Off the top of my head...
They made a founding Avenger change from a guy who could grow really big into someone who could shrink really small
They made the Punisher become an angel, and also later into frankensteins monster
They made Iron Man change from a guy who wore super armour to a guy literally composed of nanobots
They made the WW2 Human Torch into Vision
They made a former Bucky into Captain Marvel, and also later into Abomination

As a person with ADHD I can't even begin to explain how draining it is to keep track of everything on my own. I regularly have to call my mom, like... once a month, just to get her to help me when it gets overwhelming. It's embarrassing. I like having my own space but the monotony of it all is literally eating away at me and making me feel on edge literally all the time.
I think I'd be better off with a roommate who could yell at me sometimes.

Quote:That said, they couldn’t have anticipated the degree to which that story would tear apart the discourse about American superhero comics for more than a year. Indeed, the still-ongoing story line in which Cap turns into a baddie has become the single most radioactive topic for the comic-book commentariat. Hardly a week goes by without some kind of fight between Spencer and his critics, usually in the highly flammable environment of Twitter. No matter what side you take, the debate over this villainous turn has been fascinating to watch — and it has raised serious questions about how brands and creators can healthily interact with the fandoms that fund them.

Quote:Last month we learned that Tony Stark would be stepping down as Iron Man, and bequeathing his role to Riri Williams, a young science prodigy who had fashioned her own version of Starks's Iron Man suit. Now, in a WIRED exclusive, Marvel has revealed that when Williams officially steps into the role this November, she’ll be known as Ironheart.
maybe these aren't identical to changing how powers work but with comics it's all completely up in the air and malleable at all times
they fundamentally rework characters constantly

On a  note, I kind of feel like this is almost a 'mask off' moment for what 'intersectionality' is actually striving for - anything but 'white cishet man', so categories are defined explicitly as oppositional.
"POC" = not white
"Gay" = not straight
"Trans" = not cis
"whatever" = not man
e: its like the No Homers club, but en masse

Quote:Trying to keep this vague on purpose.
Friend of mine had a professional over to his house to do a job. In a group chat, they sent out a message "So and so is here, they're REALLY fucking hot." A few people asked for pics, even suggesting that they stealth a pic. Which they then did. And then sent to the group chat. Now, the pic wasn't sexy at all, it wasn't an upskirt or anything. But it was still a stealth pic of a person just trying to do their job, for the purposes of sending to a group to show off how hot they were.
I found this creepy AF. When I mentioned this to a single person also in the group chat, they didn't quite agree. "If they had sent the pic unsolicited, that's just creepy. But we did ask for pics, so the creepy was spread out across the group..." as if it made it okay.
So here I am, questioning my sanity. It's not right to take stealth pics of professionals in your house while they're working for you like that, right?

Unlike what some of the cunts on the Shostacord would have you believe:
- Taking the piss out of hyperbolic online trans idiots who behave like idiots is not transphobic.
- Criticising the fucking idiotic behaviour and rhetoric of Reeeeesetera's trans mafia is not transphobic.
- Questioning the professional conduct of medical people offering trans health care is not transphobic.
- Pointing out the ridiculousness of the "trans genocide" is not transphobic.
- Shosta's little insurrection was not about the shitbin thread nor the quality of discourse.

I know it’s just coworkers trying to make small talk, but I always feel pressured to say I did something cool, novel, or impressive when the reality is "I went for a walk, played video games, did some chores around the apartment" like 70% of the time. And you know what? I am generally fine with that. And yet, it makes me feel a weird amount of anxiety to try to dress that up in a way that feels more "socially acceptable" when answering these questions that I inevitably get asked every single week.
Anyone else relate, or am I just being a weirdo by being bothered by this?
