wait now i wanna write a superhero story where public perception turns against the heroes and they're banned and it turns out it was a great idea and everyone is safer and the superheroes weren't doing good or important things after all, and nonviolent civilians take over important things like directing traffic
and then the final page is just blank with large block letters that say 'this is about the police'
And this is the Sonic comics commentary I was talking about this morning.
This is the Medium article I was reading on it, because after a certain point, I clocked out: https://medium.com/@ponett/i-read-every-sonic-comic-by-ken-penders-and-theyre-wilder-than-you-could-ever-imagine-1f9dd05ae433
It started off as this clumsy, pun-filled SaTAM, Adventures of Sonic hybrid, and then it got all serious and soap opera-y and filled with the writer's own OCs. It was like some older guy who didn't like Sonic was making Sonic fanfic and still marketing it for kids.
Sometimes I wonder why the Sonic fandom is Like That, but then I remember how fucking bizarre the Archie comic series was
Is it really that hard to avoid Youtube for 3 days, tho?

@avi yeah, this is an imagined outsider threat to white children, generated by racists who don't care about refugees if they're brown. Seen it before. I was there for the moral panics of the 80s. It was bullshit then and it's bullshit now.
We have so much real shit to be upset about, and people spread absolute garbage like, "Your girl-children are going to be kidnapped by perverts!" if any of these dinguses really cared about human trafficking, they'd be fighting for immigrants working under abject conditions in sweat shops and on farms.
I need to stay the fuck off Twitter because now I'm seeing shit about imaginary sex traffickers kidnapping children off the street in white vans, like we're reliving all the moral panics of the 80s again.

i don't get it, why can't we all just be radically independent free thinkers entirely separate from the concepts foisted upon us by society and fully devoted to lives of philosophy, science, and rationality, cmon people it cant be that hard to just simply be correct about everything
Going for that male Octoling haircut
Buying the first foldable laptop. From 1982. The Grid Compass. Very innovative clamshell design.
I've spent an hour reading commentary on the oldest Archie Sonic comics. The ones before the echidna-obsessed weirdo joined the staff. The ones with puns.

Carl Barks's "Das Kapital and how to dive around in it like a porpoise, burrow through it like a gopher, and toss it up and let it hit me on the head!"
Do trans men exist? It's more likely than you think
Congratulations to Marriage Story for dragging Reylo discourse back to life, despite having nothing to do with Star Wars
Officially starting petition to ban gentiles from insisting Adam Driver "looks Jewish" when in fact he "looks like an azhdarchid"
