She has a canonical kill count of 3.

Also solo'd them despite a type disadvantage against all 3.
The best part is that she blungeoned them to death with a club, way funnier then if their deaths were quick and painless.

But its okay though, they got better

December has been a great month for animation here in Spain:


-My Adventures With Superman (probably some of the best Superman media released in decades) finally got an official release in the country.
-The Boy And The Heron released
-The surprise of What If Season 2 turning out to be an improvement over the first one both writing and visual-wise
-The new Pokémon show "Conserje Pokémon" (idk how to say that in English) released and It is an awesome showcase of Stop-motion
-And that without going through various other releases such as Chicken Run 2 for example

Yeah, really satisfied with how this year ended.

The Superman show hyoe was funny.

Everyone was going bonkers over Lois Lane's new design (I get it) and then she jumped off a building and now everyone hates Lois Lane.

Still looks cute tho.
Comic book fans when their favourite examples of strong women don't just accept everything about their boyfriend and might have justified issues with them (They still haven't forgiven MJ in the Raimi trilogy for not putting up with Peter's bull****)

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Lois Lane also do the whole jumping off a place thing in Superman 2? At the waterfall place? I'm sure its a common trope used in the Superman comics for the whole "Lois Lane finds Clark is Superman" thing. Haven't gotten to the episode where that happens (thanks MightyP for the spoiler) but I'm very confident It is something similar.
IDK why I even bother to share my two cents on the topic, I already know people here hate It when I handle any sort of serious or honest conversation anyways.

You know this isn't true, why are you telling yourself otherwise? Did something happen that I missed?
Just... A series of unlucky situations online Gwen, I'll hopefully get over It in a few days when I meet my IRL friends and get to spend time with them.

Hopefully I can meet them on saturday, that would be quite helpful.

I get it. I genuinely do. I am so goddamn tired and exhausted of all the bull**** I have to deal with constantly, but don't say such things about yourself, it genuinely makes your selfesteem worse over time, none of my partners are in the goddamn EU but I will not rest until I get to hold at least one of them tightly, that's the **** I'm fighting for. Oh, and love and peace, I suppose

Now in all fairness, Raimi's MJ could have been written much better, it felt like dating someone else or getting in danger where her only two personality traits.

Wishing you a lot of strength too Gwen, I'm hopeful you'll get to meet them eventually. You are a genuiely bright-hearted person, I'm sure your partners are trying their best to go overseas and meet you too.

And yeah, I really need to take more care with my self-steem, as a wise person told me once: we need to save ourselves first before saving everyone else.

Sorry for making the topic about me btw, I'll try to... Control myself.

Oh yeah no but seeing that **** as an adult and you realize Peter's an asshole to her and she's completely justified in leaving him, Spiderman 3 especially, even before the suit stuff

Please tell us whether or not it's a real movie when you're done watching it
so it was a movie…more real than fake, and definitely a good Aquaman film, but it probably should’ve come out before Flash did for a more sensible DCEU finale

I'm spending more time in the Grand Underground than I am playing the actual game in BDSP.

Got the second gym badge though. Still not entirely sure how I should be building my team of Polkamon but it's not like the game is requiring much from me atm.

Do I still have to do the play the console upside-down gimmick when evolving Inkay in SV?

The Joy-Cons I have on my Switch now don't have gyro and I don't feel like digging out my first party ones.
