@jamesgunn.bsky.social in comics, Superman has giant statues of his kryptonian parents, I’m curious, in the DCU’s version does he have giant statues of his earth parents? (I assume there’s more rooms in the fortress of solitude than just the one we saw)

The question of how we will get along with people who supported Trump, who've since had a change of heart, does not keep me up at night. Our inability to work cohesively with people who more or less want what we want—that fucks with me relentlessly.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Reading about Isabel Allende and delighted to discover she was fired from one of her first jobs, translating romance novels from English to Spanish, ‘for making unauthorized changes to the dialogue of the heroines to make them sound more intelligent’. Badass.
