idk but because of this "what if the world was made of pudding" is my favorite response to use when someone proposes a ridiculous hypothetical like this

he was a minor when he went to college (supergenius n all) and had sexual relationships with multiple adult women there, a notable example being Sunset Bain who manipulated him into giving her sensitive stark information

its funny because he got his powers from an Accident With Mystery Chemicals (in 1941 he was a relatively early example of this trope) so its like what the FUCK were they working with in that chemical plant

present-day tony also has a clear dislike of her that we don't really see with the many other women he's dated who turned out to be evil

this isnt abt bigotry necessarily but my mind goes to people defending momo yaoyorozu's costume with "she designed it!! it lets her use her powers more easily!!!" like no a male writer decided these things.

yeah like once you make the racism even slightly reasonable you've fucked up. like in zootopia it makes sense for prey animals to be scared of predator animals who are bigger and stronger and better at killing than them

i read the comic this is from (adventure comics #389) and in the cover it seems like an open field but this scene is actually taking place in a cave inside a giant statue of a dragon floating in space

for context for people who haven't read this story, kid jason wanted to fix thomas wayne's old watch as a birthday present for bruce but couldn't get it quite right in time so he showed him he was working on it, and then leaves the repaired watch on the BM's hood as an adult

her thesis was about english-language writers making the conscious choice to say in their book that a character smells bad. so it's different from being like "that guy in the elevator smells so bad" vs saying "i just know he smells like shit" about someone you've never met

thats basically it yeah. its likely related to how things like multigenerational households are rare or even looked down upon in white communities (e.g. living with your parents past, like, your mid-20s is seen as shameful for some reason)

well theres the theory that "changelings" were just autistic kids right so yeah antivaxxers are the modern equivalent if that's true

he isnt the writer so i dont think it was his decision but the writer was like "erm i think a black person should write that" like ok but theyre not going to because youre the writer. make an effort

though honestly i thought it was pretty alright in elemental, but thats prob because it was inspired by the directors experiences as a 2nd generation korean immigrant
like them being fire and water feels more like a VISUAL REPRESENTATION of the conflict than the entire conflict

yup, Darkstalkers
it's a fighting game where the roster is predominantly composed of Western monsters and Western *cartoons* were clearly an inspiration as well

this thread actually gave me a deeper understanding of SU (i didn't watch Future so if this was explored there I wouldn't know), it didn't occur to me that this was why Rose rebuffed Pearl's affections (for lack of a better way to word it)

im also not sure how i felt abt jason being like "ur not my dad fuck you!!" obviously that's a normal and common reaction in this situation but i've always felt that jason specifically is so desperate for connection that he was ready to accept bruce as his new dad

the movie Rubber (the one with the tire that kills people) was partially inspired by the director going to a showing of one of his movies and realizing he was the only one there
