In 2012, NASA moved the space shuttle Endeavour through the streets of Los Angeles to the California Science Center.

The majority of people seeking abortions (51%) reported using birth control that failed. That is affirmative non-consent to pregnancy. And consent to sex is not consent to pregnancy.

Consent to one activity with one person for a few minutes is not a binding contract to lease your body to an unwelcome third party for most of a year.

A child should never be "a consequence". All children should be wanted. "Taking accountability" doesn't have to mean "giving birth".

An abortion is way more responsible than birthing a child you're not ready for.

Honestly this is really cute and sweet. Imagine being abducted by aliens and put in a teeny-tiny cage… except that by the time you return home, your chronic illness is gone.

I am terribly curious of the pasting strategy on that last pic. The dedication of lasso-ing the orb out of the photo only to put it on top of the white square is admirable.

And if I said Megamind is one of the few movies that understands Superman.

[imissthembutitwasntadisaster]

And if I said Megamind through its three subversions of Superman shows a deeper understanding that the point of Superman is that he was loved and taught to love by good, present parents, and because of that he is able to return that love to a world even if it doesn't always accept it, and he is not corrupted by his power, than many other films either subverting or playing the superman story straight.

[imissthembutitwasntadisaster]

Megamind has three Superman subversions. One is obviously Megamind himself. He was not raised loved by the world, but rather was loved by those hated by the world. Because he was still raised with love, he does care about other people, hence his character development. But because he didn't receive wider love growing up, his own is misplaced at first.

Metro Man was not loved growing up in a way that mattered. His adopted father was clearly very absent, and while we don't know much about his family, their relationship seems superficial. Because of this, his sense of duty to the world is also superficial, hence his boredom.

Hal wasn't raised with power. He gained it and was shown how to use it by a 'space dad' who only taught him power and not love. Hence, he sees it only as a grasping means to an end.

All three of these subversions, in their negative space, create the silhouette of the superhero that they are parodying. That silhouette is of a space child that came to earth and was cared for very deeply by the world, and taught love through his experience of love, and because of that holds fast to his duty to the world. Which is Superman.
