Between Stories On Episode, Books, Tv Shows, And Movies I Want To See, Im Drowning In Media And Literature!!

Between stories on episode, books, tv shows, and movies I want to see, I’m drowning in media and literature!!

Not that that’s a bad thing of course.

Couldn’t have said it better

When WEBTOONs explain one the duties of a police officer well than the police training facility in real life. I’m not even sure on what exactly ‘immobilizing’ means to them since some can have many interpretations to that word.

I was very pleased to see that other people recognized these themes in this movie

A simplified but deeply necessary lesson on historical revisionism and core themes of the value of respecting diversity and a leader’s responsibility to accept feedback and criticism?? In my 2020 children’s movie sequel based on a 1960s fad toy franchise?? It’s more likely than you think.

Okay, but all jokes aside, it’s shockingly mature of Trolls World Tour to specifically address an uncomfortable history in which the ancestors of the protagonists are the villains. Just like how that decent condescending language metaphor scene in Zootopia (where ‘cute’ is considered an socially iffy term for carnivores to use to describe rabbits) provides children with great sample dialogue to emulate from either side. The good-hearted cheetah sincerely apologizes and the rabbit forgives him: “That’s okay. You didn’t know.” When Prince D reveals to Poppy that King Peppy’s version of the origin story of the strings was wrong and absolved the Pop trolls of their wrongdoing, Poppy doesn’t defend them or herself, and neither does she wallow in self-pitying guilt. She believes the royal Funk troll family, shows immediate desire and will to rectify the situation, and then listens when they explain to her that her solution would just be destructive. The flawed protagonist is still the one that the audience is supposed to relate to and support during her character growth, so the children watching are subtly taught that the correct action to take when learning uncomfortable truths is to take responsibility in a mindful, educated and ego-free manner.

I mean, as adults we laugh when Prince D says “Scrapbooks?? Scrapbooks are cut out, glued and glittered by the winners.” But just like how young kids these days only recognize The Sound Of Silence as ‘that song from the movie Trolls’, there’s a good chance that this line from Trolls World Tour will be many kids’ first exposure to that common phrase. The simplified metaphor will stick with them. And when these kids grow up, some will realize that they’ve inherited bad legacies like Poppy, but that they have the power to make change in respectful ways and undo that damage however they can.

My favorite form of entertainment

Love the puns from Pun Hub

Why is nobody listening when I say I’m not okay? Do I have to straight up kill myself to let these people know I’m not fine?

These are funny bc of how utterly ridiculous they are, but they’re also horribly terrifying because there are large numbers of the population who actually think like this; one of whom is the standing President of the Nation

I just went through liberty hangout (gun girls brand) twitter and holy fuck I lost brain cells. Some if this shit is funny though
