DREAMS ARE MADE OF THIS, WHO AM I TO DISAGREE

You forgot about the part of option 2 where you realize midway through explaining that the other person either understood and you misread the situation, or they just don't care, but now you've gotten too far into the explanation and you just have to power through even though literally every fiber of your being is telling you to shut up

... wait

He didn't even die there, if you can believe it. Though he is catatonic and carried home by Jean Grey. This is one of the few comic books I actually had.

Immediately after this, Xavier gets pissed and completely mind-wipes Erik, something he promised he'd never do. This causes a part of his psyche to splinter off, eventually kidnap Franklin Richards, and merge with him to become Onslaught.

Then an amnesiac, de-aged Magneto shows up to help the X-Men fight Onslaught.

Comics are wild, man.

I'll bet you anything that that user hasn't posted anything in almost a week. Just a hunch.

Toph had a very obvious crush on Sokka but never said anything (until the last episode, when Suki saved her from drowning and she thought it was Sokka). It wasn't outright stated but it didn't seem like Sokka reciprocated or was even aware of her feelings.

Ty Lee, on the other hand, was just a huge flirt.

I went hunting and found OOP's blog. There isn't much more to the story, which I will transcribe here:

until like LAST WEEK
professor B publishes a paper that casually drops the word "husband"
and obviously all the students are like "oh i didn't know u were married!" because we read that shit like how white suburban mothers read People Magazine
and shes like "yeah, it's Professor A"
and we all FLIPPED. THE FUCK. OUT
we thought the framed picture of the two of them on professor A's desk was ironic because hes that type of guy
like, you gotta understand, these two have gotten into YELLING matches in hallways. these two refuse to go on trips with each other. but apparently they have a system where they quite LITERALLY leave all of their work at work and drive home in separate cars and literally NEVER work at home. it is SO funny

I get it. It's one of the most innocuous "attacks" you could make against someone, but it also seems like stuff that other people would find harmless is what really gets under his skin. Like, call him a fascist, a criminal, manipulated by the Russians (all of which are true) and he just makes that stupid, constipated grin and his base eats it up.

Talk about how weirdly tiny his hands are, though, and he'll make sure to run into you personally on the street, once a week, for the rest of his sad life, to show you that, actually, his hands are perfectly normal. Larger than average, even. His ego can't handle being considered strange or abnormal in any way.

So the idea is the "does she look tired to you" (credit to Doctor Who) attack. Something quiet, innocuous, maybe even whispered to someone else, that is almost guaranteed to make him rip out his hair plugs. Can't effectively parrot Russian propaganda if you're having a meltdown about people calling you weird. Maybe it'll be the thing that finally short-circuits his hateful black heart.

Donald John Trump comes from a family of real estate speculators.

Akira Toriyama once said he based the character of Freeza on Japanese real estate speculators, who he called "the worst kind of people." (Source)

Am I saying Trump is Freeza? No, Freeza is several orders of magnitude more competent on his worst day than Trump was when he peaked in 1951. But I think it's important to underline, for the people in the back, what level of cartoonish evil we're dealing with, because for some reason people will read stuff like this and it won't sink in. Maybe DBZ will help.

I don't know. I'm tired, y'all.

It's Charles and Gina discussing the upcoming Boyle family vacation. The original line is "'Tent' singular? Charles, 'tent' singular??"

Then you saw a person with a really nice butt. Who wasn't doing anything.

I think what set off the recent wave is when she threatened legal action against the person posting her private jet's tracking information. She (or her legal team) was alleging that it enabled stalking, but the tracking data is public information so stalkers would already have had access to it.

Free software had a non-free extra bit that it technically didn't need. Accidentally got changed to need the non-free part in order to run which caused news stories. Now the change has been reverted so it's free again.

Superior Iron Man! The lead up to the story is: a lot of Marvel heroes were magically turned evil, things happened and they all were returned to normal, EXCEPT for Tony, who somehow managed to avoid being returned to normal AND hide that he was still evil, and went on to do some decidedly "modern billionaire tech bro" horrible shit with his advanced tech.

What a fucked up storyline. Still a good read, though.

For the out-of-the-loop: this is a reference to a Breaking Bad comic with Gus Fring and Walter White. I suppose it could be looked at as a commentary about how businesses shamelessly pander to LBGTQ+ folks during the month of June, but at its heart it's really just a dumb shitpost that was drawn exponentially better than the source material.

For real though, I love how the artist attempted to emulate Gus's smirk and it makes Maru look demented. No, really. I love that. 10/10, no notes.

I am ALWAYS interested in Oscar lore. Thank you for sharing.

You're about 16 years too late. He's already world famous for his portrayal of Fe Male.

I had originally written that, but I went and looked it up and it actually is "this". ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
