Has anyone redrawn Superboy Prime as a spoof isekai cover yet because 'I got transferred into the world of my favorite comic books as the strongest Super hero but everything is going wrong!' is a valid isekai concept.

To be fair to Alexander Luthor Jr he was kind of speed grown from infancy to adulthood in the course of only hours, so I'm really unsure what age he's even supposed to be.

I like to imagine all scenes involving Jr and SBP with little signs saying "infant" and "teenager" floating over their respective heads it really heightens the comic reading experience.

Truthfully I just have the curse of caring about characters who feature heavily in Crisis On Infinite Earths, but even if that wasn't the case I'd probably still like Prime for the simple fact that he's the only DC comics character who's ever beaten up Dan DiDio.

when a character does something unsympathetic or cruel that may not be excusable but still understandable and makes the character complex and human and the audience forgets that the character is a character which is to say a narrative tool and not a real person or their personal friend and go grrrrrr that is so ooc grrrrr how dare u try and tell a complex story grrrrrrrrrrr

There's also this resource on historical fashion: Claire’s Historical Fashion Reference & Resources

another addition as far as physical media goes there is the encyclopedia of national dress (that i still need to buy myself bc this kind of thing is super important to my sort of fantasy designing) but yes i do agree i wish there was EVEN MORE documentation on this

"You can't love others/nobody else can love you until you love yourself" isn't strictly true, but people say it because the thing they're getting at that IS true -- which you can roughly summarize as, "if you commit to being a complete unchecked void of self-loathing, you will inevitably alienate people who love you" -- sounds even meaner.

I think we need to kill the sentiment that people lose their right to personhood once they do something bad enough

"when people ask how you're doing, they don't really care." most of them do, actually, the amount they care is just directly proportional to how well they know you. you're just mad you can't be the main character of the Twice Daily.

if i am doing shitty and the check out girl asks me, "how are you?" i will say,"man, i've been better." we are strangers to each other. she doesn't need to know my whole life story. she doesn't need to know about my credit score and my hemorrhoids or my uncle in the hospital. she just needs enough to respond "been there, buddy. hey, at least the day is almost over?" and then we part ways. i have been on both sides of thousands of exchanges like this, the only one making you do a little song and dance is you, my friend

I love that thing when people get a little bit tongue-tied and garble what they’re trying to say so they make a little “blegh” 👅 noise and start over. verbal reset button. hitting the top of the tv to unscramble the signal
