“you can go read other reviews about how great the narrative fiction is already in this podcast. but i'm here reviewing for another reason.
THERE IS A CANON NONBINARY CHARACTER WHO USES THEY/THEM PRONOUNS. THEIR NAME IS MOD AND I LOVE THEM. as a nonbinary person myself (who also uses they/them pronouns), i started shaking and crying when i heard them introduce themselves in episode 2. and they weren't misgendered for the whole rest of the episode!!!!!!! and the director person stood behind them when nikki questioned it!!!
i just don't think most people realize how HUGE this is for me and for all nonbinary people. i have to be up front about my pronouns EVERY DAY with new people, as mod so eloquently says, "just so it doesn't get weird later." i also work in the sciences and i don't know of any other out trans people in the entire chemistry department at my gigantic public university. JUST HAVING A CANON NONBINARY CHARACTER AND HAVE IT JUST TAKEN AS FACT AND THEN HAVE THEM TREATED LIKE A HUMAN PERSON FOR THE REST OF THE TIME IS...... i'm just crying because i've never known what it was like to see a nonbinary character in pop culture, ESPECIALLY ONE SO OPEN ABOUT USING NEUTRAL PRONOUNS!!!
this brought me so much joy. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU TO THE WRITERS AND VOICE ACTORS FOR "THE MESSAGE" AT PANOPLY & IN PARTNERSHIP WITH GE. I CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW MUCH THIS MEANS TO ME. I WANT TO GIVE ALL OF YOU A GIGANTIC HUG. YOU ROCK!!!”Read full review »
