...But he'd dress like this in the winter at his goofiest.

okay so i was thinking of a joke earlier about how in DPDC Amity Park's slogan "a great place to live" is not only city propaganda but also the city lording it over the rest of America for being normal. But then I remembered that, despite how many DCU Cities with heroes in it there are, the amount of cities in America without heroes still far outnumber the amount of cities in America WITH heroes.
So I did a little digging so the joke would still land. Something most heroes have in common is that they operate in major cities. What makes a major city? I found that the general consensus is that the population is roughly over or around a million. THEN I looked up the populations of cities in the DCU that I thought of off the top of my head. So Gotham, Metropolis, Starling City, Central City, Jump City. All of them ranked up to millions in population (most of them were in the tens of millions).
Amity Park's wikipedia describes it as being similar to specifically Philadelphia, Chicago, and San Francisco.
Philadelphia's Population: 1.576 million as of 2021
Chicago's Population: 2.697 million as of 2021
San Francisco: 815,201 as of 2021
Whiiich means that Amity Park if we take that from canon, is probably a major city. There are approximately 19,000 cities in America with probably less than a hundred that are major cities. Adding the DCU major cities wouldn't skew the data too much.
Which MEANS that I can make the joke that Amity Park's "great place to live" is not only just typical city propaganda, but also its Amity Park lording it over the other major cities for being one of the only major cities that doesn't have problems bad enough to warrant a superhero or a vigilante. Cue stage left the Fentons and Phantom :)
Amity Parkers were probably SO proud that they didn't need a superhero. They didn't have to worry about things like 'world ending threats' and 'super-powered individuals' and 'staggering property damage'. And then enter Fentons.
It also could be used as an excuse for why nobody took notice to Amity Park getting ghosts if folks like me aren't huge fans of the notion of a media blackout via Tucker, Technus, or the US Government. Or if you want to keep Amity Park as its urban city self. Amity Park's news on ghosts gets drowned out in a week because there's news on more popular, well-known cities going on every other day. The shit going on in Amity Park is every other major city's regular Tuesday and it gets filtered as such.

I am here, once again, with my Ao No Flag propaganda
These two specific panels of Toma were the thing that made me think over a year ago “Man. I want to be like that too” as in KAITO drawing expression because—
The subtle shift of emotion, it’s present all throughout the manga, but this is what sold it for me. For no particular reason, it’s not even the best example, it was just what sealed the deal to me

I Nimonafied a slightly glitchy shot from someone's free-cam video of Jak 3 and oh boy Jak is shorter than I remembered. Relatable.

Okay question for the evo fandom- didn't Martyn and Jimmy have the police station on Evo SMP? Is Martyn's "Task Force" bit a throwback to that?

It’s been said before and the fact that I’m an Izzy simp aside like having a character who survives the most certain death shit ever (shooting himself in the head at point blank) and literally being nicknamed by another character “indestructible” and then become a symbol of protection for a whole group of people die from a fucking bullet to the side that was established in universe to have no vital organs in order to “atone for his sins” or however you wanna spin it and have him say he wants to go after (see point one) literally trying to kill himself in the show that is literally about growth and betterment of the self in a cruel world that wants you dead and where the main (and mostly queer) characters survive the most batshit insane injuries is like COSMICALLY stupid writing like I don’t even understand how you get there and the fact that it’s supposed to be a kind/ happy/meaningful ending is beyond me

independent pet stores, specifically independent pet stores with fish are insane. I pointed out to the guy that one of the turtles was biting a smaller turtle and he was like oh my b thanks for letting me know. got a net, scooped out a bunch of goldfish which were FOR SALE in the neighbouring tank, and fed them to the turtles.

(some of) my favourite pokemon from that one favourite pokemon picker....not necessarily in order and there's definitely some guys missing here but nevertheless!
also i don't like picking from the same evolution line twice for whatever reason, so some of my favourites are lumped in on one guy (like the entire impidimp evolution line would be in here but grimmsnarl is representative of it)
i love u pokemon. can't wait to take this in another three years

Spoilers for Master Detective Archives: Raincode Chapter 2
god these three. The ending of this case broke me emotionally why Kodaka do you like playing with our emotions like this (note how this is oh so similar to V3 Chapter 3's main conflict with the Traffic Light trio...)
and if there's something that came to my mind in Ch2, its that them and Aiko... absolutely gay. Childhood friends to lovers. And to quote Kurane at the end "But now she's gone... Everything's hopeless now!"
also the fact that they willingly acted hostile to each other for im guessing almost half a year just so that could enact revenge says a lot.
