WAIT What Series Is This Cause I Remember Seeing This As A Kid And I NEED To Know What It Is

Some Podcasts as Welcome to Night Vale Quotes

Because I can. These are just the ones I could find quotes for, or that I’m subscribed to, so I may post an updated version later.

The Magnus Archives: There’s no cause for concern. We’re way past that now. If you’re not feeling mild terror then you haven’t been paying attention

The Penumbra Podcast (Junoverse): It is the good and the bad. It is the sound of the world. A world that will kill you, but also a world that will allow you to live

Wolf 359: I come to you live from under my desk, where I dragged my microphone and am currently hiding in the fetal position.

Archive 81: *static* *rising tones* *abrupt end of episode*

Eos 10: The Night Vale Medical Board announced today that they can’t help you. Not if you’re gonna keep screaming like that! They also asked that you clean up a bit before you come in. They don’t want to get sick!

Death by Dying: Death is only the end if you assume the story is about you

Stellar Firma: We have nothing to fear except ourselves. We are unholy, awful people. Fear ourselves with silence. Look down, look down, and forget what you’ve done.

Brimstone Valley Mall: There’s a special place in Hell. It’s really hip. Very exclusive.

Ars PARADOXICA: Time is weird. So is space. I hope ours match again someday

The Amelia Project: if you see something, say nothing and drink (cocoa) to forget

Startripper!!: Space tip: bring a sweater

The Orbiting Human Circus (of the air): I’m a single issue voter. If the candidate is not a baby polar bear, I straight up cannot vote for them.

every post attempting to find 'plural' subtext in ward is just another grim reminder of how few wildbow fans have read pact

When the prophecy was given your first thought was to action you thought of ways to prevent it to remove the child to get rid of them. But then you looked at your a wife and you realized, you couldn’t no matter what you couldn’t break her heart like that. So you turned to the soothsayer, blind and deaf, yet knowing, seeing, and hearing and said.

“Thank you. You may go.”

Then you began preparing

you're far from the first king to receive the prophecy that your new born child would cause your death. Where your story diverges is when instead of tossing the kid to the wolves, you are driven to be a kind & nurturing father.

Some people have been reading Pale and say the most recent chapter was homophobic. I don't agree, but there has been some discussion of that one bit.

i mean i kinda see it but eh

I had a talk with the guys at work about the sheer amount of superhero media available right now, and one of them came up with the idea of "Post-Marvel".

I like a lot of the MCU, but after all this time it's become repetitive. They give a somewhat grounded depiction, but it's still played pretty straight.

What draws me in now isn't superheroes played straight. It's superheroes deconstructed, new concepts explored, not the massive franchise-building heavyweights that have been around for decades.

Worm is set in a world where powers develop after traumatic experience. Naturally, there are way more villains than heroes, and the main character ends up becoming a villain just because she was that desperate for friends.

The Boys is a scathing critique of corporations and celebrity worship. The heroes work for money, so they get merchandising deals, ad campaigns, and good enough PR and Legal that they can literally get away with murder.

Invincible is more loving, but it doesn't shy away from showing how brutal things can get when superpowers are in the mix.

Dreadnought is a great book that shows a lot of nuance in the morals, and the sequel Sovereign is very vocal about how mainstream media rarely accept minorities unless its something they can catch a ride off.

I still love superheroes. I just want something besides Marvel.

I laughed way too hard at this

Woah

You’re the most recognised and internationally praised superhero, but you don’t fight any crime. Instead, you use your powers over stone and metal to repair the damage caused by the catastrophic fights other heroes get into.

does this count for another one?
