Fun Little Thought: Clark Actually Does Need His Glasses Bc He's Pretty Far Sighted Due To His Eyes Are

fun little thought: Clark actually does need his glasses bc he's pretty far sighted due to His Eyes Are Optimized for a Different Atmosphere. he gets them pretty young, about when his parents start noticing him squinting when he has to do his homework. the optometrist is a family friend and is not asking any questions about the absolutely bizarre internal structure of the Kent boy's eyes

he doesn't generally need glasses for Superman work bc he's generally not looking at much up close! but there are a couple times he has to hold a bomb at arm's length to try to focus on the innards and it looks so much like what Pa does when he forgets his reading glasses that Kon almost bursts out laughing when he sees it

Me: But... (gestures to scene I'm working on) You won't fit here.

Idea: That's okay! I'm sure you'll find a place for me

Me: ...

Me: (sighs) yeah. Okay.

The 5 million ideas already living in my head: dude wtf

The thing that helped me go from "no motivation to write" to being on track to have written 200K words of fiction in one year was unlocking

The only time I feel anything close to euphoria is when people are confused. I would like them to also be alarmed.

my gender is literally just a weird guy like i want people to look at me like "that might be a guy ?? probably ??? but something incredibly queer is definitely going on here"

my recipe for drawing hands!

(small note that this is a shortcut that is more abt style and ease than anatomical accuracy. it helps to take time to really properly study hands, makes it easier to bend the rules a bit like this and have it still look good!!)

(learn rules b4 u break them or whatevah)
