Kink: I eat a crunchy nature valley bar while standing over you and watch the crumbs fall on you
This post is revealing who the weak ones are. Y'all can't handle Crumb Daddy Crumblord the 1st
Maybe I’m old fashioned, but I preferred the Addams Family when they were just creepy, kooky, mysterious, and spooky. Now Wednesday is a murderer who drops piranhas in a swimming pool and watches people get eaten. We even get blood. Not fake blood like in the first movie, but actual blood from an actual person screaming in pain because he’s being eaten alive.
Just… why?????
It just sits wrong with me mostly because The Addams Family was an expression of the cultural other. Charles Addams deliberately made the family explicitly mixed race (please everyone look at how he illustrated Grandmama in Mother Goose). The Addams Family represented the complex anxieties around the cultural other in New York during the mid 20th century, especially the wealthy cultural other who were growing in numbers and prominence during that time and were very much perceived as a threat. Much of the modern academia focusing on Addams as a satirist revolves around how white America perceived and feared the powerful, non-conformist other and how Charles Addams satirised that anxiety through his work.
I like the 60s show the best because (although it obviously whitewashed the characters) it doesn’t shy away from the concept of cultural otherness but it enforces that the family are actually really loving and generous which is the very likely reality of the social group Charles Addams was reflecting in the family.
Tim Burton casting POC actors for the Addams Family is correct - but for him then to essentially go “actually in my version the family actually are a violent threat” is just?? Especially with Tim Burton’s history of depicting his few non-white characters as bloodthirsty villains. Alright the audience is on Wednesday’s side, but there’s just something not right to me about characterising a non-white girl as so aggressive and vicious especially when the original Charles Addams comics depicted Wednesday as incredibly gentle and shy. Yes Wednesday was just getting revenge for her brother, but it’s so nasty and grotesque whilst obviously being aimed at a young teenage audience that it is just uncomfortable to watch.
Tim Burton’s just watched the market and realised that Riverdale, Umbrella Academy and Stranger Things are doing well so him and his team has mashed these shows together and cranked out this new Wednesday show without the least thought for the source material. They’re just adapting the Addams Family because a remake always has an existing audience to capitalise on.
I mean has Tim Burton ever seen Addams Family Values? You can have Wednesday take revenge without resorting to killing people. In fact it’s much more thrilling and rewarding.
She literally roasted the counselors, and set fire to a young girl, and you think that just because they didn't show it, she didn't kill them?
The counselors might have died but Amanda is seen on a plane at the end of the movie alive.
We just installed a bidet 🥴
hello hi. posting this bc its really the only really non-spoilery song from the musical episode… and it is…..so fucking cute. please watch dead end: paranormal park the full first episode is free on youtube!
I didn't realize till now coco peru is the voice actor for Pauline 🙃
I heard it later in the musical episode and thought it sounded kinda like Alex brightman and just found that out too. 🙃
Bonus:
Norma being the #most relatable
A lot of the process focused on Barney, but Norma is the character I’m most proud of for a few reasons. One is that when I wrote the webcomics, I tried to make her “hashtag relatable.” I just thought this was everyone’s experience of life. So many people reached out and said, “Hey, I headcanonned her as autistic!” or “Great representation of anxiety.” I got so many comments like that when we came to write the show, I thought, Norma is autistic.
Another reason I’m so proud is that I had constantly pitched shows of characters like her as the lead, and I always got the note about how female characters need to be more fun and less anxious. “Why is she so annoying? Why is she so this and that?” It always bothered me because I kept seeing these characters come out whose only flaw is that they’re a bit clumsy, but they’re super fun, awesome, great, great, great. I get it, but my experience of childhood and when I think of what it was like to be a kid, I just think of sad, lonely and awkward — and I think you can make a fun show out of that.

This speaks to me on a personal level.
Courtney, once again being a mood™️
y'all ever seen women nutcrackers? are you ready for this absolute tomfoolery?
Jim I love you but why do you collect these 😭
@songsofwaterandnight It is an addiction that began eons ago when I was a wee child of 10yrs old, it was a cold December’s night and my aunt took me to a store called Deals, which was sorta like the 5 Below of 2002, and it was on that fateful night I saw an especially ragged, janky, small lone nutcracker with a crooked nose, uneven eyes, rat teeth and a missing arm and I thought to myself “This is the most hilariously hideous thing I’ve ever seen in my life and I cannot live without this.” and then I thought he looked lonely and needed friends, and I just never stopped collecting both very nice or comically beat up looking nutcrackers every holiday season, lol.
I saw this one a few years ago. I was strickened by its uglyness and its gay representation crotch.

Your toxins aren't safe it's single now and looking.
jojo siwa is like. her style is not my taste at all but as soon as other people call it annoying im like actually you're wrong she's an icon and a legend
she looks like the concentrated essence of a claires store and i do not mean this negatively
it’s the “fuck you” to the current trend of encouraging teenagers to look 24 and embracing girly things that cis men hate
American Kawaii
she looks like someone turned a Skittles commercial into a person and i love it
If you don’t mind me putting my two cents:
I feel like Jojo Siwa’s style is reminiscent of the colorful teen girl fashion of the late 2000s and early 10s. Back then it was considered fashionable to use lots of colors, accessories, etc. Take a look at Jojo Siwa:
Very colorful, generous with sparkles and accessories. It’s meant to be fun!
If you were a kid in 2007-2012 you saw something similar in the clothing the teens in your sitcoms wore, although not as exaggerated. The fashion in Shake It Up(which came out in 2010) is a really good example of this:
(You may laugh, but this was the height of fashion to 13 year old me.)
The point is, Jojo’s aesthetic is similar to being a young pre teen girl walking into Limited Too for the first time.
And the reason cishet men hate it is because they don’t find it attractive. That’s why she’s often made fun of and used as a joke so much. Because that style doesn’t cater to the male gaze. It’s not for them, so it must be bad.
Cyndi Lauper, late 1980s, for your consideration.
Okay but you realize that the person who said "American Kawaii" has it exactly right, yea? That kawaii in Japan was created for girls to embrace cutesy juvenile things that refuted the beauty standards (created by men) that expected them to look mature and marriageable as soon as possible. It was over-the-top BECAUSE men hated it! Because the girls in the subculture specifically wanted to keep them away as long as they could and enjoy their childhood without being seen as Somebody's Future Wife™.
アメリカのカワイイです！
