Tumblr Tuesday – 06/03/14

Tumblr Tuesday is back! The best of Tumblr is available here. I’m going through a small backlog, so it’ll take a few weeks to get this thing current.

— I compare Doctor Who writers Russell T. Davis and Steven Moffat to Kingdom Hearts, and it works better than you think.

— Buzzfeed usually sucks, but they’re surprisingly accurate here when it comes to the BS of working while young.

— I found a great tumblr that explores the animation in the Disney Afternoon shows. They’re doing Darkwing Duck now but I’m eager to see them explore other programs.

— Why is the “women are too emotional to lead” stereotype still a thing?

— DC Comics is now twelve years-old and wants you to take it super serious, you guys.

— Darkwing Duck is just goddamn funny, people.

— Tumblr discovers how sexual appeals affects how people respond to “gamer girls”.

— THIS GODDAMN STUNT THO.

Tumblr has been slow the past couple of weeks, but I managed to gather a few nifty ones for this week’s Tumblr Tuesday:

— Some observations on an episode of Darkwing Duck

— My own quick and dirty observations on the #CancelColbert nonsense

— A hilarious bit starring Steve Coogan

— Someone compared Parks & Recreation characters to Animal Crossing characters and it’s spot-on

— Someone else is schooled when misguided tumblr activism is applied to The Legend of Korra

— The difference between Buddha and Hotai, goddammit

— And finally, The Green Lantern Animated Series’ showrunner tackles the fallacy of test screenings in comic form
