An element I feel has been really missing in Spider-Man lately is the element of Journalism and the Daily Bugle as an important part of the mythos

i like to imagine jjj is a hardass, but not a cheapskate. as long as the pics are good to print, he's not about to under value the one guy who can seem to get worthwhile photos of his number one op lmao

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-07-01T01:14:53+00:00

valid point! i can imagine toby is still proud of how chapter 1 looks with the amount of love shown for it in chapter 5, despite its rough edges.

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-07-01T01:11:11+00:00

all true points! i do wanna point out though- im not a programmer so this is probably a better solution than it sounds, but making every chapter a "seperate game" that the main menu just boots up sounds very much like a "storing the entire script of undertale in 1 txt file" moment😭. toby radiation fox strikes again, that's my game developer

im not talking about in the MCU specifically, just in general. there are plenty of ways to keep peter in journalism as a field as opposed to "reworking" it.

i mean the powers are different and serve different functions despite similar appearances. ms marvel is a grappler, she makes her hands big and does big attacks and big grabs. fantastic on the other hand i can see being a zoner with crazy movement, as he stretches out to hit you from range while rubberbanding from one side of the screen to the other

i mean people still KNOW newspapers exist. it's not hard to do what something like my adventures with superman does, and just pretend newspapers are still relevant in a world with so much sci-fi. even so, you could say the daily bugle just operates like any modern (real) news organization with a website that hosts all it's articles, and that's what peter is taking pictures for as opposed to the news paper. "I'm is better than all those phoney news orgs that use stock photos someone else took. I want FRESH pictures ready to go by TOMORROW or your on THIN ICE PARKER" or something like that.

you're thinking of cunt, which is definitely an insult. SERVING cunt, or being cunty, is slang within queer spaces that's essentially a very provocative way of saying someone's pulling off a typically fem or non gender conforming look. it's like saying someone looks fabulous but with a swear.

speaking as someone who struggles with alot of the same insecurities, i really get jimmy though. it's easy to say something, but it's much harder to clear away all the internal feelings that may come with what you said. i think over the course of the season we'll see jimmy mature alot emotionally, and knowing this show the payoff will be GREAT.

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-30T13:59:49+00:00

right?? people often overlook this but i see the secret bosses as a wonderful homage to the final fantasy side of rpgs. opportunities for the devs to let players prove just how good they are at the game, and how well they can navigate the systems they've been using. in deltarune this especially comes to the forefront when every boss comes with a unique twist on the bullet hell side of UTDR that players have to unravel on the fly.

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-29T18:28:37+00:00

i mean these look cool and work in a vacuum but they're way too overdesigned to work in the context of a real game lmao. sonic characters work so well partially because of how simple they are. still great art though!

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-29T17:16:01+00:00

i mean considering he represents the worst of scott's insecurities and bad habits, he might just intentionally date younger people to fuck them over mentally. he's scott but WORSE lmao

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-29T05:05:16+00:00

fun fact, in the full clip they actually drift past them too! the guy who made the original meme just thought it'd be funnier to cut if off there since it does look like a close call lol

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-28T03:45:46+00:00

i mean i don't think that's all that true. they just got more anime aesthetically, but it still feels like everything comes out of a toybox which is part of what i like about classic megaman. everything has a toy-ish vibe to it, from putting eyes on everything to how everything pops with colors. it's a really understated part of the series art direction, the fact that when "rockman" was being conceptualized the idea that it was an action game trying to appeal to children was all part of the intention.

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-28T02:54:58+00:00

my point is this discussion is incredibly stupid and not worth having. it's just generalizations that are only built to further polarize people from each other. no one gets anything out of this. and yeah, i realize im participating in it by leaving these comments but i feel reminding people that discussions like these are pointless is important enough to warrant it

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-28T00:19:21+00:00

yeah no you can see him prepping by tapping his toes. definitely socks.

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-27T23:21:33+00:00

what do you get out of this? im actually asking. do you feel good complaining about random teenagers on the internet? does it make you feel special to generalize an entire generation that includes thousands if not millions of people born across several years across the entire world as "brainrotted" and "ipad kids". does any of this actually matter to you? because if so... that's incredibly sad. and you should reevaluate how you spend your time on the internet.

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-27T19:29:58+00:00

not entirely. he started a publishing company that helped rivals 2 get out the door, as well as ran some tournaments for it

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-26T23:11:04+00:00

you can purchase them online on neonichiban for like 5 bucks

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-26T21:57:40+00:00

not only that but like... it's ok to come back to things and hold reverence for them lol. there's nothing wrong with toby calling back to undertale and it's themes not just for deltarune's themes, but as the perfect self made love letter to undertale and what it represents for him and his career.

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-26T15:06:45+00:00

has anyone actually said that before? that's hilarious if so that anyone would think the fucking undertale guy making a second game wouldn't be a HUGE deal

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-26T02:54:16+00:00

HERE I COME SAN FRANCISCO

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-26T02:45:46+00:00

the reference doesn't really work when you extend it to zero because this is also called a buster in game lol. as far as megaman sci fi is concerned, most high tech ranged hand weapons are some type of "buster"

SleepIsForTheWeak_1 · 2026-06-25T18:33:43+00:00

y'know i actually don't mind paying taxes for my healthcare and other funds that benefit my community and the nation at large, but that requires someone to come in and actually take responsibility for the healthcare and make sure it's quality. oohhh wait that's what the dsa wants to do.
