    A while back I was recovering from a panic attack so my wife said we should try watching Bluey.

    The feelings were too scary, so instead we settled on Friday the 13th

      For anyone who hasn’t heard, Dana Terrace and her team (from The Owl House) have put out a pilot for their new show: Knights of Guinevere. I highly recommend it, and please spread the word.

      My pathetic fren you are literally in transmemes, wtf were you expecting?

      You probably need an instance ban tbh. I’m sure someone who gets easily disgusted by trans women will be better off that way

              You should be banned for trying to participate in a group for people you clearly have hatred for. But sure, if playing martyr makes you feel like you’re worth something, feel free to keep screeching.

    Well, it’s kinda important to expose developing/more pliable brains to the full scale of things (not just one narrow little bit/spectrum) - a bit like playtime equips you with the mindset to face & make real-time decisions in the real situation (and not first having to comprehend what’s going on + have the years of background thinking about bigger concepts).

      I think I personally have an aversion to live-action partly because trying to avoid looking at people because of self-denial. IRL, that’s easy to avoid, but you can’t really watch a show without watching it. Can’t say I’ve heard others express similar reasons though, but I supposed there’s a reason why “I want to be a cute anime girl” is such a popular webtoon (relevant panel).

          I watched cartoons as a kid! I think… I can’t actually remember due to the memory loss caused by depression.

          Queer people usually have bad childhoods either by abuse or by simply having been lost or disassociating, by watching cartoons again with other queer people they reclaim those experiences — now in a healthy way.

          You’d be surprised actually. A lot of us were ‘raised’ by abusive and/or ultra religious folks that hated cartoons. Not all, but a lot.

            I don’t think that’s a big proportion, I assume most just weren’t allowed or too anxious to express how they felt about the media.

            (Just a hunch, I’m likely cis; I also haven’t been exposed to anime or emotionally heavy cartoons until 15, and even then very sporadically)

              Yep, this is me. I felt a lot of pressure (from outside and the inside) to conform to what “real boys” liked. And kept my true interests hidden.

            Trans people who are on lemmy/reddit, I’d say. Plenty of less chronically online trans people I know are quite extroverted. (I’m not disagreeing, just offering another perspective)

              If you are immortal and eat for free, you have no excuse not to invest your food budget in index funds and wait a couple of hundred years. If a vampire doesn’t at least live in a stately home, they are making very poor investment choices. What I wouldn’t give to have invested in Nintendo back in 1889.

              Truly? Why? It’s a beautiful story of a missfit’s journey towards self acceptance and has strong LGBTQ characters. And it is all accepted as normal. A blueprint for how society should function. A world in which your identity or romantic preferences aren’t given a second thought by anyone. On top of that it’s a classic underdog tale of a struggle against authoritarianism. The characters are well written and grow and develop throughout the seasons. I just don’t see why you wouldn’t like it.

                There are all kinds of people out there. I once knew a guy who wrote drum corps music but literally hated all other kinds of music.

                That being said, I’m also curious about their reason(s).
