When just about every new show that comes out for the last few years looks specifically designed to appeal to the Tumbler crowd, including ultra fan service-y “shipping bait” between completely sexually unappealing characters. Bleak.
This is why we stray further from God’s light - you can’t let 15 yo socially awkward morons decide what’s supposed to be cool or the trends. Lol That cringey shit is supposed to be underground & pushed into a corner for good reason.

amounts of money into their merchandise. I swear character visualization & design these days is based entirely off that same energy you see in the trenches of Tumbler fandom. It’s all so ugly, lame, & low energy, while pretending to be woke.
