Something for Everybody was an album title for both Devo and Elvis.

One day the local council where I am will own the local mall and find a way to ruin it.

Just reading that the local arts centre / theatre is under closure threat from the council too.

This reminds me of a scene from The Young Ones.

VYVYAN: The council's gonna tear the house down!

NEIL: That's no reason to hassle me on the toilet, maaaaan!

In all seriousness, though, I'm sorry to hear that, Thoth.

The arts centre is at the harbour, where the same council deliberately ran down a sports centre, so they could demolish it and sell the land for property development. Grrr.

If they could build a mobile flat in a pram, they'd sell off the babies. The decline in coal mining means that small children weren't bringing in as much money as before anyway.

Especially with the economy going digital, can't quite have small children ruining the tech businesses. though some of them seem to be led by large-sized children anyway (glances in the direction of a certain rich tech man whose tweets sound like a constant temper tantrum)

Well, they can be manipulative from the corner, where they have been sent as punishment.

Rumour has it that Lana Lang's Insect Queen career started off in the punishment corner, after failing to prove Clark was Superboy yet again.

This explains why Lana wasn't so distraught when her dad was about to spank her that one time. "Eh, I've had worse", thought Lana

I like the scene in the first Mordru story where Lana says to the disguised Tasmia, "It'll be nice to have a sister for a while."

Lana acquitted herself well in that story. I remember Mordru commenting that Lana had fire.

And of course, poor Lu's heartbreak over Kal

Yep.

But I forgive that instance because desperate times call for desperate measures.

The Whiteface in LSH 299-300, that's unforgivable. Pure fanwank.

Yeah, I tend to agree.

The earlier story was bad given that editorial had forced Shady from being black to blue, because DC Editorial.

The 300 situation did even need to happen at all.

TBH, I personally think that just because she was originally supposed to be black shouldn't mean she should somehow be considered a coded black character. Maybe it's because I'm a person of color who's not black.

I mean, in the decades since we've gotten Jacques, Danielle, April, Jazmin, and the biracial Jenni. No such luck for overt Latinx representation.
