Leo Kasper as a symbol of evil

So I was looking into Pure Evil Wiki for shits and giggles, and apparently, Leo is within the "Symbolic" category too. And I'd say it really suits him.

I'd even go as far as to say that Leo is both The Project's biggest success and greatest failure at the same time. When he said "you fuckers created me" to Dr Whyte, he meant that.

Not only did Project scientists conduct all those horrificially painful surgeries on him according to the Pravitas file, but the staff made other patients single him out and ostracize him.

All of that just to see if it'd make him violent, which it did. While it did come back to bite them years later, that still doesn't change the fact that they were proven right in the end.

Despite Leo claiming to stand against The Project, his true goal is to break Daniel down and then mold him for his personal gain. Just like The Project did to him.

Leo killed Daniel's wife to erase as much about Daniel's past as possible, and to make sure Daniel would have nothing to come back to. And by doing that, he traumatized Daniel's kids and destroyed the Lamb family forever. Not to mention, he straight up massacred people at that one TV studio for no fucking reason! He is effectively inflicting the same exact cruelty and continuing the cycle of evil.

Ultimately, Leo was indeed the biggest monster The Project created, no matter how hard he tried to prove them wrong.

Leo Kasper really is the true manisfestation of The Pickman Project's cruelty, whether he wanted to be or not.

July 19th, 1982 - Queen Story!

Queen released 'Calling All Girls', their first the A-side release composed by Roger Taylor, bw 'Put Out The Fire' in USA (taken 'Hot Space' album)

- 'Calling All Girls' written by Roger Taylor

Interviewer: How did you get the thick rhythm sound in 'Calling All Girls'?

Brian May: "That's a combination of acoustic and electric guitar. I think Roger did the feed-back tracks near the end of the break. You never know where things come from. Roger played a lot of guitar. He's always bursting to play guitar."

- Brian May

NAGPRA doesn't stop museums from digging in their heels over repatriation. Denver Art Museum has refused for years to return art and important cultural objects to the Tlingit and Haida clans to whom they rightfully belong.

“We’re not in the business of just giving away our collections,” [John Lukavic, DAM Native Arts collection curator] said. “Nobody is.” (Denver Post, April 8 2024.)

Applying pressure to these institutions is ABSOLUTELY necessary, because they have no reason to act with grace or humility, and Native nations are forced to work within the laws and framework of the US federal government, NOT their own sovereign laws. The same laws that were broken in order to steal these objects during colonization.

Went to the Aboriginal artifact exhibit in Chicago. And it’s interesting. How many blankets and masks and totem poles say ‘unknown source’, because every five seconds my mom would stop and point to something and say. “Pauline’s grandmother made that,” or, “That belongs to Mike’s family, I should call him” because. It’s all stolen

When I was early on in my transition I got in a Lyft, and the driver was this big country guy. I was a little nervous so I just sat quietly in the back.

After a moment he changed the music on his phone to what sounded like a Hatsune Miku song. Curiosity got the better of me, so I finally spoke up and said “is this Hatsune Miku?”

And he said “Yep. You looked uncomfortable, and I know Transgender women like Hatsune Miku, so I thought it might help.”

I think about that interaction a lot.

i’ve started babysitting for a VERY christian family which is great because they pay me a lot of money but as someone who was raised almost completely agnostic it’s kind of insane. the 2 year old keeps asking me to read her stories from the bible. (why are we reading david and goliath to a 2 year old????) the 5 year old told me today that he was going to bring his legos to heaven with him. he also has repeatedly told me that the lego spaceships he builds are stronger than jesus. (not sure what to say to that. do i deny it??? are things allowed to be stronger than jesus??) had to stop myself mid sentence today because i almost told them im not going to heaven which would DEFINITELY have caused several meltdowns. they’re also both completely fascinated by my nose ring

Bruce truly hates magic with every pump and beat of his heart.

What kinda curse is Slang, anyway?

“This is the best day of my life.”

“Bro really thought he ate with that.” Bruce physically feels a full body shiver, charged with nausea and cringe. “This is level 10 cringe. Can’t have shit in Gotham.”

Dick is his earth bound angel, but he laughs like a demon at him, holding onto Jason for support, pledging his eternal loyalty to Zatana and her pettiness.

—

“Hey, old bat, hook me up with an adrenaline shot.”

What he wants to say is Jay, do not try and fight with 6 bullets in your stomach.

What comes out instead, through Bruce’s grit teeth and intense, fierce glaring, “Not you trying to go back to your corpse era. See how I only took 2 shots? Very demure. Very mindful.”

Jason passes out from blood loss, but mostly laughter.

—

“Chat, is this real?”

Stephanie barely bites back a full belly cackle. “I think he just asked us if we copied.”

“I wish I was Jason, 15.”

—

“This is not a slay environment. Killing is flop behavior.” He keeps his eyes shut and buries his face in his hands. Trying to convince Damian not to stab someone doesn’t seem to work.

Damian gives him a pat like he’s a pitiful cat. “I’ll only stab the non lethal areas.”

“God, I wish that were me.”
