hazbin played straight

Winnifred convinces herself that Vaughn didn’t actually hate her+William because when he changed his name and disappeared without a trace, he chose the last name Whittman! W! Clearly he still loved them and just chose never to contact them again for Reasons!

wait i just realized… “winnifred vaughan” and “vincent whittman”… WV vs VW

THE BOTTOM IS A PAINTING????

also does a really good job reminding the view just how much air quality has improved since we stopped burning coal in every building lol

I completely get Why this happens but I quite dislike this trend that happens in fan spaces sometimes where fans hold each other to much higher standards of queer representation than they do their source material. a classic example of this is when a writer or actor or other production member gives an offhand comment in an interview about thinking a character is x identity when it's never brought up in the text or is even mildly contradicted by the text a few times, and then fans turn around and deploy that piece of interview to say This Character Is Canonically X This Is #Representation How Dare You Ever Say They're Otherwise. this particularly bugs me as an ace person in regards to ace characters because there are now actually a good handful of textually asexual characters in fandom-popular media who go the whole nine yards, they explicitly say they're asexual or don't feel sexual attraction or voluntarily don't have sex because they don't wanna, if you want a character who is unmistakably asexual you can just find one and put them in your pocket, you don't have to pretend that word of god pseudo-canon asexuality is Good Representation and try (and invariably fail) to force other fans to play along. I just think it's unfair to accuse fanworks of erasure of identities that aren't even in the source text in the first place.

wait, maybe that's one of the reasons vox is weird about the number seven? like, that's how long his tv star/serial killer career lasted? 1945-1952? seven years??

i think i've finally decided on "after," and that might actually fix some of my issues with vox's age. perhaps helen met vincent back in his weatherman days, but they didn't marry until either his newscaster or talkshow era– after he'd proven to bob that he was "good enough" for her. maybe vincent was in his thirties when he first started courting helen, but lied and told her that he was 25-29 to make her feel more at-ease (helen was between 19-24 when she married him).

is it too early or can we start screaming now

in retrospect perhaps we should have started sooner

this post is the equivalent of a newspaper from the day of the outbreak being blown past by the wind after you wake up in a post apocalyptic world

med people are so annoying "This family's 8 year old child who was about to go through a major surgery and kept crying that she was hungry so they pitied her and gave her food, she then had a heart attack in the surgery. They're so stupid 😒" girl they didn't know that could happen or why it happens. it takes so little time to explain to them that will happen instead of telling them "no food" with no explanation 10 times

"Before surgery, your body’s reflexes that protect your airway are relaxed by anesthesia. If there’s food or liquid in your stomach, it will near certainly come back up and go into your lungs, which can cause choking, a severe lung / heart infection or even a heart attack. That’s called aspiration, and it is life-threatening. It's hard, but it's only a single day to prevent near certain death. Not eating or drinking beforehand massively lowers the risk and helps prevent these life threatening situations under anesthesia." <- TIP: patients have brains which allows them to receive information just like you

the fact that fandom in general is so allergic to respecting the complexity of teenage girls and instead must classify them as either angelic or irredeemable, because of course to acknowledge her flaws and virtues in a full tapestry celebrating the nuances of her character is simply out of the question. well it’s just. deeply unfortunate. because more often than not teenage girls make for the most interesting characters ever

The thing I dislike about alt histories where real life monarchs have been made both gay and unproblematic is that it seems to imply that gay monarchs have not existed in history but if they did they would be cool. Which isn’t true. They have existed and they were just as bad as straight people. And I think it is disrespectful to real queer history to pretend that queer people have never been absolute bastards
