How Has The Pandemic Affected Those In The DC Universe?

The secret location of the Bat-Cave is now known by up to as many as 17 Uber-Eats drivers.

Wonder Woman now using her lasso of truth to determine whether those around her have truly had their vaccinations.

The Joker is considering replacing his infamous Joker Toxin with several of the COVID variants.

Superman telling all of his close friends that Kryptonite exposure is a “walk in the friggin’ park” compared to COVID.

Shazam spending all of his time in Billy Batson form, since kids have less of a chance of having a bad reaction to the virus.

Lex Luthor purchased FOX News and ramped up the bullshit to a 10.

The Flash making up for his wife’s lost wages by doing GrubHub deliveries.

Green Lantern left Earth, preferring to take his chances on WarPlanet X9 in the Hellscape dimension.

Hoping for free health-care, Harley Quinn turned herself back over to Arkham Asylum.

[merrysithmas]

ever since i changed my avatar to sheith i got blocked by some of the voltron blogs i visited. but i'm like YOUR LOSS, sheith is endgame muhahhahha i've got no ragrets xD

they are the Truth, the Light, and the Way

like???? listen:

keith?? gay space spy. space stealth hybrid hero. conduit between worlds. child of the universe. you fight lika g a l r a soldier. part of a legacy of warriors going back thousands of years to intercept fascist zarkon. desert warplanet gal, with wine that tastes so sour you could gag, rain watching parties, and salt stone buildings, rare salt to replenish the electrolytes lost in the beating sun. a symbol of nobility and denied to the underclass and rebels. he noshes on french fries, raised on everything theyd crucify him for. space prince hidden away in the blue blankets of earth. he growls with teeth a little too sharp, glares with eyes a little too clear. people a little too wary of the boy with scraped knuckles and sharp nails and unkempt hair. dried blood and furrowed brows.

to him, love comes to death. it always has. his mother, his father. on gal a symbol of devotion is to allow your lover to place the point of their blade at your heart. it is the ceremony of marriage and a gesture of trust. when he meets shiro again, too many eons of waiting, he presses his metallic hand to his ribs, on instinct. he knows nothing of the custom. but he clutches it close. to love is to embrace death. because to love is to devote one’s life.

shiro???? gay space age of exploration scientist. intrepid explorer. here for the expansion of knowledge and jubilant expanse of the galaxy. heart of wonder. disowned from his rich family for his passion. joined garrison against their wishes and went on to become paragon officer. garrison media prop and ptsd-laden hero, takes no shits anymore. space and justice motherfuckers, but s o f t l y. who are you, guardian spirit of the sky. mind of the black lion, soul of a champion. murderer, rebel, officer, friend. that is what his father said: it is f o r b i d d e n, takashi. forbidden is a world that has made a home inside of him. forbidden dreams, forbidden knowledge, forbidden space, forbidden love. this is something he told himself, brows smoothing over, gravity lifting his burdens, allowing childlike moments of happiness in the dusky lavender sands of kerberos. he would trace the name of the one he loved there, because the history books would never mention the sharp teeth and the furious temper.

the words of his father ring in his ears like distant bells, dying at the edge of hearing: it is f o r b b i d e n, takashi. this foolish dream of yours. this passion of yours will kill you, and who then will be left? this singular selfishness. this obsessive independence. leave and you are dead to me. where has my son gone? you are dead to me even now.

those are the words he remembers now that he has been prisoner of war. now that he has died a hundred deaths. now the words lack color, lack consequence. what is one more death in a universe of deaths? fear like this can be conquered. this is how a warrior is born, gently, in the mind, like a river eating away stone. and rapidly, with bare hands in an arena. this is how a balance is formed, a wisdom. a leader.

see because that was keith – keith taught him how to strangle a throat, to make your opponent into your weapon. it was keith meeting his eyes in fury, heat radiating off his body in rage, fighting with knees and knuckles and fluidity and veins pulsing in his neck as shiro is suddenly pinned, losing his breath. there are no apologies there, in keith’s deeply crunched brows and bared teeth. no shame for selfishness and independence. all of the sudden, he is a star in the black sky. and shiro finally opens his eyes. sees his light. it stuns him, to recognize this forbidden thing so freely inhabiting another.

the thief, keith, gives it so much in fighting you think hed be hot to the touch. but he is cold, and when shiro stares up at him from his back, flipped to the ground, without ever having met him before, he says out loud: you’re beautiful.

keith’s gaze had shattered at the edges following the words, arm pressed into shiro’s throat, knee in his forearm. confusion flickering there. shiro, with several years at the garrison already, could have methodically removed him in theory. but in actuality, the feral boy, living on the outskirts of the desert, had transfixed him. your form, he says but doesn’t correct, it’s beautiful. are you trained? who trained you? he isn’t at the garrison, shiro would have known, he has heard belittling talk about some of the locals… vagrant thieves, dirty and untrustworthy.

shut up, keith growls, mind barrelling through this flattery as nothing more than a tactic. i am leaving here with everything and you’re not going to tell anyone. or i’ll— (he even stammers to say it, staring into shiro’s eyes, cadet uniform, garrison boy, prepackaged hero, but with strange kind eyes…) — i’ll k i l l you.

he’s gone as soon as he was there, and shiro sits up on his elbows, dusty. he can hear the sound of a motorbike and then it is gone. his heart is beating fast, but not from fear. the universe leaves him there for a long moment.

keith is swallowing a lump in his throat, but it isn’t from worry. he has a week’s worth of stolen food zipped into his jacket, wind searing by his temples like a whip. when he hears the rattling knock on the shack door three days later, he already knows who it is. and for once in his life he is afraid. peeking out of the space between the wooden boards he sees shiro, framed by the sky. the universe leaves him there for a long moment too, letting him decide whether to answer.

sheith????? gay space romance odyssey.

antis who?????????

Episode 54: World Science Festival 2019, Activision & The Wandering Earth

Welcome back for another episode of the ongoing celebration of being a Nerd, the weather in Queensland is starting to cool off a little. It takes an extra couple of minutes to cook your feet on the concrete now. We have another wonderful episode full of fantastic material for everyone, and believe me when I say everyone. Before we go further, we wish to have a moment to farewell the Mars Opportunity Rover, the gutsy little robot that could, and did for 15 years, so long and see you soon. First up Buck is excited to tell us about the World Science Festival happening this year in Queensland. There are events all around the place ranging from Chinchilla (the dinosaur capital of Australia) to the northern coast in Townsville and Gladstone not just in Brisbane. Buck is like a kid in a candy shop trying to work out which events he wants to attend. Check it out there are so many things to do and see it is totally amazing. There are even films being shown at GOMA (The Gallery of Modern Art) that you can look forward to. The Professor has news about the jobs cut at Activision and the ramifications of it. Also a rumour about job offers circulating for the recently unemployed. This is another major studio/publisher that is facing trouble with declines in sales, share price and general profitability. Wonder when they will start to listen to the customers and make games fun again. Also just bring back games with great storylines, not everyone wants to play a battle royale. DJ has found an amazing movie for us to all go and watch, titled Wandering Earth. It is a Sci-Fi from China on a big budget and is looking well worth watching. We will let you know what we think, but remember we encourage you to make your own decisions not just be sheeple and follow mindlessly what some cretin says. We also have the games being played and the lists of shout outs, remembrances, birthdays, events and general banter. Also we are sad to announce that no one was interested in the date with the DJ.
