“Pratchett went back to older throwaway jokes (like dwarves being apparently unisex) and used them as metaphors to discuss social change, racial assimilation, and other complex issues, while reexamining the species he’d thrown in at the margins of his world simply because they existed at the margins of every other fantasy universe. If goblins and orcs and trolls could think, then why were they always just there to be slaughtered by the heroes? And if the heroes slaughtered sentient beings en masse, how heroic exactly were they? It was a long overdue start on redressing issues long swept under the rug by a parade of Tolkien successors who never thought of anyone green and slimy as anything but a notch on the protagonist’s sword, and much of the urgency in Pratchett’s last few books seemed to be related to them. ‘There’s only one true evil in the world,’ he said through his characters. ‘And that’s treating people like they were things.’ And in the last of his ‘grown-up’ Discworld books, that idea is shouted with the ferocity of those who have only a few words left and want to make them count. Goblins are people. Golems are people. Dwarves are people, and they do not become any less people because they decide to go by the gender they know themselves to be instead of the one society forces on them. Even trains might be people, and you’ll never know one way or the other unless you ask them, because treating someone like they’re a person and not a thing should be your default. And the only people who cling to tradition at the expense of real people are sad, angry dwellers in the darkness who don’t even understand how pathetic they are, clutching and grasping at the things they remember without ever understanding that the world was never that simple to begin with. The future is bright, it is shining, and it belongs to everyone.”

he literally did in the fourth one when he's asked if he likes cars more than women

go watch Masters of the Universe PLEASE oh my god. You don't need to have previous experience with He-Man to watch it. I didn't and I loved it. Whoever's talking shit about it online is a liar. It's funny. The action sequences are BADASS. Adam is hot as fuck. Like that man is thicker than Chris Hemsworth's Thor. He could crush your skull like a watermelon with his biceps OR his thighs. Oh my god his thighs. The skirt and loincloth. The dramatic blonde curtain bangs. The midriff showing off the thickass six-pack. Nicholas Galitzine is a BRICKSHIT HOUSE. not to mention Jared Leto finally found the one role he's good at. His voice acting is dramatic and theatrical and goofy AND intimidating and menacing and powerful. All the side characters were great. The costumes were awesome. The VFX looked beautiful. Adam was beautiful. The amount of pathetic whumpy sounds he made had my fanfic writer heart POUNDING. they made him a cringefail wet cat himbo and every second was glorious. He got to mow through a crowd of npcs like a shounen protagonist. He beat the shit out of Skeletor with his bare fists.

If I may submit:

#Helios was declawed by his former owners so he doesn't just slap things he dislikes like most cats#he really only feels confident in hissing at them#Especially because a lot of the thing he doesn't like are bugs and those are sharp sometimes :(#Selene has figured this out and now when she hears him hiss she sprints over the kill the fuck out of the bug#Helios has learned she will do this so he'll hiss at stuff louder and louder until she hears him#A nervous old man and his emotional support homicidal maniac tags by @gallusrostromegalus

I couldn't get these two and their dynamic out of my head, @gallusrostromegalus I doodled them (guessed on their collars)

Let me demonstrate my answer for you:

that's so funny. that means he accepted Vader deflecting a blaster bolt with his hand as just something freaky government cyborgs can do, and stuck by Luke for multiple years as he tried to figure this Force stuff out, and just treated it like your friend getting really really into neopaganism to cope with a loss.
