orange snails and apple turtles
Do people who watch the Across The Spiderverse movie understand what dramatic irony is?
From Miguel’s perspective, if Miles goes home and “saves” his dad the entire fucking universe will collapse. He has first hand experience with this, that was the Point.
We the audience know that this is a fucking kids movie, Miles is gonna find a way to save everyone or something. But MIGUEL DOESNT.
As far as Miguel’s knows Everyone Will Fucking Die. It’s not even the trolly problem! If Miles saves his dad then EVERYONE will die INCLUDING his dad. That was the FUCKING POINT.
Miguel is trying to save everyone, that’s what Spider-Man does. Tries to save as many people as possible.
Did y’all even watch the movie?!
if you don't wanna read the comics, besides just reading the wiki, this page from 2099 unlimited #9 also has a pretty good showcase of miguel's specific abilities

New Things to Beware on the Internet
On May 3rd, Google released 8 new top-level domains (TLDs) -- these are new values like .com, .org, .biz, domain names. These new TLDs were made available for public registration via any domain registrar on May 10th.
Usually, this should be a cool info, move on with your life and largely ignore it moment.
Except a couple of these new domain names are common file type extensions: ".zip" and ".mov".
This means typing out a file name could resolve into a link that takes you to one of these new URLs, whether it's in an email, on your tumblr blog post, a tweet, or in file explorer on your desktop.
What was previously plain text could now resolve as link and go to a malicious website where people are expecting to go to a file and therefore download malware without realizing it.
Folk monitoring these new domain registrations are already seeing some clearly malicious actors registering and setting this up. Some are squatting the domain names trying to point out what a bad idea this was. Some already trying to steal your login in credentials and personal info.
This is what we're seeing only 12 days into the domains being available. Only 5 days being publicly available.
What can you do? For now, be very careful where you type in .zip or .mov, watch what website URLs you're on, don't enable automatic downloads, be very careful when visiting any site on these new domains, and do not type in file names without spaces or other interrupters.
I'm seeing security officers for companies talking about wholesale blocking .zip and .mov domains from within the company's internet, and that's probably wise.
Be cautious out there.

Claude’s Asking the Questions We’re All Wondering (VW Spoiler)
edited to add bonus panel
One-legged Barnaby on his way to save his roasting hot dilf:
All of a sudden he feels no pain
Kotetsu and Barnaby are the type of partners to always have their locations on
Like they ✨LOVE✨ the fact that they know exactly where the other one is at any given moment (even though I’m sure they have an innate sense of where the other is).
Except for that one time when Kotetsu’s location glitches and it notified Barnaby that his partner was in a dumpster outside his house.
So Barnaby activates his powers and crashes through the roof of Kotetsu’s house to fight whoever threw his man in a dumpster.
Only to find Kotetsu in the kitchen, peacefully cooking and staring at him like: 😳
Suffice to say, Kotetsu NEVER lets Barnaby live it down and uses it as leverage in arguments like:
Barnaby: Look at all this paperwork! Why did you let it pile up like this!??
Kotetsu: WHY DID YOU GIVE ME THE WORST SKYLIGHT EVER!??
Barnaby: STOP USING THIS TO GET OUT OF STUFF. I SAID I WAS SORRY OKAY-
Let's Talk about Glasses for 1700 Words Straight - A Tiger and Bunny Analysis
And what those glasses represent!
So one of the things that stuck out to me in Episode 9 was Kotetsu's reaction. I think it's really interesting how it's like presented, because we see Kotetsu isolating himself from the rest of the team, not trying to get particularly close, his eyes hidden from the audience.
Now this is, of course, part of a set up. It's funny! Kotetsu lifts his head up, and he's wearing Bunny's glasses, joking about how he's never allowed to touch them. But the moment before is important.
At this point, we're viewing Kotetsu from an outside perspective, we can't judge whether his perceived upset is part of his joke or if its genuine, and the joke is a quick cover up. Here's my obligatory shout out to the dub because it's neat to see how things are interpreted by others. The dub takes the line "Bunny never lets me touch these." and adapts it to "Oh, just keeping an eye on Bunny's glasses." The dub version lends itself a bit better to an interpretation of a quick cover up, and the sub to the other side.
I think both of these make sense and have merit, so really lean towards whichever you want to go with is best.
Either way,
He's distracting himself. I believe this is part of how Kotetsu is coping.
