We've had a family/murder of crows visiting our garden for years now, and this season the chicks are soooo helpless! They just stand around expectantly with their mouths open as the mom crow eats. Which is what inspired this comic! :)

mister queer, its an honor to see you in the dungeon meshi fandom. whos your favourite character? do you ship anyone?

I mean I love all the main crew! Laois is really special to me, I really love how he's written and how kind the narrative is to his different strengths and weaknesses. Marcille is also so amazing, I love how her story plays out and realizing the sheer extent of how Fucked Up the poor girl is. and of course I am deeply and profoundly attached to Mithrun, I really like all the Canaries but he's so special to me 🐐

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

OH that wasn't deliberate LMAO I just don't think any dungeon meshi ships are particularly interesting. Marcille and Falin have lots of gorgeous gorgeous artwork and I am not immune to that but textually I think romance/sex is like the least compelling read of their dynamic.

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.

here’s how the other Eeveelutions react to bathtime 🛁🫧

[fantasy-anatomy-analyst]

How would society and civilization develop in an alien race that reproduces asexually? Since most social interactions are centered around finding a partner or raising a family, but here they're basically able to reproduce on their own and are sort of broadcast spawners but at the same time learned to band together with their own kind for survival and that's how they built a society?

I imagine broadcast spawning could perhaps be a holiday of sorts? Like once a year they gather in particular locations and release their eggs/spores/seeds out into the currents of the wind or the sea and by chance some of those get to mature and seek out other tribes, villages or towns to join?

So long as they have a reason to come together and be a social species, they can build up a civilization. Society is created through cooperative interaction.

I do like the idea of a species making a holiday out of their spore releasing season or whatever other form of broadcast reproduction they have! That's a lot of fun. Since infants need to be raised in order to learn how to be people, perhaps they also have a special group of adults that track the wind/water currents and travel around to find lost infants that managed to begin development outside any settlement.

Of course, civilizations would naturally have built themselves up wherever the currents are most likely to take their spores/etc. So the majority of babies will already begin to grow within an established settlement as the currents were already in place to bring them there.

Since this style of reproduction means no babies are likely to be raised by the same group that spawned them, I imagine there would be a higher pressure towards building alliance with whichever settlement typically receives the spawn, and perhaps more of a spiritual belief around the importance of cooperation when raising them. If a group can only raise children because some other group was spawning them, it becomes more important to maintain alliances with those people. They could find a way to spawn in a different current and skip right over your settlement!

Anyway, super fun concept! Hope these extra ideas were helpful!

Revealing the ignorance of my youth here, but who is this and what is she known for?

[boybeetles]

Anita Sarkeesian, feminist who interpreted media under a feminist lens. She did a series about video games and she was the subject of targeted harassment. That was the start of gamergate

[flurrin]

Minor correction, the start of gamergate was based around a different reporter, Zoe Quinn, but they were both absolutely violently threatened over their involvement in video game criticism and development. A hate campaign was started by Quinn's ex-boyfriend when he wrote a post falsely accusing them of dating video game journalists in order to receive positive reviews on their own game, Depression Quest, which led other bad actors to accuse all women in the industry (Zoe identified as female at the time) of perceived sexual immorality. Anita Sarkeesian's brilliant Youtube series Tropes vs Women in Video Games (which everyone should watch, right now) sparked a particular nerve for criticizing popular games of killing and/or victimizing any important female character (there is a CHILLING bit that borders on ludicrous where she describes the plots of a seemingly endless parades of games as "In [title], [male player character's] wife dies, and you then have to rescue [his] daughter."). That series did actually make a huge change in the industry, especially when touted by progressive legacy developers like Tim Schafer (Monkey Island, Psychonauts), who went on to expand hiring in his company to front women and minority voices, but the shift didn't really show for a long time and echoes of the sexism that plagues the industry at its core are still rampant.

[boybeetles]

Thanks for the correction! I was like 8-10 years old when this all went down (2014-2016) so I only know vaguely about it. I’m still learning about this.
