So Fucked Up And Twisted How They Intentionally Wrote Parallels Between Cosmo And Knuckles Like For A

so fucked up and twisted how they intentionally wrote parallels between cosmo and knuckles like for a moment i thought i was just reaching like i was just imagining it but like twice the two of them acknowledge the similarities between them. the way he canonically saw himself in her and became so protective of her, and got so emotional about wanting her to be free and wanting her to live and thrive like. god. it drives me insane. he looked at her and was like oh thats my new baby sister i know it to be true. and. and and and and and

I am Dr. Imtithal, living in the besieged northern Gaza Strip. For 11 months, we have lost our lives. We have lost everything. I have lost my brother, my home, our money, our source of livelihood, my profession as a dentist, and all our memories. Our lives have become difficult. We cannot obtain the necessities of life, such as water, food, medicine, and shelter. We live a difficult life in a school as a shelter for us after we lost our home. We cannot obtain a clean life and we suffer from the spread of diseases. Every so often we are displaced. We cannot settle in a place because of the intensity of the bombing. I hope you can help me so that I can protect my family, which consists of 35 people, most of whom are children...

I know quite literally nothing about Ben 10, but I'm actually interested in this au lol

Cream 10

Exactly what it sounds like; Sonic/Ben 10 crossover au where Cream is the wielder of the Omnitrix.

-She doesn't bother with the whole secret identity thing because she's already a fairly well-known hero thanks to her adventures with the rest of the Sonic cast.

-I'm torn on whether she should find it when she's six so she can go through some of the games with it or if I should make it a post-series time skip so she can be 10 for thematic purposes

-Her unseen dad was a Plumber who fell in the line of duty, and Vanilla wasn't a Plumber but was fully aware of what he did for a living.

-As you might imagine, GUN takes issue with a child being in possession of such a powerful "weapon." Given what happened last time they took issue with something like that, nobody's particularly interested in their opinion, especially Team Dark.

Cream's Starting Playlist: -Quarterback (Tetramand) (yeah cream's nicknaming conventions are different from Ben's. Mostly) -Permafrost (Necrofriggian) -Eyesore (Black Arms) (a big part of why I'm conflicted on whether to go post-series or mid-series. can you imagine how things would go in Shadow the Hedgehog if Cream turned into this thing?) -Brainwave (Voxai) (look Chonicles isn't good but it gave me cool aliens to use and by chaos I'm going to use them) -Hijack (Galvanic Mechamorph) -Gargantula (unknown giant spider alien) -Short Circuit (Nosedeenian) -Apeshoot (unknown species based on a monkey slingshot toy) -Spin Cycle (Ferrograde) -Sea Queen (Thalassian) (while Thalassians are normally deep-sea fish, the Omnitrix has safety features that prevent Sea Queen from undergoing fatal decompression. She still can only form legs on scale-shedding day though.)

-As we all know, Eggman's first thought when encountering something new and interesting is "how can I make an evil robot out of this" and the Omnitrix is no exception. To that end he created Ovitrix, a pseudo-Gizoid like Gemerl that uses a reverse-engineered Omnimatrix (the core bit that makes the transformations happen) to turn into replicas of most of the robot designs Eggman's come up with over the years, as well as a few new ones based on some of Cream's alien forms because of course.

-Ovitrix has a black and green color scheme, while Cream's Omnitrix is orange (so it looks a bit like Mad Ben's but without the decorative spikes) since that's Her Color.

-I'm including the full rogues gallery from both continuities, though some of the human villains will get reimagined as Mobians instead and almost all of them are gonna need some tweaks to fit them into the Sonic Universe.

-well, technically I've replaced Kevin with an oc but that explanation (both the who and the why) deserves its own post

I've got other ideas for this AU but this'll do for a first post

I don’t get this whole “pirate Sonic 3 “ thing. Yes the higher ups said some stuff I disagree with. But then again, all companies have said things that I find appalling. What matters is the end product. If it turns out that Sonic 3 is bad then yes, I guess you could pirate. But if Sonic 3 is good, I wouldn’t want a shaky camrip to be my experience watching the film. 🤷‍♂️

Here's what I think:

It's easy to say "boycott a company so they will listen" but when it's a huge and powerful one that earns millions every year, what exactly does that achieve? Almost everything we buy, eat, wear etc is made by a corporation that have terrible morals and poor working conditions etc, but the sad truth is that we often don't have a choice where we invest our money.

For the movie industry, it's not so easy to choose where and how we see something we like, as many of it is taken up by large corporations with lesser morals. Disney is a fine example; if one day we decided to never watch anything they distribute ever again, that would be very difficult due to the number of studios they now own.

Corporations are rich, own a lot of businesses, and are well rehearsed in squeezing money out of consumers. Doesn't often matter what they do behind the scenes - that's not where their morals lie.

But, like I said, we can choose to support something they put out, because we are choosing to support the people behind the scenes. The ones who aren't the greedy higher ups, but the people who put all the work and passion into something that will bring us joy.

If I hear a movie is bad, then I don't go and see it. Or I watch it when it comes on TV. But a cam rip is not the best way at all.
