#How and why?

I cannot get this out of my head

So this is from X-factor v4 issue 5 and I can't stop thinking about this kid. This is the only appearence he has as far as i know and his powers are that he gets different abilities based on the music he listens to. Any. Music.

First off how does it differentiate? Like does he get flight from pop, super strength from country, pyrokinesis from heavy metal?

That was my first thought. My second was, poor legion.

Imagine having to suffer through DID on a scale of thousands with each having thei own power and then there's just this kid who can switch the playlist on his phone and get the same result. Like man.

He's also just a great example of the fact that not every powerfull mutant is relevnt to the story or drafted. He just has an insane power and thats it.

Thanks for reading this rant, have a choclate bar.

After two days of eating barely anything, I just had a calzone. Let’s hope the anxiety doesn’t forcibly eject it from whence it came

can’t believe tiktok is actually getting banned, twitter is infested with bots and brainworm-infested musk bootlickers, facebook is king of QAnon, instagram caught the plague from facebook and is dying a slow death in real time… and as the dust settles… only Miss Tumblr is left standing… failing upwards once again

I hate how people will look at popular indie artists who had one or two songs go viral on TikTok and start making fun of anybody who listens to them. "Oh you listen to Lemon Demon, Will Wood, Jack Stauber, Glass Animals, and Mother Mother? Tsk, don't you know that is stupid TikTok neurodivergent white transmasc preteen music? It's so mid and bad you should listen to real music–" you are a pit of misery

i tend not to take museum photos of things unless i think i can take a good one, and this was in a glass case so it had a lot of glare, but the sargent exhibit at the met has the only know photograph of madame x before he repainted the shoulder strap and seeing that for the first time in my life made me feel like my body was made of static

“sotr is mid because you already know how it ends” shut the fuck up, the point of the book is that despite knowing how it ends you would have never known what actually went down because that’s the point of propaganda, the whole book is about the power of propaganda

You don't have to like weed but I find people who are vehemently anti-weed but claim to be left leaning infuriating. If you go into a rage because you smelled someone smoking pot, how the fuck do you expect to form community with people addicted to meth? It's easier to say you hate smokers than to say you hate all drug users in leftist spaces because one makes you sound a bit like a square while the other is the writing on the wall. You aren't anti-weed, you're anti-drug user and anyone who uses substances is not safe around you.

EDIT: Glad to see this post take off. Ironically I've not been able to smoke for almost 4 months because of an injury that landed me in a nursing home. Please help me keep the apartment I am trying to get well enough to move back to.

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.
