Dr. Seward: So... you suffered a complete break with reality

Jonathan: yes

Dr. Seward: But you are no longer in need of hospitalization

Jonathan: that's correct

Dr. Seward: explain

Jonathan: the sanatorium I was at treated me until I got better

Dr. Seward: ...define "treat"

Jonathan: they let me rest, gave me good food, and provided a safe and kind environment that allowed me to heal myself

Dr. Seward:....

Comic books are Jewish-American culture

[thinkherenow]

And never forget that one of the reasons so many Jewish-Americans contributed to comics is because of the antisemitism in much of the creative sector in 20th century America. Many of these highly skilled and creative people ended up in comics because they couldn’t find work in more prestigious and lucrative fields.

[jewishdumbass]

also the same reason so many of them worked in the motion picture industry when it first began; working in film wasnt a respected line of work, so it kinda became a jewish culture, and when film unexpectedly caught on, upper-middle class white christians were quick to erase the jewish influence that the film industry had. also similar to the reason why so many jews in the past millennium worked in finance- in the 1100s it was considered sinful in the christian church to handle large amounts of money, so banking in western Europe was kind of the only profession in which Jews were guaranteed a secure income. because banking was a Jewish thing because it was sinful, when it became a respected profession, the upper-middle class and elites were quick to smear the Jewish involvement in banking as an evil conspiracy to control the world

nice addition thank u^👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼✡️

gonna add real quick that two Jewish men actually created Batman. Bill Finger was uncredited for years, but he is responsible for Batman’s look, backstory, personality,, setting etc. Bob Kane is responsible for the name and that’s pretty much it.

[gehayi]

“In fact, nearly all the great superheroes were created by Jews: Jerry Siegel and Joe (Joseph) Shuster created Superman, Joe Simon and Jack Kirby (Jacob Kurtzberg) created Captain America, Bob Kane (Robert Kahn) and Bill Finger invented Batman, while Kirby, together with Stan Lee (Stanley Martin Lieber) produced a particularly impressive line of heroes such as Spider-Man, The Hulk, the Fantastic Four, Iron Man, the X-Men, Thor and the Avengers. “ –Supermensches.

And more superheroes than those had at least one Jewish creator. For example…

Aquaman? Created by Paul Norris (not Jewish) and Mort Weisinger (the son of Austrian Jewish parents) in November 1941.

The original Batgirl (spelled Bat-Girl), Betty Kane?  Created by Bill Finger and Sheldon Moldoff in 1961.

Dick Grayson, a.k.a. the original Robin? Created by Bob Kane, Bill Finger and Jerry Robinson in 1940. And yes, Robinson was also Jewish.

Green Arrow? Co-created by artist George Papp (not Jewish) and writer Mort Weisinger.

Alan Scott, the original Green Lantern? Bill Finger and artist Martin Nodell (the son of Jewish immigrants).

Wolverine? Created by artist John Romita Sr. (who’s Italian) and writer Len Wein (who’s Jewish).

Jubilee of the X-Men? Created by artist Marc Silvestri and writer Chris Claremont.  Claremont is Jewish on his mother’s side.

Black Canary? Created by artist Carmine Infantino and writer Robert Kanigher (son of Romanian Jewish parents)  in 1947.

Sam Wilson, a.k.a the Falcon, and Captain America in some continuities? Stan Lee and Gene Colan (whose family name was originally “Cohen”).

T’Challa, the Black Panther? Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

It’s surprising how many superheroes have Jewish roots.

[mundosdepapel]

I’m surprised nobody has mentioned this already but a jewish man also invented what we now call graphic novels. His name is Will Eisner and the most prestigious comic book awards were named after him. He drew the Spirit comics as well as many graphic novels like A Contract with God, New York: The Big City and many many more. He also wrote and illustrated two books about making comics and sequential art. He was a fucking genius of visual narrative, character design and ripping your heart out with his stories.

"I am not a vessel for your good intent" goes hard as a line from a disabled perspective. Abled people care so much more about being their idea of a good ally than they do actually being a good ally. They shove their good intent right down your throat and then act surprised when you tell them they're suffocating you.

People love natives in such a superficial way. People wanna stand with natives when we’re talking about the trees, and the land. People wanna stand with natives when we talk about philosophies of love and togetherness. But as soon as it’s time to talk about political side of being native. About dismantling a system built on the genocide of our people. About how we need a new system that isn’t built upon capital gain and benefitting white bodies. About putting up a fight. About how the colonial state we reside in is a disgusting imperial plague on this land. Suddenly y’all don’t wanna talk native.

"They spent hundreds of years trying to assimilate my ancestors, trying to create indians like me, who could blend in, but now they don’t want me either. They can’t make up their minds.

They want buckskin and face paint, drumming, songs in languages they can’t understand recorded for them but with English subtitles, of course. They want educated, well spoken, but not too smart. Christian, well behaved, never question. They want to learn the history of the people, but not the ones that are here now, waving signs in their faces, asking them for clean drinking water, asking them why their women are going missing, asking them why their land is being ruined.

They want fantastical stories of Indians that used to roam this land. They want my culture behind glass in a museum.

But they don’t want me." -Shelby Lisk

[ironyquotes]

After a certain age, you are no longer the product of your environment or how you were raised. It becomes a personal choice to live the way you do. At some point, blaming your past becomes a distraction from your future. Healing is your responsibility. Growth is your decision. You either take ownership of your life or become a prisoner to excuses. The truth is, no one is coming to save you. It's on you to become the person you were never shown how to be.

[holmesunenthusiast]

I feel like no one ever talks about the one scene in Study in Scarlet where we find out that before Watson met Holmes he was, in fact, a FAN OF DETECTIVE FICTION?? He got insulted when Holmes started hating on Dupin and Lecoq. He had faves. The FIRST thing he told Holmes when old dude said he was a detective was "oh like my blorbos! :D" and Holmes told him "your blorbos are shit". Like we talk about Watson being enamored and a d1 glazer all the time but we don't talk about the fact that he MANIFESTED ts into his life. Soulmated so hard that Holmes was his favorite genre before he even met him.
