DC x DP prompt but it's just Danny acting like an ectoplasmic Venom with [insert DC character here]

Danny, after spotting a powerful hero having trouble: Oh no! I should help!

Jason "I've-Had-Too-Much-Of-This-Shit-Already" Todd: what the fuck why am I glowing

Danny, covering this helmeted fruit loop who was trying to fight tEN PEOPLE AT ONCE ARE YOU INSANE-: hi :D We're friends now :D

Jason: internal screaming

I like to think that Cave Johnson and Caroline were so focused on Aperture Science that they were almost completely checked out of popular culture and had no clue what was trending at any given moment. Like, they could not tell you who was president past Kennedy. They didn't even learn about his assassination until 1965.

Maybe Caroline hyperfixated on a nostalgic piece of media like The Wizard of Oz and made that her entire personality outside of work. She had a whole shelf in her apartment dedicated to Oz memorabilia.

Cave Johnson had a private theater in his home for him to play Humphrey Bogart movies on constant repeat and only Humphrey Bogart. Maybe some Spaghetti Westerns, but always the same 15 movies over and over again.

Well, I'm sorry, but isn't there something in your Bible about reaping what you sow?

Remembering Shane MacGowan 1957-2023

Irish singer Shane MacGowan has died at 65. He co-founded The Pogues in 1982. After getting kicked out in 1991, he re-joined in 2001 and was with them until their end in 2014. He also had Shane MacGowan and The Popes, as well as solo work and collaborations with Nick Cave, Sinead O'Connor, and Dropkick Murphys.

The Pogues and Kristy MacColl's 1987 song "Fairytale in New York" is a holiday song I listen to every year as it's on multiple compilation albums. It was even featured in last year's Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special. I named The Pogues one of my Honorable Mentions for Best Irish Rockers of All-Time.

The link above is a list from Rolling Stone of his 15 essential songs with embedded videos.
