Making my own comic thing (maybe two cause of my two oc's) inspired by @plumbus-central :)

1). I may have a few ideas for Jamil since we are dealing with gems, gold, jewels, and such. But I am also adding a bit of a snake theme idea for him
2). Imagine Yuu and Grim in the Cafeteria eanting to make an announcement among the school about their birthday. Would the reaction towards this vary or would Yuu be coddled like crazy based on how they see Yuu based on one of your previous posts?
Tumblr media
Ooh, I'd love to hear your ideas for Jamil! I kinda want to give him a cobra hood behind his head and torso, but I'm not sure how well that would work,,, if it does work well I'd probably add gold and silver details in some places... I think I kinda want him to have a more human-y face like Epel does, but I also don't know what texture I would opt for - maybe a gemstone overlay with silver patterns on his face partially inspired by his OB form...
Tumblr media
As for a birthday announcement!
I feel like it'd spread through the college like a rumour (Cater's fault) and Yuu would be the recipient of an odd approximation of human birthday traditions if they've explained how they work, or Weirdcore traditions if they haven't. I'll put my elaboration on both of these scenarios under the cut since it's gonna be pretty long lmao
Tumblr media
If they've spoken about human traditions enough for it to be known of by their friends, then they'll wake up to a fair number of gifts left at their door from various friends and some other students who they're on the good side of (like some other flower-head students they helped get out of Azul's contracts giving them little pots of eye goop)
They end up needing Vil to go through any beauty products they receive to make sure they're safe enough for more fragile skin types, and they end up asking Ace and Deuce about what various items they were given are meant for (which is met by some teasing if they ask about something that are believed to be obvious in their world)
Some of the odd items they may receive are various ornaments that stick in corners of rooms like cobwebs, a one-way window film that makes it look like a galaxy is inside the house instead of letting people see inside, and some odd item like that plumbus thing from Rick and Morty. Aside from that, they might also be given assorted food items that may not be found in their world, or clothing items tailored to fit them.
As for a birthday party, it would be somewhat similar to the unbirthday parties in the Weirdcore AU - with odd desserts that seem to have faces or whimper when you go to take a bite to boot! (Don't worry, there are sweets and foods that are a bit more normal too! Trey even figured out something that's more like the cakes back home!)
If their human friend follows the Brazilian birthday tradition of giving the first slice of cake to the person they love most, everyone's gonna be trying to subtly or not-so-subtly convince them to pick them as the person who gets the first slice of cake. An Australian human may get an odd type of fairy bread from the faefolk students at their birthday party (Silver didn't let Lilia bake it, don't worry) and Lilia may sneakily use butter to grease the nose of a Canadian human on their special day! They're eager to attempt any traditions the human may have spoken of!
If you teach them the happy birthday song it will sound like some kinda fucked up cult is singing it. Just for funsies. All different voice types (glitching, echoey, rasping, floaty, etc.) singing a dissonant melody as they stumble through. A lot of them are earnest about it though, they're trying.
They're all so eager to try these new traditions and give their human friend a sense of familiarity - even if they don't get stuff 100% right I feel like they'd get an A for effort
Tumblr media
Now, as for Weirdcore traditions, I'm not actually 100% sure about how they may go about celebrating birthdays in their world - although chances are they'll have different traditions depending on the part of the world they're from...
Maybe there's a special type of fruit pie that's baked in the rose queendom for birthdays, which is supposed to predict how their luck will be in the following year. Depending on the colour of the jam inside the pie after it's cut, you can make a vague prediction about what your future will hold! It's pretty much impossible to control what colour the filling turns after baking, so you'll only know after it's cut!
I can't think of any more Weirdcore birthday traditions right now... I may try brainstorming for a bit and if I come up with something I'll make a post later!

It's not just merchandise roundup day: it's also my birthday! ✨🎄 Yep, I was born on Christmas Eve. Everyone I know is afraid of aging, but I couldn't wait to turn 30 last year. 31 isn't too bad, either. I don't see myself as old, but does my age make me a fandom elder? 🤔
Anyway, much as it pains me to say this, the Rue 21 near my place is still closing. I went inside for what's probably the last roundup in that store. I didn't expect to find anything, but they had one new item: a pair of boxers that are entirely black except for a picture of Rick and Morty screaming on the waistband.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I hope the location in the mall doesn't close, but that particular mall is hanging on by a thread. Most of the stores are just empty space. The other Rue 21 locations are almost an hour away!
I also stopped by one of the local head shops. I've posted pictures of it before, but I had to share this plumbus pipe again because it's so well-crafted. (The colors come from the backlighting.)
Tumblr media
No weird clip art with Rick as Pennywise or Mr. Jellybean creeping on Morty: just a well-made piece of glass.
These pictures aren't the greatest, but they also had new backpacks. I love the vibrant colors.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I tried to find pictures online. All I could find from the Dabtized brand was this Alice in Wonderland backpack. I've actually seen those illustrations in another head shop (probably ripped off from Dabtized, if Dabtized is even the original owner.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mad Hatter Rick is a good look for him.
Five Below had new winter-themed socks and a poster set. Honestly, I don't see the appeal of merchandise where the characters look scared or pissed off?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Off to the thrift store. The shelves were pretty sparse, but I love these Mr. Sparkle boxers. That's one of my favorite Simpsons B-plots. I actually thought it was the main plot when I was a child, probably because it was so weird and entertaining.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Snowflake boxers!
Tumblr media
Another gift set, this time featuring a mug, socks and key chain.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I had extra time, so I browsed the graphic tees. This one was so big that I had to step back to get the whole illustration in frame:
Tumblr media
And finally: this one cracked me up. Are you naughty like Toxic Rick or nice like "Healthy" Rick?
Tumblr media
"Healthy" Rick was cold and uncaring toward Morty. A better comparison would be Rickbot and disheveled Rick searching for Prime in his hideout. Rickbot was an angel!
Today, I wondered if I saw Rick and Morty merchandise when I worked in a department store in 2015. That's when the series really blew up. I don't remember anything, but I also didn't watch the show until 2019, so I wasn't looking for it. Maybe Rick was shilling sneakers alongside Kim Kardashian perfumes.
And if he wasn't, he's got a pretty good gig endorsing fast food on the show. Who wants Denny's? 🥞

My Morticia trio
Tumblr media
U-134: Wallflower Morticia (center)
One of the more run-of-the-mill, vanilla Morticias, similar to C-137′s Morty
Most Morticias are more social and confident than most Mortys, but U-134 is an exception, because of her poor eyesight, which requires prescription glasses and has kept her socially isolated
A Rick invisibly visiting her at a young age might have been responsible for her vision problems in the first place, as part of some experiment
Prior to her grandfather's "return" around the time she started high school, she was living a very mundane, quiet, and lonely life
In adventures she plays a passive, timid role, except when pushed to her limit - something that’s happened to her more and more over time
Lives in Summer’s shadow, envying and not envying her at the same time; everyone but Rick seems to give Summer more attention than her
She never really got over the trauma of finding out from Mr. Goldenfold’s dreams that he’s attracted to her
She only abandoned an Earth once, for the squirrels, and was allowed to remember it because it was her first time abandoning an Earth; it was a much longer squirrel-based adventure than we see in the snippet in Morty’s Mind Blowers, a whole episode’s worth, and was no less traumatizing than Rick Potion #9; she’s afraid of squirrels now
She had a fangirl crush on Vance Maximus, Renegade Starsoldier, and took it very personally when Rick killed him
She and Rick didn’t go to the Citadel much, but they were there on an adventure when it was destroyed (split up for separate A and B plots, Rick investigating Ricks, and Morticia investigating Morticias and Mortys), and she got isekaid to me along with U-114 and I-707
U-114: True Love Morticia (right)
A Morticia obsessed with romance, soulmates, and purity, always waiting for The One and always sure that he'll arrive any day now like in a Disney movie
Serene and faithful in her principles, it’s hard to shake her sense of peace
She imprinted on family stories about her parents’ early shotgun wedding, and sees it as beautiful and aspirational
A mostly normal Morticia before Rick showed up, but she chose to play up her idealistic side to contrast herself with Rick
Rick did not take kindly to this, and made several attempts to break her spirit (including showing her across dimensions how bad her parents are for each other, taking her to Gazorpazorp for a much longer adventure than C-137 went on, and taking her to Mormon Lizard Heaven, a dystopian marriage-focused afterlife), all of which backfired
One of these attempts was similar to Rick Potion #9, and similarly concluded with abandoning the Earth; she didn’t show much of an emotional response to this, so later when she abandoned her second Earth over the squirrels, she was also allowed to remember that, which also left concerningly little impact on her
She frequently wondered if the subject of her latest adventure was her one true love; close calls included Gazorpazorp bin Laden, Jaguar, and Fart
The final straw came when she started shipping Rick with Unity and decided to do a Parent Trap thing to set them back up with each other
Unity went yandere and started taking over the Earth, Rick abandoned the Earth and U-114 Morticia, and the Citadel abducted her as an abandoned Morticia (it’s free real estate!)
She lived in the Citadel for some time after, and became a moderately wealthy power player as assorted Mortys and a few Ricks attempted to court her; she politely turned down each
She had her own penthouse suite where she grew into an introverted shut-in, playing with a Story Train all day and fantasizing about the perfect domestic life she knew she was made for
A laughingstock for most of the Citadel’s Ricks
I-707: Bunny Ears Guard Morticia (left)
A more divergent Morticia from the more central Mortys we’re familiar with
Rick entered her life much earlier, when she was seven, and they hit it off as a team immediately
She visited and cleaned out Froopyland with her mom and Rick, and once it was deemed imaginary enough again, her mom gave that world to her as a gift
She correctly deduced that it was really Rick leaning on her mom to give it to her
She once saved her dad’s job by lying in front of Congress about an ad campaign that “unknowingly” incorporated hypnosis spirals known to cause seizures
She knew Krombopulos Michael as a close family friend; had reservations about his line of work but still liked him and his family, who frequently had dinner with the Smiths
When she was nine she butt-dialed Krombopulos Michael and accidentally had him kill her friend Jessica, who needed to be replaced with a clone; that was her Look On Down From The Bridge moment
After about five years of adventuring, when she was twelve, “her” Rick died in a tragic everyday Plumbus accident
To escape from her grief, she abandoned her family and moved into the Citadel, before the funeral was even over
This was the first time she’d abandoned an Earth, and she did it by herself, without Rick ever having directly told her to
She’s been putting in her best effort to rise through the ranks in the Citadel and impress people ever since
She overcompensates with a bubbly, manic, detached personality, inspired by Rick but as seen through rose-tinted glasses, so with less of a nasty edge
She’s an instant natural leader for most Mortys and Morticias she works with, and quickly charms most Ricks as well
She was kind of interested in selfcest but got scared off of getting too serious with it when she met Eraserhead Baby Morty, the offspring of a Morty/Morticia couple; she likes boys more than girls but she’s more interested in Morticias than Mortys
She might actually have been attracted to Rick but was more than uncomfortable enough with this to balance it out and repress it
She voted against President Morty but she acted like she voted for him once he won, because she’s a bit of a power-chasing sycophant
“another day working at the discharge cannon spire. everyone keeps asking me if they can fuck the discharge cannon. buddy, they won’t even let me fuck it”
Her dimension number is “LOLI” upside down

Flashback to the time an anti who was a rick and morty fan made a callout post and called someone a pedophile for drawing porn of morty who is a FICTIONAL minor and said: "morty is a minor so stop making him look sexual or else you're pedo whether you like it or not!" And i was like " ????? " "i dont even watch the show BUT EVEN I KNOW Morty is already sexualized in the show itself! " .Oh my God antis are so confusing i've given up on their dumbass logic at this point oof
Things the canon show did to sexualize Morty:
-Have him have a sex robot and father an alien kid.
-Constant reference to him masturbating or having sexual fantasies.
-A scene of what obviously is referencing a strip club full of Mortys dancing on stages with poles.
-Having him have relationships with older women.
-Implied that he had an orgy on Atlantida.
-Explicitely showing having an orgy that included both his sister and grandpa.
-Put him as a voyeur as his grandpa soul-fucked his dragon.
-Have him make out and flirt with his grandpa while possessed by a parasyte alien.
-Implant a giant seed up his ass for “love of his grandpa” (as Justin Roiland put it).
-Put him on orgies with older women.
Things that the comic did to sexually Morty (that I can remember, I have to read them again, I am sure there is more):
-Rick offering Morty as bait for a judge to be indulgement with their crimes and talking about how Morty just does that on his own.
-Mentions of Ricks and Mortys sleeping on the same hotel room with one bed.
-Morty fucking another version of himself, with his entire family knowing about it and Rick taking it as something completely normal.
-Other references to masturbating or having sexual fantasies. Things that the game Pocket Mortys did: -Miami Morty.
-Mortaion Morty.
-Master of Plumbus Morty.
-Jail Bait Morty.
-Atlantida Morty. -Post Atlantida Morty. My little naive fucker... If you are a fan of this show, the comics or the games, you are just about as gross as the rest of us making ships out of it. We are all on the same gross boat. Better get used to it.

It could be so.. much.. better...
I love the phrase "that sets a  pretty low bar" ...
 How about a system that works to elevate the standard of living and the rights of not just the citizenry of the country they live in, but provides the choice and opportunity for those outside the country.
our country seems to have gotten stuck on "Allowing" freedoms... 
but the devil is in the details, 
you are only "allowed" to exercise a freedom if you have a good job or a level of income that "affords" you the right to exercise those freedoms
In our system you have to be lucky, then you have to know there are bunch of hoops to jump through in order to attain a level of freedom. You have to know the right people, live in the right sub segment of society, got to the right schools, and make some sacrifices, either in time spent working, or limits on behavior, disguised as “contributing to society” and “obeying the law, doing right and staying in your lane”
Also, you can attain a level of freedom, and have it taken away if the fickle winds of fate blow some other direction. You get sick, someone screwes up at your company and makes a product the wrong color and 1000 people loose their jobs because it turns out nobody wants a polka dotted plumbus, people wanted purple plumbus. 
Request for Revolutionaries: what about a system that actually works to help EVERYONE achieve their best,
If you want to achieve, the system HELPS you achieve. not PREVENTS you from achieving.
Like our friggin education system... 
American college does not help people achieve.  
the American college system exist to PREVENT too many people from achieving.
Becoming a medical doctor is Hard, 
This not because medicine is hard, 
but because the education system specifically MAKES it hard, 
in order to limit the number of doctors and nurses.[
If there are too many doctors and nurses, doctors would never get rich. 
like in India... where the medical education system helps anyone become a doctor that wants to become a doctor. 
doctors and nurses are average middle class.
The most offensive thing I learned in my college experience, was learend early on, In a huge room full of people who wanted to become engineers, The professor told the whole room: "This curriculum  is designed to weed out people ..."
How much better would our society be, how much better off would the whole WORLD be if our education system elevated everyone, enabled everyone rather than “filter people out” 
I found out just a few years ago why Harvard is such a special institution... at Harvard, everything about the experience is designed to HELP you become whatever you want to become. 
Harvard does not weed out people, getting INTO harvard is the weeding... you don't flunk out in Harvard. Harvard will teach you whatever you want to learn. People always point out that Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard... Bill Gates finished his studies. Harvard taught him everything he needed to know to do what he wanted. He left when he was done, not when he reached some arbitrary meaningless deadline
Harvard is hard to get into because a Harvard education is resource intensive. Every harvard student get’s whatever they need to learn whatever they want. Usually that means time and attention from the best teachers. In the world harvard was created in, that meant living in a location because learning required physical interaction with the best teaching minds, which ALSO had to be in the same location, and that all cost money for housing, food, buildings, roads, specialized teaching equipment not available in the average home (chalkboards chal, and libraries)  
We NOW live in a world where the equipment neccessary to recieve a harvard education is cheap enough to be given to everyone. 
We now live in a world where the sum of human knowledge is available to anyone 24/7 anywhere in the world. 
We now live in a world where a lesson, the best lesson ever created, can be accessed anywhere, by anyone, in any language. And that lesson can be improved, and tweaked for different learning styles. 
In the world that existed when harvard was created, if you missed a lesson, you missed it. FOR EVER. And the next professor, or the next lesson may be presented in at a pace, or in a manner that does not work for your brain, or culture, or situation in the moment. 
We no longer live in that world. 
We NOW live in a world where everyone could be given the means (a good laptop and an internet connection, and public funding of learning services like wikipedia, & youtube, skillshare, brilliant)
Right now the goals of our education system are unforgivable meger. 
In this time Our education systems are FAILING our society. Our education is not ADVANCING society, but HOLDING IT BACK. 
We live in a world where commodity entertainment, funded by advertising, is providing better quality education than the institutions tasked with doing the job. 
My uncle was a biology professor, dedicated his life to helping people learn, helping improve the population he was a part of. He retired from teaching some years ago. He was proud of the work he did, but was glad to retire from an institution, and a whole system that no longer worked to improve life, but had become a barrier, a mere hoop to jump through, and a hinderance to improving the living conditions of people everywhere.

People act like Rick and Morty was never cool, but...nah, it absolutely was. I didn't watch it until about 2019, and I still saw it everywhere. It was like Star Wars. That show popped up in the most unexpected places.
For example, I followed a dollhouse miniatures artist who made a tiny Morty and plumbus. Other popular shows referenced it. This comic (which I love) was ALL over social media--one of my Facebook friends even shared it. Rick and Morty street art was everywhere. People made Mr. Meeseeks novelty accounts in Internet comment sections...the list goes on.
And again, I didn't watch the series until it was past its peak of popularity. I still saw the characters on a regular basis. Rick and Morty was the center of the zeitgeist.
Half the people who make fun of us now probably watched the earlier seasons and liked them (and some of those people are probably still secretly watching it, lmao.) Now it's "Haha uh I never liked that cringey show! Ricky and Morty is for nerds and dweebs! You're cringe if you like it!"

Another active list of ideas for me to update as they come to me. This one is all about Halloween Decorations/Haunted House ideas. I always prided myself in making a house people would find memorable, enjoyable and scary. Some of these concepts are basic idea that requires a little bit of setup and other are larger projects that may need the whole damn street to be on board. Have a read and let me know what you think OR if you have any ideas to suggest to my list.
Alien Crash Site
I always loved the crash landing decorations. They are rare and obviously take some effort to set up but if someone puts the effort in, they often come out looking like the best house on the block.
If I had money and time I would love to construct something like crashed Tie Fighter or Pelican (Halo) on the lawn but since those ideas are expensive, I am thinking to construct a UFO saucer out of aluminum or sheet metal with a little glass cockpit on top and maybe a rubber alien corpse on the lawn somewhere with dry ice for a smoke effect.
Best idea for a costume is a Men in Black look or a Hazmat Suit. We are there to cover up the alien sighting and make sure everything is transferred to Area 51 without being contaminated.
Effort: Medium
Tumblr media
Chemical Spill
Chemical Spill has been an idea I been kicking around since High School. Men in yellow suits walking around with cannister and using metal tongs on both side to hold it. This would be more a skit then it would be an actual haunted house as we walk up and down the street with our gas masks only to drop the container and have the smoke (dry ice again) spill out into the area and the two of US flee in terror or act like we were dying from the fumes. This could be very fun and of course some people might not like the joke but fuck em. 
Effort: Low
Tumblr media
Hogwarts
This idea feels simple enough; Brooms, Cauldrons, Floating Candles, School Spirit and so on. Harry Potter does well as an idea not because its so unique but rather because the world is so rich and it has become as big as Star Wars, Star Trek, and Lord of the Fucking Rings. This will excite the Potter Fans to see a house with the four houses of Hogwarts represented. While the initial idea is to keep it to one doorway to deliver candy, I also thought a Sorting Hat puppet might be cool leading the kids to different candy bowls representing the different chapters in the school.
It’s all really up in the air with lots of different ways to build the Harry Potter Haunted House. I would be excited to explore/do all of them over the course of a few years.
Effort: Low to Medium
Tumblr media
Plants Vs Zombies
Perhaps a dated idea since the age of Plants VS Zombies is about 4 or 5 years behind us now. I still love the idea of placing 5 lawn mowers in a row, toss up some sunflowers with faces on them and create some defensive plants that are a throwback to the game.
This will take some effort as I will have to A) Burrow my neighbor's lawnmowers B) Build the plants from the game C) Make some dummy zombies to pull the whole damn thing together! The great thing is this is all work and very very little play. Rick’s Garage and the Quarantine Zone require a commitment to character, this is all about setting it up and letting people look at it and say. “Oh yeah, that was a thing once.”
Effort: Medium
Tumblr media
Rick’s Garage
It should be noted I don’t look or drink like Rich Sanchez but when I want too, I can sound EXACTLY like Rick which I think is a great opportunity to troll some trick or treaters who come to my door.
Open garage, light on, stool out in the middle and me sitting there working on a new invention. Of course, there is a pickle on the desk and a large cardboard circle nearby with a light projected on it with a green lava lamp like effect to make it look like a portal.
The setup is simple enough and a treat for the fans of the show who will pick up the little easter eggs around the garage I would make IE the portal gun, the Plumbus, the butter bot, etc. Of course, the real fun would be acting like a dick.
*Clears throat for Rick’s Voice*
“Oh.. ohh another ninja, great. You look pretty pale to be Japanese. Just another white kid appropriating another peoples culture, huh?”
“You’re all really good parents. Filling your kids up with sugar when we’re the fattest country in the world. Say hello to type 2 diabetes for me.”
“Jesus a bunch of teenagers! I guess no one is getting laid tonight. Go home, watch a movie and do some dry humping until one of you works out how to lose your virginity in the most awkward way possible.”
Effort: Low
Tumblr media
Wonderland Tea Party
The Wonderland Tea Party idea was something I came up with a few years back. Giant mushrooms, a long table on the lawn, and a few method actors playing Alice, the Teacup Mouse, Mad Hatter and me as the March Hare. Naturally, the insane people would be the Hare and Hatter talking crazy to one another across the table. Alice would be the go too person for candy being the only sane one at the table.
If the decorations were done right, I can easily imagine Cheshire cat smiling from the corner of the roof, a tiny door on a nearby wall and lots of other practical effects decorations to pull the scene together. This is another Haunted House/Decoration that really requires people to get into their roles while we have a tea party on my front lawn. I hope to find a girlfriend crazy enough to do this with me.
Effort: Medium
Tumblr media
Quarantine Zone
This is something I been wanting to do most on the list. The Quarantine Zone is a nothing short of interactive Trick or Treat experience. A culdesac converted into a zombie outbreak zone. At the opening of the street, some rented chain link fences to block the sidewalks, a white quarantine tent and people dressed up as soldiers to hold the checkpoint. On the other side of the fence, the neighborhood has turned into a zombie epidemic with shamblers walking about, corpses on the lawn and other practical effects to give the end of the world vibe.
The Trick or Treaters come to the white tent where they meet a soldier who will be their escort to one, two or three candy houses. Using an air compressor we can blast them with air to make it seem like they are going thru a decontamination room. The soldier will use his airsoft gun (unloaded) to shoot a few shamblers who will drop to the grass as he leads them to some “safe houses” where some survivors are locked away and giving away king size candy bars. I always imagined one house could have someone who is bitten and slowly turning, another house could have a survivor who died but their candy bowl is still there (small candies) and the last house be a man or woman who is afraid to open the door but the soldier convinces the kids to yell trick or treat to let them know they are human.
I imagine how interactive this all would be for the kids and having the soldiers communicate with the survivors with walkie-talkies. Also having a few houses open where zombies can shamble in to take their break and let another actor step out to play the undead for a few hours. It's a dream and one which I love to have come true one day.
Effort: Very High
Tumblr media
As always thanks the reading and feel free to share your own ideas or leave notes that I can add to my list.
Regards, Michael California
