This bitch right here! (Getting called a misogynist)

I left work and came home early, due to a lot of different things. The room was really sharp today and I didn't even feel good about that because of how people are addressing each other. well first of all, I walked in on my co-workers listening to a podcast by the biphobic piece of shit, himself, Dan Savage. We talked about that issue, and that was fine. I just knew that things were going downhill from there, even though my coworkers were super supportive.

the main event was when it got to my turn to do the checking, and I went into Halloween because that's my jam! I talked about Halloween costume ideas, and how I hate pre-packaged store-bought costumes. It's not that I even went on a tirade. I gave more attention to my costume ideas for the year. people talk about how expensive costumes are, but you can go to a thrift store and throw on some ensembles together to make a costume. I also learned about the term "closet cosplay", which I totally appreciate! and the last thing I said was "even if it's a catsuit put something on it that you did yourself or through together yourself and be a sexy cat!" and a person that I have had two less than 5 minute conversations with open need to boast how offended she was about how objectifying sexy cats are two women.

My complete thought was "even though a sexy cat is simple in generic, I have more respect for something that someone threw together rather than a preset store-bought costume, no matter how simple or run-of-the-mill it is." But this overly sensitive Sudan felt the need to turn my vague comment into a objectifying, misogynistic threat. And yes, those are the words that she used. Of course, I told her off at the table as quickly as she confronted me, but I have no appreciation for someone who is willing to publicly humiliate someone over some bullshit like this!

Adventure Time and puberty?

Unpopular opinion: Adventure Times discussion and handling of puberty was executed poorly.

I am in favor of leaving the topic of puberty to shows that are willing to fully discuss it and explore it across gender and sex spectrums.

Having the representation of a  white male that doesn't even know what it's like to be human, with a misguided mindset influenced by recent breakups and the loss of a limb and undesirable revelations of a long lost parent is a huge discredit to the audience.

Finn is also surrounded by mutants and/or aliens. looking at that particular episode from different types of angles, isn't so much about puberty as much as it is about making misguided decisions based on emotional and mental trauma. It's about vices and addiction, but mixed with puberty because the protagonist is a teenager.

and it was really nothing else they could do, because Finn smoking and drinking would have been too much for the target audience. but we have such a basic and misguided and very understated view of addiction and vices. A person can be addicted to literally anything. but addiction comes from a feeling of isolation. Even though Finn wasn't alone he felt alone and empty. I wish Adventure Time had just gone for that and did something else, rather than mixing it into the puberty scheme. and I kind of did with the tower, but the isolating attention-seeking could have done more than just trying to make out with everyone which turned into a puberty and underscored sexual thing.

Admittedly, there is no real PG13 way to handle puberty. It's an adult subject that adults don't experience. We experience things along before adulthood that we consider "adult content", and that's something we need to admit to ourselves and abolish to be able to properly educate people going through it and make the point clear.

Or maybe it would have been better if they had handled puberty singularly, and not mixed in the other heavy mental and emotional things that we're going on at the same time. But, with the way Adventure Time usually handled certain things, I feel like they should have left it alone completely.
