And with that, first place prize for the Replica Holiday Special Cover Contest is complete! Thank you again @abbeyofcyn for your patience and your amazing, winning cover!
Cyn's request was simply to have Donnie from their Krang Infection AU interacting with Replica Donnie. It was supposed to just be a colored piece but I got the idea of Rep!Donnie giving teen Donnie some pointers and decided to do a short comic instead. This was so fun to make, so thank you for the inspiration and your wonderful version of Donnie! He's one of my all time favorites.
If you haven't read it I highly recommend checking out abbeyofcyn's Krang Infection AU as well as it's continuation. It's such a wonderful story!
This is not the first time this has happened either:
[Jul 16 2024] Berlin police is arresting children at pro-Palestinian demonstrations, in what activists say is a shocking escalation of already widespread police violence against pro-Palestinian voices.
The most recent confirmed arrest of children involved the early June detention of a 7-year-old boy for allegedly hitting an officer’s helmet with his flag. In a witness statement shown to The New Arab (TNA), the boy's father said he had been carrying his son on his shoulders at a march when they suddenly found themselves surrounded by officers who lashed out at the crowd and then took the pair away to a police van.
The police confirmed via email that a 7-year-old was arrested on suspicion of "assaulting" a police officer at the same protest in Berlin. Police told TNA that six children under the age of 16 were detained on June 8.
In a video posted on social media, the child can be seen screaming in a state of extreme distress while he and his father are surrounded and grabbed by 11 officers in riot gear.
The father says the child now experiences anxiety and needs psychological treatment because of the incident.
In another incident on the same day, a 13-year-old was handcuffed and dragged away by officers using a controversial "pain grip" after making a rude hand gesture to a police officer. Berlin police have confirmed that a 13-year-old was detained "on suspicion of insult," which is a criminal offence under German law.
A few weeks earlier, on May 29, an incident was reported where two adolescents were punched in the face several times by police officers at a house entrance in Sonnenallee street in Berlin. This incident of police violence was condemned by Amnesty International Germany, and urged an investigation into allegations of unlawful police actions.
Due to a popular request, the Wayne kids decide to shoot a ghost hunting video in the manor and Jason stands in the corner of the frame while the others ignore him just to fuck with the audience
my jewish fandom ass wants to write an essay about how Stan Pines is the perfect deconstruction of antisemitic caricature characters–initially we think he’s this tricky, stingy, money-obsessed character, and that’s played for laughs, but then later it’s revealed that he was forced into that lifestyle and mindset out of a desperate need to save his family. (Echoing the experience of a lot of Jewish people who were historically forced into professions like moneylending as the only way they could make a living, provide for their families, and escape destitute poverty. Which then was weaponized against them in the creation of viscous antisemitic stereotypes and tropes.)
I want to write that essay, but I feel like a lot of people on this website would willfully misunderstand me
Wrapping his arms around the other, Splinter pulled him further into the hug. “I love you so much, my Baby Blue,” was all he could manage to say, holding onto the other tightly. They held each other in the hug, Leo’s body shaking with his quiet sobs, while Splinter gripped him securely. Leo couldn’t tell how long they were like that, sitting on the floor of the crumbling hotel lobby, and holding onto each other the way only a father and son could. It could have been a few seconds, or several hours, but it still didn’t feel like enough time.
“I’m sorry…we are running out of time, Leonardo.”
