Hey, I appreciate that you took the time to think and actually recognized what you'd been doing! All too unusual these days :3
Despising her for her lack of character is 100% valid and I think most trans people in the US at least do too, besides the very few right wing trans folks.

Caitlyn is not above reproach. All the trans people who have told you to respect her name have also said they hate her guts.
Deadnaming a trans person is very equivalent to using a slur; it denies their personhood in a way we cannot be complicit in if we ever hope to be a compassionate society.

How would you feel if an angry family member justified their decision to misgender your child by saying "well they voted a way I didn't like"? I don't care how awful her politics are (and they are, yes) it does not give a free pass to disrespect her identity like that.

Deadnaming a trans person, no matter how gross of a person, is still deadnaming a trans person. Any trans people who see you do this, especially enthusiastically, will rightfully not trust you.

No, it's not. It's not okay to deadname trans people for any reason.

I tend to agree, a rewatch made it sit significantly better for me. It's likely to be something I eventually do marathon watch parties for, cuz it's just that good

Whatever complaints anyone may have about the story/character writing in the second season, it's still a nearly unprecedented work of art (I also think if they were in a lesser show, the few flaws people point out wouldn't even be noticed). And season one is a masterpiece, full stop.

There are numerous hints that she is likely still alive, and I happen to agree with you and believe it's thematically better if she lives but leaves Piltover/Zaun either for good or for a very long time

There's also Pentakill for folks who enjoy metal :3 three albums of actually solid metal music with some well-known people guesting

My guess for the reasons they don't include some combination of the champions they selected not being as popular (Senna and Qiyana are some of my personal faves but they're no Ahri), the music not appealing to the Korean fans as much, and just plain old racism (which impacts the others too)

I always thought it was unfortunate that True Damage didn't get more popularity, because I found it musically even more interesting than K/DA!
I do suspect a couple of reasons for that though

Seriously. The only thing I know for sure at this point is that it's not going to be good

Could they have done some things better? Probably.
Could a lesser show have wrapped those same set of plotlines/characters up even that nicely in the very limited time they had? Almost certainly not.
And I'm of the firm opinion that season 1 is still a legit masterpiece of animation.

Yea, but the thing that I always try to remember is: you can still enjoy it just as much! There's no obligation on you to only enjoy things that have no problems.
And whatever else people might say, there is *zero* arguing with the fact Arcane is artistically impressive.

I mean, in this case it's at least slightly explainable by the circumstances, if you squint

I keep having that happen, where I see a woman doing or being something that stereotypically is really attractive to straight women and then I'm suddenly like "ohhhhh I get it, I'm just a lesbian but these things are *really* hot"

I totally understand this reaction, I think it took me most of the past month to fully process it

Was at a show but now that I got back to this thank you!!! She's so hot
I can kinda understand why straight women like Aragorn so much

They remind me a lot of me and my gf actually, I'm taller and more reserved normally, and my gf is shorter and more willing to get in the middle of things. She definitely leans service top and I'm a relatively princessy bottom, which I could see being their dynamic too

I'd believe that!! She's always been too guarded with previous lovers to let them take control, even if somewhere deep inside she wanted that, but she has so much trust in Vi that she allows her to take control. Also, Vi is clearly so hopelessly devoted that she just wants Cait to feel good

Okay now I want Vi as Aragorn though, preferably in his rugged Ranger look

Well, and also just by how they animate basically all the women in the show
My sapphic heart can barely take it between Vi, Ambessa, and Sevika being strong as hell, and Mel and Cait being gorgeous and clever
