but that was when i ruled the world

Heavily canon divergent after season 4. Crossover and OC friendly. Written by Ambs. Mun has 20 years of para lit rp writing experience. Blog is only vaguely selective, but low-activity . Tragic baddies are kinda my thing, so this was inevitable. Make a Rogaine joke and Lex will be entitled to financial compensation 😘

Like Fitzgerald's Daisy Buchanan, Lex hs a voice that sounds like money. It allures, flatters, yet somehow never seems to part with cool self-control.  A smooth baritone commodity, it commands a room without ever needing to shout. 

Welcome! I’ve written rp accounts for over 20 years, and on Tumblr since 2010.  Misunderstood antiheroes (and villains) and lovable disasters of every shade are my specialty.  I’ve watched Smallville since its airdate in 2001.  I had just finished high school, which discloses to you all how ancient I am.  I recently got a Hulu subscription, and lo and behold, there was an old favorite. So, consider this an active (though lowish-activity) Rosenbaum!Lex Luthor blog.

LEX LUTHOR Smallville 2×03 (Duplicity)

SMALLVILLE S01E17 "Reaper"

[victusinveritas]

CeCe Rogers on Facebook writes: "Two Black Tennessee lawmakers were physically escorted out of chambers this week while Republicans quietly held a hearing to approve gerrymandered maps that would eliminate the state's only majority-Black congressional district.

No referendum. No special election. No public vote.

Because they know what happens when voters actually get a say — just look at Virginia, where the people spoke so loudly that Republicans had to drag the courts in to override them.

This isn't new. During Reconstruction, Black Americans held more congressional seats than at any point in the prior 90 years of American history. And white supremacists spent the next several decades tearing that down, through gerrymandering, poll taxes, and voter intimidation.

150 years later, the same tools. Different suits.

The audacity of escorting Black lawmakers out of their own chambers while dismantling Black political representation, and then telling us the courts aren't political, is breathtaking. These are the same courts they're counting on to make it stick.

This is a coordinated, multi-front assault on Black Americans. And we need to say it exactly that plainly."

May 5th is MMIWG (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls) Day, which sheds light on the ongoing endangerment of and femicide against Indigenous/First Nations individuals in the United States and Canada*. This violence is a continuation of the colonial, racial, and gendered violence that was woven into these imperial states at their inception. Please do research into how you can support Indigenous women and their communities. See more info below.

Urban Indian Health Institute - Data & Resources

Coalition to Stop Violence Against Native Women

Jamie Black, The REDress Project

*Similar observances are held by and for Indigenous/Aboriginal groups in Australia, New Zealand and beyond.

Note: The Native woman in regalia is drawn from traditional Lakota (Teton Sioux) clothing. Women and girls from hundreds of individual tribes and clans are subject to this violence, and Indigenous peoples are not a monolith.

— SMALLVILLE, “Stray” (1.16)

+ bonus from “Ryan” (2.08)

[autcnomy]

I’ve never understood this bit???? Lex was nothing but kind to Ryan. If they wanted to foreshadow his fall from grace, they should have made him do something malevolent lol???

CLARK KENT AND LEX LUTHOR SMALLVILLE | 1.04 “X-ray”

[lexkent]

lex luthor + his tŷ nant water bottles

[dragongirlteeth]

Some core principles I've been thinking about lately:

There are no ontologically evil people

People generally want to believe they are doing good

Under enough stress, anyone will act irrationally

When someone does something terrible, first try to look back and see "how did we get here"

[thornfield13713]

Back at the Kent farm, Clark is recounting things to his parents. Jeremiah is now in a coma at Belle Reve, poor man - he really didn't deserve that. All he did wrong was trying to kill Lionel Luthor and just lightly stab Clark, and, I mean...if I suddenly acquired superpowers in this universe, that is probably what I'd do...except that I would also stab Jonathan. The coma is put down to the toll of Kryptonian abilities on a human body, which- okay, we've got precedent for that with Jonathan, so it does make some sense.

Anyway, Clark is more worried about more prophecy coming true because the blade went to dust when both Luthors touched it. Clark having apparently accepted now that he's Naman, he's also accepted that this means one or other of them is his greatest enemy, and- given the friend-becoming-an-enemy thing, Lex is probably the more likely pick. Given that Clark has been treating him like the villain of Clark's story for a while now, over his having the audacity to want to know what happened to him during those seven weeks when Lionel drugged him into a mental breakdown and attempted to chemically lobotomise him before going for electroshock instead....but no, he goes the more sensible route of 'well, I don't need a magic blade to tell me that Lionel Luthor is a bad person'. Which- yes, stick to that, Clark. He is going to try and convince you otherwise next season by pandering to your ego, do not fall for it.

Anyway, Martha chooses this opportunity to go 'okay, but it could be Lex, though. Yes, Lionel Luthor is a bad person who has committed so many crimes, but have you considered that your destined enemy is actually Lex, who has been generally a good egg for these last three seasons'. Clark claims he's not ready to consider Lex being his enemy yet, which- is weird, given that Clark sure has been treating Lex that way for a while. Like, if 'Memoria' and how he's been towards Lex this episode is how he behaves when he isn't ready to deal with the idea of Lex being his enemy...

Jonathan goes on by telling Clark that he can't let other people tell him what to be. Which isn't a bad message, as it goes, but pretty seriously undermined by how Jonathan gets whenever Clark does something, even something apparently harmless, that Jonathan doesn't like. We get some of the old heavy-handed foreshadowing of 'you could be the world's greatest hero or its most mild-mannered citizen', but whatever, Clark controls his own destiny- except that he sort of doesn't. But more on that in later seasons.

Young Lex using his powers of influence for good during the early years. He always knew how to make Clark smile.

SMALLVILLE | 3.16 – “Crisis"

[kingkishou]

I'm only saying this for your sake, but objectively, it's not a smart idea to bring politics into normal hobbies. You might lose supporters of your blog just because of your political stance, and that would be terrible since you're so amazing!! It's only a suggestion, but I really reccomend not bringing politics into anything.

SMALLVILLE | SEASON 6 EPISODE 19 “"Nemesis ”

[rimonoroni2]

my general opinion on what people should be "allowed" to portray and what topics they should be "allowed" to explore in fiction is that you can make whatever art with whatever themes you want but i'm also allowed to think the way you handled it was tasteless and should've been done differently. my negative opinion on your handling of sensitive topics is the price of admission for publicly showcasing your work. this is not a pro-censorship stance because i am not The Government
