Hi,
Hope you are doing well.
I was actually thinking about the fact that Ben gets a lot of girls, which he does not want, and I was thinking something.
Are these girls in love with the real Ben, or in love with the image that Ben has created for himself because of his willingness to protect others? To me it seems a possible explanation as it seems that the real Ben was not the perfect guy they expected.
But, responding to him the way they did was uncalled for. He did not deserve the manipulation or being made the bad guy and someone should have called the girls out when they hurt because he takes responsibility for his actions.
I would like your thoughts on this.
If you're mainly talking about the love interests that were introduced after his rise to fame, then yeah, I am definitely of the opinion that most of the girls who show an interest in him do so because of something he has, status included. Looma and Attea wouldn't be fighting over him if he wasn't famous throughout the galaxy. It's a power move on their part. Kai almost exclusively keeps in contact with him because of how useful he can be to her own ends.
I wouldn't say that he isn't the "perfect guy" they expected him to be, as he was a FAR better boyfriend than people give him credit for (AND I WILL TALK MORE ABOUT THAT SOON!!). Idk if anyone noticed, but his best character traits extend to his relationships. Let's not forget that those traits - the aspects of his character that make him who is - are literally the reason he has the status and title he has.
But I'm not going to act like they recognize that. They don't, period. So I guess you're right.

With all the age discourse around Spider-Man Noir right now, I thought I’d compile parts of the comic that imply his age. I want to state that this pulling from his 2009-2010 comic run before the time skip, specifically the first volume. The spiderverse movie has taken a lot of liberties with the characters, so it is very possible that what Peters age is in 1933 in the comics is NOT what his age is in 1933 in the movies.
Peter’s age is not directly stated in his 1st comic run (I can’t speak for the 2020 ones because it has been a while since I read them, plus there’s like a 10 year jump). It IS however heavily implied that he is young. So much so that you can’t seem to go more than a page without someone referencing it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Like, these all happen in the same scene. The writers beat you over the head with it.
In this issue alone Peter is called both “son” and “sonny” once, “boy” twice, and “kid” 8 times. Outside nouns, he is also referred to as young, and when Urich brings him to The Black Cat, Felicia calls it “babysitting.” Urich also asks Peter if he is “allowed out after midnight” but after some research I can’t seem to find any evidence of NYC having juvenile curfews at this point in time, though they did exist in lots of towns in the late 1800s and early 1900s because of child labor laws. I think this instance is just Pete just being young and an adult being concerned about his well-being.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It is also mentioned in this volume, and again in Eyes Without a Face (vol 2), that Peter wants to go to college in the future and is currently studying & saving up money to do so. This alone doesn’t necessarily mean he’s under 18 as there isn’t a max age to apply for college, plus Peter comes from a poor family during the Great Depression. It wouldn’t surprise me if he started college later than usual because of that (lack of funds & catching up due to not being in school/working).
Tumblr media
There is other evidence that does imply he is under 18 though— he’s too young to drink alcohol!
Spider-Man Noir Vol 1 issue 1 starts in January 1933 before jumping back three weeks to December 1932 where Ben Urich meets Peter Parker
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It is during December 1932 that he meets Felicia Hardy who owns the speakeasy The Black Cat. Prohibition is still in place and won’t be overwritten until a year later in December 1933. It is important to note that before Prohibition was instated, the drinking age in New York was 18 years old. That law is what the characters reference when they discuss drinking age. And most importantly, Peter doesn’t deny the fact that he’s too young to drink. He just snarks back in true Parker fashion
Tumblr media
This is the most concrete evidence there is towards Peter being under 18 in the noirverse. It can even be argued that Peter is under 17 with how easily Felicia picks up on the fact that he’s underage (and that she does so from a distance might I add, as seen in the ‘babysitting’ panel).
There is also a panel where JJJ refers to Peter as an “orphan.” By definition, an orphan is a kid under 18. This is JJJ, so this can be taken with a grain of salt as he loves good ol hard-hitting words. When people speak they don’t always use words by their exact definitions; sometimes if you’re young and your parents are dead, JJJ is going to label you an orphan even if ur a legal adult lol. But if you take this at face value it’s definitely another indicator that Peter is under 18.
Tumblr media
TLDR; Spider-Man Noir from his 2009-2010 comic run is most likely under 18, and can be argued to be 15-16+. If not that, then is definitely college aged or younger.

Here's the Ben whump rant i talked abt in my last post,,,
Ofc heed the triggers and what not: Blood, injury, ect ect
Also take everything here with a serious handful of salt, im being dramatic as heck. So if you don't wanna see me get serious abt something that's not that deep, this probably isn't the rant for you <3
Anywho...
Do you ever think about just how often Ben gets the absolute crap beat out of him? Like in Grudge Match, I forgot how many times he gets flung about in his human form. He's ten years old, his bones are way too weak for all that. The amount of head injuries he must get is insane, and Max never once seems to take Ben's injuries seriously. 
Like that time Ben gets sick after sitting in the back of an ice cream van for like,, twenty minutes. He's ill to the point it's actively inhibiting his ability to play hero, blinding wildmutt with gunked up sensors and taking the heat out of heatblast. He's pale and sniffly and looks like shit, but Max still makes the executive decision to drag him out on errands instead of giving him time to rest. 
Also just cause he takes the majority of damage in his alien forms doesn’t mean those injuries suddenly have no impact at all. I think in alien force they were toying with idea of his injuries carrying over becoming more of a problem for him, with his busted knee in season one, and black eye in the episode where he gets grounded. Either way, it’s still implied that wounds translate over after he de-transforms, even if to a lesser extent. Not to mention all the scrapes and little injuries he must get from de-transforming mid battle (on the occasions he does).
FUCK, I mean Ben actually displays short term memory loss as a direct result of getting hit in the head in alien force, and Gwen isn't concerned about it probably because she grew up with Grandpa Max not being concerned about it. She doesn't realise just how dangerous this level of head injury is, what the brain inflammation and possible bleeding could do to him. She's probably looked him in the eyes, with his pupils blown wide, dazed and confused about his whereabouts, and then buried her concern because it's nothing new right? Ben's been dealing with stuff like this since he was 10, and Max, the ever responsible adult, never shows the appropriate amount of concern for it, so it makes sense that both Gwen and Ben don’t consider these things serious until its too late. 
Like not to get all dramatic about this and over think it (more so than I already am lol) but I’m positive this stuff would have long term consequences for Ben’s health as he enters adult hood, or even before then. Trouble recalling things, ringing in his ears, migraines and headaches as well a light sensitivity, all of these are symptoms of repeated and serious head trauma. Not to mention, paired with my personal headcanons about the burning chemical sensation of having the omnitrix fused to his flesh, leaking fluid into his bloodstream and scorching his skin. Or the chronic nosebleeds I think he would have as a result of all these other health complications. There's just a LOT that can be done with Ben whump, and I’m surprised it isn’t talked about/thought about more? 
Folks love the idea of Ben being functionally immortal (at least from injury related death), and the power fantasy that comes with being the weilder of the omnitrix, but what about the fact that he’s just some guy?? That the omnitrix failsafe doesn’t protect him from everything, and that if the injuries are bad enough to have triggered the failsafe in the first place, then where does that leave him in terms of recovering from them??? Sorry, sorry, crazy moment.

Kaitou Joker headcanons
- Definitely a Nintendo kid. He literally owns a DS in the series
- Religiously plays Mario Kart as Bowser
- Everyone stfu he probably listens to One Direction and OneRepublic. Maybe also a HINT of Odetari and 6arelyhuman for those moments he needs some badass motivation
- He gets along with kids because they remind him of himself. He sees a part of him inside them that he'll never get to be since they remind him of what it would be like if he grew up in a normal household
- That is until kids start being tiny little shits, that's when he's on the edge of duking it out on a 7 year old
- Hates being touched but also touched starved at the same time
- If he goes out in normal terms he'd prefer quiet and less crowded places so he could lower his guard a bit
- Probably studied a bit of fashion on his own I mean LOOK AT HIS DRIPS. THEY'RE ICED
- Is a Cartoon Network kid. Fear him.
- Definitely would watch Ben 10
- Queen drags him by the hair to watch Carmen Sandiego
- Got chased by Hachi with a chancla for eating his salted rice cakes again. Not forgetting Hachi's frilly pink apron
- Does NOT like the idea of cat girls. They remind him too much of Doubt
That's all I have for now if you have any headcanons to share with me PLEASE LET ME KNOW I'M ITCHING FOR MORE KJ CONTENT

"New York, you've been quiet."
Tumblr media
"That's new."
(tw alcohol)
There are ten visible 18oz cups on screen. Lowballing, I’m going to say this is all he has had. I’m also going to say each counts as 12oz since it’s possible they weren’t filled up all the way, also standard Budweiser can and bottle sizes are 12oz, so it’s an equivalent of one can/bottle per cup. I’m saying Budweiser bc it’s statistically the most popular beer in New York which. It’s also the most popular beer in the entire country so like. Whatever. I’m going for it.
Okay.
10*12oz=120oz
It could be either Budweiser (5%abv) or Bud Light (4.2%abv) and I’ll go with Bud Light, again going for the lower number.
In my heart of hearts I know this is Wildly going to affect the outcome of these results but God damnit I have NO other form of reference. So. I’m using Ben as a body ref. Personally I hc NY as around the same height anyway so fuckin? Sure I guess.
Ben is uhhh self stated to be 5’5 and 125lbs which LMAO I COULD THROW HIM SO FAR but also I’m gonna use that as the metric.
120oz of 4.2%abv for a 5’5 125lbs person is. HURRKKKHH A LOT LMFAO.
That rounds out to 0.29%bac (aprox 20h until 0%abv) at minimum
And for shits and giggles 0.5%bac (aprox 35h until 0%abv) at most (10*18oz(5%abv))
0.08%bac is the average level New Yorkers start feeling “drunk” (it’s also the legal driving limit lmao). The national average for that is 0.099%bac, so I feel comfortable saying it’s sssssimilar enough to just. Use those numbers with a pinch of salt which isn’t how math works but ffff.. Sshhh…
So basically, yeah, I guess based on my word and above numbers he’s anywhere between 0.29%-0.5%bac in that. If he’s only passed out that’s WILD LMAO
0.25%bac is starting stage 5 (level that passing out is listed at); 0.29%bac is the bottom line so it makes sense he would be passed out at this mark if his tolerance is above average which! Probably! It's fuckin New York!
But. 0.45%bac+ is like. Pretty damn assured death for errrrrrr. Most people!
So. Yeah! Between 116-200% tolerance when compared to average citizens. I know that’s a big discrepancy just play with me in this hypothetical math hell please!
The point of all this being. Yeah. I do maybe believe the states are a little tougher than humans and I had to justify it to myself in some semblance of reality
Thank you.

hello ino. have u seen the 2006 classic (best movie ever) aquamarine? the movie about a mermaid on land who has one week to prove love exists or else her father will force her to go through with an arranged marriage she does not want? the movie where she wears little starfish that compliment her as earrings and pours copious amounts of salt into her water before she’ll drink it and lives in a water tower with an inflatable dolphin?
just thinking about that. bc mermaid reg. I also think he would enjoy drinking salt water and flirting with the beach’s lifeguard.
i am going insane this is right out of the recesses of my mind im crying rose. i remember my refreshed mermaid obsession around my high school era and scrolling imdb looking for all mermaid movies 2 binge. i do NOT remember all the details but i am going insane abt jegulus-ifying this. i had 2 open it up and go rewatch some scenes bc now 10+ yrs later i realize how fucking funny this movie is
that one scene in the bathtub but it's regulus, tail hanging out, eating his fifth ben and jerry's tub venting to pandora how all human men are terrible and that he will use his redeeming qualities to make another fall in love with him
'he chooses her over me? she's a fish' :sob:
the dude going 'im going 2 get my rescue board' when there's a literal raging tsunami. why did this movie never receive its oscar

Brain dump time!
1. Much as I love the 'she fell first he fell harder' trope, there is not enough of the 'he fell first and harder' trope around. Romance writers, take notes
2. J.K. Rowling needs to answer my question on this. If a pure blood and a half blood have a child, what is their child classified as? A three quarter blood? I can't do maths for this I'm sorry if that's the wrong fraction
3. Taylor Swift needs to release NEED. I need it.
4. Wondering if I should read Percy jackson
5. Ben Barnes should get out of the swimming pool he posted on his story, we can't have both the black brothers drown
6. Defenestration is a cool word
7. Everyone in the world should own a salt lamp.
8. FAIRY LIGHTS. JUST YES.
9. I love Tom Hiddleston, but Thomas Sharpe is more icky than pond slime
10. King Kong from 'Kong skull island' is actually kinda cute. Not in the sexual way in the 'aw your puppy is so cute' way.
Thank you for your time <3

Oooh it's tipsy Ani ask time again, hurray! (before that though - I'm impressed you can use the cheese grater when squiffy, bc i have scarred knuckles from mishaps when stone cold sober 🙄).
My ask: top 5 Ben Whishaw hair moments...go!
Ahhh bishy I love you and I love this question! 💜
I have very many thoughts on Ben Whishaw’s hair (and I would love to hear yours, too!). Without further ado:
5. His NTTD Date Hair
Honestly it is not as wavy as I like it best, but still perfectly coiffed.
Tumblr media
4. His Hair in This Scene in Skyfall
A+ waves. His hair falls perfectly across his face here. Also I don’t know how to explain it but his hair is acting here; even his hair looks worried; I am not taking questions at this time, I just know I am right.
Tumblr media
3. Wherever This Is
Perfect scruff, 10/10, no notes. This is what I imagine a werewolf looks like when he is in human form and has spent a day at the beach, or used some of that salt texturizing spray. I am not taking questions on this either.
Tumblr media
2. This Scene in Skyfall
The hair that launched a thousand ships. His hair is acting here, too; it is looking at James Bond and it is INTERESTED.
Tumblr media
1. His Hair in Cloud Atlas
Honestly I didn’t even see this movie but I can tell even from this still that his hair deserved to win the Oscar for best actor; also I would like to touch it. Simply incredible that hair can look like this.
Tumblr media
Thank you @bishybarnaby! Ready for your hair opinions now. 😁

The Great Salt Lake is drying up and the Republican government of Utah is doing little to save it. They constantly cave to the usual groups: agricultural interests, mining, homeowners who like spacious lawns in an arid region, and big industry.
The largest saltwater lake in the western hemisphere has been steadily shrinking, as more and more water has been diverted away from the lake to irrigate farmland, feed industry and water lawns. A megadrought across the US south-west, accelerated by global heating, has hastened the lake’s demise. Unless dire action is taken, the lake could decline beyond recognition within five years, a report published early this year warned, exposing a dusty lakebed laced with arsenic, mercury, lead and other toxic substances.The resulting toxic dustbowl would be “one of the worst environmental disasters in modern US history”, the ecologist Ben Abbott of Brigham Young University told the Guardian earlier this year. Despite such warnings, officials have failed to take serious action, local groups said in their lawsuit, which was filed on Wednesday. “We are trying to avert disaster. We are trying to force the hand of state government to take serious action,” said Brian Moench of the Utah Physicians for a Healthy Environment, one of the groups suing state agencies. “Plaintiffs pray that this Court declare that the State of Utah has breached its trust duty to ensure water flows into the Great Salt Lake sufficient to maintain the Lake,” reads the lawsuit, which was brought by coalition that includes Earthjustice, the Utah Rivers Council, the Center for Biological Diversity and the Sierra Club, among others.
Political pressure has not been very effective in a state dominated by Republicans. The state's response is lukewarm at best. That's in addition to bizarre proposals.
The state’s Republican governor, Spencer Cox, has suspended new claims to water in the Great Salt Lake basin and appointed a commissioner to oversee response to the lake crisis. Last year, Utah’s legislature passed several conservation measures, including a $40m trust to support lake preservation projects. But Abbott and his colleagues, who authored a sobering report on the lake in January, found that those measures increased flows to the lake by just 100,000 acre feet in 2022. About 2.5m acre-feet a year of water will need to flow into the lake to bring it to a healthy level, the researchers estimated. That water will likely have to come at the expense of agriculture, which takes in about three-quarters of the water diverted away from the lake to grow mostly alfalfa and hay. Cities and mineral extraction operations each take up another 9% of diverted water. But wresting water away from agriculture is politically complicated. Officials have explored propositions to pay farmers to fallow land and use less water, though such proposals have yet to gain much tractions. Lawmakers have also offered up a series of out-of-the-box solutions – including cloud seeding, which uses chemicals to prompt more precipitation – or building a giant pipeline from the Pacific Ocean.
Seriously, a pipeline from the Pacific Ocean? This is a classic idiotic GOP way to deal with an environmental catastrophe which doesn't get to the root of the problem.
Already, the lake has lost 73% of its water and 60% of its surface area, and is becoming saltier, threatening native flies and brine shrimp. A diminished lake may be unable to support the more than 10 million migratory birds that stop over in the region. A white pelican colony recently abandoned a nesting site on the lake, potentially due to declining water levels. “In addition to the millions of people who live here, so many plants and animals depend on the lake,” said Deeda Seed, Utah campaigner at the Center for Biological Diversity. “The health of northern Utah’s entire population depends on the Great Salt Lake’s survival and I hope this lawsuit can help save it.”
^^^ emphasis added
Yep, take their asses to court to save the body of water which gave the state's largest city its name.
