this is the boy volcano. you can tell it’s a man because the song says so and also it has no tertiary sex characteristics, it just looks like a volcano. it’s a volcano with a human face
this is the girl volcano. you know she’s a girl because she literally has a pretty human face and long human hair and a high voice. if they didn’t make sure you knew she was a woman you might have thought these anthropomorphised volcanoes were Gay
Pixar’s Umbrella Heteros Short 2: This Time Its Volcanos
This post makes me so mad. The volcanoes are based on the Hawaiian musician Israel Kamakawiwoʻole (better known as Iz) and his wife Marlene. They were made specifically to resemble the couple, you fucking walnuts. This is why we can’t have nice things. You take everything beautiful and try to corrupt it with your shitty politics
This is Iz and Marlene.
He’s not just “that dude with the cover of Over The Rainbow” okay? He’s fucking important. He was a musician, yes, and he was an activist for Hawaiian rights and independence.
He used his music to promote awareness of the second class status of Hawaiian natives created by the tourist industry.
When he died, the Hawaiian state flag flew at half mast. His coffin (but not his body, he was cremated) lay in state at the state capitol building in Honolulu. Just the third person in Hawaiian history to be given that honor. And the only one who was not a government official. Ten thousand people attended his funeral.
He is a big important part of Hawaiian culture and history. So don’t get all social justice warrior about sexuality and gender when this is really about a culture and honoring the memory of people who are important to that culture.
Nice to see that mass murder and prison didn’t dim your spirit, Loki. 😉
I’d like to present Loki, God of Sass and Snark, everybody.
//Oh it didn’t dim his spirit but it changed the entire trajectory of his goals. Why continue to exist on Odin’s paradigm of worthiness when instead you can own who you were born to be, brilliant as a diamond, uncategorizable as water, fluid and clever and full of a skill most in your culture demean as “mere women’s work”? Own yourself. You are “the one thing in life you can control.” So when the haters come, to present their biased bersion of your own story, rebuke them with cool disdain and continue to be yourself. This is what makes Loki, an antagonist through and through, more an antihero than a villain. He has been an encouragement and inspiration to as many fans as each Avenger has, because of this turn in the trajectory of his character. That Loki is as sympathetic as any of the protagonists of MCU is a hilarious conundrum for Marvel’s execs. Nobody expected it, but here he is, a redefined character making his mark.
