SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE (2023)
Team Wildemount guests: I'm coming too! Our goals are now one.
Team Issylra guests: And thus, I leave you.
Orym looking at that wanted poster and hearing that, of all things, the Crown Keepers are still wanted by the Nameless Ones while all this shit with Ludinus and the Vanguard and the Solstice is going down: “Oh Nancy, we’re really in it now.”
Ashton, Orym & Laudna
What his deal with claws people?
why not just find your friends and leave?….
as broken and hurt as they are, i’m glad Ashton is there to ground the team
it is my life. no matter how awful it may seem to be. it is mine.
I'm really big on diversity here, and you are the goal that I wanna see. You're Latino, in a leading role; Joel doesn't have to be Latino. Joel could be anybody and that's where I get really excited. You're there, you're representing, and you can just be. You don't have to be, like, overly Latino. You might not be aware, but 75 years of Emmy history, and only one Latino actor has been nominated for Lead Actor - Drama. That's Jimmy Smits. He didn't win? He didn't win. I feel like I'm looking at, potentially, number two. Do you feel that wave coming-- That you can just be Pedro Pascal, an actor, versus; Pedro Pascal, the Latino guy that we have for Latino roles? Do you feel that change right now?
"Private submarine carrying several billionaire tourists goes missing while surveying the wreckage of the Titanic."
Well, it had to happen eventually. This is where big-ticket extreme tourism and shooting untrained assholes into space and such was always going to lead – frankly, it's surprising that it took this long for a major incident to crop up.
"One of the missing passengers is the president and CEO of the company that owns and operates the submarine."
Huh. Well, points for putting his money where his mouth is, I guess. I wonder if–
"The missing CEO's name is Stockton Rush."
Oh, bullshit. That's not a real person – that's the name of a guy who builds an inexplicably 1950s-themed underwater theme park and then gets eaten by a shark in a cautionary tale about the perils of libertarianism. That's the name of a guy who carries off an oceanfront real estate scam that somehow ends with Superman fighting a telepathic squid. Fucking "Stockton Rush". Unbelievable.
At this point I'm half-expecting the next article I read is going to reveal one of the other passengers is a self-styled "explorer" who has strong opinions about the continued geopolitical relevance of the British Empire OH WAIT
For the benefit of those who receive their news exclusively via Tumblr shitposts, the Titan submersible has been confirmed destroyed, and its wreckage has been located on the ocean floor. The current theory is that the loss of communication was caused by the catastrophic implosion of the vessel's pressure chamber during the initial descent; all aboard have likely been dead since the 18th, and there was never any hope of rescue.

The circle is complete:
1898: Morgan Robertson's novella "The Wreck of the Titan" is published.
1912: RMS Titanic hits an iceberg and sinks, in an event that almost beat-for-beat follows the plot of Robertson's novella.
2023: Oceangate's experimental submersible The Titan undergoes explosive decompression while retracing the descent of the Titanic.
NOW STOP NAMING THINGS THAT
Props to the titanic for increasing its death count 111 years later I guess
back in your arms, and i feel warm again
