This Exact Thought Has Been Rolling Around In My Brain For The Last Two Days. We Need This Crossover.

Queer representation was always important, but in recent times with an increase in censorship and bigotry in the mainstream, it has become vital.

Please spread the word. Queer people deserve to have our stories told and we must fight this new wave of discrimination to ensure that we are represented.

Alaura is 5'2", 120 lbs. She has brown eyes and black hair that is styled in braids. She was last seen wearing a black coat, grey leggings, and black crocs.

"It's not Marinette's responsibility to tell Adrien!" Then why does she make herself responsible for every decision made regarding what Adrien gets to know? If it's not her responsibility she shouldn't get to make any calls about it. You don't get to push a shelf over on purpose and then yell: "not my mess!"

Marinette made herself responsible. Now we'll just have to wait and see if the show will hold her responsible.

To those who believe they will escape the next four years without consequence, know that you will be affected by the incoming tyranny, it's not just minorities, women, POC, LGBT. Everyone will feel the impact of having evil at the head of your country.

But please keep in mind that you have survived worse, trans people have survived throughout history and no matter what anyone tries to do- they cannot wipe out your existence. There is not a world that can exist without you, don't deprive us of your survival.

Please protect your neighbours, protect your communities. When shit hits the fan, they're who you must rely on. Remember, you don't know anyone undocumented, you don't know anyone whose trans, you don't know anyone who's had an abortion, you don't know.

Stay safe, stay alive.

alright gang, the rumors are true. The Edge of Sleep is now live (US only ig) on Amazon Prime Video. and i get what some of y'all are saying, "there doesn't need to be marketing because of mark's rabid fanbase!"

But guys. Guys. This is not a YouTube project. I hate to say it but even 30+ million Markiplier fans is not enough for what needs to happen here, unfortunately. This is ultimately about breaking out of the YouTube-fanbase sphere and getting this show to mainstream viewership. That's the goal-- this is about showing that a "YouTuber project" (even though Edge of Sleep was made by a professional production company and isn't really that) can have appeal beyond a preexisting audience. It's about, big picture, legitimizing the contributions of online creators in making films and television products for casual viewers.

So yeah, it's time to break out not just The Plan, but The Strategy. What is that, you ask? You'll see--check back tonight. This is a call for all hands on deck.

We ride at sunset-- the edge between day and night when the world starts to go to bed. We ride at the edge of sleep.

to those of you who are moving here from tiktok, from someone whos used both tiktok and tumbr for years...

1. DO NOT censor your posts

dont censor sex, abuse, suicide, dont censor it. we dont have censors like tiktok does, you wont be banned for talking about these things and tagging them properly helps people avoid them (also, we dont have shadowbanning here)

2. we dont really have an algorithm

you follow who you follow, and you see posts from who you follow or what you search. the 'for you page' is basically useless here. this also brings me to my next two points

3. dont crosstag

we get it, on tiktok you have to crosstag for reach, but thats not really a thing here. just tag your posts properly (also posters often leave more info about the post in the tags!! and when you reblog stuff you can leave your own notes in the tags, kind of like the old "repost comments" on tiktok)

4. dont expect to go viral/be famous

"viral" isnt really a thing on here (at least not for the average blogger). your posts will probably get 2-10 likes and you wont get nearly as many followers than on tiktok. thats just how tumblr is

5. blocking is your best friend

tiktok is VERY discussion based, and while tumblr is much more discussion based than other social medias, its still not a good place for ragebait/discourse. dont interact, itll make your experience worse in the end, just block and move on

6. you cant go into someone elses house and start rearranging their furniture

this is tumblr, not tiktok. dont diss old tumblr users for how they use the site or try to change them, thats like going into someone elses house and trying to rearrange their furniture. we've been here longer and we're familiar with the site and its culture, either find your niche, adapt, or find a different app

Her wins are like "The boy I like asked me out! :)"

Her losses are like "I let my enemy rewrite the universe! Oopsie! :)"

remember seeing a post that said marinette was a girlfailure and just. no. she's just a failure (derogatory). her "wins" in the show are usually personal but her losses far outnumber all of that.

Yeah, like, “gilrfailure” is supposed to be the opposite of “girlboss”, a girl character that’s endearingly pathetic and pitiful. This is because it started off as a self-deprecating joke for women and girls online who didn’t see themselves as having the drive to become “girlbosses”. From there it snowballed into this idea of female characters that purposefully go against the girlboss mold to show femininity as more than just being a constant go-getter.

While Marinette is pathetic and pitiful, that’s only because the writers failed so utterly at making her a girlboss. There’s no deliberate subversion here. We are supposed to read Marinette as a girlboss, but she fumbles every single goal she had and the only reason she’s still around and kicking and dating the guy of her dreams is that the villain changed his mind about what to do when he won and the boy she was into changed his mind about who he was into and decided to pursue her instead. We aren’t supposed to laugh about Marinette getting the world destroyed and having Adrien just decide they’re dating one day; we’re actually supposed to view Marinette as winning here. The writers literally say so in the commentary for the season 5 finale.

I feel like the new “girlfailure” moniker being applied is either Maripologists trying to make every positive/quirky character trope apply to Marinette or them getting wise to the growing criticism of how much Marinette accidentally sucks at everything the writers insist she’s good at and are trying to turn that into a positive. It’s like “it’s okay Marinette isn’t the competent, intelligent hero we were told she is because failing is cute!”
