I'm thinking about watching Hamilton but I have enough self knowledge to know that it will probably take over my mind for the next few months if I do and I don't know if I'm ready for that kind of commitment yet.

Hey y’all! Weird question time. Do you know of any treatment for flicker vertigo besides removing the flickering light?
Everything I’m finding just explains what flicker vertigo is and says it’s rare which is. Unhelpful.

i think in the finale yaz should say “i think you need a doctor” and she should kiss 13 and there shouldnt be a scifiwifey reason for it like 9 had to kiss rose but while shes kissing her she handcuffs her to the tardis console and the doctor doesnt notice bc shes being kissed by yaz can you blame her but then yaz takes a step back, expresses her intentions like 12 does in the doctor falls to bill and nardole after missy leaves with the crucial difference that yazs intentions are not to die and take as many as possible with her, but to live and save the doctor and oh yeah maybe the universe too.
and the doctor tries to grab her to stop her but shes yanked back by the console shes handcuffed too and yaz is just of reach (oh the irony) and yaz just looks at her like the doctor looked at her in timeless children, apologetic but determined, and then she just turns around and leaves without saying anything else and the doctor yells at her to come back of course and yaz doesnt of course but THEN emergency programme one activates and yaz has left her a little hologram message that wears a rueful little smile and says:
“emergency programme one! didnt know i knew about that one did you? lots of things you dont know about me. your turn to listen now, doctor. your turn to stay put. im sorry to do this because i know how it feels but hey at least im planning to walk back in through those doors in an hour or two. you never gave me that certainty. so chin up, bighead. we’re almost there.
ive got a plan. it’s more of a plan than you tend to work with [oi!] but im not as much of an improviser. we’ve all got our strengths. but the thing is for this plan im gonna need someone here.”
then she explains exactly what she needs the doctor to do and when, some technobabble that im not writing bc we’ve all got our strengths
“so theres your task. im sure you’ll be brilliant. [how am i supposed to-] you can reach all the necessary controls from here, ive made sure. [...youve thought of everything] of course i thought of everything i learnt from you didnt i? and if im wrong im sure houdini taught you something about how to get out of handcuffs.
but even if he did, please stay here, do as youre told, and we’re all getting out of this alive. tea at mine after? i owe my family an explanation. gonna need your help with that because i dont think i even know where to start. i believe youve got some experience with that.” theres a beat and hologram yaz takes a deep breath “so, see you soon. and i love you”

Strange #6 Review
In which a writer (Jed <3) has finally addressed Wong’s problematic portrayal and we’re very grateful for it.
I’ll repost the very first page because there are two things I want to address here.
Tumblr media
First is, Wong's father is called Hamir. But Wong is a surname, not a first name, so it’s possible that Wong is a family name in this context. Besides, there’s a non-616 reference to Wong’s first name in Marvel Adventures Super Heroes #9, in which is revealed to be Jason. This is not canon in 616 but I'd love that as much as I’d love his long hair to be a thing.
Tumblr media
Second is the fact that FINALLY someone addressed the problematic narrative of servitude that I’ve been talking about for ages. And even though Stephen refused to be called master, it doesn't exempt 60 years of bad writing, especially knowing Wong is a POC. His entire life was shaped by it and I cannot stress how problematic it is for both representation AND his subjectivity as well.
Tumblr media
Wong doesn’t blame Hamir, but it’s still a systematic problem and unfortunately it hasn’t been properly vanquished from the Sorcerer Supreme’s lore. It just pains me that, even though I’m aware that Wong loves Stephen, I’m not comfortable with the idea that his life is centered around the Sorcerer Supreme (same goes for Clea and Stephen btw). This is why I loved the fact that he moved in v4 and decided to start his life anew. I keep saying this every week but I’ll always vouch for Wong to have his own mantle outside Stephen’s lore.
Now, back to the chapter. We’re finally introduced to Flickering Jenny and I regret ever loving her at first sight because she’s not good news, as seen at the end of the chapter.
Tumblr media
Off-topic but this panel of Bats has so much meme potential, I can’t!!
Tumblr media
Okay, another detail is how Wong’s guilt works here. Because he also feels responsible for his Stranges...
Tumblr media
And so Wong wants his memory back. Of course, Jenny would give twisted advice because it interests her that Wong stays in the dark. But he’s not happy about it and so he calls Black Widow to seek some tactical advice.
Important: Natasha is a dog person!
Tumblr media
Natasha doesn’t know much about what they’re up against but she can tell that the cartel is after the Sorcerer Supreme because she’s preventing them from controlling territories.
Next, a gang called The Lost Boys corners Wong and Bats. And I absolutely ADORED THESE PANELS.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They portray Wong’s rage and frustration with such sensibility and depth. He has so many reasons to go wild and I’m just so grateful it was depicted this way because it gives him the layers he deserves as a character. It’s just so infuriating, the fact that Marvel adapts some aspects of the MCU and adds them into the 616 (Agatha looking like her MCU version in Midnight Suns, for starters, but I could go on and on), so why is it so hard to give Wong the proper depth? A better, less problematic characterization that depicts him as his own person, full of layers and sides we don’t know yet? Better yet, his own mantle? MCU!Wong has it all, even though he’s underused. Surely they can do the same in comics!! I’m begging at this point. I’m very grateful for Jed but this is not even the beginning for a character who has been wronged for 60 years!
Anyways, back to the chapter. They’re now heading to the X-Men!
Tumblr media
I need to explain this part real quick. I was not expecting Mysterium to be the main conflict between Clea and the mutants. If you read Hellfire Gala (or saw my posts), you know why Clea has reasons to be mad at the mutants. Emma refused resurrecting Stephen, even though he has helped them plenty of times (Jean mentions Extraordinary X-Men, when Stephen and the magic community helped Illyana teleport the school to Limbo, but I could mention the several times Stephen aided Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Xavier and even Emma herself. Also, no need to mention Illyana, right?)
Instead, Jed opted for mentioning Mysterium. For those who don’t read X-Men: Red and/or Guardians of the Galaxy, Mysterium is a new element made by mutants, with antimagic properties. The Guardians and Doom used a giant bullet of said element to defeat Dormammu, the Living Ego. So yep, this is probably a clue, even though I wonder if it will be explored it all, assuming Marvel hinted Fall of X. Besides, it’s odd that magic users such as Illyana and Pixie didn’t mention the issues with Mysterium. But I digress...
Let’s take a look at Wong’s memories.
Tumblr media
There are two elements I haven't mentioned yet. One is a reference to The Oath, in which Stephen tries to find a cure for Wong’s cancer. No writer has ever explored Wong’s cancer again, which I find a missed opportunity.
But the second gives me mixed feelings. This is hardly one of my favorite stories, so quick context: Imei was Wong’s promised fiancée, chosen by the order that protects the Sorcerer Supreme. In other words, Wong was forced to create a family so his son would serve the next SS. At some point, he learned how to love her, but she was killed by Salomé before they could get married. Wong blamed Stephen for it and was seduced by a demon called Xaos who used Imei’s shape to deceive him and seek vengeance. Yep... 90′s, am I right?
Tumblr media
I don’t like this arc for obvious reasons but well, it was not ignored by Jed. He really went through the last issues of Sorcerer Supreme and for that, I salute him.
Back to the spell, Jean has to go deeper in order to defeat it. As a defense mechanism, it gives Wong his worst memories. And thus, we have the most painful of all, the one that hurt even us readers.
Tumblr media
Despite the pain, Wong retrieves his memory, and now he knows what to do.
Back to the Bar With No Doors, he confronts Flickering Jenny, who turns out to be a former agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s magic division. The Blasphemy Cartel is W.A.N.D. and they want to assassinate Jenny.
Tumblr media
And so, the chapter ends.
I absolutely adored this chapter and I think there should be more like this one starring Wong, or at least exploring his layers. It was good to see Garbett’s art again, although I love both Garbett’s and Marcelo Ferreira’s works.
I don’t know what the Blasphemy Cartel wants yet, but since I’m not familiar with S.H.I.E.L.D., the revelation didn’t hit me that hard.
With that said, I can’t wait for tomorrow’s issue. Clea and Stephen will meet again and it will be SAD (I have sources that told me what’s going to happen so expect ANGST).
See you there!

i always thought that part of the galra's dependence on quintessence was because it had become a part of them. like, they used it so much and it surrounded them so much that over the 10,000 years their bodies adapted to be able to handle high levels of quintessence. and one way that was shown was their pupil-less eyes, bc krolia has pupils, doesn't she?
as i'm typing this i'm realizing this might be a headcanon i liked? idk it's been a few years since i've watched voltron and as it is a kids show maybe they gave krolia pupils to show that she's Different and Like Keith
Yeah, the stuff with their pupils is definitely headcanon, though it has some basis- after all, we know Zarkon himself at one point had pupils, and it was his exposure to quintessence (and funky fun rift creatures) that changed that.
(I also headcanon personally that dependence on quintessence has made it so only a few Galra infants are actually carried to term, and why the Galra now breed largely through artificial methods.)
So while I do think that the dependence on quintessence has altered the Galra themselves in a way, like... it's still not a great argument to keep it up. Obviously quitting cold turkey might not be the solution, but by gradually weening the Empire its dependence on quintessence and introducing other sources of fuel/energy, it's entirely possible to make changes in that department and eventually have new generations that no longer have the effects from quintessence.
