Oh yeah, I forgot about him. No excuses there...
I like to think Conquest always whispers his darkest secrets to people he's about to kill because he has nobody to chat with. "I love rainy days, fluffy kitties, and double rainbows. Take that to your grave." *CRUNCH*
I don't have an issue with the believability of Cecil's dumb hubris nearly as much as I do with the fact that in the Invincible universe, not only can you survive after your head's been shattered into a literal pile of goo, but you can also still talk to request medical assistance.
And it adds extra salt to the Morningstar's wounds to make what they do in "Season of Mists" be that much more vengeful and petty no doubt. đ
Hi Neil! Iâm wondering why Morpheus battles Lucifer instead of Choronzon in the show!!
PS Iâm absolutely in love with the show so far
PPSđ thanks for being the best story creator ever âşď¸
Because we wanted to keep Gwendoline front and centre.
Hail to the queen, baby.

Paleontologists completed a life-sized replica of Sue, the most complete T. Rex ever found.
And she is freaking GORGEOUS!
As I read more about this beauty, I found out some new details regarding things I thought I previously knew about the beast that was Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Iâm going to share them with you.
First, and most obvious, her size:
This is nothing new, we all figured T. Rex was big, but I for one never stopped to consider exactly how big it was. Nobody ever really knows what to imagine when they read about something the size of a whale that walked around and ate everything it could kill.Â
Speaking of eating things, I just want to remind you all that T. Rex hadâby milesâthe strongest bite of any terrestrial animal living or dead, somewhere around six and a half tons of force. Thatâs over six times greater than the current estimate of what Allosaurus was capable of, and three times what was delivered by the highest measured reading of the living title holderâthe estuarine crocodile. It didnât have to waste time swinging its head open-mouthed like Saurophaganax for a little extra oomph, or grow fancy serrated teeth like Carcharodontosaurus to cut pieces out of its prey. It opted for the simplest approach: get its mouth around something and crush it to death; imagine the full weight of an elephant on whatever was between this thingâs jaws.
âHow did it find something to eat?â I hear you asking. âIt canât see something if it doesnât move, right?â
Listen, I love Jurassic Park too, but thatâs a big crock of shit.
Notice how both her eyes face forward. That gives her binocular vision (the ability to focus both eyes on one target, like you and I). More importantly it means she has impeccable depth perception due to overlapping fields of vision from each, large, eyeball. Researchers agree that T. Rex not only had incredible vision, but that it was probably better than most modern animalsâincluding eagles, hawks, and owlsâand that she could likely spot something three and a half miles away. If something that big can see that well, it doesnât matter if you move or not, sheâd be able to tell if it was an animal trying to hide or a piece of vegetation. So pray she isnât hungry if she lays eyes on you. And even if by some miracle she didnât see you, sheâd still smell you.Â
If she decided you looked tasty, you probably wouldnât hear her coming as much as youâd feel her. Modern science indicates that T. Rex didnât roar like in Jurassic Park, but rather bellowed or maybe even hissed like crocodilians. If she were on to you, youâd most likely feel this sense of unease creep up your spine as a low-pitched rumble in the air permeated through you. You wouldnât know what it was or where it was coming from until you hear her footfalls. By then itâs too lateâyou could try to run but sheâd probably catch you. Thereâs plenty on YouTube that reconstructs what T. Rex may have sounded like, and itâs legitimately haunting. Â
To wrap all of this up, the one bit of good that came out of the cursed year that is 2020 is that this wonderful child of science and art came into the world, and reaffirmed my respect and admiration for the eight ton slab of muscle and teeth that is this magnificent creature.
âŚand it is nothing if not magnificent.
Patton seems to agree ^^
"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."
"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."
One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.

Yâall you have absolutely no idea how much the end of Sonic 2 decimated me
Same silly hand-wringing, different format. No wonder Neil is at home here on Tumblr
below is the letter received by Neil Gaiman from the âconcerned mothers of americaâ in â92, and his response :)
he mentioned this letter in a recent interview with Pink News:
âI remember getting a very grumpy letter from the âConcerned Mothers of Americaâ, informing us that due to the number of gay characters in Sandman they would be boycotting us and we had to repent,â he said.
âWe never repented and the sales just went up, and up, and up. So I never really worried about their boycott.â
Okay... but y'all, as dark as it was... CRWBY could have made it so much darker
They could have cut up and bruised Ruby's face after her Aura broke and she took all that physical abuse, especially with Ozpin brutally caning her like an abusive father or uncle
We could have heard squishing and crunching noises when Neo stomped on Little
They could have painfully, heartwrenchingly, drawn out Ruby's suicide with the poison making her jerk and choke and dribble bile in a disturbing parallel to IRL suicide by ODing or drinking bleach/antifreeze
They would have been forced to up the maturity rating if they did, so they didn't, but can you imagine...?
EDIT: And oh dear... how could I forget all the rape imagery around the Curious Cat standing on top of Ruby, penetrating and violating and dominating her in multiple meanings of those words at once. They could have made it so much worse by having the Cat purring, nuzzling, and licking Ruby as they brag about the act of being inside and a part of her, how much they will enjoy it...
I am not okay...

I just chalk that up to Viltrumite's having a slightly slower version of Wolverine's healing factor and call it a day... đ

The big bad of Final Fantasy XV
A man whose flawless charming and suave troll personality is belied by the sheer *tragedy* of cosmic hell he got put thru that its a miracle he can even fake a smile
Unfortunately, Jaune's now in the camp of cosmic plaything.....I believe I hear sauve man named Ardyn Izunia welcome him into the group.
Who the shit is that
I blame the movies we watched growing up framing black widows, tarantulas, and even just regular spiders as dangerous and unsettling
You know whatâs wild? I hear people all the time talking about how theyâve been bitten by spiders. And the truth is that spider bites are so incredibly rare, constantly misdiagnosed. Do your research or ask anyone who studies them. Spiders are simply not out here biting people.
But whatâs even more amazing is how adamant people are about seeing spiders as biting people when you know who does bite people? All the time? Ants. Why do people not fear ants? But this fantasy of spiders biting them gives them severe avoidance instincts. Like have you ever sat on concrete. Or in grass. Or outside at all ever? Ants are biting you. That little pinch you felt under your thigh? Thatâs some little fuckers mouthpieces grabbing your leg my dude.
It just doesnât make sense to me? Why do people fear spiders but not ants? When ants are so much more likely to walk on your person than spiders, and in many cases will bite you if you donât know theyâre on you. Someone explains this to me. And donât say spiders are bigger and creepier bc have you seen bullet ants
This is not to throw shade on ants. I think ants are fantastic and beautiful little guys. But seriously why are we demonizing spiders when ants are literally sitting right next to them biting u
