it's this idea that a female character is only strong if she rejects all feminine aspects and punches things. i kinda blame the superhero culture for this, at least this current iteration of it. Gamora, Black Widow, Wonder Woman - they're all basically stoic, straight talking tough chicks who are ridiculously lovey but it's of no consequence. But this ain't some feminist warcry - it's basically Hemingway's economy of emotion stuff, and it creates not strong females, but badass dudes with breasts. Hell, half of these marvel movies don't pass the Bechdel test or just barely scrape by.

love how CN feels that their filler shows need to be this unequivocally bland

- My Knight and Me
- TTG
- PPG

like they can't handle more than two great shows at a time

"we can't run a full series of Infinity Train and OK KO! at the same time as Steven Universe and Adventure Time! that wouldn't do well for our ratings!!!!!"

can we just have another cartoon renaissance please
