I understand that it’s funny that a fly landed on pence, but I implore you all to listen to what he’s saying: he claims that there is no implicit biases within the criminal justice system against POC in America.
The right not only does not care about the issues of mass incarceration, over policing, and police brutality, but they actively deny the existence of any such issues, especially in conjunction to racism.
opinion: no series or story ever will ever have as perfect an intro as over the garden wall, and it does it in two lines and a song
you start with a frog playing piano. you are instantly intrigued. you get given a really cool intro song that plays perfectly on the notes of like, autumn nostalgia? it’s pretty and slow music, showing you images you haven’t seen before but the tone makes it feel like stuff you’ve forgotten, things on the tip of your tongue, rather than stuff that’s entirely new
we then have the narration, that’s like, storybook shit, you think ah yes i know where this is going, this is the feeling i was just having
this is furthered by the creepy but still fairytale style woods
and then we have greg’s first line which is literally just the list “antelope, guggenheim, albert, salami, giggly, jumpy, tom, thomas, tambourine, leg face mccullen, artichoke, penguin, pete, steve” and with every new word added you’re trying to guess what the fuck he’s listing and how this has anything to do with the setting you thought you knew, it puts you completely on the back foot but you’ve gotta find out what it is now
but nothing prepares you for the moment greg goes “but i think the very worst name for this frog is-” and that’s the kicker. bc it’s ridiculous and its funny and it tells a whole story and makes you look at the whole thing in a new light and sets an incredible tone for the story before we know anything about the characters or even reach a single plot point
(i mean otgw continues to live up to that tone and even surpasses it which is what makes it such a good series despite being so short but yeah nothing else pulls you in this quickly in quite the same way and i love it)
Hey so I’m hyped that Trump’s gone and all but let’s just remember that things don’t magically get better from here on out - we have to keep working for them.

Keep believing women.
Keep working to make our society more fair, just, and accepting of all.

this was requested by a discord I’m in
While Janus was out helping Logan and the others the reason Remus and Virgil stayed behind was because of Just Dance.
Janus had been the reigning champion for way to long, it was an agreement every time he was out they had to try and beat it.
Not once had they beaten it.
What really rubbed salt in the wound was the fact that when Janus came back he’d always beat his score, just to make sure that it was never beaten.
It infuriates them to no end, they try everytime
Virgil has been caught on numerous occasions staying up all night trying to beat the score
The wii remotes have to be locked away otherwise Remus will try to eat them. so It’s primarily Virgil who has to try and beat it but Remus will step in when Virgil is close to collapsing from exhaustion
The only thing stopping them from Getting Roman to help is pride
Remus refuses and Virgil doesn’t want to make Roman’s ego any bigger by asking for help.
They also know if Roman finds out Janus is the best they will either team up and be unstoppable or they will tear each other apart
But then Patton arranged a just dance night
it goes about as well as you’d expect, Logan just reads his book, sometimes commenting but mostly ignoring them
Virgil teams up with Remus, Janus goes on his own and Patton and Roman team up.
Janus destroys Roman and it starts
they play all night and well into the morning
There’s shouting and anguished screams when a movie is missed
They both collapse after almost 24 hours for Just Dance
When they wake up there’s a new high sore, much higher then either Roman or Janus’s last high score.
No one admits to the “Crime”
But deep down Remus and Virgil know it was Logan
Because Logan had just wanted to read his book, and was disturbed
