Random Tumblr posts

You know how tumblr is. What was funny last week is now offensive today and any offenders must be put down behind the shed with a shotgun.

I had no idea the Scots were oppressed now.

Next you'll be telling me Tumblr's gonna start cracking down on making fun of Italian accents.

the creator of the comic ended up pussying out and reposted it with edited slang and a darker skinned Nessa, despite the great majority of his fanbase going "dude what the fuck don't change it it's fine". It honestly made me lose a lot of respect for him. I just hope he realizes that now that he's bent the knee to these dumbfucks once, they'll never be happy with anything he makes and always find reasons for him to change it.

True, though the real offence is by not editing it only to make Loch Nessa the one with the exaggerated Scots accent.

Pretty sure she's supposed to be Indian anyways, not sub-Saharan African, but anything non Anglo-Saxon gets lumped in together like the borg.

It would make sense, if the game region's based on the UK. But central Asians now get overlooked even by British media in favour of blacks, despite the fact that Asians are the largest ethnic group in the country after whites, because of "black" becoming shorthand for "not white". Anyone not black doesn't count as enough of a POC, so if you only have one or two characters who aren't white, they'd better be black as you can get or the internet will call you racist. Maybe the skin tone values have to average out at a certain level to pass.

But hey, those complaining are probably the same ones who pitch a fit if a Japanese anime set in Japan doesn't have a cast of at least 50% black characters.

They did this last year, where have you been? This show has all kinds of gay undertones (and overtones) in it. Chill.

I could've already posted it once, but that reaching is fucking infuriating

No a single mention of the giant mechanical spider from Wild, Wild West, which was basically a wheelchair crossed with a tank crossed with a... spider.

smh

Seeing the attitude of the people on this post makes me want to never put a single disabled character in any of my stories ever. If they're gonna act like petulant children over it, they don't deserve these characters.

But if they CAN be cured, why wouldn't they be? If they had the choice to be cured by magic or whathever it is that is prevalent in the setting, why would they want to stay crippled? I'm fine with characters on wheelchairs in non-modern settings, there's always been a way to be moved from place to place if a person couldn't walk, but the replies are moronic. The word nazi is thrown around because some people don't include (and might have a reason not to) handicapped people in their stories. Typical.
 
Bob's Burgers above: Colored characters wrapped in flags - Some of them are the month's target audience anyway
Sesame Street: A rainbow set as background for the characters (all left blank) - More like a nod from them to humans 🤷‍♀️

Yours truly, anyway, prefers to stick with this (now deleted but saved somewhere else) line:
Even though they... possess many human traits and characteristics (as most Sesame Street Muppets™ do), they remain puppets, and do not have a sexual orientation.

I know some members of the deaf community are against finding cures for their disability for fear that it will destroy deaf culture. I mean, I guess if you were born deaf and that's all you ever knew, being able to hear after so many years of deafness would probably fuck with your head, so I can kind of understand that stance.

Yo, why are you talking about Sesame Street muppets as though they're a separate species or something?
 
@Meowthkip - Heck if I know, just happened to sound that way :bork: They remind me more of toys in Toy Story, except for being alive all the time, not just when the child's away. So im confus when people start to demand social justice from what's pretty much living toys.

Speaking of, hadn't seen Pixar post anything pride-related yet. Or is it just me?

Also when will every tard on tumblr realize that it is extremely fucking awkward for characters (or the narrator) to turn to the reader and say, quite unnaturally, "I'm gay and black and asexual. My friend is Latino and in a wheelchair. Look at him wheeling around. He is in a chair with wheels. His legs don't work. He is Latino and disabled and needs a wheelchair. See Jane run. Run, Jane, run." and then never have it reincorporated.
That sounds like it would be a funny parody story. Maybe we'll be able to make those someday without being headhunted on social media for it
After debunking Bert and Ernie's relationship as being thought to be gay, Sesame Street's Twitter just posted this:View attachment 805664
I don't think that Pride Month needs to exist for any reason other than virtue signalling and/or marketing, but that's not even a good example of dumb #PRIDE marketing.
"even though that's what a lot of trans families look like"... are you trying to make yourself look as unsympathetic and creepy as possible?
