"Kind of weird and random, but I imagine Donnie being a bit sexist/misogynistic in his early years of mutation/his childhood, but when he met April, he grew out of that."

"Ghost Bear irritates the f*ck out of me to be for reals. He’s mad at the Mad Dogs for “ruining his pro wrestling career”, when it was his own fault lmao 😂"

"The fact that they cut out the scene where Donnie learns he DIES in the future really sucks. I get that they probably had to cut it for time or something like that but at the same time, all of the futures of the turtles were simultaneously important in my opinion. I feel like we should’ve learned at least a bit more about ALL their futures in the Krang timeline."

"I like to think that the reason Donnie didn't have his own mini-montage in "The Clothes Don't Make The Turtle" episode was because 1). He was too busy helping his bros out with their clothes and 2). He slays in every outfit he chooses. I like how he'd also look the most natural in clothes due to his thin shell."

"I feel like one of Rise and most fandom's problems is that I think a great percent of fandom is always young, impressionable minds whether they're kids or chronically online teens that are not mature enough to realize to let things let live or learn how to ignore something they don't like.

There's times to speak up on serious issues but I believe that certain opinions and beliefs should be expressed on real-world issues on real people instead of a fictional world and fictional characters.

Consume media properly, kiddos and learn to filter and stop purposely seeking out content you'll be upset about. It's not the end of the world if people want to be romantic with a literal talking mutant ninja turtle. Go after the real creeps lurking and talking to real minors. Don't blame the media since the way one reacts to the media they consume is the one at fault and not the one that posts."

"I think this fandom need to realize that the blocking button exist. It's not fair to invalidate other people's fun and experiences just because you don't like something that they do (or created). If you don't like something of theirs (whether it be art, fanfics, ship, whatever hell), even scroll pass or block them, that's it. But apparently fans don't want to do that, they just want to tell people what to do or ship, which in that case, grow up. It's not always about you."

ROTTMNT fandom wiki Donnie surrogate brother and April surrogate sister do not exist was once error. The relationship between Donnie and April is one of friendship and camaraderie. They are not blood brothers, but teammates and close friends. Donnie and April have a relationship based on friendship and mutual support. They work together as members of the same team and share a close bond, but they are not blood brothers. This dynamic is consistent with the other TMNT series, where their relationship ranges from friendship to romantic interest on Donnie's part, but never as blood brothers.

a ship being canon doesn't automatically make it good or healthy

Fandom Problem #4751:

The way some people go "I hate this character, therefore they MUST be straight and homophobic" is honestly just childish and super unnecessary. Even worse when these same people get mad when you don't agree it. Even if the character is canonically straight, you just can't they're a canon homophobe without proof just because you don't like them.

Today’s Frosta of the Day has been brought to you by: "And I'm really, really worried about Glimmer and the Rebellion in general, really".

Fandom Problem #4752:

"The only reason you don't ship it is cause you're homophobic!" No, i promise you that if you changed around the genders so that they were a straight couple, I still wouldn't like them. I would still ship my ship if they were two guys or two girls or two NBs, because I ship them because I think they're the best people for each other. I don't ship based on what's gay or what's straight.

Fandom Problem #4510:

Listen, I understand that the handling of a queer relationship being "rushed" isn't always the writers fault, maybe they WANTED to do more but they're dealing with network censorship, yada yada. The thing is I could understand and appreciate what they were TRYING to do but it still doesn't mean I HAVE to like it. Sorry, but a hetero pair with a strong bond is better to me than a gay pair where both people feel like strangers to each other. It's not "internalized homophobia" to prefer the better-developed romance.
