My blog keeps getting deleted so I'm making my next blog preemptively and following everyone my current blog follows

This is a reminder for those who handmake Christmas presents that now is not too early to start. It may in fact be a good time to start if you have a lot to make/your craft takes a long time. You should maybe start it now, whether that's brainstorming or actually doing the crafts!

Say what you will about American police, but god damn, do they have the coolest police cars ever made!

Man, one of the many things I didn't get to see in my US trip was a real Crown Vic police interceptor, just a ton of Explorers, although, in a way, I already had seen one, in the form of a couple of Policia Regional (Maracaibo's former police force) cars they used to have when I first came to Venezuela.

Here in Colombia patrol cars suck dick, nothing but vans, small sedans and the odd pickup without any cool addon whatsoever.

I will say, American patrol cars from the 70's and 80's were just ugly

Although that's a personal bias of mine, because I love the Crown Vic way too much, seeing those in movies instead of my beloved just rubbed me the wrong way hehe.

[lucasnator6]

For America specifically if you just go to a police station and ask to see the cars. Theyll gladly show you around if theres nothing going on. Especially if you seem super interested. Though I have to post this cop car

while they share a similar base flavor, dick tastes more umami while pussy tastes more acidic, though recent menstruation conveys an overwhelming metallic flavor that some diners object to (though i am not one of them). recommended wine pairings are

So, Korra is definitely the worst Avatar ever, yeah?

She not only destroyed the Avatar's connection to their past lives, but became the Dark Avatar and ended the world.

10'000 years of Chaos, making her uncle proud.

[uncle-beanbag-mojave]

I'm extremely happy the chain broke with her because the Avatar was what was draining everything. Even though it doesn't look like that, even though it's not set up that way, humanity needed to progress beyond the mysticism. And the only way to do that was to break it, which is exactly what Korra did. And she got Asami in the end too, so there's that.

[gsirvitor]

But, she didn't do that, she plunged the world into an age of chaos, more magical bullshit has thrown their world into turmoil, cataclysmic, apocalyptic upheaval.

I'm taking it you didn't watch the latest trailer for the new show, where Humanity is afraid of the Avatar's return, because SHE ENDED THE WORLD.

Yeah, humanity looks way better off, fucking tsunami of spiritual energy destroying the world, but she's the one who ended the Age of Balance and brought the Cataclysm, so it must be for humanity's benefit, right?

She can't have become the Dark Avatar because she released Vaatu, right?

Oh goodie, she's bisexual, and fumbled every single relationship she ever had, definitely a saving point.

[uncle-beanbag-mojave]

THE NEW SHOW?

[gsirvitor]

Yeah, it's called Avatar: Seven Havens, and it's coming out on October 9th.

[lucasnator6]

I vote we never speak of it and just live in a reality were Avatar was just a cool cartoon we watched 20 years ago

[beardedmrbean]

Would you rather drink Duff beer, Alamo beer, or Pawtucket Patriot ale?

Alamo, because it's easy to remember.

[lucasnator6]

Easy. Alamo 100%

Duff is only drank because its the only thing sold. Its marketing is so strong that regardless of how good it is its the only thing available.

Pawtucket sucks because the only time I remember anyone drinking it beyond casually was a golden ticket scenario.

Alamo beer is the best because when I hang out with the boys we always have Alamo. If it was bad wed have something else

[headspace-hotel]

Okay. I finally watched all 3 of the tobey mcguire Spider-Man movies

here is why they are good

Spider-Man saves people. These movies were refreshing because they reawakened the understanding of a superhero as someone who serves their community and does good in a way that an ordinary person could not do.

Spider-Man is part of a community. Spider-Man's relationships with others are absolutely central in each movie, whether that is with Aunt May, MJ, his acquaintances and friends, or random strangers he interacts with. The relationship of reciprocity between the people of New York and Spider-Man is an especially important theme in the second film, exemplified in the scene where the passengers on the train carry an unconscious and unmasked Spider-Man to safety and give him his mask back. Spider-Man is strong enough to stop the train from crashing, but he collapses in the aftermath, and his wounded body has to be supported by the hands of the many anonymous people whose lives he saved.

I just absolutely adore how "weakness" is treated in these films. There are many scenes where helpless people are threatened or held hostage and have to be saved by Spider-Man, but these people are almost always given some level of agency, and sometimes help Spider-Man in a crucial way. For example, Aunt May hitting Doctor Octopus with her cane, the New Yorkers on the bridge throwing objects at Green Goblin, and the people on the train protecting Spider-Man with their bodies when Doctor Octopus threatens him. In the second movie there is a scene where Peter Parker, having rejected his identity as Spider-Man, is trying to save a little girl (barely older than a toddler) from a burning building. When he nearly falls through a collapsing floor, the little girl, who has been carried in Peter's arms the whole time and was paralyzed with fear, reaches out to grab onto Peter's hands and tries to help pull him up, even though she doesn't have the strength to. This scene is so good, it makes me want to cry.

Spider-Man is actually dorky and awkward in a way that feels genuine.

Spider-Man messes up in ways that feel realistic and goes through genuine character growth. He actually has character flaws and has to work through them.

The way socioeconomic class affects the characters is shown.

There's something just very campy and dramatic and Shakespearean about the plots. MJ breaking up with her fiance on her wedding day and meeting Spider-Man in his apartment in her wedding dress. Harry preparing to kill Spider-Man with a dagger and then stumbling back in shock as he unmasks him. Eddie in the church looking like death warmed over begging God to kill Spider-Man. The love triangles, the hidden identities, Dr. Osborne hallucinating in a room full of creepy masks and then Harry having hallucinations of his dead father... everything is a little over-the-top in a way that is like we're not self conscious about the innate silliness of this story.

I love the way Harry pouts and broods and has such a bitchy Byronic hero look.

Y'all know I love a character who is a science experiment gone wrong and these movies delivered beautifully.

I appreciate the way it's sort of implied that Aunt May knows Peter is Spider-Man but there's not a big reveal, you could really interpret it either way.

in a lot of these my mind is just contrasting with tom holland spider-man because tom holland spider-man was a complete fumble of the character in comparison

Were does the blue come from though?

[uncle-beanbag-mojave]

Yeah, there's no real consensus on it. It could be blue vein blood, because if you look at your veins, they look blue without opening them up, and then become red. Another theory is American patriotism, but I don't think that's right. There's no official anything on it, and not all barber poles had the blue either.

[lucasnator6]

As an American I choose to believe the American option. I hereby decree that all barbershops are part of America. Even the ones in America

Ive used clip studio for making memes for years and I just had my first taste of a "transparent" image. Fuck people that make "transparent" images and fuck the Beatles. Especially the guy in the white suit

They're handy for some things, if I'm moving a character around from spot to spot having a transparent cutout of them is nice since I don't have to clean up the background of the images.

Unless you're thinking of a different kind of transparent images, at which point I'm not sure which ones you mean.

[lucasnator6]
