can phil jimenez for once in his god damn life, not be a disgusting liberal virtue signaler for once

using “unusual but hopeful” to describe holocaust victims, writing that 3 years after the oklahoma city bombing, and having the goddamn gall to wax lyrical about keeping the moral high ground.

are you really going to waste your time trying to reason with people who are beyond saving? god i hope he never becomes a hostage negotiator

progressive, but how much do you think DC comics pays him to create shit like this?

more importantly

what kind of person chooses to waste their time writing and openly drawing nazi imagery?

no living man may hinder me: The Gilded Wraith of Numenor

from the Reverse Gondolin AU, based on @who-needs-words's idea for Ar-Pharazon's fate! (they also wrote a ficlet for it, check it out here!)

#silm #silmarillion #lotr #lord of the rings #witch king #witch king of numenor #ar pharazon #eowyn #reverse gondolin au #ooh i need to do this pose for fingolfin and morgoth #the parallels though! eowyn facing pretty much certain death #but being brought back by hope in the Halls #while fingolfin faced morgoth because he lost all hope #also: in the au sauron & pharazon took a bunch of numenorean tech with them before the Downfall #bc nobody attacked valinor so all the airships and engines and stuff were still on the island #so we get Steampunk Tech Numenor #(perfect symbolism w industrialization too!) #which means of course the witch king of numenor gets a Gun Sword #which is frankly terrifying #his face is still visible here bc the tiny bit of maia/peredhel ancestry (still like 20x more than aragorn tho) protects him from the rings #enough that his fea & hroa haven't faded; just been corrupted #also in the au bc of Prince Elrond's involvement in numenorean politics ar pharazon is way more aware of potential loopholes #in the 'no living man' thing #aka arwen and galadriel #and honestly he expected to be slain by arwen #so he still overlooked eowyn (and merry) #just for very different reasons #less hubris in a 'i am invincible' way #and more hubris in a 'you arent nearly important enough to bother paying attention to' way

ever notice how DC comics has an absolutely dogshit moral compass when it comes to the old cliche of “superhero liberates oppressed country” going all the way back to the golden age?

and it’s not just the industry, its the fanbase, how many times have we heard “why cant superman overthrow every dictatorship” get thrown around.

superman: earth-one actually did it right. if one person has power over everyone else and uses that power to topple governments he doesn’t like, what does that make him? not a good person

not the case with donna troy in tales of the titans#3, who steve orlando (known liberal) portrays as a overly moralistic, voyeuristic crusader with a “holier than thou” attitude that can’t even photograph atrocities in a respectful way. she acts like a glorified PMC mercenary breaking almost every international law imaginable and somehow its a good thing.

the issue itself is laden with exceptionalist propaganda (ignores the colonial origins of internment camps, for one). but hey! it’s ok! they put the baddie on trial at the ICC, so its fine! everything’s ok!

but don’t tell steve orlando that the united states isn’t an ICC member state and doesn’t acknowledge the authority of the hague. in fact, the US is critical of the ICC.

seriously don’t tell him though, because that’ll utterly destroy his idealized “i believe in the dream” romantic nationalism.

scratch a liberal, and a fascist bleeds.

another thing about lily orchard's vids that really kill their quality even outside of the batshit takes is that its soooooo clear she detests this job and only likes doing it for money. and like.... yknow, fair, you gotta make a living. not everyone loves their jobs and thats obvious. but a lot of people do video essays for the passion and engagement, to put their opinions out into the world and have a discussion.

when schaffrillas productions has a negative opinion, it's almost always in juxtaposition with a franchise or creator he wants better content from (or its for the bit) and its also entertaining bc hes not calling you a morally bad person for disagreeing with him. you dont get the sense that he resents the job, yknow?

watching lily in comparison is draining. she goes out of her way to make it look like her opinions are the Only Morally Correct Ones even when it doesnt matter and she speaks with such vitriol that you just feel bad watching her videos. she just comes across as exhausting

#it kinda reminds me of like a very toned down version of the nostalgia critic where he doesnt want to play that character #he wants to be a film maker but cant make it in that industry so hes stuck making videos that he hates making #and i think even outside of the allegations against his workplace that still kills his content #back to lo i think her laios take wouldnt be nearly as awful if she didnt go off about how hes morally corrupt and his fans are disgusting #like itd still be ableist bc of her reasoning and she'd still get flack but she had to go off abt how autistic ppl relating to him are bad #echoed voice

Yes, redemption arcs are good, but have you ever heard of corruption arcs?

When people say all the conflicts and genocides are connected it's really not an exaggeration. The more I read about one is the more I've learned about others and the people in power play in our faces.

From the article -

The Biden administration recently re-imposed sanctions on Israeli businessman Dan Gertler over alleged massive corruption in the Democratic Republic of Congo's lucrative mining business. Journalist Franz Wild reports on his remarkable rise, and his alliance with former President Joseph Kabila which even saw him being appointed a Congolese diplomat.

Former Liberal industry minister Navdeep Bains is joining Rogers as the company’s new chief corporate affairs officer, pushing critics to sound the alarm on a perceived politics-to-industry pipeline.

Rogers announced several new appointments to its executive leadership team on Thursday, including Bains and a former Shaw executive.

“This is a terrific opportunity to build on my commitment to champion critical issues facing both Canada and Canadians,” Bains said in a statement.

“It’s an exciting time to join the company and to work with Tony and the team to help grow the digital economy and deliver more choice, more value and more connectivity for consumers.” [...]

made these guys bc they're monsters of the week in s1e04 that i realized i could check off my list quickly

the Sparkbots are cute, compact little drones created by Principal Shockwave to serve as custodians, guides, and maintenance assistants for Teletraan, the JAAT's computer system. they're very nifty little things, obviously well made considering their inventor, and oh so useful... until Bludgeon gets his hands on them with a copy of the Unicron virus.

#unicron #sparkbots #faculty #corrupted relic #<-not exactly but thats my villain tag ig #in comparison to industry standard drones these are extremely good! in comparison to hero made stuff like sweeps or torchbearers... #sorry shockwave you just aint on solus primes level

#i mean i knew that the food industry is completely corrupt and cares abt nothing but money but it does feel like #an inescapable prison sometimes lol
