    Spent a lot of time thinking about what makes a show "For Adults", especially in the animation space. I think the mark of a truly adult show is not just having mature themes, but being CONFIDENT enough in the portrayal of those themes that you don't handhold your audience through every icky scene.

    Trump’s presidencies have been almost nothing but a series of increasingly alarming, threatening episodes. But our elite class is jam-packed with fake Serious Adults who lack the intelligence or nerve to independently assess what Trump is doing and respond with an appropriate level of alarm.

    Seriously, it's crazy how their nostalgia for a barely-functional book series written by a hack somehow takes priority over actual human lives. Said it before, but even Disney Adults are able to show more of a spine & morality than HP fans. EVEN DISNEY ADULTS.
