So I Have A Theory, Specifically About The Pixie Hollow Movies. I Know The Way It Works Is Different

so I have a theory, specifically about the Pixie Hollow movies. I know the way it works is different in the books, so just the movies for this one.

So when Tinkerbell did the whole talent choosing ceremony when she first came into existence, the fact that the hammer glowed really brightly was a major thing, but I never understood why it was such a big deal. and they also mentioned how Vidia's glowed as well, just not as brightly.

so to start, there are over a hundred different talents in Pixie Hollow that all fall under certain categories prepresented in that choosing ceremony

it is my theory that the brighter your chosen object glows, the more sub talents you can do. So when Tinkerbell's hammer fuckin blinded the audience, that meant that she can do any and all tinker talents (which is a lot). And I mentioned Vidia and she is important for this too. Fast Flying is a rare talent as is, very few fairies have it, it is also one that has the least sub talents, I believe it's only three. So when Vidia's glowed brightly, it meant that not only did she get a rare talent but also, more than just one sub talent, but not all of them, that's why it wasn't as bright as Tinkerbell's.

That video of Alex Hirsch reading S&P notes for Gravity Falls conveys a few things to me:

1) the U.S. entertainment industry (especially animation) is run by older conservative types who make up offensive terms and get really mad about them.

2) the people who run Disney would be the first to fall in line with a fascist regime.

3) most of the media we consume is tailor-made and watered-down to appeal to the tastes of older, deeply religious conservative audiences.

4) conservatism, not the left, is and always has been the biggest voice of censorship in American culture.

Reminder that if you cannot find your dolls because they ran out, wait for them to be restocked, and don't pay a cent over their intended price. I want every scalper to be left with carts full of dolls in their house until they have to sell them at a reasonable price

LOVE being overdressed. Obsessed with it, actually. “Who you all dressed up for?” You, bitch, are we going to Cane’s or not? “Do you have an event today?” Yes, it’s called going to the grocery store.

Headcanons about Cupid getting used to Ever After High + a theory about her drastic change in character:

• First of all, and this had already been said, switching puns. She had a notebook where she would write down the Fairy Tale puns and their meanings so she wouldn't get lost, but to this day she still forgets to use them unless she's actively thinking about using them and will slip back to the monster puns when she's distracted or anxious

• She had to get used to acting like things that are normal to her are scary and evil. She can't talk about her friend Ghoulia who's undead, her podcast partner who's a snow monster that can freeze people with a wave of her hand, the beast like friendly werewolves, etc. That's honestly the reason why she doesn't talk about Monster High, when she tried to share her past she was met with such fear and disgust she just… gave up.

• On a slightly more lighthearted side of the last topic, she also had to get used to the fact that dark humor is not seen like a good thing at all. No, Cupid you can't make comments about corpses and drinking the blood of people. 

• She also never talks about her more monstrous appearance. She just knows that once the royals found out about the bone wings they would fear her.

• She has to accept that many of her beloved monster colleagues would be considered evil. Deuce, joking about turning his friends into stone, the Wolf siblings, meat eating beasts capable of killing a human in seconds, Draculaura, with her fangs and blood sucking nature (even if she tries to hard to deny it), Heath, who can't help but catch things on fire. No space for being yourself in ever after high.

• I also think that there's something or someone behind her not being herself. Cupid can be a bit traditional but I don't think she would be a royal if she had the choice, my guess is that Headmaster Grimm is manipulating her into being one and working toward making the students fulfill their destinies or even worse, enchanted her to think she believes that.

• And here comes my personal headcanon. I think she was love potioned, by Headmaster Grimm, to love Dexter. Falling for a royal, a Charming of all people, makes her easier to manipulate into taking the royal's side, she wants to impress him and be by his side, it would also explain her drastic change in personality which, by the way, the way she acts towards Dexter is similar to the way she acted towards Clawd when she accidentally made herself fall in love with him. 

possible explanations for Baymax being able to get 10 bags full of menstrual products:

Hiro updated his programming so he can have a bit of money linked to a debit card or something

Baymax has no money but found an employee instead. Baymax politely and calmly told them that he needs to get a small city's worth of pads and tampons right away, you see he has a patient and it's very urgent, and the cashier who does NOT get paid enough to argue with or explain the concept of capitalism to an 8 foot tall crimefighting robot was like "man, just go"

Baymax knows exactly how money and capitalism works but thinks it has no place in medicine, and regularly just straight-up shoplifts in the name of free and effective healthcare
