DC Comics has handed the keys to the “Champion of the Oppressed” to a guy who has dedicated himself to oppress me, and my partner, and millions of people like us. It represents a fundamental misread of who the character is, and what he means.

It is dispiriting. It is wearying. It is also, finally, not for me.

One of the other nicknames that accrued to Superman right away – that predates “Man of Steel” by a good amount – is “The Man of Tomorrow.” And much of his early iconography bears a distinctive Socio-Realist, Diego Rivera vibe: a lot of burnished golden sunrises, eyes raised to the horizon, gazing into the future.

Because that’s where he lives, Superman. And that’s what he says to us: We can do better. We can be better, to ourselves, and to each other.

Hey, DC Comics? Be better.

I bet so. Ew.

I feel really bad for my character now for all those times I slammed like 10 Potions of Minor Healing in a row because I was too stingy to go for the Potion of Vigorous Healing. *Urp*

I work at a public library.: Sale Books, Checking Out the:

iworkatapubliclibrary:

A woman approached the checkout desk with three books she’d previously purchased from our book sale.

Woman: “Yes, may I return these?”

Me: “What? No. Why?”

Woman: “Well, I’m done with them now. If you can’t give me my money back, can I go trade them for three more sale books?”

Me: “What? No….

She made a valuable discovery that day.

Speaking of amazing comics…

Hazel is my favorite infant/future-self/narrator to date. Just so the record reflects that.

Saga pixel art sooo cooool!

Pretty sure The Stalk would make the best favicon there ever was.
