This is really definitely not endorsed but y'know if you watch the Starship Troopers movie as an adult (or even, like, a minimally culturally literate teenager) and come out thinking the Federation was the good guys and the narrative endorsed their actions then I deeply and intensely feel that, for the sake of the wider culture, it is not worth it to make art for you.

The specter of 'dumb fratbro who watches fight club and tries to start project mayhem for real' is a cancer on artistic expression, and the only way forward is to shrug and collectively not give a shit.

one way to instantly make an unfunny post is to imply the people posting about our weird kinks on here never get laid irl

PROPAGANDA

Agatha Heterodyne

The main character mad scientist in a comic full of them

She's the titular Girl Genius, which is a good start. In the comic, mad science is genetic and called the Spark; she's the latest in a long line of of powerful, mostly evil Sparks who terrorized Europa for centuries, until her father and uncle became heroes instead. She's a bit in between the two extremes. Some of her greatest hits include: building a small army of self-replicating robots, briefly killing one of her romantic interests in order to cure him of a terminal illness (he thought it was a brilliant idea), repeating the procedure on herself, nearly blowing up after glimpsing the fabric of the universe, repairing the sentient castle at the heart of her town, frequently having to shuffle around brains that end up in the wrong body (they are usually happier afterwards), building a giant robot in order to ask the Godqueen of England to dance, and making coffee. At this time in the comic, she recently rescued her town from being frozen in time and is working to kill a horror from another dimension.

Caesar Clown:

Pathetic ass man that gaslights everyone around him in order to use them as experimental guinea pigs as he makes chemical weapons of mass destruction after he blew up an island to escape being locked up. The only thing he has somewhat affection for is his pet that he made from poisonous gas and unleashed it against everyone on an island. Also, he has a weird ass laugh that goes like this “shirorororo”.

He worked with Dr. Vegapunk! When they broke up, he moved into one of Vegapunk's old labs and continued working on weapons of mass destruction to sell on the black market, and kidnapped children the government didn't care about to experiment on them.

He is a master chemist, part of which comes from being a gas-man. He works seemingly only on evil projects and is very selfish. Caesar Clown has no problem abducting and gaslighting children into being test subjects for his concoctions, not caring what happens to them. He is jealous of the greatest scientist in the world, his former boss, and has done a lot of harm in his attempts to become the greatest himself. He is part of an Evil Scientist alliance. He is the manufacturer of an artificial substance that is key in a mutation-making fruit sold on the black market and discarded as the only food available to some poor communities. Many characters in One Piece have real life inspirations, Caesar’s seem to include Julius Caesar, two pirates, Pierrot dolls, and a particular 1940s German experiment-driven man.

This guy took children from their families and altered their DNA to make an army of giants out of them. He made them addicted to a candy so they wouldn't escape from the lab. He created a giant axolotl made out compressed poisonous gas. He also made atificial Devil Fruits but a large amount of them were failures, making the ones who eat them never being able to stop smiling and laughing.

fnaf is such, a fascinating cultural object.

[cadyrocks]

A dark comedy about a cult leader who suddenly comes to his senses, realises that running a cult actually fucking sucks, tries to quit several times but the followers are too clingy, until he realises that the only way to get rid of them is to fake his own death in the most credible, believable, tangible way possible, in a way where absolutely none of them could deny that they really saw their leader straight-up die right in front of their eyes. Wouldn't even cross their minds to doubt that the corpse isn't the real deal. Their idea that their precious leader could never die (he said so once, while on cocaine) is shattered, their whole world is shattered.

So the former cult leader weasels out of it and starts a brand new, completely normal life somewhere else, happily pretending that absolutely none of that ever happened.

And then the followers find him again.

Standard Worldbuilding Dilemmas

ai does not belong in creative spaces. period.

[cadyrocks]

Forget about torturing your blorbos, putting them through the wringer. I'm putting my blorbo in perfectly ordinary, pleasant situations. Their tortured personality will cause them anguish anyway, making an absolutely mundane scene into the most dramatic, agony filled affair as though the world is ending and it's all their fault
