees to be their pretend partner and pick them up for dates with each other, sneak them around, cover for them, etc. It gets complicated when A and B start to fall for C for real and C gets feelings for A and B. 

Voltron season 8 in 2 days

I can’t do it!!!!!!!!! I can’t say goodbye to the Paladins yet!!! I feel like either having a heart attack or a heart break!!!!!

Hella yes please!!!! Please Dreamworks!!!! I can’t let go of these characters yet!!!! The fandom drama maybe, but not the characters!!!!!

reblog if you would watch a spin-off show about this absolute squad.

Yes please!!!!!

reblog if you would watch a spin-off show about this absolute squad.

Thank you so so so much for saying this!!! It means so much to people who are both religious and lgbtqa 🏳️‍🌈. This is just what what so many people, either lgbt or religious, need to desperately hear. To know that it is okay and that loving the same gender does not mean you don’t love God or that God doesn’t love you. This is perfect.

A sign

If you’re lgbtq+ and not wanting to be rejected by your religion/faith this is your sign. I’m not the first to say this but I have a deep need to say this publicly. But as someone with unwavering faith in God, it pains me so deep inside that lgbtq+ people are rejected by their religions and families on a religious basis. I don’t care if you don’t have any faith rn but I know that the things I’ve had to go through as a Black &Mexican bisexual woman in this world, God didn’t make it just easier but my faith brought peace in my life and in a world like this people need peace inside. A lot of lgbtq+ people are turned off by the idea of having a religion. (Having a faith and being hardcore religious aren’t the same thing) but I just want to say that being lgbtq+ and bringing love and acceptance into other people’s lives means your already a better follower of God than any super religious person that teaches hate. God is Love in many many faiths and that’s all that matters. You’re not a sinner. You’re not a disgrace. You’re a beautiful human who’s here to love any and everybody. Stand tall and stay proud!
