Day 160/365 of listing something good I saw today:

Met up with this guy I've worked with for a collab as he was visiting finland. He's a foodie and wanted to try a restaurant with genuine traditional finnish foods. It was weird seeing someone be at a fancy restaurant and order fish soup that looked exactly the same as the fish soup we had at school lunch on a regular basis for 10 years of school. It's good soup, though. Never seen squeaky cheese be served with cinnamon sauce, either. He was a fun guy too, and I know that reading this he'd leap at the opportunity to make a mushroom pun.

Just as the starter dishes came he discreetly dug up two pills and put them on the table, asking me if I've ever done real drugs, like LSD. I was trying to figure out how to explain that I'd be down to try, in some other kind of circumstances, but stumbling home high on unidentified substances unexpected would stress the shit out of my boyfriend, and I don't want to do something like that to him.

I had just explained that I've never gotten the opportunity to try them, when his pokerface maxed out and he lost his shit laughing. He was fucking with me. Those were his motherfucking diabetes pills.

In 2015, the official Rayman Twitter account posted three images featuring parodies of Mario-related Nintendo games featuring Rayman in Mario and Luigi outfits.

Top: a parody of the Donkey Kong arcade. Middle: a parody of Super Smash Bros. Bottom: a parody of Luigi's Mansion.

happy pebble pride

[gluedwithgold]

To celebrate me finishing my last final, here is a list of every subject I wrote an essay about in college:

- How the YouTube Minecraft series “My Minecraft World is Deleting Itself…” by Wifies is the best modern example of prolonged childhood grief disorder and how using this method of story telling makes previously stigmatized disorders more understandable and relatable to the general population

-How the Transformers character Starscream represents the trauma and gender dysphoria of intersex people who’s autonomy was taken from them before they’re even born and how Starscream’s loss of autonomy alongside his gender dysphoria explains his behavior in the comics.

-The evolution of human feet being the perfect example of natural selection. Then going into speculative evolution with humans conquering other planets and how our feet would adapt to terrains of said alien planets.

-How the modern world would be different if Icarus died by flying too close to the ocean instead of the sun. (Hamilton and My little pony get referenced in this one)

- Why green themed characters are absent in western media targeted towards little girls and the idiotic marketing strategies of "girls vs boys" for selling toys

- Using the metroidvania “Ori and The Blind Forest” to explain the symbolic use of the color purple in storytelling (Hollow Knight's use of yellow gets mentioned in this one)

- Why “Harry Potter Hogwart’s Legacy” is a Natzi power fantasy

- Pretty privilege affecting endangered animal conservation and why bees are fish in California

-How the use of the harp in James Joyce’s “Dubliners” represents the internalized forced feminization of male characters

-Why the Greek god Apollo does not have a Roman/Italic counterpart

Yeah you can really write about anything in college as long as you are super passionate about it. And only two of these were for my major!

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.
