Just saw a new mod on nexus that makes Wyll's skin lighter. I hate people I swear to god.

personally i think people are getting a bit too comfortable with calling charles a stupid himbo online or whatever. just because he has a self-deprecating sense of humor, doesn't take himself seriously and is easy going in a "blurt anything out and then laugh about it" kind of way, doesn't mean he doesn't have a functioning brain. and it also doesn't make it okay for random people to joke about his intelligence so persistently. to anyone who's cared enough to look closely, it is quite obvious charles is a very smart, analytical driver. i'm not saying he's never made mistakes or said his fair share of stupid things, but i do think the way people have been targeting him with the "no thoughts head empty" type of jokes is disproportional. i am aware it is harmless fun for the most part, but i am growing progressively more and more weary of it, mostly because i can see it has started to affect the way people actually perceive him. people immediately believed he had no idea what was happening in ukraine because of a misquote. people genuinely believe, to this day, that he would do stuff like drive into max on purpose. people (usually monolinguals which is ironic) love to make fun of him for the tiny mistakes he makes in english when the man is out there juggling three languages every day. so i guess what i'm saying is... there is a fine line between laughing with someone and laughing at someone and i feel like the way people talk about charles online is quickly turning into the latter.

if you think about it for even like. 1 second, you would realize the arguments used against trans women by terfs is the exact same shit straights would use against lesbians (example: the idea of trans women being "predatory" to the innocent cis women, and the idea of lesbians being "predatory" to the innocent straight women,debate on whether they should be allowed in women's restrooms, ect, ect) and it really comes to show that a lot of terfs are straight, and the ones who are lesbians are really disconnected not only from their history, but the community as a whole

Y’all it’s amazing seeing artists and animators getting the appreciation they deserve in this fandom/gen but ngl, it’s kinda sad seeing the writers in this fandom being slept on :/ /nm
