jitterbug-jive asked: School counselors are a frikking sham, I swear to god. It's like they dropped out of med school and decided to opt for the easy job where essentially every problem can boil down to "you're just stressed from school but try harder 8D"
I called one of mine out on their poor handling skills when I was 11 when I was being bullied and that got her to work slightly more.
They are always like “Just ignore the bullies” and I was usually like “Okay, I will just ignore the people who constantly hit me. Yeah fuck no”
I figured out in middleschool that it doesn’t matter if someone has a broken leg. If they start hitting you with a crutch, you should grab their crutch and hit their broken leg hard.
lunateluminosity asked: And Alex Hirsch has definitely been trying to put in LGBT stuff. In the original storyboards for the Love God's introduction scene, he sets that old lady up with another old lady. It didn't make it through, but he's definitely been trying.
You’re right! Here are the storyboards. Pasted below are the relevant ones.
Alex Hirsch got in an adorable lesbian old lady couple up to the storyboards before it got censored.
One day, Alex. One day.
I’d like to add a little more to this, if you don’t mind.
In the storyboards, we see the love god wearing this necklace:
The symbol on the necklace is a symbol often used in the trans* community; the symbol in the upper left is used to denote transgender/gender-variant people:
He’s seen wearing this necklace throughout the storyboards, including his first entrance:
However, in the end it did get censored:
As you can see, it got change to a necklace with two pendants, denoting only male and female:
Another example:
Yes, it did get censored, but I am amazed and delighted that people in the industry I want to work in are supportive and want to bring a positive, fun light to the LGBT+ community. It’s really awesome that Alex Hirsch and the team working on the show (i.e. Sabrina Cotugno, the board artist for this episode) had tried to make the LGBT+ community a part of Gravity Falls; thank you so much for that, Gravity Falls!
it’s okay, Alex, one or two more years of stunning success and Disney will be forced to bend to your will.
patience and persistence.
Alex will be able to get away with this soon enough because it’s the only show on disney that people watch and disney cannot afford to have it pulled.
a puppy or kitten is a 15-year commitment. this holiday season, don’t give one as a gift unless you know the person is ready for that. don’t give them to children who are going to get tired of it when it gets bigger. too many animals end up in the pound in january.
Happy birthday to Piet Mondrian, who was born in Amersfoort, Netherlands in 1872! Mondrian is best known as the creator of perhaps the most rigorously abstract paintings of the first half of the twentieth century. Working with only the most basic elements-straight lines and primary colors, he strove to create pure objective art that he believed would change the world.
