Random Realization and thought...
So, I've been rewatching the X-Men 97 series(felt like it😆), and I realized a few things now that I'm older...
Wolverine is awesome! - he's got lots of issues to work through but he cares for the X-Men, and not just himself. (Several episodes can attest to that. And here's to hoping they won't change that when the series revival comes🥂)
Cyclops and Jean are goals - come on! Are y'all gonna dispute that? And I honestly cannot imagine Emma being the side-chic, to that power couple (y'all can explain to me how that happened 😅)
By Season 2, there is a slight change in art style, but the stories are just as awesome
Jubilee is definitely a kid with a big heart - girl wants to be included, do some action, fix broken relationships... I can go on🥹
Gambit and Rogue are also one of the best pairings - she loves him but hates him, he loves her, and that's why he riles her up on purpose, and enjoys it like the little shit he is. Why didn't I notice that when I was younger?!😅 (And she takes his name in an episode in Season 5 when undercover to protect a young mutant in a small town🫶)
Beast deserves to be with his family, and Carly😭😭😭😭😭 'nough said...
And other Marvel characters really do make cameos in this series
X-Women are badass😍 - some of my fave superheroines growing up
But what is with them somehow getting manipulated by red flags🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 - I ain't kidding! Let me list:
Jean = Jason Wyngarde (I get that he manipulated Jean's mind to get to Phoenix, point is dude "married" Jean and used basically mind control on her)
Rogue = Cody (he was shit, and the definition of young love)
Storm = Arkon (right now, he's definitely a red flag when he first meets Storm. And his overly dramatic way of speaking makes me go🤢)
I need to see Storm meet T'Challa and rule Wakanda, even for a few episodes 🥺- I've wanted to know since I found out she married and divorced our King, plus being queen suits Storm
Well, I've nerdily ranted, and I feel much better 😁 and as usual happy to discuss more and basically nerd/geek hangout with y'all. I may have more, when I do, I might make another post. Let me know if I should make this a recurring thing😊
I honestly can't be the only one who adores X-Men 97 OG, right?😃

I need to need to geek out over Janelle Monáe in Glass Onion
Big spoiler ahead… YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
I can not get over Janelle Monáes performance in this movie. Holy shit she was good. I mean when we see her arrive in Greece (her second appearance on screen) both my sister and I said that she looked different from the first appearance. We quickly came to the conclusion that the hair was off (she must have cut it) and only on the rewatch did I realise that we don’t see her hair because she’s wearing a towel. (And it’s kinda funny that we were right, she did cut her hair, but obviously that’s just luck in the guess)
The point I’m making isn’t that I saw the big twin reveal from the beginning because I certainly did not! No what I’m saying is that Janelle did such an amazing job with her character that my subconscious realised that she was suppose to be two different people (or one person pretending to be so one els) from just two scenes and before she’s even said ONE WORD.
I mean that is just amazing. And she does it so subtlety that you don’t even realise she’s doing it because your not suppose to until much later and then it becomes obvious and you wonder how you didn’t see it… but you did. That first scene where she’s still Helen and then the next she’s Andi and there’s just something a little bit off.
And then I rewatch it and I just geek out even more because Blanc even says it in the restaurant scene “just remember, Rich Bitch voice, Andi posture” and that’s what my brain picked up but I didn’t on the first watch. That little difference in posture, in facial expression, and it returns when the Helen story is revealed. Helenes shoulders are more relaxed, her face is more open, eyes are bigger. Andi always have lowered eyelids, like she’s analysing everything and seeing through you, but Helens eyes are more open more honest. Yes the two characters talk different but what really gets me all exited is that I could turn off the sound and Janelle Monáe would still be able to tell me which character she’s playing in the way she subtly plays them different. Like that is amazing and I just love her. She did such a good job! I could watch this movie just for her alone.
All the other actors did an amazing job as well. I’m not trying to say they didn’t, but Janelle stole the show for me. She is a a master and we do not deserve her.

MINI GEEK OUT
ok so one of my ocs is an assassin with one of her main weapons being her bow. now no one knows that the top hitman is this 19 year old girl other than her boss and her handler so she has a code name: lokheira.
Weird name right? It based on the word iokheaira from Homer’s works describing the goddess, Artemis. Iokheaira was like another way of describing her (or is the name of her bow sources vary). What’s really cool about this is that it means to shower with arrows (or some variation of that translation). The full name is ἰοχέαιρα iokheaira
Now why do I use this? This oc is literally a young girl who wants to prove herself in the world of men. She does this with her sharp arrows and even sharper wit. The best way to subtly mention that is by honoring the myths of another badass female archers. Also how many people would recognize that name from memory? Let alone a variation of it?

i also had that thought! I do not think the sun is very bright on a stellar scale (it's a G-type star; when I pulled up Andromeda as the first alphabetical constellation, the G stars in it are estimated at 28 times the sun's luminosity 85ly away and 51 times the sun's luminosity at 155ly away)
and so we would have to be fairly close in cosmic terms to this other system to be visible enough to be in a constellation. here's one convo about it on stackexchange. their estimate for naked eye visibility for the sun is 56ly (of course if we start wondering about the ocular capabilities of extraterrestrial life we. complicate this)
anyway as it so happens possibly habitable exoplanets within plausible travel range is a topic of interest, so wiki's list of nearest terrestrial exoplanet candidates (ie those with 50ly) happens to also be a pretty good estimate of possibly lifebearing worlds that are close enough to see our sun well enough to stick it in a constellation.
we've currently found 11 terrestrial exoplanets we think are in their stars' habitable zone within 50ly.
so it's not infinite but it's definitely possible, even limiting our expectations about what life looks like and what kind of systems can support it to our own needs.
Somewhere out there on a planet very far away is a civilization that has included our sun in a beloved constellation of some animal we couldn't dream up if we tried

On related note, a few years ago, the Entomological Society of America officially discontinued the use of "gypsy moth" and "gyspy ant" as common names for Lymantria dispar and Aphaenogaster araneoides. L. Dispar is now known as the "spongy moth," so named for the appearance of their eggs, but I don't think a new common name has caught on for the ant species yet.
These changes we brought about, in large part, by the advocacy of Romani people in academia. You might not think that bug names are a very serious issue, but I believe that language matters. These species became known as "gypsies" because their attributes were likened to certain stereotypes and negative perceptions of actual Roma, so the continued use of those names reaffirmed those negative associations in the public consciousness. Slurs and pejoratives can never be truly decontexualized.
In my mind, one of the biggest obstacles that Romani people face when we are trying to advocate for ourselves is a lack of recognition as a marginalized group that deserves the necessary consideration. Even for seemingly trivial matters, like bugs or comic book characters, the way that people talk about us-- and talk down to us, when we get involved-- is telling. So, I always think that changes like this are a win, because it means that people are willing to learn and grant us the dignity we deserve. And there's nothing wrong with wanting to effect change in your own field, even arts and science.

Little details I appreciate about Poof (now Peri) in the reboot!
He has Wanda’s hair swirl, but Cosmo’s eyebrows
His wand is a similar in appearance to his baby rattle
His suspenders parallel Cosmo’s suit and tie
His hair being in a swirl makes it reminiscent of his original little hair curl
His voice direction and personality seems to be inspired by pilot / early season 1 Cosmo
The fact that they had him change his name because Poof is a slur in multiple countries lmao
#sorry for geeking out at 1am over a cartoon I grew up with.#wait no I’m not#peri#poof#fairly oddparents#the fairly oddparents#azure does a thing
