i feel like ppl who are against kids transitioning don’t understand the degree to which pediatrics are fine with medical intervention for kids. like really? this is where you draw the line?
We as artists and writers like having sources for stuff, right? And we like giving credit to other artists for their work, right? Well, I've compiled a collection of resources I've personally used and thoroughly believe would benefit others.

tell me more about miguel and how they did him dirty
Miguel O'Hara aka Spider-Man 2099 was a part of the 90s Marvel effort to create future and edgy heroes for the 1990s. There were heroes like Doctor Strange 2099 and Hulk 2099, but Spider-Man 2099 is the only one who kept any real interest past the 1990s.
His origin comics were the first three issues of his 1992 run. We open with Spider-Man of the future! He's cool, in a black and red suit (yes the inking just looks off, it was originally black and red.) In the year 2099, Alchemax, the company everyone remembers from Into the Spiderverse, owns nearly everything. Including the cops. The police are no longer state owned, but instead owned directly by the corporation itself. It's also implied very early on that the US government in 2099 is ALSO owned by Alchemax.
Pictured above is Miguel O'Hara.
Lyla, Miguel's holo-agent (who he did NOT make but that's the least of our Spiderverse woes at this point) plays messages for him. It's quickly understood Miguel doesn't communicate, likes to isolate and ignores his problems until he HAS to deal with them.
We find out later in the comic that this man, Tyler Stone, has seemingly drugged Miguel with a drug called Rapture, an incredibly addictive future drug that binds to your DNA and it's impossible to lose the addiction. Tyler drugs Miguel because after all of the really awful scientific experiments and inhumane things Tyler's made Miguel do at Alchemax, Miguel decided to quit. But Stone doesn't want Miguel to leave the company, so he drugs him.
Later, muuuuch later, we find out this guy is his biological dad.
Pretty awful stuff.
This guy is Gabriel O'Hara, Miguel's half-brother. He doesn't trust Alchemax or any of the genetic experimentation they've got going on. He knows his brother is involved, and he doesn't want his brother involved anymore. It's interesting to note that Gabriel, after telling his brother how disappointed he is in him, says he still loves him. But Miguel doesn't want to hear that (super well-adjusted not depressed man here, you see) and turns it off.
Miguel in the comics is a geneticist and studies biology. He famously doesn't do well with technology. And so what solution does he find to his drug problem? Biology.
(You can see how saying he's an unnatural Spider is going to start being a problem. At least, depending on what your definition of the word "natural" is.)
In the comic, we flashback a bit to pre-Spider-Man 2099 times to figure out exactly how Miguel got like this.
Miguel is the head of the Genetics Division of Alchemax and isn't exactly the most popular guy around (he's very self-entitled and self-assured). The entire purpose of their project is to recreate Spider-Man in the year 2099, to become the perfect lapdog to Alchemax to keep the city in "order."
Miguel O'Hara at this point is pretty much the worst of the worst, tbh.
Sure, Miguel wants to genetically recreate Spider-Man. But they aren't ready for human subjects, and Tyler Stone and his co-worker Aaron Delgato (actually kind of important for later) push ahead on the project. Long story short, their test subject dies and Miguel quits.
Tyler doesn't like that so he drugs him.
Miguel doesn't want to be addicted to Rapture the rest of his life, or at Tyler Stone's mercy either, so he decides to try to rewrite his genetic code to get rid of the Rapture addiction.
Delgato, who hates Miguel, was also still in the lab, and decided to rewrite his DNA even further to put him as half a spider. His intention was to kill him, but Miguel survives and becomes genetically half-man, half-spider.
Across the Spider-Verse seems to directly go against this both with whatever drug Miguel is injecting into his system and the fact they say he cannot shot organic webs, but instead tech-based ones. This would lead us to assume his talons and fangs are also a result of his "Spider" potion.
When in reality, Miguel now permanently has fangs, and has to mumble whenever he talks to loved ones. He CAN retract his talons, but only if he's actively thinking about it. He shoots organic web out of the top of his wrists. Those fangs? He can paralyze people with them, just like a spider bite could.
So with more and more confirmation that this adaptation of Miguel is not "really" a spider, it shows how little time they took to look in his comics.
It's concerning as well because it seems as if the only backstory they want for him is the made-for-the-movie daughter, and not his brother (pictured above), his mother or even Dana or Xina, two of his love interests/childhood best friend in Xina's case. It shows us that there many not have been any research into the character besides seeing that he can be a "scary" adversary to Miles.
I'm also going to link a previous post I made about Miguel and Gabriel's home life and domestic abuse that directly impacts how Miguel interacts in his world, and probably how he engages with the other Spiders. If it was at all discussed.
Headcanon that when Peter accidentally calls Tony dad for the first time, he immediately freaks out over his slip-up (as usual) but Tony is running on like -20 hours of sleep and doesn’t even notice the mistake but he responds to it so suddenly Peter spirals into ANOTHER crisis because does that mean Tony thinks of Peter as his son, or did he just not hear him right? And now he doesn’t know how to bring it up without outing the fact that he wants Mr. Stark to be his dad
Peter: “Hey, dad?”
Peter, internally: Wait, shit shit! Why did I say that? I can’t call Mr. Stark DAD. That’s so creepy-
Tony, dead on his feet and hearing colors: “Yeah, Pete?”
Peter:
Peter, tearing up: “Um-”
Honestly, with all the tradwife cooking trash circulating, it only makes me love B Dylan Hollis more for baking vintage recipes while being openly gay, making sexual jokes, and screaming at the ingredients. He's the antithesis of every soft-spoken cishet woman cooking for her husband and children. You don't have to be an idyllic cottagecore housewife to cook.
Woooo!! I dunno who to tag so If you see this, you should do it!!! ;)
Come make fake ids with me so we can break into the facility

“simon riley’s dead,” ghost chokes out; bitter resentment coating his tongue. “i’m just wearin’ ‘is corpse.”
mactavish doesn’t shy from his venom; sees through his hiss and doesn’t fear his rotten-fanged bite. he reaches out, pressing the flat of his hand to his breast and ghost damns himself for the way his breath catches; for the way his shoulders curl in around it in a silent plea for it to stay.
“that’s no drum in your chest,” he whispers defiantly.
his hand slowly drags over his chest, coming to rest over his sternum and he feels its possession like a brand against his skin.
“it ain’t bellows inflating your lungs,” he dares and he involuntarily inhales; his body longing to rise to his challenge.
mactavish pushes and he rocks back on his heels just to sway in closer; just to beg for the pressure to chase the phantom weight of six feet of dirt from his bones.
“you’re far from rigor mortis, riley,” he promises and there’s air at ghost’s back instead of decaying wood and infested flesh. “i won’t let the earth take you from me yet.”

I loved this post just because all the comments flipped between sincere appreciation and mockery of the birds
As Elon Musk cements his place in history as a fascist tech overlord and the rest of the world looks at us in horror, I really do want to reiterate what I feel will be lost to the history books
Nearly everyone in america has thought and continues to think that Elon is very cringe.
