I hope Harold H is having a good day
My behavior caused other students and teachers to feel:
Freak out
guys this is from captain underpants, harold isn’t real! it’s all okay.
harold and george’s experiences of teachers berating and punishing them for drawing comics are based on the creator’s, dav pilkey, own life as a creative child with severe ADHD.
he is now extremely successful in the children’s book industry and still makes new content today! he’s a always been a big inspiration and source of enjoyment for me since i was little, as i always drew in class too. i just want u guys to know that this page isn’t real and is clearly from inside of a captain underpants book. 😅
hey so you are one of the very few people to discern this photo’s original context over 2 years after its been long removed, and for that i salute you
captain underpants is a superimportant series for exactly the reason you pointed out! i posted this in the first place because the then-new adult fan community was (and is!) full of neurodivergent people and i knew theyd find it #relatable
turns out it was a little too relatable cus its spread WAY beyond that circle and people keep thinking its a real form! its been weird and kinda worrying, but also it more than proves the point Dav was going for lmao. (he knows about it too btw, i told him on instagram)
its not too often that someone recognizes this as Dav’s work or realizes it’s satire on how neurodivergence is treated in the school system, but whenever someone does it completely makes my day – and you, tumblr user astrofruit, have just made mine.
captani underpans was a huge inspiration for my adhd/autistic ass back in school. im not sure id be the artist i am today if those books hadnt taught me to ignore the teacher and keep creating
Transed girls without access to healthcare be eating. Whoppy
Not the point but this is such an interesting example of the intersection between racism and medical pseudoscience and misogyny and fragile masculinity—written by someone with a financial stake in cow ag.
And it should scare you a little that there are people who will believe this, and that there are people in the notes trying to dispense actual dietary advice based on believing it.
Also hbomberguy did not only one but several videos discussing this whole “food estrogens” thing YEARS ago - it has nothing to do with human hormones and this shit is right wing logic af.
The whole soyboy saga if anyone’s interested in learning more about the difference between plant estrogens and mammal estrogens plus the people that pedal the lies about soy
a bunch of specific-body-part-fetish porn artists come together and draw a single character in their respective styles, each doing a single body part, creating the most terrifying image ever made by humans
