spider-man couldn't have been anyone
i mean according to the andrew garfield movies at least. lowk going on a. dumb rant but whatever
the spider venom was coded to richard parker so only someone with his dna could be spider-man. but it wasn't random chance that it but peter bc i'm gonna assume the spider knew peter had richards dna and got possessive.

Did you know in Melbourne, Australia theres a common piece of graffiti known as "garfies" that was absolutely inspired by your garfield breast reduction comic and even has a dedicated instagram page @/garfies_sightings. Example garfies:
No, I did NOT know of Garfies!!!!!!! I needed her in my life. Wow. I'm glad she's going strong because usually those cunts in the government like to destroy art like this. stay strong, melbourne!
Thank you for sharing!!!!

I have to confess something
And I know this might sound really fucking dumb, but I think Titans might have saved my life.
I was having extremely suicidal ideations between somewhere in 2019 and somewhere in 2022. I felt hopeless, like I’d already fucked myself out of every opportunity, like everyone had moved past me and it would never get any better for me. I had family and friends of course, but I knew that in the long run they’d be better off with me gone.
Now, of course none of this was true, I had plenty to live for, I’d accomplished a lot and still had more than enough time to do and experience even more, and even if that wasn’t the case, my life still mattered and was important, I just could not see any of that.
But I did have one thing that I simply could not say goodbye to before I knew how it would turn out. I had Titans, a divisive, sometimes brutally maligned show consisting of some of the most delightfully bizarre creative choices imaginable.
I had Kory Anders, who was everything I ever wanted in a Black female character, I had my core four, who simply belonged together better than any other four characters I’d personally witnessed in years but kept getting torn apart by their own demons, I had Dickkory, who were the perfect couple but just didn’t realize it yet, and I had all of their friends, some I adored, others, not so much.
It was the most fun, frustrating, weird, addictive show I’d ever gotten into and I NEEDED to know how it would end. So I kept attaching a caveat to my suicidal thoughts. I would end things, sure. I would take my paycheck, drive to a wooded area out of town somewhere, take a bunch of pills and just fall asleep, but not until Titans ended. I had to know what would happen.
And you know what? It ended, at least a whole season earlier than I expected, and while I was satisfied with the conclusion I didn’t get everything I wanted from the show and I likely never will. But something strange happened on my way to the finale, I got better.
I found new creative outlets, made new friendships, deepened old ones, let certain things go that were no longer serving me or making me happy, and by the time the opening chords of Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel played on the final episode of Titans ever, I didn’t want to die anymore.
I’m not saying that everything is perfect now, I still have doubts about my direction in life, I still get sad, I still get anxious, but I want to live, I want to see what’s next. So if you’re still reading this, and you’re feeling hopeless about everything but one silly thing that keeps you going, know that it isn’t silly, if it’s important to you then it’s important, if it’s keeping you here until you’re able to get the help that you need, then I’m so happy that you found that thing. It’s not silly, it’s exactly the opposite.
