I find it really wonderful and comforting that Mob Psycho 100 is so inherently optimistic, even though its main message, “you are not special” sounds so mean at face-value. Being special means that something matters more than something else of the same category. Being special at baking? Great! Being special at math? Super! Being special at bodybuilding? Neat! Having so many people have such unique special abilities is what makes the world work. But having a special ability doesn’t mean that someone who doesn't match your special ability matters less than you. You can't be special for simply existing, because that would mean someone else isn't. You aren't special because you inherently matter.
lately ive been addicted to these tiktoks where people put on an alien filter and just browse google maps and mark off countries and all the comments are people with pfps of little green aliens saying like "YES BOSS" "ALL CLEAR" "UNDERSTOOD BOSS"
people talking about how hard it is to not watch disney/marvel movies in 2024 live in different worlds than me. it's like if your favorite food ever was banquet microwave pot pies
