"Hey did you know Lex Luthor baby trapped Superman? Did you know they have a biological child? Did you know-" SHUT UPPP!!! WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT MY BOY KON??? Did YOU know that the original- the ORIGINAL story was that when Superman ☠️ DIED ☠️ a research lab called CADMUS stole his BODY to clone their OWN Superman but because he's invulnerable they couldn't get a 🧬 DNA SAMPLE 🧬 so they used genes from the lab's research director PAUL WESTFIELD as a base, then modified his sample genome so the clone would LOOK LIKE Superman and gave it the appearance of having his powers by giving him TACTILE TELEKINESIS based on Superman's invulnerability field (because it was outside the body they could scan and replicate it), which would allow him to telekinetically affect ANYTHING he was 🫳TOUCHING 🫳 This gave him the ability to FLY, super strength and invulnerability on top of other applications of his powers (such as telekinetically dismantling a bomb he was touching). He was meant to be developed into adulthood but was freed by the CLONE SONS of the CADMUS scientists BEFORE he fully developed, meaning he popped out at roughly 15 YEARS OLD and got called SUPERBOY. Lex didn't even KNOW HE EXISTED until he debuted on TV and he was MAD he didn't have in on the cloning shit. That's CANON if you actually 📖 READ 📖 the Death of Superman, but GEOFF JOHNS must have been reading with his EYES CLOSED because he wrote in a theory that Kon was actually "the clone of Lex Luthor and Superman" that was published and 🚫 DISMISSED 🚫 in the Superboy letters column because it was RIDICULOUS but then he got employed at DC and ten- TEN YEARS later in literally his FIRST issue writing Kon he made his NO MEDIA LITERACY. FAN THEORY. canon and used THAT for shitty eugenics "but that means Kon has 👹 EVIL GENES 👹 from Lex Luthor what if that means he'll turn evil???" CHEAP ANGST STORYLINES and took away his COOL PUNK FIT and made him look like an ARMY BRAT LOSER.

Shitty things about being isekaied #34; every time I use the restroom I automatically reach for my phone I left in my jacket pocket back on earth, and my hand goes exactly where I keep my knives on my belt, so I always walk out of the john with a fresh hand wound

in order to unlearn racism u have to be willing to accept that u are racist. it’s not a bad thing to want to change for the better. it’s not a bad thing to say hey, the way i’ve been acting is racist and i don’t want to be racist anymore. when people of color are telling u ways in which u have been racist, it’s actually not cool to brush it off and say, well i didn’t mean it that way.. u actually have to make an effort to stop doing those things if u want to be able to actually say ur anti-racist. u can’t just say ur not racist because u don’t wanna be seen as racist. that’s not how unlearning racism works.

PHYSICAL CHALLENGE! 🫟

so my dad's car insurance called me today and was like hey we're trying to get a hold of this dude and found your name and thought y'all might be related (i have an incredibly uncommon surname). so I was like yeah that's my dad. can you tell me what he did this time

and i could tell she wasn't supposed to tell me, but heard the absolute exasperation in my voice and just knew i was his child. she described that there was "a fender bender, and an altercation, in a restaurant parking lot" and that his lawyer was trying to get a hold of him to tell him his court summons had been waived

my parents own a restaurant so I figured it was their parking lot but upon asking my mom i have learned

it was a burger king parking lot. he physically fought a guy in a rural pennsylvania burger king parking lot. love and light ☀️
