Oh. So maybe this can double! So I have a mutual who makes wonderful playlists for their ocs! ( @quibble-auk go look at their stuffs) Well The Comet has literally nothing on her on this blog so I might as well do one for her :D

This will be added onto later I'm sure, but some of these fit far too well.

This will be sad in comparison to Quibble's-

The Comet: Finn and Jake must deal with not only the resurrected demon Orgalorg, but a cataclysmic comet heading right for Ooo.

While reading the short story "The Comet" by W.E.B. Du Bois, there is a lesson learned fairly quickly. That a nation or a people that prioritizes white as the superior race will continue to see that to the end. Du Bois utilizes his short story to comment on an unnatural type of hatred, racism. His short story tells of a white woman and a black man, Jim, who seem to be the last two people alive after everyone else was wiped out. At the end of the story, the reader learns that only that city was killed off, and the white woman, Julia, gets saved by her dad and other men who first shared an instinct of 'othering.' A man who stayed by her side and saved her immediately became a threat after reality set back in and the structures of a society settled back into place. Her father and the other men waiting outside to hear of the news of survivors fell straight back into the order and structure of racism. They assumed the worst and assumed he could have only caused this white woman harm solely because of his skin color.
