There's a lot of dumb ass animal cruelty takes in general but my favorite is the people who think you need to force sled dogs to pull.

Have you ever walked a dog before in your entire life? They love to pull. They're the pullingest damn things you ever saw. They'll merrily rip your rotator cuff in half like a phone book for the chance to stick their own face into a pile of old feces. They'll drag you down the road while you go through all 5 stages of grief trying to make them stop.

There are hundreds of products on the market promising to get ordinary non sled dogs to stop pulling their hapless owners down the road and spilling their iced coffees. People have gone so far as to use electric collars to try and zap sense into their poor stupid labradoodle that wants nothing more but to suicidally pull itself and everyone it loves into the snarling maw of the nearest leash reactive pit bull.

A dog that's allowed to pull, nay, encouraged to pull, is probably the most self actualized animal on the planet right after seagulls that live somewhere with food stands outdoors.

The Barbie movie: The Ken's need to find who they are outside of pursuing Barbies, a clear allegory for how real life men should not define themselves by trying to attract a partner and building their personality around that, something that would be healthier and better for them overall

Misogynists: barbie movie is so anti-men :(( how could they do this :((((

I've seen some fanfics where Enid is the oblivious one. But come on, we all know Wednesday wouldn't know romance that isn't as clear and sappy as her parents' even if it slapped her in the face and roundhouse kicked her to the moon. I really doubt she would know what romance looks like beyond the stories of her parents who were probably overtly affectionate from the beginning so she would absolutely not know what hints are considering her clear avoidance of romance as it's unlikely she'd read or listen to romantic material. Even when the curse hits her like a truck, she'd still sip her respect women juice and try to keep away until she's 100% sure Enid feels the same.

Wednesday would embody the "I really, really like her but i'm gonna wait for a sign and that's not a sign, she's just being friendly." Lesbian stereotype but taken to the extreme.

I just got a thought so! we all know that Wednesday wears alot of layers right

So one day, during school when Wednesday wants to convince Enid to do something like check out this abandoned place somewhere, do you what she does?

She takes off the blazer and carries it on her arm

It's innocent, it shouldn't do a thing except Enid has the same constitution as someone from the Victorian era around Wednesday for some reason

It shouldn't do a thing, it's literally her girlfriend wearing the rest of the uniform minus the blazer, it should not at all affect the werewolf.

Except, it does, much to Enid's own mortification

Safe to say she was too busy processing what she was seeing to fully realize where they were walking too

Wednesday knows what she's doing btw, theres smth flattering about doing something so tiny yet gaining such a loud reaction

It escalated to her folding her sleeves up one day and it's enough to have Enid blushing and quickly averting her eyes away when Wednesday raises a brow
