I mean Henry, Toby, Percy, Emily… That’s *half* right there. And “sometimes” is giving Percy a lot of credit. He’s got like maybe two good roles where he’s not just Widdle Uwu Babey. Thomas is a bit of a mixed bag because they are very inconsistent with him and just kinda make+

him whatever they need to for a story, so sometimes he’ll be fine, other times not so much. But in all fairness that’s how he’d been for a while so it’s not new to this era. Gordon and James though are perhaps the biggest offenders. It isn’t as though they *aren’t* dicks in +

other eras, but they were capable of having roles and moments where they showed other sides to them. But in this era they’re *always* in intolerable asshole mode, except for the ends of a story where they learn their lesson, and sometimes not even that. And then they go back to +

being entirely unlikable next episode too. And I would argue, even further than their classic counterparts. I cannot picture classic James pulling the shit he does in TOTB, even in the circumstances of that movie.

Comparing them to like, the HiT Era portrayals, yeah I’m not gonna go and claim the HiT Era had like super deep and nuanced character writing. Things were intentionally kept very simplistic then. But they were at least willing to give us moments of levity from the characters’ +

usual schticks. Gordon can be a grumpy boastful asshole, but he can be kind and helpful too. And it’s not as though they have to erase his personality to do that. Even in just incidental supporting roles where he’s just One Of The Three Strikes, they’ll always give him something+

why is this news lol

Wait, I JUST realized something. This storyboard shows Junior stuffing gold dust down James' funnel. This storyboard shows JUNIOR stuffing something down someone's FUNNEL. Think about it

Is Day of the Diesels the best Thomas production to majorly feature Diesel 10? Because it's definitely not TATMR, it's definitely not TMCD, and I used to like CAE more than DOTD, but while I still like CAE, I decided I like DOTD more about a year ago. so yeah I guess it's DOTD

GoldenLine D10 is so freaking good in this movie, i love the manipulative role he takes

Express Wea_64 🖤🤎 The way he's animated too, both through his facial expressions and through Pinchy. So fun to watch whenever he's onscreen.

“…You’re not on fire?” is just funny asf idk what to tell you

Zohran giving a run around response instead of saying he will overturn it immediately once is office is all the proof you need that he is a zionist

You literally work for the world’s largest terrorist state who is actively committing genocide and erasing an entire population. You work for the state who has killed many diplomats in the last 2 years with impunity. Israel has no right to exist- and never did. The oppressors

New libels just dropped

I’m sorry this has me CRYING

Based purely on how annoying their populations are, which is worse?

A couple weeks ago, I watched all the Toy Story movies, and when I get to the stairs/yard sale part of TS2, I was like:

I still wonder about this
