The thing is with media is that you can’t really defend female characters’ right to wear makeup or look traditionally feminine because they aren’t real. they’re usually written by male writers who want them to look appealing to other men. those female characters don’t have agency. Scream weaponized femininity or for her “right to choose” all you want but she’s literally not real and her character probably isn’t groundbreaking for performing femininity
Sansa Stark begs to differ
she doesn’t beg to differ anything cause shes literally not real

The mbmbam live show questions are like. Sooooo good I love how uncomfortable they are it’s absolutely thrilling
Honesty nothing gets my pulse pounding like someone trying to be funny in front of their three idols as well as a packed auditorium combined with the brothers trying to navigate all of that discomfort and awkwardness while (usually failing) to remain witty and charming
every single live question: “Hi, I’ll be auditioning for the 4th brother today”

Guys, if you want to be a good artist and storyteller you need to absorb other media and influences beyond popular comics and movies and video games. Hell, even beyond visual art. Read novels, science articles, history books. Listen to podcasts, watch documentaries. Dip into different disciplines. Explore stuff outside your everyday. What you create and the pool of ideas you can pull out of is expanded by the knowledge you gain. Don’t do yourself a disservice by limiting your library. You never know when some weird shit you read about mushrooms could end up inspiring you or helping you solve a design/story problem.
