what da hell

I mean let's look at both mugman and gabriel. They basically contradict themselves in every way.. Mugman yearns for immortality and knowledge that comes with it. He feels like he has to be something greater than an avarage mortal. However gabriel deep down wishes he could live like an ordinary mortal who, is able to fall in love, do all the simplest mortal activities whenever he wants, with whoever he wants and be free from his never ending archangel duties.

While mugman focuses more on the deeper meaning of existence and life gabriel sees the simple lifes of mortals on earth as something beyond beautiful.

Their relationship could be written in such a tragic and bittersweet way. Gabriel is everything mugman wants to be and mugman is everything Gabriel wants to be somewhere deep down. Brightgoat did amazing job in pairing them up together as a duo i swear to god..

Together they could create a beautiful bond whenever it's romantic or just platonic. They just work well with eachother.

Oh and not to mention how much I'm looking forward for mugman finding out that gabe is THE archangel gabriel. I want mugman to be geniuinely FUMING with envy at the thought that gabriel not only has been lying to him and playing with him this entire time but also that the person he has always desired to be has been so close to him. Mugman would probably find out that gabriel has (most likely) been lenghtening his journey to becoming immortal and that would make him probably even more furious. Another immortal being telling him he is not meant to be someone he wants to be. Gabriel most likely won't try to show any care towards hurt mugman because of his already massive ego and just a joy that he takes from mingling with mortals.

If both of them tried to move their toxic personality traits aside they would create a perfect bond between 2 souls. Yin and yang.

Or maybe gabriel doing it would be just enough.. Maybe he could be the one who finally would be able to talk some sense into mugman.

My experiment with my art style turned into PASWG which reminds me that i still need to finish season 2

N if you ask why Carmine looks strange is because i hate drawing animals n instead of learning the anatomy i focus on carmen sandiego games.

I both hate this n love it. I migth redraw this traditionally cuz my drawings are lwk better on paper.

Now i will focus on my wlw fanarts which i promised 🫰

I’ll reblog mine after some time because I have a few, but I want to hear you guys’ first

Anyway

Anyway, here we go:

1. If you would remove Zack n Ivy from the story, almost nothing would change. When i first watched the show i didn't gave a fuck about them. N I SHOULD'VE,SINCE THESE MFS ARE ONE OF THE CLOSEST PEOPLE TO CARMEN. They are so underdeveloped to the point that they have almost no other personality than being twins n that they are from Boston. If you would remove them from the story, nothing would really change imo.

2. I HATE THAT THEY DUMBED DOWN CHASE, ZACK N IVY. The only reason is so that they could be comic relief characters WHICH I ABSOLUTELY HATE. Yes the 90's Zack in Ivy were also somewhat comic relief but they weren't dumb. They both were really smart people. N Chase, oh gods, there isn't a day that i want to punch that man.

3. I hate that they made Carmens mom look like the 94 Carmen since people now think that the 94 Carm is her mom WHEN IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, GOSH I HATE THAT THEORY.

4. I hate this version of ACME. Everything sucks about it. It literally had no reason to exists in the story.

5. Most characters are undeveloped

6. I hate that tigresses only trait is that she hates carmen ((n that she hates bugs but i don't think that matters)). Yeah ik that they're referencing the 1994 show but gosh you didn't have to make it so terrible.

7. I never understood from where did Jules get that "Carmen isn't evil" like bro...

8. Shadowsan is a Japanese stereotype. LIKE I HATE THAT NAME

9. Carmen doesn't feel like a worlds most wanted thief to me personally. Like it's never police chasing her it's mostly ACME. Yeah ik she gets arrested in one episode, but i disliked it.

10. The dynamic between the 90's Zack, Ivy n Carmen is way more developed n they have more chemistry than their 19's counterparts. 11. Carmen x Jules is just yuri-bait

Static was WILDLY popular in Brazil (a country where the population is over 50% black) and we had re-runs for YEARS on open television. Everyone who was a kid in the 2000s knew and loved him. As a result, every single Brazilian Con has a LOT of static cosplayers!

So, a couple of years ago, Comic Con Experience (the biggest con in Brazil, which is actually also the biggest con in the world!) invited Static’s creator Denys Cowan as one of the guests of honor.

Now. Thousands of people attend his panel. And cosplayers went NUTS because they could show their Static cosplay to the creator himself! What none of us expected was Debts Cowan’s reaction:

He cried on stage.

He had never seen Static cosplayers - especially not so many of them! And he had no idea the show was popular here! No one ever told him his character was so beloved! Years and years of reruns and he had no idea! He obviously created the character with his experiences and his community (Black North Americans) in mind. Still, he accidentally touched a whole other community of black people who could see themselves on the screen as a superhero!

Some of yall may have heard some of the shit that has been going on right now. I'm gonna give a quick run down of some of the stuff that has been happening. Note, this is not all, and it may never be all as much as I will try to update this.

(I am going to try and compile and briefly explain these as much as I can. There may be misinformation. Please inform me if I got something wrong.)

(This will also be updated with additional information and new topics added.)

1) Racist Chinese Dolls.

There are these dolls in China that are being called "Natasha" baby dolls. These dolls are not only very obvious caricatures of black people, but they are being advertised as a "stress relief" in which the people who buy these abuse it in various ways.

This links to a video of a compilation of the various "uses" of the doll. There are more in the replies of the tweet. (Another link to the same tweet just incase)

2) The Mocking, Abuse, and Dehumanization of Black Children.

Apart from the aforementioned doll, there are apparently people going around mocking, abusing, and dehumanizing black children.

Some people have compared black children to the doll.

Others have been going into African countries and have found ways to mock, abuse, and dehumanize black children for clout.

(Source 1 + Full Video) (Source 2)

There are more videos surfacing.

3) Black people are going missing.

Black people, especially children and teens have recently been going missing at an alarming rate. Some of these same people are turning up dead, deaths being ruled as "suicides."

While it generally unknown why many of these people are going missing, many suspect that their disappearances, deaths, and even lack of coverage is rooted in anti-blackness.

The following is a list of black people that have been reported missing as of recently. Please note that this is not a complete list (it may never be completed due to the fact that many of these disappearances will still occur as time passes) this may contain inaccurate information. Please inform me if that is the case.

By the time you see this, some of these people may have already been found either alive or deceased. This post will be updated overtime.

It is also heavily encouraged that you reblog this with more links to recent cases of missing black people if you are aware of any that aren’t included on this list.

Anyway

Carmen's kind of a dick.

They should've made El Topo and Le Chèvre explicitly canon instead of continually dodging that.

The art style kinda holds the show back.

Chase shouldn't have been Chase, he should've been Stan packer from 1993 audio games.

Woeics is better.

Reader-submitted drawing of Mario and Peach featured in a 2003 issue of the Japanese Nintendo Dream magazine.

But how they actually worked was manipulating racist policies to cause as much of a delay as possible. They'd sit down at the bar to order (that's how those restaurants worked, you had to sit down to order and there weren't many tables) and when the waiter said they couldn't serve them, they'd respond that they would wait until they could be served. And then all their friends who they organized this with would do the same, and they would sit there at every seat until they're holding up the whole line. Then nobody could order and the restaurant was forced to either close, serve them, or try and fail to work around them. It wasn't just to make a point, it was to cost them money and time.

Does this look quiet, peaceful, nondisruptive?

And the struggle didn't stop after formal integration, once the Civil Rights act had passed. Because even when they are legally required to serve you, they can make you really fucking uncomfortable and threaten you and the cops probably will take their side.

For one example, there was a cafe that would serve Black people, but would then publicly break the dishes so that no white customer would ever have to eat off a dish a Black person had eaten off of. This was done publicly, right as the Black diner was done eating. The waitress takes the plate and smashes it. This is a signal both to the white diners "see, we hate them just as much as you do, you're safe here" and also a threat of violence to the Black diners. "If you're not careful we'll smash you just like we did this plate."

But at the same time, if Black people go there and eat every day ... how long before the cafe can't afford to do that? How long before they have broken so many dishes that it's eating into their profits? How long before the white diners start getting used to eating alongside Black people and simply don't care as much any longer, or start getting annoyed at the noise and fuss and mess?

1. Folks in these movements trained. They were disruptive and they were strategic about it and they trained so that they could stay calm in terrifying situations and create the targeted disruptions they wanted to create and not get goaded into deviating from that. Absolutely badass.

2. Not at all a criticism of OP because I think their description of people thinking it was "quiet self-sacrificial non-disruptive christ-like activism" is dead on, but I think that description itself speaks to the same kind of revisionism re: the Christ of the Gospels and how disruptive he was and why, and it's important to remember that, especially in this era of renewed christofascism. Rev. Dr. King was a prophet and you will never convince me otherwise.

Nonviolence is not a goal, it is a strategy. A deliberate strategy at a calculated time in response to violence of the oppressor, which can be effective if it shames the perpetrators. See: why Selma or Montgomery was chosen by the SCLC (they had the most racist unhinged sheriffs who would deploy maximum force, which got shown on nationwide broadcasts and finally moved the public).

Nonviolence doesn’t mean you don’t carry weapons if necessary, as many organizers in Selma did. Nonviolence doesn’t mean that you accept that people will throw bombs into your family’s home, as they did to MLK.

And yes, the absurd simplification and bastardization of this strategy is deliberate. It went from being a tool for fighting for liberation to being a justification for more violence and oppression used against future generations of protestors who didn’t meet the standard of perfectly obedient nonviolent non disruptive protestors. Which of course there is no such thing.
