LOOK AT THESE SMITTEN BOYS!!!!!!

i feel like reggie cried when he found out pluto is no longer considered a planet

a hard pill to swallow: if an audience can pick up on where the story is going, it’s a good story.

Are there Adrien Salt takes that you agree with?

I mean, the thing about salt that I inherently disagree with is how it often equates "a character making a mistake / doing something 'bad' " to "a bad character / poor writing / a bad person".

Like, I could sit here and list out all the mistakes that Adrien has made, but that doesn't mean I agree with the salt interpretation of those mistakes. I kind of equate "[character] salt" in the fandom at this point with "bad faith criticism of the character", and no, I don't have any 'bad faith' criticisms of Adrien.

I think at the end of the day, Adrien and Marinette are both flawed characters who have done things I disagree with, but those flaws and decisions are what make them compelling characters. And even when I don't agree with their choices, I always understand why they made them (and it's almost always either some kind of trauma response or a misguided attempt to do good), and that's why I love them.

They're just kids, they're genuinely trying their best, and they're going to make some interesting mistakes along the way. I don't personally see any point in fixating on those mistakes. That's just not how I enjoy the show.

( also, please no one add salt to this post. just wanted to answer the question and honestly I'd prefer to stay sodium-free. make your own post if you must. )

Dedications | Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events

i think “Into the Spider-Verse” really proves how animation is an amazing form of story telling and how it’s just as effective(if not more) as live-action
