The beauty necessary to launch one ship, therefore, can be expressed as a millihelen.

If we now assume that a negative millihelen is the ugliness needed to sink a ship, we can come to the following conclusions:

Like one technique that you see time and time again with that second category is to literally just dig semicircular basins into the soil. The semicircle catches rainwater and any trees there can penetrate the ground more easily, thus both preventing runoff AND loosening the soil for other plants to follow, and it's just a waiting game from there. Thing is this technique was practiced in Subsaharan Africa by all sorts of cultures until Europeans went "Okay but what if instead of doing that, you cut down the local ecosystem to grow cash crops?"

In order for Spider-Man's webs to work, they need to achieve adhesion in a fraction of a second, on any material, at any roughness, at any temperature, at any moisture, under any amount of UV, et cetera, and then also SUSTAIN that under massive dynamic loads on the footprint of a postage stamp. There is no single adhesive that does all of this at once.

Of course, possibility 2 is that Peter instead carries around a small arsenal of different adhesives to do the work for him, but the problem with that is that Peter now either needs to fit a small chemistry set into his watch or needs a way to synthesize these chemicals in situ, then adjust his webshooters accordingly to fit whatever material et cetera he is clinging to, and while i am sure Peter could do that last part, the first part is where we run into difficulties if you ask me, because even Spider-Man must obey the laws of physics to some extent, so unless Spider-Man has hammer space i am not aware of, there is only so much space in those webshooters.

It's simple. I want you to take a childhood dish, chef it up, but do so in a way that, when you eat it, still makes you go

I'm not even just talking iron skin or something. A storm mage is trying to fry you with his lightning spells? Just turn your tendons into copper, keeps you grounded and keeps the lightning away from your brain and heart, the two organs you need to protect the most.

A guy is trying to wrestle you to the ground? Transform your clothes into poison dartfrog skin and they'll reconsider.

Hopper and Joyce both think the other gave El "The Talk"

Neither of them did. In fact, it had been Max.

Max did a pretty good job at it, too, but when Jopper learned about it, they were both horrified.

For some reason, whenever Peter is a teacher, the writers put him into Midtown High or some fancy school like Brooklyn Visions. That is not where Peter Parker would teach.

There is nothing Peter Parker, specifically, can offer a school like Midtown or Brooklyn Visions that they cannot get anywhere else. No, Peter Parker teaches at the worst performing, most underfunded school in New York City, because that is where he makes the biggest difference.

He is a good teacher, of course, even if the folks from state would disagree with that quite sharply. However, then they talk to the students, and realize that Mr. Parker is more to them than a teacher. He slips one kid lunch money because cash at home is tight from the broken pipe their landlord refuses to fix (What're they gonna do? Sue him? With the money they don't have?)

Another kid tells of the nights Mr. Parker stayed late to catch him up because his parents couldn't afford a tutor when he got sick in first class and was left functionally illiterate as a consequence.

Another kid yet tells them about how Mr. Parker helped him navigate CPS to get out of an abusive home. And humble as Peter is? He never tells a soul about any of these things. He doesn't want recognition for it. He just wants to be the teacher his students deserve. Even if that does land him in trouble with administration sometimes, because they think he's wasting his time caring so much about a bunch of kids of whom, statistically speaking, over half will drop out regardless of what he does. Of course, Peter points out the obvious, which is that that mindset is part of the reason why.

Hell, when he started, the other teachers all thought he wouldn't last a week. They all told him he has to make the kids respect him if he wants to control this classroom. Peter refuses to do that, because he knows any respect he instills on them through fear vanishes the moment they are out of his classroom. He starts by making them respect themselves after a lifetime of being told they'll be nothing when they're grown.
