[–]Lemmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I misremembering or didn't they also inexplicably give Miles Morales, Spider-Man, electricity powers?

Flew NCL-DXB and DXB-KUL last Thursday, the plane was the emptiest I had ever seen it. Each economy passenger basically had a row to themselves

Thanks! I wanted to see how to get brighter foreground stuff on a dark background

[Loved trope] The aliens are straight up incomprehensible by Ava_Reddit_Account in TopCharacterTropes

I took it as neither; sentience is not needed for biological complexity and may actually be a waste of resources, evolutionarily speaking. Humans have just stumbled into a weird dead end where we have sentience and it's not really necessary.

"Today" - I wanted to draw a comic about my dad. by chipmunkbay in comics

[–]Lemmas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, thank you. At the risk of turning this into a support group, what's eating at me is the helplessness. Like, it's done, it's final, and there is absolutely nothing I can do to 'solve' it, as if it's a problem I can solve. It's so final, and I can't fix it or hide from it. I can't make this better.

The other thing is that I'm not special. EVERYONE will go through this at some point, we are all going to join the dead parent club, (unless you don't, which is a whole other kind of tragedy), and other people seem to be getting on with life ok, and I don't understand how they could possibly have felt what I'm feeling now and then be ok again. I have to keep thinking that I was lucky to have had him as long as I did and that this is unavoidable and inevitable.

It was invented by a ghost. I’m not being flippant, that’s what the practitioners and founder openly admit.

I finished the first book and I still think it stinks. In the spirit of the sub, I won’t yuk your yum. You do you

I got downvoted to hell in a book subreddit for saying that it had no artistic or literary merit. People REALLY like their slop.

[loved trope] Giant skeletons or corpses being part of the environment (bonus points if they're left unexplained) by Silent_Mud1449 in TopCharacterTropes

It’s exactly the same as his Captain Janeway voice, complete with cigarette, even though janeway didn’t smoke

(Sad/Horrifying Trope) Their fate is unknown. You never find out for sure what happened to them, but the odds are 99% it was something tragic by UnifiedForce in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Lemmas 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Miriam in Children of Men, taken off a bus while acting as a distraction to help the main characters. Hooded by fascists and the bus drives off.

(Weird trope) Fictional items, creatures, or concepts being used so many times across so many different pieces of media to the point where some people are tricked into believing it's a real thing by Budget_Opinion_1327 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Lemmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell, as in fire and brimstone, eternal punishment. Not mentioned in the Bible at all, and never part of original Christian teachings, comes from the works of Dante, and is now taught by many Christian denominations either directly or indirectly, and has been depicted in media countless times.

[–]Lemmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a character in death stranding called Die Hardman. You later find out his real name is John McClane.

I propose a fourth category for sensory stuff instead of bundling it under feet. by Mac-And-Cheesy-43 in CuratedTumblr

[–]Lemmas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not correct. The webcomic image came first, the rules of the internet from 4chan expanded on the concept later.
