James Baxter’s section in the new SU artbook is so funny because he talks about the scene he animated in Change Your Mind and he’s like “it’s not as complicated as it looks” as he goes into extreme detail about the incredibly complicated scene he did

An incomplete list of tropes that make me go absolutely feral

- The fact that some characters, hero or villain, have performed specific actions so often that when someone mentions that action, the character has to say “can you be more specific.”

- Large, boisterous, incredibly friendly Russians

- The dope slap. Just smacking someone upside the head as a way of telling someone that they were being an idiot

- When the morally ambiguous character leaves just before the final throwdown only to painfully admit that yes, they do care about their friends, then turn around and go back to help save the day

- Parents that are so obviously and healthily in love with each other that it has the high potential to embarrass their children

- When the authorities have the various members of the crew in an interrogation room and it cuts between the different interrogations to the crew either giving wildly different accounts of the same story or finishing each other’s sentences/answering each other’s questions

- When a character has every right to be frustrated at something physical and appears to be walking away calmly only to lose their cool a second later and grab a sledgehammer or smth

- Incredibly grandiose/unlikely threats. IE: “I’m going to play hopscotch in your chest cavity” or “I’m going to carve your heart out with a spoon.” Bonus points if the character that makes them follows through or makes a reference to them later on.

- Someone naming their weapon. Bonus points for naming it after a loved one or a lost love.

- The relationship between a pure force of unmitigated chaos and the one person that can (sometimes) keep them under control.

- Brick jokes. Like someone drops a line in Season 2, episode 3, only to have it referenced in Season 7, episode 9. The longer the brick is in the air, the better.

- Weaknesses that are really lame

- When a character has something that happens to them that removes all sense of a filter, and they start saying what’s *really* on their mind.

- Ambiguously worded questions. No matter how you answer, it’s going to lead to more humor.

- Communication errors for the sake of comedy, just like, in general

- Slipping innuendos into kids’ movies or shows

- The whole master/loyal assistant dynamic. Bonus points if there’s mutual pining or a secret relationship going on behind the scenes

If you notice me reblogging

please let me know, you’re not rude or annoying and I actually do give a fuck and I will correct my mistake, thank you

I’m gonna reblog this here because I reblog a lot of art and sometimes I hesitate because I’m not sure if it’s a repost. But if you guys see me reblogging something that was reposted instead of the actual source, PLEASE LET ME KNOW so I can take it down.

This also applies if you see me reblog something from

  • A genuinely terrible person

I love being told that! I will gladly delete that reblog

valid for ALL of my blogs yall, lmk

YES.

Or if I just did something bad. Please tell me, I don’t want to come off as a twat.

I did another post on this topic last year, but I thought it could use an update with some more books! And yes, the last post had people repeatedly adding on queer books by white people, so I’m a bit salty about it.

Other queer SFF PowerPoints:

I’m not transcribing all the text, but you can find the titles, authors, information on TW, etc beneath the cut.

When possible, I’m linking to my database of queer books. The page for each book includes the synopsis, content warnings under spoiler tags, and links to reviews from queer readers. If it’s not in the queer database at the time of posting (8/24/19), I’ll link to Goodreads instead.

The Greatest Cartoon Loser of All Time

While most cartoons, especially adult characters are written as hilarious and cool but they’re also badasses, and deep such as…

Stanley Pines from Gravity Falls is a con artist, a cheat and a liar but will do anything to protect his friends and family at all cost. 

Eda Clawthorne from The Owl House is similar to Stan but she’s the most powerful Witch of the Bolis Isle 

Catra Applesauce Meowmeow from She-Ra rise of power of the Horde but later becoming a better person by join the Princess Rebellion 

Rick Sanchez from Rick and Morty go on space adventures and acts like he doesn’t care the people he hurt nor their safety but deep down he does

Spinel from Steven Universe abaddoned by Rose Quartz/Pink Diamond but soon was adopted by the Diamonds 

But there’s one character that isn’t a badass nor deep as the ones I mentioned but manage to be the most beloved and the one that I root for and it’s. Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtiz from Phineas and Ferb 

Unlike most characters, he isn’t deep like the rest, a badass and not really villainous, in fact he’s pretty much a loser but that’s what make him such a great character. He’s such a loveable idiot that can’t be taken seriously but just smile and laugh everytime he’s on screen. 

Many schemes that are not in evil traditional sense but him being overly dramatic and most of his inators aren’t even violent such as 

Turn himself into a platypus to be equal terms with Perry the Platypus 

Built an Invisinator so he won’t have to see the Fireside Girls when their selling him tickets or chocolate 

Built an Atomic Leafblowerinator to blow leafs at his neighbors leafs back at him 

He makes great jokes

But what makes him such a great character is his hilarious and tragic backstory. His parents didn’t show up the day of his birth, threw himself his own birthday parties, his father replaced him with a dog named “Only Son”, raised by ocelots, lost Baloony, his brother overshadowed Heinz, family distowned him and getting a divorce. Despite everything he’s been through, he better himself and doesn’t let his past change who he is. 

Doof and his wife are divorce due wanting different things but still keep in touch and never once mention in one of his tragic backstories 

At first he and Perry were enemies but as time passed, they became more friendly towards each other and even became friends 

But the highlight of his character is his relationship with his daughter, Vanessa. Focus all of his enery to be their for Vanessa, providing support and being their for her. Sets up a suprise birthday party. spent many years to find Mary Mcguffin doll for her even she’s a teenager. Suprvise her camping trip. His daughter talk to him that he isn’t a villain but a good person that just pretending to be evil. He listens to her and needed directions of being a good guy. 

In Milo’s Murphy he tries his best to be a good guy throughout the show. At “Act Your Age”, he truly gave up being evil and sided with good. 

Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz is the greatest cartoon character that’s ever been created. He isn’t emotionally deep, complex, a badass or hilarious like other characters but such a fun character that I can’t help but smile everytime he’s on screen. He tries to be a villain but really, he’s just a good person that’s pretending to be evil who just needs direction. 

FUN FACT

Outside Phineas and Ferb, he made numerous crossovers such as… 

He was called by Big City Greens kids

Interacted with Goofy about his goofyness 

Did a duet with Stitch 

And was in Shark Tank 

What a freaking legend!!!
