That does answer my answer greatly, thank you for the reply and explanation.

For your only child MikeyAU Do Lieutenant or Brute have some reservations on letting Raph become a host for the armor? Like they got attached to him after a few years together.

I’d probably say that Raph is kind of in the same boat as Casey (who was also taken into the Foot at a young age) in that Lieutenant and Brute sort of take on a mentor role and they definitely care for his well-being, but aren’t proper substitutes for parents. They treat Raph less like their child and more like an employee (to emphasize this, Raph wears a disguise and works at the Foot Shack lol). Raph is pretty much given free reign around New York as long as he doesn’t attract too much attention to himself.

Also, because they are a cult, they see Raph’s destiny to become the Shredder as genuinely amazing; they aren’t doing it with malicious intent (not that that excuses it, of course, because it’s still bad for Raph) , but because it’s the highest honor one can have in the Foot, and since he works so hard, and is naturally durable, it makes perfect sense for them to pick him.

Hope that answers it!

even if u only watched the movies or the show, ur media literacy is shot

Superpowers

In the distant past, when humanity was first evolving, an advanced race of aliens visited Earth and studied humanity. This race discovered something fascinating within a fraction of humanity’s genetic code: The Metagene. The Metagene allowed humanity, when under great stress, to develop superhuman abilities to survive. It was rare, but those with it could do great things. The aliens took some of them, and launched a breeding program to refine this gene. Over successive generations, the Inhumans were created, whose Metagene could be consistently triggered with the Terrigen mists, and only the Terrigen Mists.

As Human civilization progress, the Metagene experienced a mutation. This mutation lowered the threshold of trauma needed for the Metagene to trigger until the point that mundane puberty was sufficient to activate it. This mutated gene was dubbed the X-Gene. The mutants who possessed the X-Gene suffered under severe discrimination for many years, but as time passed, they grew to be the majority of the population. Over the years, there have been many names for these powers and their users. Mutants, Evos. Nexts, etc. By the era of All Might, the popular vernacular was “Quirk”.

Some attempted to manually trigger the Metagene. During World War II, a scientist by name of Abraham Erskine developed a serum that, alongside a specific radiological treatment, could transform even a sickly man into a man at the peak of human ability, in all fields the best a human could be without being outright Superhuman. Notably, the process performed by Project Rebirth worked on people who lacked a Metagene. This Project Rebirth produced Captain America, but shortly after his creation, Erskine was assassinated by a nazi scientist, and his notes were stolen. However, while his notes contained the formula for the Super Soldier Serum, it did not contain anything about the radiological treatment, and thus it was impossible to replicate Captain America. They didn’t stop trying however. With their continued research, they uncovered the Metagene, and switched focus from replicating the Super Soldier serum, to improving it. Making a serum capable of triggering the Metagene. They did not succeed at this during the war, however after it ended, the scientists in charge of the project were given pardons as part of project paper clip. This allowed Compound V to be developed, a substance that could grant Superpowers. The catch was that it had to be administered during Childhood, as adults would be driven mad by it.

Additionally, a number of humans were secretly given something called a Corona Pollentia by a predatory interstellar entity, which connects them to continent sized shards. Whose with Corona Pollentia are capable of undergoing trigger events, and developing Superpowers. These trigger events are often Traumatic, and afterwards the Shards subtly poke their bears into conflict, in order to gather data for the Entities. Those with activated Corona Pollentia are known as Parahumans. And due to human ignorance of their origin, they severely complicate research into superpowers. And most in the Public aren’t really aware of the difference between Metahumans and Parahumans

Do people forget what TERF stands for?  Do people forget what the R and F mean?

You don’t need to say “Radfems and terfs’.  That’s like saying "I hate flowers and roses”

John: Stop right there!

John: La- Lamar!?

Lamar: Who the hell is Lamar?

Female Portrayals in Video Games

Recently Overwatch released a new character, citing complaintsof a lack of ‘body diversity’.  Now, Idon’t like the character but that’s for a variety of reasons and that’ll becoming at a later date.  No, what really botheredme was this argument and the implications for a common trend in representation of women in video games.

To add some context, I’m a gay woman and I want to be a game dev.  I’ve loved video games and been a gamer for close to 15 years.  And I really feel there are pressing issues with the arguments for ‘representation of women in video games’.  I’ve made similar rants about this general topic before and you can find my most successful one here.

If you’re concerned with women, body types, representation, etc, I suggest you give me a fair shake and read all the way to the end.  More under the break.

I would let Steve Rogers bite me.

Unless he was a zombie.
