I’m having normal thoughts about Yang xiao long again and more specifically about how often it’s mentioned she raised ruby. She’s only 2 years older. 2. And she had to stop and raise her sister for at least a while until tai was stable enough and it makes everything about her and ruby even in earlier volumes that much more cutting to me.

Like she’s encouraging ruby to make some more friends and be independent and that’s likely due to how much Yang kinda wants to be her own person and not constantly in sister mode but it’s also because she loves ruby and wants her to be stable on her own too. How much of yangs early screen time is her saying how proud she is of ruby. It’s the fact she stares down her mother and her entire tribe and declares that nothing will get in the way of her getting to her sister. Yang holds ruby while she breaks down over their mother and spins her when they reunite and she shuts down completely when ruby ascends, Blake has to hold her up and Yang shrinks into her side.

Yang Xiao Long as a character is defined heavily by her family and how much of her identity has been built around being a sister and without her there Yang kinda starts to fall apart.

Love it when we see a group react and each person does it differently

hate when youtubers change the title and thumbnail on an existing video to drive new engagement. this is not my beautiful house this is not my beautiful wife.

eevee goes to pride

Sometimes the accidental trans allegory is so on the nose it's hard to believe it wasn't intentional.

There's really no other way to read this, Nano is transfem.

Something that I've always enjoyed about RWBY is that despite all the tragedy, hope has always stood firm as a theme for the show. Hope that things will get better, that Salem can be defeated, that the people of Atlas could be saved, that Ruby would still be herself...

Like, the show could have told us that hope doesn't matter. That bad things happen and they'll only get worse. And yet, it refuses to tell us that's the case. Vale and Atlas fall, team RWBY and Jaune are shunted off of Remnant, the world is practically ending, and yet hope is what persists.

A lesson we can all take as our own world feels harder to live in.

the concept of personal space does not exist to team rwby

Oh darn

Whoa, the special effects in Independence Day have held up amazingly.

Gotta compliment him on his reflexes. No hesitation. Just described exactly what he was seeing, regardless of what it was.
