I think becoming a Boring Adult (complimentary) is not about no longer feeling joy at the big and whimsical things, but about the scope of the things that make you happy widening. Like today I got a new soap scent! Fresh linen!!!! Isn't it a beautiful thing for that to make someone so happy?

the nicest thing you can wish upon an artist in 2026 is that their work gains a small but dedicated cult following of kind hearted and politically shrewd weirdos & sickos that keep the fire going. the meanest thing you can wish upon an artist in 2026 is that their work gains a large online fandom

two reasons for why I've seen this is the case 1) is that the current state of the world is shit and shoujo started reflecting more escapist fantasies accordingly 2) it seems like the content in shoujo faced more scrutiny around the mid 00s due to its more explicit nature and there were imposed laws
