why are some teachers so insistantly aggressive about punishing children for having interests they dont understand?
I remember this shit happening while I was still in school too where anything that was really popular among young boys was instantly labelled a distraction that you could be punished for. pokemon, yu-gi-oh, beyblades, all of them were banned very quickly from my school and I remember on numerous occassions teachers calling them stupid and pointless and going on tangents about how they dont let their children engage in interests like that because it rots your brain. what was the deal? And the main excuse would always be that it was a distraction. Like yeah thats the point pricipal dr.deepshit, children cant be expected to be 100% focussed on their schoolwork for 8 hours a day. they need to have outlets to blow off steam because school is fucking hard. let kids like things you stank asses.
this is really it huh? millenials are old now. they can’t handle kids dancing just bc its from something they’re not into. bc its not aimed at them. congratulations you’re doing what you said you wouldn’t and are turning into your parents and grandparents. i know this is how it always goes but millenials were So Sure they’d break the cycle and look at them. mad at kids doing fun lil dances. shut up
i hope you dont mind that i put some of my headcanons in it

WHAT THE HAP IS FUCKENING

Plot twist: They built it themselves
hOW
Still my favorite post
this is great
This post never fails to make me smile, but it always makes me think. I know it started as a playful joke but look how people reacted! They joined on and added fanart. They were kind and respectful.
Now imagine this is someone (likely a kid) thats just starting to explore art! Imagine if we all reacted like this to their “ cringey ” ocs and wonky anatomy doodles!!! Do you know how happy and inspired they would be? I just wish more people built up young artists because if we keep criticizing them and telling them their art isnt good enough you know what thats going to do? Make them not want to create, be ashamed of what they do, and feel bad about liking things.
I would rather take 15-20 mins out of my life to sketch somebodys oc then take 2 seconds and post a hurtful comment
To all the young artists out there: KEEP DOING IT, FLOOD EVERY PLATFORM WITH YOUR FAVORITE OCS,DRAW YOU AND YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTERS, DRAW WHAT YOU WANT TO DRAW, WE ONLY HAVE SO MUCH TIME ON THIS EARTH I DONT WANT YOU TO WASTE IT ON WORRYING ABOUT NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH
this is so pure oml
now watch as something like this never happens again
I’m going to do something like this just to prove you wrong. Just you wait.
So i don’t see a lot of people talk about this, but-
Liking bands like Linkin Park, Evanescene, or Owl Coty isn’t cringy.
Linkin Park is fucking awesome, their songs hold powerful and meaningful messages. Evanescene has a lovely voice, her music is fucking rad. Owl City is creative, calming, and beautiful. Music isn’t fucking cringy just because people turned it into a meme, ridicules it, and makes fun of it. Enjoy your fuckin songs, man.
I was in 1st/2nd grade grade when the big Pokémon boom of the late 90s-early 00s happened. It was HUGE. Every kid was into it and we’d watch the show and play pretend and collect the cards and bring our game boys to school to trade Pokémon during recess. I was lucky to have supportive parents, but I remember how teachers and other adults would scoff and say how tired they were of Pokémon, how annoying and juvenile it was and how they couldn’t wait for us to “get over it already”. I might have been young, but I still remember how much these kinds of comments bummed me out. Why in the world are we being mean to little kids who like Fortnite
Why are you comparing pokemon to fortnite???
Because… Fortnite is very popular amongst children at the moment? And there are adults who dismiss it in the same way other adults did when Pokémon was big, calling it stupid, saying the dances are annoying, how much they can’t wait for the “fad to be over”, etc. It’s pretty much the same scenario.
Fortnite has a lootbox system that is glorified gambling, and can cause patterns of addiction in even adult minds, and that is in fact its intended goal in order for the game to make money from microtransactions. That’s how all games with lootboxes function. That’s how they draw in their customer base and squeeze more money out of them.
Like, I don’t judge kids who enjoy Fortnite. My little cousin plays Fortnite.
But last week, my little cousin also stole his mother’s credit card and spent about a month’s salary on microtransactions without his parents’ knowledge.
Modern gaming has become vile and predatory in ways that we didn’t have to deal with as children.
And we shouldn’t be mean to children about this, but we should definitely be coming down on these companies like a pile of fucking bricks.
Delicious.
Finally, some PROPER FORTNITE CRITICISM
Drawtober Day 5: Static
This is my Pokesona, Aka. He bleeds rainbow sparkle blood and has an edgy backstory because fuck cringe culture, we make edgey-ass OCs like men.
