"It's a dog!"

"Yeah, he's not even a very good one. But he's out there alone, and probably scared."

Fair. Tone can be confusing online.

As corporate media bows to Trump, public broadcasting has never been more important to our democracy. If radio stations and TV affiliates close, millions will lose access to critical news and education programs. It's up to us now to support our local public broadcasting stations. Trump is trying to control not just what we do, but what we know. Be warned. [Cartoon by Joe Wos]

I knew we were back when Superman was joking with the robots after getting the snot kicked out of him.

Everyday… I wish in my soul — that I had had parents like the Kents. And I try to be as close as I possibly can come to it for my stepkids.

It's so important to me that Jonathan is so soft in the Superman movie. Jonathan is there asking Lois with worried eyes if their boy is going to be okay. Jonathan is there tearily telling Clark he's proud of him. Jonathan is there recognizing how upset Clark is and coaxing him to talk about it. Jonathan loudly loves his son. There is no guessing game, no question, no room for uncertainty.

And Clark reflects that every day as Superman.

clark and lois bickering at work only for it to be revealed that they’ve been dating for 3 months and were just messing around to keep their relationship a secret from their coworkers was soooo sexy. literally need that

When Superman bursts into Lex's office and he's like "we finally meet" what???? You hate him so much you've orchestrated a WAR and you stalk the people who comp him FALAFEL and you stole his DNA TO CLONE HIM but you've never actually met??? You're just in a parasocial relationship. With Superman????

The way Superman depicted complicit civilians is gonna stick with me.

Because usually when you have your villain, usually the civilians working for them are gonna be largely faceless or cowed. And then when the hero crashes the scene, only the armed goons are taken out while said civilians flee to remove any questions.

In here though, you can tell they all enjoy working for Luthor. The technicians in his hq have fun plugging in directions to Ultraman. And those in the base camp wear tropical shirts while listening to music and playing games on their downtime. Nobody is working with rigid confirmity nor are there moral reservations (the only objection shown was when his obsession almost got them killed).

So when Mr. Terrific arrived on the scene, it is actually fitting that he wiped out the workers alongside the armed goons.

Also the way Superman's fellow prisoners not only attempted to snitch on him but actually tried to out snitch each other deserves a whole other analysis.
