  • They both claim things, but one side (Froot) has put forward receipts after a long time of being harassed over it and the other one hasn’t. This doesn’t smell like a ‘both sides’ case to me.

    Regarding the charity thing, indeed, but:

    • it was found out that the charity (Mermaids UK) might be doing unethical things
    • it was going to be her own money, not charity donations from her viewers

    I do think it would’ve been better if she then picked a different charity, but she was already getting harassed for even donating to a transfocused charity to begin with.











  • Finished Gundam GQuuuux. Even though I read in many places that was no prior knowledge was needed, I felt lost a lot of times. I don’t know the characters that were actually important in the end and I missed a looot of context. It felt more aimed at fans of the original. It assumed you know the world, the terms, power dynamics etc, but as someone that only watched Witch From Mercury, I did not know any of it.

    The characters that were posed as the leads were heavily underdeveloped, including their relationships to each other. I think they had potential (a duo of rebellious rich girl together with a refugee is an interesting dynamic to explore), but were shafted in favour of what felt like nostalgia bait. As a result, some of their actions made no sense to me.

    Animation was nice though.
