LET HER SPEAK

Okay so I see a lot of people joking about the Barbie YouTube channel, but listen.

The Barbie YouTube channel is meant for kids and stuff. She often talks about gender roles, mental health, sexuality, and a lot of other relevant things. But she talks about in a way that kids can understand. She’s helping kids understand that these types of things are natural. But that’s not all her channel is about, she still does YouTube like things, like makeup videos, friendship tags, and stuff like that.

What I’m saying is, Barbie’s channel is iconic and important and I stan her.

I know this is an unpopular character interpretation, but:

Fanon!Molly is much nicer than canon!Molly was, and I really wish more fanwork, meta, and fic for him didn’t downplay the fact that he could be a dismissive and condescending asshole at times.

I never really understood people who said Molly’s charisma score didn’t match how Taliesin was playing him – in my opinion, Taliesin was very much playing a character with a 10 Charisma. He had good intentions and thought he knew best, but he wasn’t great at communicating. He was also stubborn to a fault and bad at listening to other people’s points of view. The group conversation with Nott after Caleb tried to steal the scroll is a great example of this, as is his attitude toward and general dismissiveness of Kiri.

I just think all of those flaws made Molly a really interesting character, and it’s weird to me that fandom has flattened that so much. I’m not in any way trying to say he couldn’t be nice, there are plenty of examples of that too, but his foibles tend to be left out of fan memory of the character, which then misunderstands the whole of who he was. Perhaps it is part of coping with the character’s death (choosing to highlight and remember the best of him), but I wish we could honor the complexity of the character more.

not to be harry potter on main but i honestly think the fantastic beasts series would have been so much more interesting if it was just about the beasts. i don’t give a fuck about grindelwald, just give me a movie about an eccentric wizard travelling the world looking for magical animals and teaching us the power of friendship

newt’s character should have been like the crocodile hunter but in a wizard hat send tweet
