trick or treat (dealer’s choice)! happy halloween and hope you have a nice day <3
clark whump enjoyers treat :,)
okay so. the backstory here is that in the first ever adaptation of superman, the radio show, in the first season. the name 'clark kent' is made up by the first people he rescues. the kents straight up don't exist. kal is a baby when jor puts him in the ship. but then he grows up on the way over. alone in a rocket ship for years and years.
a little fucked up! of course they don't like. explore this in any way whatsoever. there's no effects from this at all, radio clark is a pretty well adjusted guy for the 40s. and it gets retconned in the second season to the familiar backstory but. it itches my brain.....
439 words, gen, no particular warnings besides childhood isolation, rough draft because the voices aren't right for radio canon
“What were you like when you were a kid?” Dick asks.
Clark blinks, brushes the snow off the back of his neck. “Me? I… wasn’t really - I didn’t grow up on Krypton.”
Bruce looks at him oddly. “You mentioned you were an adult when you came here."
“I grew up on the flight,” Clark says, looking inside one of the stores. “It was - Krypton was very far away.”
There's silence for a few seconds as he scans the street below. When he looks back to Dick and Bruce, both are looking at him, abandoning the binoculars.
“How far?” Bruce says, and there’s a strange note in his voice, of caution. “How long did you - you grew up on the flight? How old were you when you left?”
He frowns, thinking back. “I would have been… about a year old, in Earth terms. I don’t…” his voice is a little hoarse. “I don’t really remember.”
“Superman,” Bruce says, and there’s an aborted movement in his arm, a moment where he seems to reach out and then think better of it. Clark isn’t sure if he wants him to think better of it.
An uncomfortable silence hangs over them, and he feels like he needs to say something, he just doesn’t know what. He turns back to the street, because it's easier to look there than at his friends. “I wasn’t awake for all of it. Or… it’s hard to explain. I was, but I wasn’t. It was something between sleeping and waking up.” He searches the faces below them carefully, looking at their freckles and scars, the smile at the corner of a young lady’s lip as she watches her two kids run ahead of her on the slushy sidewalk. “There were recordings. That’s how I learned the language.” One of the kids almost slips, and the mother reaches out, but the brother is there faster, grabbing onto his sister. Keeping her safe. “My father - I think he programmed the ship to somehow - there was a voice that I could ask questions to, and it would answer. It wasn’t a person, but it would answer, if it could find the answer in the radio waves it’d stored and translated. But it wasn’t... it shut itself down when I got here.”
He’s looking at the crowd. He doesn’t want to look away from the crowd, because there’s a tight feeling in his chest and he doesn’t know what he would see if he looks over at his friends. He doesn’t know what he would want to see. So he looks at the crowd, at the families. At all the people, together.

USC law students have started a hotline for people to call when they have an immigration-related court hearing but don't want to show up in person for fear of being arrested/detained by ICE outside the courthouse. The students will help people complete and submit a "Motion to Change Hearing Format," which can allow someone to have a remote/online hearing instead of an in-person.
Edi Gathegi's Mister Terrific Series in Active Development
Buried at the end of an article in The Hollywood Reporter on Supergirl's development came an exciting reveal: a Mister Terrific series starring Edi Gathegi is in active development, with Allan Heinberg writing the pilot.
Heinberg is no stranger to superhero projects. On the comics side, he has written Wonder Woman and JLA for DC, and co-created and wrote Young Avengers for Marvel. On the screen side, he wrote and produced Netflix's The Sandman (2022–2025) and wrote the 2017 Wonder Woman film. He's a strong choice for this kind of project.
Since we likely have a long wait before that first episode arrives, here is a pretty comprehensive list of Mister Terrific reading available on DCUI.

honestly im very tired of peoples inability to recognize stereotypes that stem from sax rohmer novels i think white people especially owe it to asian people to do a cursory reading of the premise of fu manchu novels and read the characters are associated with them just so they can get their heads out of their asses and stop blindly reading fu manchu and fah lo suee reskins without any critical thought
like an asian daughter trying to get away from her evil dad or trying to usurp her father with the help of white men is a anti asian stereotype i need yall to know that. the daughter who is actually good and is just a helpless victim of her father and she needs help from a white man to either get away or kill her father is a racist stereotype. Id take it a step further and say that even if its not a white man getting help from any outside force to usurp or run from her father is in fact racist. An asian woman falling in love with a white man and that white man basically making her realize that she shouldn't be following her father is racist it comes from Daughter of the Dragon. It comes from Sax Rohmer. We need to recognize that its a thing. We need to be critical of how we talk about characters that fall into that trope
if you reblog anything from me I wish it were this. the anti asian stereotypes from sax rohmer novels are so prevalent in literally everything its difficult to find anything with Asian people that doesnt have at least a few. especially comics
every time you see someone refer to grayson as "devin" search their blog for "chuck" and "dixon" and see how respectful they are by default of neo-confederate white supremacist q-anon hatemonger christian nationalist chuck dixon in comparison. i can almost guarantee they refer to dixon by surname even when explicitly discussing his actual desire to carry out the events of the turner diaries. i wonder why that is. do we think there's a reason for that. do we ever wonder why the guy who wants to publicly mass execute racial minorities and white race traitors and specifically leveraged his history as a batman writer to publish a comic book about that gets more basic professional respect from the average progressive fandom blog on tumblr than the leftist queer disabled woman who wrote some racist comics in 2002 and has never sincerely published actual propaganda intended to result in our deaths does
why is it that people are fine talking about dixon without bringing up the propaganda he wrote for the conspiracy theory believed in by millions of americans that if successful will result in our mass murders? the one that is very present in our fascist white supremacist government? the one that resulted in one attempted coup already? the one with a serious body count? i see people talk about his work all the time without any mention of it. references to his runs. screencaps of panels. analysis of his text.
chucky d's q-anon propaganda would not exist without his dc comics career. can we think of a single reason that fandom is so much more comparatively comfortable with chuck than they are with grayson?
"Friend" is an AI wearable device designed to provide "companionship + emotional support"— i.e replace human friendships. Its literally an AI chatbot that you wear around your neck. "Friend" just paid for the largest ad campaign in NYC subway history
And Every. Single. Poster was vandalised, it literally looks like some of the most beautiful art you have ever seen
Kylie Robison and Boone Ashworth of WIRED both wore these stupid things for a couple weeks and reported the kind of experiences one might expect to have with an interactive AI device invented by a 22-year-old techbro:
The chatbot-enabled Friend necklace eavesdrops on your life and provides a running commentary that’s snarky and unhelpful. Worse, it can als
If the idea of a microphone-packed wearable that's always listening to your conversations raises privacy concerns for you, just know that you're not alone. If your experience is anything like ours, wearing the Friend will likely earn you the ire of everyone around you. Curiously, you might even end up being bullied by the chatbot itself.
-(Wired article)
Robison quickly grew to despise the gizmo. She wore the device to a party organized by AI startup Anthropic, and ended up being accused of “wearing a wire” — to her, an indication that “even at the most tech-minded gatherings, the thing was a complete taboo.”
