I hate it when people flip their lid about headcanon-ing autistic characters or autistic coded characters as ace. Like. Asexual autistic people exist. I’m one of them. Stop telling me I can’t headcanon things about my own disorder, that’s really fucking annoying. I don’t care if it’s a “"harmful stereotype”“ (hint: it isn’t, y’all just hate ace people) I am a part of that fucking stereotype and trying to tell me that it’s ”“bad”“ or ”“problematic”“ erases the fact that ace autistics exist. We are not bad. We are not problematic. We are not a stereotype. We’re people living our lives and trying to relate to characters just like all the trans and gay headcanons out there.
the subplot of megamind involved a creepy fuckboy thinking that by becoming a superhero, he’d automatically get the girl he was obsessing over.Â
the subplot of megamind involved sexism and male entitlement to an obscene degree. the moment roxanne rejected hal he snapped and decided to obliterate the city and take whatever he wanted.
the subplot of megamind involved an outright commentary on the BS that women put up with in their daily lives. roxanne brushing off the creepy comments of her coworker because that’s the best she can do.
I love this so much and want to add that Megamind never once called himself the “nice guy” or complained about Roxanne and why she didn’t choose him. When they’re together, he respects her space, her mind, and her time. And when he’d deceived her and she called him out? He didn’t fight her on it. He recognized his mistakes.Â
Megamind is a nice guy. But he’s not a “nice guy”. He goes out with a woman he loves and respects, just as she goes out with someone she loves and respects. This movie, summed up, is about the relationships we have and the ones that we don’t, for good and bad reasons.Â
concept: a gender reveal party where a bunch of blue smoke bombs go off and everyone’s like “it’s a boy!” but a bunch of ninjas emerge from the smoke and just go ape shit on all the party guests
