Being Inclusive vs. Being Authentic

Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 18, 2023




So for some reason my youtube is being besieged by rant videos over The Little Mermaid live action movie by Disney… AGAIN. You'd think the algorithm would know by now that I only watch ER skits and debunking videos, but here we are.

FEATURED COMIC --> She Used To Be Fractal

Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 1, 2023
