min wage workers: "hey can we have like $4 extra per hour please. we literally can't afford to live"

corporations: "hmm.... let me think" *spends $25 million on another TV ad thanking min wage workers* "no sorry it's just not within our budget :("

Not all character development is positive. Characters can, and in my opinion, should, develop both negative and positive traits throughout the course of their story. As the story goes, they shouldn’t be perfected, they’re people, not artpieces, and so there shouldn’t be a stage where they’ve improved/changed exclusively for the better, to the point where they have no negative traits at all.

I really like how in brooklyn 99, a new captain showed up and genuinely wanted the best for all of them, but they were so fucked up from all the times captains have taken over and fucked with them that they were super toxic and paranoid and that captain left

what if the teenage mutant ninja turtles exist in the mcu but they’re just really good at staying under the radar and criminals are too embarrassed to admit they got beat up by some guys in “turtle costumes” so they blame daredevil. peter parker worked as a pizza delivery boy for a while and brought like eight pizzas to a man hole cover but thought nothing of it bc nyc

[imposterogers]

peter parker: i once was one minute late delivering pizza and the dude was like “forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza” 

clint barton: oh cool u met one of the tmnt 

literally everyone: who 

clint: am i the only one in this goddamn city who knows about the crimefighting turtles that live in the sewers 

(they all think clint is playing an elaborate prank on them, especially when he shows them a photo of four guys wearing what are ‘very obviously halloween costumes’)

fun fact: it’s TMNT canon that the chemical container that hit Matt Murdock across the face and gave him his Daredevil abilities is the same canister that landed on the baby turtles and mutated them, so…..y’all aren’t far off

i’m sorry it’s WHAT

TMNT started as a Daredevil parody.

Matt’s teacher is Stick. The turtle’s is Splinter.

Matt’s enemy is the Hand. The turtle’s is the Foot Clan.

It was originally a dark, edgy, turtle themed parody of Daredevil.

[slimgrimace]

Not just daredevil, it was a parody of the gritty Age of Frank Miller (he created elektra, wrote the very wide-jawed and hyper-violent batman that inspired Ben Affleck, Dark Knight Returns and Batman Year One, he was responsible for 300 and Sin City)

Recently I believe the ninja turtles had a full series with batman, which was fun.

But ALSO Frank Miller is responsible for the lyrics to the Ninja Rap by Vanilla Ice from the TMNT2 soundtrack
