Petition for a Netflix series sequel also called Ned’s Declassified but now it’s like him but in his 20’s and helping us ppl who grew up with him through life as a young adult in the world
…but that’s literally what he does, just look up his name on youtube and you’ll see his channel
Omg Devon has a channel 😮 I gotta look it up
It’s legit. I never thought I could be so happy to relive my childhood through my adulthood
some things that horror movie culture has taught you are scary…. are just ableist
….clarify?
okay sure. psychosis? scarier to have than to know someone who has it. DID? im more a threat to myself than people around me. wheelchairs and psych meds? are tools that help people live more functional and flexible lives and are not judgments of the persons character and for sure are not scary things. and for real, intellectually disabled people are not threats, but movies love to make them villains because they act different and understand the world differently. and people with notable physical differences? people who’s bodies look different? people with scars, growths, amputations, etc? are literally just people. and seeing themselves painted like monsters on the big screen is absolutely sickening and damaging to how society will see them.
its not only bad writing but its extremely harmful to people who actually live with conditions that are misrepresented in media. when i found out i had DID, my mom freaked out because her only point of reference was Sybil. when i was younger and first went on psych meds, i thought it meant i was set on a track to be a bad person, because in so many movies and video games you find out the bad guy has medication in his bed side table for some sort of psych disorder. the worst thing a hallucination has ever made me do was wake my mom up at 3 AM to check my bathroom to see if the bugs i saw everywhere were real and the worst thing an “episode” of any sort has made me do is hurt myself. my ptsd doesnt make me kill people, my alters dont kidnap people, my autism doesnt make me so morally unaware that ill murder for senselessly, my ocd doesnt make me hurt people etc etc etc
literally the only “horror” is the ableism. and the only way you can write good horror about disability and mental illness is if the focus is on how society and the medical field treat us rather than focusing on how we are apparently so scary, threatening, and bad.

I was hesitant to post this because of the drama surrounding it, but I can’t keep this to myself anymore.
Many years ago, when Goblet of Fire came out (we’re talking… 2000 or 2001, I think?) I was a moderator at a now-defunct
Harry Potter forum.
When Nagini’s character was introduced, there was a girl on the forum (who we will call “Kate” for storytelling purposes, and also I don’t remember her name anymore lmao) who was CONVINCED Nagini was a human transfigured into a snake.
Now, the rest of the forum generally didn’t care about this theory. People pointed out that if Voldemort wanted to control someone, he would just do it. What’s the point of making them into a snake? Aesthetic? But Kate defended her theory.
“They say in the book she’s not like a regular snake! Don’t you think it’s strange they never say where she came from?” I can’t remember every point she made about it, but she really believed it.
“Suuuuuure, Kate!” we all said.
At the end of the day, we were all there to partake in fandom bullshit. We had a great time. But time passed, people moved on, and forums got deleted.
But when they revealed Nagini to be a “Maledictus” recently, my first thought was of Kate, even after all these years.
She got a few details wrong, but somewhere out there, a now-grown woman watched the Fantastic Beasts trailer, saw Nagini, and probably whispered “I fucking knew it” under her breath.
And I find that hilarious. Never let go of your crack theories, kids.
