I love how it’s “The Strange Case of Doctor Jekyll and MISTER Hyde” as in, yeah, they are basically two sides of the same person but only ONE has a doctorate
#unless your bitch ass second personality helped you write that thesis it is your fucking doctorate
One of my favorite tropes is “Villain Decay”. It’s not a redemption or reformation - the character themself doesn’t necessarily change morally or behaviorally, but the as the stakes become higher and more serious antagonists are introduced, the original villain seems harmless and friendly in comparison.
me: lmao donald trump can’t even get half the US population to support him
donald trump junior: look see my dads polled 50% in approval right now. this is all official. you don’t know what you’re talking about
two seconds later:
the funniest part is that even in a doctored infographic made by donald trump jr. he knew he would suspend reality too much if he went over a 50% approval
which is to say even in the trumps fantasy land they aren’t liked by the majority.
He couldn’t even do a good job photoshopping it, you can see the 41% because he made the cover shape on it partially transparent.
fyi “it’s just a joke” is a tired excuse. if it was a joke it’s meant to be funny, if it has a potential to hurt or alienate innocent people it’s a bad joke because it’s ruining the atmosphere.
here is a funny joke: i poison a cake with an ingredient only you are allergic to. u start crying & i say “well it’s just a cake! no need to cry about it. i just wanted everyone to eat this delicious cake but u ruined it. keep ur allergies to urself”
