Speaking As Someone Who (without Breaking The Law) Wreaked Vengeance Such As Was Spoken Of In Hushed

I always figured her mark was a metaphor for bringing out the beauty in the world.

She finds the diamonds in the rough.

rarity is the pony i most often think of when i think about a cutie mark's tie to a special talent. her cutie mark was gained through finding gemstones and her special talent that sets her apart is finding gemstones. even her cutie mark is diamonds

but she isn't known for that. she isn't a miner or geologist, she uses her gems to propel a passion she already had: fashion. it didn't change who she was or what she loved, but she used her talent to elevate what she already loved. it didn't matter that she didn't have a cutie mark's of thread or needles or a sewing machine. she had her special talent and used it for her art, and that's what she is known for. her art isn't her talent, it's a learned skill. she chooses her art as her destiny.

i love her. it's so neat to me

Been trying to learn bookbinding (to mixed results) and from the looks of this I should have started simpler!

I made this zine last year to teach Japanese stab binding. It's a technique that every artist should know—with just a few tools, it's so easy to bind your own sketchbook or to make a physical version of your art/writing/etc. Download the PDF version (with bonus photos & tips!)

One of Spidey's first (and still one of his finest) chilling moments of superhuman intimidation. This is a teenager, and up til this he mostly moved like one. As opposed to, you know, a force of pure primal fury.

Notice that Peter's stride is not even MOMENTARILY halted by the gangsters trying to tackle him. Amazing Spiderman 11

Johnny being asked to supress the part of him that's flaming for the sake of a traditional relationship doesn't seem like the healthiest dynamic ever. XD Luckily he later gets to be true to himself by dating a bunch of aliens, each weirder than the last :)

Now Doris, I'm sure Johnny must be THE most frustraiting boyfriend in the universe But you must know that that's not a promise he can morally keep in all circumstances Amazing Spiderman 21

As fun as it is to watch Spider-Man being (reluctant eventual) friends with the Human Torch, I find it much more amusing to track Peter Parker's hilarious history with Johnny Storm.

"You changed my life with your insipring words" + fucking off immediately. Followed by "you sunuvabitch, you stole my girl with your wiley nerdy boringness!"(regarding a girl Peter actively could not give two shits about). Followed by years of teenage antagonism only evened out when they team up to build a dune buggy together.

I mean Johnny has every reason to get a dressing down. He's acting like a jealous neanderthal. Amazing Spiderman 21

Somehow the first time I've seen memes about this incredibly meme-able book.

it's bad image friday. when i post bad images (i know he doesn't actually say that btw)

I've spread this earworm to my whole friendgroup XD

If you're visiting my profile for the slur song, here's the spotify link:

Text link if that doesn't work.

You can stream it on YouTube too. I'll update if Apple accidentally approve it.

Thankyou for all your messages, I'll get to them all eventually, promise!

Jonah should really have taken this as an object lesson as to Spiderman's willingness to stay down. Amazing Spiderman 20

“Spidey, about before. You know I think you’re the best, right? And not just the superhero stuff. You’re a big brain, too. You should be over there with Reed and Tony, saving our butts.” “Right, like I’m in their league.” “Okay, so let them do their thing. You can go work on a fallback plan.” “Johnny, look at the time. There’s no way I could… possibly… come up with… a fallback plan!”

I love this take! I do feel that in his defense he only picks up the gambling as a schtick AFTER becoming involved with a mystical force that can demonstrably affect chance outcomes.

I like the idea of combining the two ideas; he learned there was a way to lean on the odds and he ain't too proud to try it.

It will never cease to hurt me that his whole gimmick is gambling and luck when his father's gambling issues are (one of) the very thing(s) that delt him a shitty hand in life. For fucks sake, Jou pays his own tuition (highschool in Japan is neither required nor free. It's mentioned that he is trying hard HARD to turn things around by getting into domino high in the manga.)

I can't even blame him for trying to fix things with luck and gambling, it's all he was taught by his old man after all. Ahh talk to me about this I have so many thoughts about Jou. He deserves better.
