LMAAAAOOOO I have never heard 'I'm a proud straight white man' and it NOT come from some racist or bigoted asshole, same vibes as 'Why is there no straight pride month??'

2025-02-20 18:12:13 +0000 UTCPretty much my thoughts on Eve's dad, as someone who's known similar people. I appreciate Alicia's differing perspective, but she gave a lot of credit to the wrong person. It's not hard to differentiate between someone trying to overcome their insecurities and someone fixated on them. Eve's dad is absolutely the latter.

2025-02-13 04:40:52 +0000 UTCNah, what makes Eve's dad a bad person is that he's too much of an asshole loser to BE the provider & nurturer. He has this idealised version of himself that he wants to achieve, but he does nothing to better himself to become that person. And then he gets mad at others for trying to help him out because it reminds him how much of a fuckup he is. It's not other people's duty to cater to his insecurities.

2025-02-02 13:49:23 +0000 UTCI normally don't really comment and at this point it is pointless, but I just feel like I have to point some stuff, what I'm about to say is mostly how I feel and thinks about some of the stuff. With Cecil, the whole thing with Mark and stuff, you have to remember that Omniman also betrayed him, he trusted him and thought of him as a friend from what he said in season 1 but his trust ended with his team of heroes all dying and thousands of civilians dying too, which was his job to protect them. As for the ordering Mark thing, he promised Debbie that he will keep Mark safe and away from danger but by sending him to Atlantis he put him in danger so he ordered him to escape so he will be safe since his priority was Mark's safety. And yes I'm not saying he is completely pure, he is also doing it to keep Mark on a leash and find ways to defeat him (Viltrumites) but can you blame him after what Omniman did? He is having a hard time trusting that it won't happen again and wants to prevent it or have a way to stop it before it gets as bad as with Omniman. (That's just my feeling from watching the show not comics and spoiler free of the season) With Amber, I really like her, but yes I also think her outburst in season 1 is a bit weird, but at the same time in my brain I kind of get it, I think I will react the same way, think about it, Mark lied to her, hid his identity and she had to find it out herself, it probably hurt a lot knowing that he didn't trust her enough, but she couldn't really blame him or even scream at him since it would make her feel guilty, so it just bubbled more and more until she found an opportunity, when Mark ran away and came as Invincible, and she might have also noticed William's slip in season 1 of starting to say Mark, so she might have thought that he told William but hid it from her even thought they were together for like half a year, so she couldn't hold back anymore and just used this as an excuse to lash out and let her anger, frustration, jealousy and sadness out, I know I would be feeling like shit if I had to find something like that myself instead of being told that, since I would feel like they don't trust me enough. I wrote a lot about the father thing, but it was longer than both of the things above together, so I will say it short, I think that the reason he said about her being dangerous is because he is trying to make her quit being a hero, he already said it in season 1 that he wants her to quit and be safe and that her getting her powers was the worst day of his life, he doesn't mind being a monster and making her feel like shit if it will make her quit and be safe, remember that they lost their child already (Their real child is probably dead R.I.P) so they must be even more terrified than a normal parent and most would be extremely terrified, he is still a dick and stuff, and it doesn't excuse this or anything else he said and did that had nothing to do with powers and stuff like when she was a child, but that might be why he said this. The Cecil and Amber thing I feel more confident about (Still theories) but I'm not completely sure about his, it just makes sense if I try thinking of reasons and what he said before, but take it with a grain of salt. If you read all of this, do you have nothing better to do? Jokes aside, thank you for taking your time to read this wiki page full of stupid theories, and have a fantastic day.

2024-06-25 19:05:59 +0000 UTCThe 'random accident' origin stories are actually one of the rarest archetypes in Marvel, at least among the well-known superheroes. Also, nobody who's actually familiar with the comics would defend Iron Man 3.

2024-05-03 16:20:04 +0000 UTCIf you're looking for a trashy reality show to watch I suggest "I love me a mama's boy" it's so bad but soooo good at the same time.

2024-04-09 22:52:03 +0000 UTCThe other day at work somebody actually called me a "snow roach." I know they meant it as something mean, but it sounds so cute and adorable. I said, "We prefer Saltine Simians, thanks." I try not to be mean to people, but the service industry can bring people on both sides of the counter to lows they never thought possible. I mean, I swear at inanimate objects now. But for real, fuck that safe. I'm waiting for my Office Space moment with that bitch.

2024-04-06 11:01:05 +0000 UTCOn your comments about being proud of your identity: as a cis white man, I have to say, the concept of "feeling proud" of my identity is a strange/foreign concept. I'm sure it 100% has to do with the fact that I've never been made to feel lesser for my identity, which was completely out of my control. And I long for the day when racial, gender, or sexual identity is... I don't want to say irrelevant, but maybe inconsequential? Maybe I'm misunderstanding what is really meant by "pride". Or maybe I'm just too deep in the School of Iroh where I don't see pride as the opposite of shame. But identity feels like something that rather than feeling proud about, we just shouldn't feel shame because of it. Unfortunately, we live in a society where bigotry and bias 100% exists, even if the reasons are completely socially constructed. Race isn't a real biologically defined thing, gender is not a real biologically defined thing. They are concepts that emerged from the social behaviors we've developed. We've come a long way in understanding that, but we've still got a long way to go until it's universally accepted. And I'm rambling... my point is I agree with your point, Alicia, in a sense. I just still think the concept of identity pride is... incongruent(?) with my experience. So I'd love your input on it, or anyone's who has a differing view. Exposure to differing views (and good faith discussion/discourse) is exactly how I crawled out of the US Conservative Christian views that I grew up believing. Also, on a lighter note: why a fish got titties? That makes no sense on a biological level! Titties didn't evolve until mammals, mammals literally being called "mammals" because of the development of mammary glands. Sorry bros, but your lamia girls with big snitties ain't real, reptiles don't have titties either. (Fun fact: "fish" is not a recognized taxonomic clade. It's a paraphyletic descriptor of various clades. If "Fish" were to be a monophyletic clade, then humans and pretty much all land animals would be considered fish.) Final edit: Jesus, I empathize with Mark seeing his mom break down like that. My parents went through a rough patch when I was in my mid-teens. They had been together all my life and that's how I always pictured them, even though I have two older half sisters from my mom's previous marriage. But during that rough patch I would often go to bed hearing them argue downstairs, and even after my Dad moved out I could hear my mom crying her eyes out in her room. It was fucking heartbreaking. I remember one specific night where I just sat with my mom in her room as she cried into my chest. For years, I was the one that cried into my mom's lap, or laid in it as we would watch TV as a family. I think that was one of the few nights that I went back to my room and cried myself. It was a difficult time. Thankfully, my parents are still together and happy. But I really empathize with Mark there. He's got powers to help people in ways beyond our comprehension, and yet he's still powerless at that moment. All he can do is hug his mom and be there. Fuck, it's such a relatable moment. Kudos to the writers, fuck them, but kudos. Sorry for the dump.

Fenronin (Dorian Dubourg)
2024-03-19 19:12:11 +0000 UTCHe is definitely grooming the kid... and he is clearly doing it to save the Earth.
Miklar Sihn
2024-03-12 20:04:47 +0000 UTCHe does kinda do it by going down the full super-villain path. Lets remember his army of cyborgs, him using the insanely costly teleporter for everything and him planning ways to handle everyone of his heroes (as seen with darkblood, a being that got sent to hell for looking for the truth. A being that could have been used by Cecil if he would just have communicated with darkblood.)
Miklar Sihn
2024-03-12 20:03:26 +0000 UTCYup and she has probably gotten some. I was just mentioning the position she had on it in season 1, as it might explain why she is acting like that in relation to money.
Miklar Sihn
2024-03-12 19:59:08 +0000 UTCshe took time off of work after Nolan died so he had to have been funding their family still. Which gets confirmed here in season 2 later episode when they talk about the book deal.

2024-03-12 19:40:33 +0000 UTCSay what you want about Marvel Alicia, least they can present their movies and shows in a way that doesn't feel like an edgy 14 year old trying to act grown up :D <3
The Force
2024-03-12 06:29:28 +0000 UTCI give cecil a pass the shit he must deal with CONSTATLY that he needs a teleporter to move around at that age. Yeh he is under alot of stress too. I give him exactly ONE pass and that is it. He does seem to genuinely care about mark and saving the world.

2024-03-11 18:54:37 +0000 UTCWasn't talking about the dad. Was talking about the construction worker who told what if the building wasn't up to code. The dad had a solid point but was using it to push his opinion which was fueled by his pride and anger about his position.
DrewSB
2024-03-11 13:33:36 +0000 UTCyeah the dad has a point, but he is arguing it in the worst possible way, its like being pro choice but defending that position with the argument that people have a right to murder their kids. the dude is wrong but he isn't wrong at the same time.

2024-03-10 16:33:20 +0000 UTCHave to disagree with you on Cecil, as he is working off the perspective of protecting earth even if that means not being the nicest about it.
Icy
2024-03-10 15:23:44 +0000 UTCDebbie said that she didnt want any of the money, back in season 1. Cecil told her that she would be making enough to never have money issues again and she said no.
Miklar Sihn
2024-03-10 15:19:49 +0000 UTC12:50 the way you said that made it seem a bit like Mark's dad was doing the bad dog training bit where you rub the dogs face in something... But with a city.
Miklar Sihn
2024-03-10 15:03:25 +0000 UTCAs an MCU enjoyer: Yeah, 75% of it just sucks. The Netflix shows were peak though.

2024-03-10 13:07:06 +0000 UTCI really do prefer Amber this season, but god, that scene from S1 lives on in my head rent free, and I keep thinking back to it. It's clear they saw that scene was not popular and are trying to course correct, but part of my mind just stuck on it still. And to be fair, I hate that I am.

2024-03-10 06:40:37 +0000 UTCBtw the hanging bodies are from when the "Not Batman" guy hung them off for the police to get in S1 Ep1, but the Omni-man killed them all so the police never knew the guys were there.

2024-03-10 03:15:45 +0000 UTCOn one hand, good for the mom stepping up...BUUUUUT as someone who works with construction with both quality and Osha codes...the other lady has a point to. Building stable structures, especially right after major disasters is a huge undertaking. Even if Eve uses her powers to make a picture perfect apartment building, doesn't matter if the whole thing collapses all over again.
