I think I'm coming down on the "they should blend the Gunnverse and the Reevesverse" side of the conversation. Superman and Batman SHOULD feel like they exist in different worlds. They should be able to maintain their own tone while having the freedom to tell their own stories.

@AnoneySFWtan @CrossFadedTeto What's the difference though?

We're nearing DeviantArt autism stereotype levels of overcrowded at this point, but I appreciate Santa Claus and Robin Hood both leaving, implying the former departure isn't for play-along memes but from learning through your own that mythology =/= fiction.

Updated it to have y’all suggestions

@isabellaamidala Not trynna be weird but what statue is this about?

me: i just think it’s weird that they decided to make a statue of a 14 year old girl with noticeably enlarged breasts men in my comments: you’re just jealous!!

Don't let your neighbors become complacent

Basically every Israel-Palestine debate goes like this: "Israel did X." "Yeah, because the Palestinians did Y." "Yeah, because Israel did Z." "Yeah but only because the Arabs did A." But if you bring the debate back far enough in time, eventually you get to the part where the western world forcibly dropped a brand new ethnostate on top of a pre-existing civilization without the permission of — and to the extreme detriment of — the people who were already living there. Sure you can go further back and say "Oh yeah well the Jews lived there thousands of years ago," but that's just silly. There's no valid reason to believe some Jewish guy in New York City even has any meaningful lineage connecting him to that land more strongly than any random Muslim in Turkey or wherever, and even if there was, it would still be absurd to cite ancient history as the basis for a territorial claim. I'm only a few generations removed from my ancestry in Ireland and Scotland, but it would be ridiculous for me to show up demanding the home of someone who lives there. So the original source for the grievance is clearly the artificial creation of an ethnonationalist state in the mid-20th century, and the push by Zionists and western imperialists to make it happen. And how has that decision worked out? You see the results before you. Generations of nonstop violence and abuse, culminating in the slaughter and chaos throughout the middle east today. This means that creating Israel was a mistake. A mistake that needs to be corrected. Zionists will collapse into a shrieking pile of vitriol and hyperbole when you say this, claiming you're calling for the extermination of Jews, but this is false. Certainly ending a national order premised on putting the interests of Jews before Palestinians and righting the wrongs of the past would inconvenience a lot of the Jewish people who've been living there, but there's no basis for the claim that it would entail their deaths. Apartheid South Africa was dismantled without the extermination of millions of white people, and there's no reason to believe the dismantling of apartheid Israel would entail the extermination of Jews. The Israel experiment has been tried, and it has failed. It is time to try something else.

@straczynski I can't believe I'm correcting the guy who wrote the first Spider-Man comics I read, but... didn't Peter canonically only have a Bachelor's Degree at this point? He dropped out of his Master's program (twice) and then could get a high school teaching job with just the Bachelor's.

He doesn't hold a ton of degrees, but he does have his masters' degree from ESU and more than enough work experience (lab scientist, research assistant, and others) to qualify for a high school gig.

@AFragginCzarian Damn, I thought he was yelling at her as an excuse to storm out and go check it out as Spider-Man, but no he's straight up trying to manipulate her 😂

he's such a manipulative dick lmao

@shantplace All these words to repeat one of the most well- known belief-suspensions of the Spider-Man story...

THE “14-YEAR-OLD SPIDER-MAN” DETAIL THAT DOESN’T ADD UP 🤔 - When Spider-Man meets Iron Man for the first time, he is 14 years old. - Despite being so young, Spider-Man is able to create highly advanced web shooters. - He builds these web shooters without proper knowledge or advanced technology. - His chemical webs are extremely strong. - However, realistically, a 14-year-old child should not be able to create such high-tech web shooters. - Because of this logic, Tobey’s Spider-Man was given natural (organic) webs. - The director of the Spider-Man movie stated that a 14-year-old wouldn’t have enough knowledge to create such advanced web shooters without technology. - Therefore, Tobey’s Spider-Man was designed with natural webs to make him feel more realistic. - This is also why Tobey’s Spider-Man is considered the most different version.

@mask_bastard @Tequila_sunse_t @GOATtoonmoments There's nothing inherently conservative about that. If the Shire was a queer polyamorous socialist commune (which it's not NOT) then he would still be fighting to protect it.

@Tequila_sunse_t @GOATtoonmoments Sam helps carry the ring to protect what’s good in the shire, not replace it. What’s more conservative than that?

Why aren’t there more conservative heroes in science fiction and fantasy?

@mask_bastard @GOATtoonmoments All heroes are about sacrifice and never giving up. Conservative heroes are about punishing badguys, preserving order, and defending against dangerous outsiders.

@GOATtoonmoments Conservative heroes are about sacrifice and never giving up.

@LRickyyang @mask_bastard In most of these cases, it's not accidental, but intentional.

@mask_bastard Because media is not created by the conservatives, any creative endeavor requires exploration of new experience. Exact opposite of conservative temperament. All these characters you see here is accidental creation of leftists who were making a parody.

@mask_bastard Here's one you missed!

@CatOlvedo @ihymacc Arrested Development narrator: Child Sacrifices did not stop. In fact, the colonizers would do their best to sacrifice the rest of the children.

I don’t think I will ever understand this particular scene…

@lunarleahhhhh Normal christians wanna get off this ride 🎢

@rasalimovies Cool story, but was the hoodie red?

when i was a freshman in high school i had a latino crush (juan) who always wore a red hoodie. juan’s mom was a baker so he always smelled like conchas…i loved his smell. i stopped wearing long sleeves in winter so i could always borrow his hoodie. he was shorter than me so it was too small but i wore it anyway. i studied at his house sometimes, so one day he confronted me. he told he had a crush on this girl (who he would eventually date) and asked who my crush was. after some time of my silence, he figured me out. he told me it was an honor to be my crush and it would be our secret. that night when i got home i cried happy tears for hours while smelling his hoodie. juan never outed me, i transferred schools the next year. soon after high school, i found him online and he told me was doing well and got married. i hope the world is still as kind to him as he was to me.

I love how outspoken she is and doesn't care about backlash

I’m glad to see so many defenders of The Last Jedi suddenly coming out of the woodwork. I think that, outside of the Andor/Rogue One story, it’s the best Star Wars since Empire.

@JayVTheGreat @JamieBonkiewicz We don't, actually. The capitalists told you that because they don't want you to find the road to socialism.

@JamieBonkiewicz The fascism and socialism share the same road.

The road to fascism is paved with people telling you to stop overreacting

@rebclxedits Fr!!!
