A small victory considering DC Comics themselves are dead as disco.

This is also why we have that gay-ass Riverdale shit.

Some reviewers have criticized the series for its handling of minority characters. While reviewing the first season, Kadeen Griffiths of Bustle declared "the show marginalizes and ignores the [people of color] in the cast to the point where they may as well not be there."

.....

Furthermore, the show has received additional criticism regarding the queerbaiting of certain characters.

.....

The show has also faced backlash from the asexual community for its deliberate decision not to portray Jughead Jones as asexual, despite the character being identified this way in some of the comics, and despite being urged by Jughead actor Cole Sprouse to represent the character's asexuality.

Imagine how much more fully-realized Jughead would be if he where to constantly go around saying "Did you know I'm ace?"
They would probably complain that he comes across as more of an incel, though

In other news:

n 2016, Jughead's orientation was confirmed to be asexual in the stories of Chip Zdarsky (and later Ryan North and Mark Waid) for the Jughead comics as part of the New Riverdale line. Zdarsky said of his run on the book that "the next writer could make him discover girls or boys or both and that's totally fine. There have been iterations of Jughead over the decades where he HAS been interested in girls, so there's room to play around if someone was inclined.

...

The Jughead Zdarsky created is the only asexual version so far

"You're telling me that comic characters can have widely different personalities and sexual orientations depending on who's writing atm? Nonsense, I say! He has been ace once, thus he has to be ace forevermore! The ace community needs to be appeased!"

How sad must your life be that you get so riled up over a fictional character not being the same kind of incel-in-denial as you ?

A group of girls formed the UGAJ (United Girls Against Jughead) in an effort to get him interested in romance, using methods such as computers or food, though ultimately failing.

Should've used the Pussycats. I wouldn't push them out of bed

For his first forty years or so, Jughead often claimed girls were despicable, and even as late as the 1990s.

Jughead, the OG Supreme Gentleman ?

Some kind of monster short movies. Pretty good for low budget.

SCP is gay horror for autists.

You're just not sophisticated enough to appreciate the horror of being raped by a sinister doorknob.

[VoiceOfReasonPast]

SCP is just a gay creepypasta crossover for people who can't even make up their own creepypastas.
And does this short film include the transgender satellite?

[Kugelfisch]

SCP is also woke as fuck. You'll find dozens of transfaggot self-inserts.

[VoiceOfReasonPast]

Trump is a SCP now, guize

[Newhalf]

Aw this is some garbage. Though I feel SCP used to be good reads. Back in the day when only like, five of them existed.

Also: Orange SCP bad

And... theaters are dead.

Wonder Woman 2 is being released on HBO Max on Christmas. No extra fee, either, just be a subscriber. Disney BTFO.

Good fucking riddance, although I wonder how long it'll last. AMC's supposedly going bankrupt. Who'll buy them?
Wonder Wonder 1984 looks woke as hell, though.

All the theaters around here are showing old-ass movies plus a couple of low-budget new ones that wouldn't have made anything anyway. I'm tempted to start going again just to see some of that stuff on the big screen while I can. Living in an apartment there are only a couple of hours in the middle of the night when I can actually watch something without the nignogs below making noise.
