tired: the girl ends up with the geek because he's nice to her, unlike the big mean jock
wired: the girl ends up with the caring himbo jock because the geek feels entitled to her after being raised on movies that told him he should be rewarded with sex for not being good at sports, and is super creepy and gross as a result
inspired: the girl shirks the heteronormativity of the genre, joins a girl gang to find herself, discovers a talent for arson, and ends up dating the girl gang's leader and kissing her in front of the geek's burning house
The detached head from the toppled racist John A. Macdonald statue in Montreal has been immortalized as a postage stamp. Some mischievous government workers managed to get this printed through Canada Post’s Picture Postage program, which allows people to put their own photos on usable stamps.

@catgoat oh for sure!! I myself really didn't get interested in the plot until around chapter 35, I would say that chapter/arc is the catalyst that starts the transformation in tone and plot for the rest of the series
although, I bet some fans would argue that the tone *officially* changes when the "back-alley"/black market is introduced in ep6/ch 22
Beastars | anime/manga | spoilers
I've got an ominous feeling a lot of people only like Beastars right now because it seems like "furry boarding school teen drama" and...
...it's not
Those elements exist, but they don't last. The high school is very much a temporary setting to a much larger more complicated adult world with characters that can't be split into binaries, or refuse to do so
I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed s2 onward when they find that out :\
@cassolotl PDA seems more intense, and more of a social reaction?
Based on what little I know about the 2, executive dysfunction sounds more like an personal internal struggle "why can't I get started on this?", while PDA seems more like a more frustrating mixture between "I don't know how" and "I don't want to" external reaction to being asked to do something by someone else? ? ?
