i’d be really curious to know what percent of queerbaiting is
a) an intentional marketing scheme to stir interest in the project and attract certain fanbases (lgbtq people and young women) vs.
b) members of the creative team genuinely wanting to write queer characters but the corporate side of things force them to tone it down but they still leave little hints vs.
c) they legitimately did not know how gay something would come across
The legends themselves!
Yknow what I like about Ninjago is that you could headcannon the ninja as any Ethnicity/Race/Skin tone and they wouldn’t be considered invalid.
Like if you told me a headcannon that Zane is a pale, White, Russian man I would be like “yeah I see it” but if you told me he was deep-toned (high melanin), black man with Russian blood is be like “yeah that also makes sense)
Personal headcannons (it’s okay you can disagree, I’ve had my fair share of disagreement so do you):
Kai:
Asian, Japanese and/or Chinese
Warm toned Fair-medium skin
Medium brown or golden eyes
Nya:
Asian, Japanese and/or Chinese
Neutral-warm toned fair skin
Medium brown or golden eyes
Lloyd:
Asian, Japanese (maybe some English blood?)
Neutral toned fair
Green eyes (emerald or forest green)
Jay:
White/Caucasian, American, Scottish, and/or Irish, maybe he could also be Canadian
Cool-neutral pale-fair skin
Blue eyes (electric blue) or Grey eyes (maybe a mix of both)
Cole:
White, Hispanic, Latino, European, could be from Europe (Italy, Spain, Portugal), or could be from central-South America (Mexico, Puerto Rico, Brazil, Columbia, Argentina, etc.) or could also be North American as well.
Neutral tone medium-dark skin (default: Neutral pale-fair, and/or fair-medium)
Green, Grey, Medium Brown, or Hazel eyes
Zane:
White (default headcannon: Black), Russian, default: African blood, possibly a mix with Russian), Canadian
Cool toned pale skin (default: cool toned deep)
Blue eyes (icy blue)
Either way, all headcannons are valid!!!!!!!
My dear lgbt+ kids,
- “If you were really gay, you’d have sex with me. Are you sure you’re not actually straight?” is not helping you find the right label, it’s manipulating you into sex and that’s abuse.
- “I accept your asexuality but I have needs. You need to give me blowjobs at least.” is not a compromise. It’s demanding you to perform a sexual act and that’s abuse.
- “You’re bi and that means you’ll cheat on me if I let you hang out with guys!” is not the cute kind of jealousy. it’s controlling who you spend time with and that’s abuse.
- “I know you go by them/they but I’m angry at you, so I’ll call you he today.” is not a normal little fight. It’s using your dysphoria against you and that’s abuse.
- “If you don’t do what I want, I’ll tell your mom you’re trans and she’ll kick you out” is not a normal little fight, either. It’s using a vulnerable situation to manipulate you and that’s abuse.
- “You’re lucky you got me, nobody else would love someone as complicated and weird as you” is not a love confession. It’s trying to make you feel dependent on them and that’s abuse.
All of those sentences are examples of someone using your identity against you. That’s not acceptable behavior and is not the way you deserve to be treated.
With all my love,
Your Tumblr Dad

Oh boy I have some bad news for you.....
Please Blue Sky don't kill Wendy I'm begging you don't. I don't Walter to be sad due to his mom being dead.
On March 25th 2012, the same day my sister turned 19, Edd Gould passed away to Lukemia, a cancer in white blood cells. He was a fun, whimsy comic artist who’d detail the shenanigans the fictional version he and his friends would endure. He was 23 years old.
I was 10 years old when he passed. I’m now 23 years old, and it’s incredibly unfathomable how long it’s been since his passing. I used to look forward to coming home and watching his eddisodes. I still remember always checking if Space face would finish. He was, and still is the reason I fell in love with animation (especially indie) and comic art.
Rest in Solace Edd Gould. Just know your world is spinning, and we miss you everyday ❤️
