okay so i was thinking of a joke earlier about how in DPDC Amity Park's slogan "a great place to live" is not only city propaganda but also the city lording it over the rest of America for being normal. But then I remembered that, despite how many DCU Cities with heroes in it there are, the amount of cities in America without heroes still far outnumber the amount of cities in America WITH heroes.

So I did a little digging so the joke would still land. Something most heroes have in common is that they operate in major cities. What makes a major city? I found that the general consensus is that the population is roughly over or around a million. THEN I looked up the populations of cities in the DCU that I thought of off the top of my head. So Gotham, Metropolis, Starling City, Central City, Jump City. All of them ranked up to millions in population (most of them were in the tens of millions).

Amity Park's wikipedia describes it as being similar to specifically Philadelphia, Chicago, and San Francisco.

Philadelphia's Population: 1.576 million as of 2021 Chicago's Population: 2.697 million as of 2021 San Francisco: 815,201 as of 2021

Whiiich means that Amity Park if we take that from canon, is probably a major city. There are approximately 19,000 cities in America with probably less than a hundred that are major cities. Adding the DCU major cities wouldn't skew the data too much.

Which MEANS that I can make the joke that Amity Park's "great place to live" is not only just typical city propaganda, but also its Amity Park lording it over the other major cities for being one of the only major cities that doesn't have problems bad enough to warrant a superhero or a vigilante. Cue stage left the Fentons and Phantom :)

Amity Parkers were probably SO proud that they didn't need a superhero. They didn't have to worry about things like 'world ending threats' and 'super-powered individuals' and 'staggering property damage'. And then enter Fentons.

It also could be used as an excuse for why nobody took notice to Amity Park getting ghosts if folks like me aren't huge fans of the notion of a media blackout via Tucker, Technus, or the US Government. Or if you want to keep Amity Park as its urban city self. Amity Park's news on ghosts gets drowned out in a week because there's news on more popular, well-known cities going on every other day. The shit going on in Amity Park is every other major city's regular Tuesday and it gets filtered as such.

[jupiter-reimagined]

how are your ocs with needles,,inspired lore question today?,,

hm,, im taking a leap of faith by which ocs you wanna hear about. so. ((please tell me which oc world want to talk about. theres. so many i cant even keep track anymore LMAO))

sylvester; mārīte, dominic, rosemary, marcus and elias are fine with them

dominic and butcher used to hate them, but got desensitized overtime (dominic went on T shots, butcher has a whole buncha tattoos)

katie, ivy, līva and elizabeth are iffy about them and would rather not deal w them, but can and do put up with em

oliver and charlie despise them and do not like them. at all. screaming, crying, throwing up and breaking a window to get away from them

[jacklesraised]

see the reality is i post on my rps usually when nobodys been there a bit and nobody is probably online, but the mental illness in me keeps saying its bc everyone secretly hates me and i dont deserve love, and when i tell a gov doctor that, they basically just say ‘take your antidepressant’s and shut up’ which is also funny when said gov doctor wont refill my fucking antidepressants in the first place

Hi Batty! How are you doing lately? ❤️

Hi!! I've been doing okay, but the past couple days have been a little rough. Once I get my sleep schedule back in order I should be fine ^-^

I'm excited for some stuff happening this summer!! A local trans organisation is hosting some pool parties, and I'm hoping to attend!! I tried on my swimsuit earlier to make sure it still fits, and I'm all set :3 I'm planning on taking my partner to one of the pool parties when they're visiting and I'm very very very excited about it!!!! I can't wait to see them in person :3

I could make this a mile long and talk about everything, but I will spare you the text brick and maybe break things up into different posts. Thank you for asking!! I hope you're doing well ^-^ Wishing you the best 💕💕💕

Israeli gov-led Zoom calls, WhatsApp chat logs, and other docs provide a window into the massive effort to shape online discourse and silence pro-Palestinian voices.

As the Israel-Hamas war began to heat up in late October, Courtney Carey, a Dublin-based employee of the Israeli website building company Wix, posted the Irish words “SAOIRSE DON PHALAISTIN” -- “Freedom for Palestine” -- on her LinkedIn page. Within 24 hours of Carey’s LinkedIn post appearing, Alon Ozer, a Miami-based investor, took a screenshot of the post and shared it with a WhatsApp group of more than 300 like-minded investors, tech executives, activists, and at least one senior Israeli government official. Ozer took care to note that Carey worked for Wix. Oded Hermoni, a tech journalist-turned-venture capitalist, piped up to assure everyone that Batsheva Moshe, Wix’s general manager for Israel and a member of the group chat, had been “on it since Sat[urday] night.” Moshe then chimed in to assure her peers that the issue with Carey had been “taken care of since it was published.” “I believe there will be an announcement soon re our reaction,” she added. Wix terminated Carey the following day.

She looked stunning as ever today ‼️

Can someone talk to me about architecture, I am deprived of enrichment

hey all

so in a more practical application of the "larp a republican if you're gonna call them" post that got huge, North Carolina is about to have abortion access slashed if nothing's done about it.

SB20 got passed and went up to Gov. Cooper who vetoed it, but there's very very slight veto-proof supermajority in the legislature. Unless at least one Republican breaks ranks the veto will be overridden.

I made a google doc to organize, and you don't have to be a North Carolinian to participate:

Even if you can't participate, please share. A lot of people might lose yet more of their rights very soon.

*At the table, December 23th*

Gov: Don't forget about the holiday party at the statehouse tomorrow night

New York looks over at California: I'll go if you go.

Cal: Yeah, I'm going

The next day everyone was wearing their Christmas sweaters. If you expected California (and Nevada for that matter but this is about Cal) to be wearing a Christmas sweater and jeans you would be dead wrong. California showed up without their beanie in a full face of Christmas themed makeup, a white sweater, green velvet skirt and red gogo boots.

California doesn't dress up often but his boyfriend's (NY) favorite holiday is Christmas so he may as well give him something to look at.

None of the other states had ever really seen Cali wearing anything other than his platform Doc Martens, black ripped jeans, California shirt, flannel, and beanie, this whole outfit came as a shock. Cal would be lying if she said she didn't enjoy everyone staring at them as he walked in the room

[angelpuns]

Also some design updates for these guys, we'll see if they stick!

Leo has a jacket instead of a scarf now ( due to some stuff I added to the doc and realized his design needed an update to reflect the changes) he also has two stripes and a bit of a different head shape. also longer pants. I'm trying a new eye design too, but I've tried it before and get tired of it easily so we'll see how long that lasts!

Mikey is more round. That's p much it cause he was perfect from the get-go LMAO l. Also made him even younger to better reflect mine and my youngest sibling's own age gap ( which is actually 8 years, but I couldn't make it that big or they would be the teenage mutant ninja turtles anymore ).

Donnie finally got a gov. Designated turtle species!!! I ended up going with Southern Painted turtle so he and Leo kinda match!! He also got a snoot!! And became a noodle :)

Raph is almost exactly the same except more square, with shorter mask tails.

I've simplified all their limbs to match their hands too, plus I like this look better overall. I've been thinking about changing Leo's mask tails to look more like styled hair, but I really really like him with the long flowing ones, so we'll just have to see :)

I've added so much to the Google doc that I an risking getting way too excited for it and not finishing other stuff, but thankfully writing it down here means I will have to be held accountable and that I'll have to finish stuff!! Plus I'm sure everyone wants to know what happens at the end of the Kid Leo au ;)
