So, this is tumblr. Just trying all of this out. I want to share things that are dear to me, share them with all the people who will understand. Maybe you know me on another nickname ? Taradun or Anya M. Anyway... Welcome ~ Rianne/Elnöra 24....
Just passing by to leave the recent fanfiction I’ve been working on. If you’re a fan of Detroit : Become Human, maybe this will speak to you.
When a girl witnesses a murder, her life is threatened by the android who spotted her. Connor and Hank take her in hiding, in a place they both keep secret from everyone, and Connor volunteers to protect her. Living undercover with a curious and caring android is not easy.
I have crossed the horizon to find you. I know your name.
Okay but legitimately… this scene is so powerful in some beautifully subtle ways…
One of the tricks that filmmakers use to give an audience visual cues is that when somebody is in a position of power they walk from left to right - because that is the direction Westerner’s read, so it’s how we naturally view everything - and when somebody is in a place of weakness they walk right to left. It’s why when there’s a battle, the people who are going to win ALWAYS come from the left.
But this… Moana is coming from the right, and Teka is coming from the left. The water behind Moana is pale, while the water behind Teka is bright and vibrant - the bright blue and orange overpowering the pale blue and tan.
All of the visual cues are putting Moana in a place of weakness.
All of the visual cues are telling us that Moana is not going to win.
But that’s the strength of Moana… All throughout the movie she questions why the ocean chose her, and I think this very beautifully spells it out. She wasn’t chosen because she put a turtle into the ocean, or because she’s the daughter of the village chief, or because she’s descended from voyager.
The reason the ocean chose her is because when you put her in a position of weakness she will always turn that into a strength. The reason the ocean chose her is because she won’t back down when things are impossible, when the odds are against her, and when everything around her is signalling her imminent defeat.
Only a very special person could be so completely overpowered, and still be stronger than everything around her.
This is super random and not related to anything but; why do the heroes in movies stay on the phone while the villain threatens them??
It seems really obvious that the moment the villain goes into threatening mode, you should just like… hang up… Now ya don’t know what the villain was trying to get you to do, so any threat is inconsequential. The villain has to find a new way to get the information to you. You got more time to figure out how to defeat them. Win-win.
“I’m gonna-”
*CLICK*
*sinister surprised sputtering* “Did they just…HANG UP on me???”
Very angry about at least 3 things 1. Pedophelia is not equatable to being trans or homosexual because NEWSFLASH neither trans people nor homosexuals pride themselves in victimizing and taking advantage of children SEXUALLY. Being trans doesn’t put children in danger. Being homosexual doesn’t victimize other people. Being a pedophile does. 2. Pedophiles are taking advantage of social justice terminology and giving it a worse image than it already has 3. BEING GAY AND TRANS IS NOT EQUATED TO ASSAULTING CHILDREN!!!!! PEDOPHILIA SHOULD NOT BE NORMALIZED!!!!!!
PEDOPHILIA IF ENACTED IS A FORM OF ASSAULT!!!!!!!!!!
IT IS A LITERAL CRIME!!!!!!!!
A CRIME AGAINST CHILDREN IT SHOULD NOT BE AN NORMALIZED PRACTICE!!!!!!!!!
Patton Oswalt was so right when he said “the evil people are very adept at learning all the correct terms to fit in.”
Guys this refers to the “Clovergender” movement which was deliberately created by anti-trans/anti-LGBT/anti social-justice folks to deliberately discredit trans people, ESPECIALLY nonbinary trans people.
This is a deliberate, planned undermining. They are counting on the average person not being able to recognize that this DID NOT COME FROM OUR COMMUNITY.
Do not believe them. Do not support this. Make it clear where this came from. Make it clear that this is an identity deliberately created by the intolerant to make trans/nonbinary people look unreasonable.
