  • I’m not into comics, but I have read something about wolverine. The reason I avoid comics is exactly the same problem the MCU is facing: stories don’t really have an impact: theres an infinite number of universes they can write about, and even in the base timeline, they bring back dead heroes; what’s even the point?!

    I’ve read/watched some content from people that would be more knowledgeable about comics/DC/Marvel saying that that’s actually one of the issues comics have been facing: their audience loves X or Y character AS IS, and they don’t allow it to either develope beyond what has been written, or don’t want to see him/her retire/die…

    I don’t know if this is the true state of the industry, but watching the MCU struggle makes me believe it does: they brought back RDJ because they can’t think of a solution to the hole they dug themselves into.

    I doubt it’s 100% cornsarch. I work in the plastics industry and there’s all sorts of travesties going on. We also have a line of cornstarch-made products, but they’re all scams when it comes to “recycling” and “being biodegradable”.

    There’s definitely plastic in it.

    I find fun to learn Japanese. It’s the fourth language I study, and so far it’s been both different and intuitive, but I fear the moment where I need to go deeper into kanji, given the limitations you mention.

    It’s also a slower process than learning any major language, as it took us a few weeks to get to review their letters. Its been fulfilling so far, but I don’t know how invested one can be once you reach a certain point of increased complexity.
