The Captain's Lady

as a pink lover. The ""universal""" hatred of the color pink by young girls is due to the heavy expectation of femininity forced on them. It is an expression of frustration at gender roles. It is not internalized misogyny. No you will not inevitably start liking pink as an adult and if you do that is not healing your inner divine feminine or whatever we're saying now. Its a color. 😁👍

I only started liking pink when I found out that pink things are less likely to be stolen. That's still the gender roles bullshit at play, just in a different direction. I've gotten to the point where I like pink well enough for its own sake/as a color, but using pink to fuck with the patriarchy is definitely where it started.

"Pink" is more than just one color, too."Bubblegum" pink, and anything paler, is less appealing to me. But raspberry pink? Yes, please.

Bugs Bunny accidentally transformed the word nimrod into a synonym for idiot because nobody got a joke where he sarcastically compared Elmer Fudd to the Biblical figure Nimrod, a mighty hunter.

Etymology is ridiculous and terrifying sometimes

Bugs Bunny is more powerful than God

He also solidified the idea of rabbits loving carrots when carrots actually carry very little nutritional value for rabbits. The funniest part of that is that the original joke was a reference to a Clark Gable film where Gable munches on a carrot, it was never meant to imply that rabbits love carrots. The Clark Gable reference would’ve been obvious to audiences in the 40s but it has been pretty much lost to time.

Bugs Bunny has too much power and should be feared.

let's all have a fun time looking up new words when we encounter them to see what they mean before incorporating them into our vocabularies
