Hellboy is a fictional superhero created by writer-artist Mike Mignola. The character first appeared in San Diego Comic-Con Comics #2 (August 1993), and has since appeared in various eponymous miniseries, one-shots and intercompany crossovers. The character has been adapted into three live-action feature films – two starring Ron Perlman in 2004 and 2008 in the title role, and one in 2019 which starred David Harbour, as well as two straight-to-DVD animated films, again starring Perlman, and three video games – Asylum Seeker, The Science of Evil, and as a playable character in Injustice 2.
A well-meaning half-Demon (or Cambion) whose true name is Anung Un Rama (“and upon his brow is set a crown of flame”), Hellboy was summoned from Hell to Earth as a baby by Nazi occultists (spawning his hatred for the Third Reich). He appeared in the ruins of an old church in the Outer Hebrides in front of a team assembled by the Allied Forces; among them, Professor Trevor Bruttenholm, who formed the United States Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.). In time, Hellboy grew to be a large, muscular, red-skinned ape-like man with a tail, horns (which he files off, leaving behind circular stumps on his forehead that resemble goggles), cloven hooves, and an oversized right hand made of stone (the “Right Hand of Doom”). He has been described as smelling of dry-roasted peanuts. Although a bit gruff, he shows none of the malevolence thought to be intrinsic to classical demons and has an ironic sense of humor. This is said to be because of his upbringing under Professor Bruttenholm, who raised him as a normal boy.
Hellboy works for the B.P.R.D., an international non-governmental agency, and for himself against dark forces including Nazis and witches, in a series of tales that have their roots in folklore, pulp magazines, vintage adventure, Lovecraftian horror and horror fiction. In earlier stories, he is identified as the “World’s Greatest Paranormal Investigator”. Hellboy is noted for his positive relationship with cats.

Remember nerds just like in the old site, no current struggle session discussion here on the new general megathread, i will ban you from the comm and remove your comment, have a good day/night :meow-coffee:
First.
I really like Hellboy. He’s just some working class dude who really likes people and really dislikes when people get hurt, and Nazis. He goes around helping people using the power of folklore and violence.
ok i pull up

I AM THE MOST ANGRY I HAVE EVER BEEN
Something happened to the corgi while we were out, and one of her nails got ripped up from its bed. It’s not a HUGE deal, but there was a lot of blood. I can’t afford to take her to the vet so I;ve been DIYing it with lots of aloe, peroxide, bandages, and all that.
When I got her home in order to do that, my fucking ex just kept sitting on the couch and watching TV. Didn’t even offer to help.
How did I spend 5 years with such a trash fucking person? I’ve also been noticing that she’ll only walk ‘her dog’ unless its necessary that she walks the corgi to.
Fucking goddamnit she gets the wall I don’t care how this looks I dont care how unhinged this seems, you do NOT FUCKING TREAT MY CORGI THAT WAY I DONT GIVE A FUCK WHO YOU ARE I WILL DIE FOR HER
Oh and there was blood right next to her on the couch from the zoomies and I WAS THE ONE WHO FUCKING CLEANED IT UP WHILE SHE FUCKING SAT THERE
That’s cool, but where’s my review?
Seriously though wtf, I can never understand people who just blow off the suffering of animals like that. When I first moved into this place I picked up my cat and he got scared, jumped out of my arms, and landed on a vacuum cleaner, tearing out one of his nails. When I noticed the blood I started freaking out super hard because I knew that him bleeding out was a possibility so I immediately rushed to find out how to bind his wound at 3am. My poor bab
Didn’t want to say this in the Palestine thread going on because it doesn’t really seem to fit at the moment.
Once I heard what was happening, one thing that flashed through my mind was when AOC was fucking crying over her decision to go ahead and vote for giving Israel more military tech or whatever.
I am so over these social fascists who pose as leftists in the US. Bernie, AOC, all of them. They need to all just fuck off. The left in the US isn’t useless at all, I really believe that. But anyone on the “left” who supports imperialism is actively harmful to human progress. They are our enemies.
The principal contradiction in our world right now is the one between the imperial core and periphery. Anyone who wants to resolve this contradiction in favor of the imperialists is not someone we should align with in any capacity.
(DSA is a tough one since the IC is very based but the party leadership wants to avoid taking a stand on BDS so idk)
First - Meme for the weekend
Teacher: “Can someone tell me who John Brown was?”
Me: stands up “John was John the Baptist for the Christ we are to see”
Teacher: “Yes, that is one of the verses from John Brow-”
Me: gives a military salute towards the direction of Upstate New York “Christ to who the bondsmen shall the liberator be”
Teacher: “You can sit down now”
Me: Starts choking back tears “AND SOON THROUGHOUT THE SUNNY SOUTH THE SLAVES WILL ALL BE FREE”
Teacher: “Mr. Chungus, do you need to go to the nurse’s office?”
Me: Starts sobbing nigh incoherently
“BUT HIS SOUL GOES MARCHING ON”
the nurses office https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dH-yciPU7GY
This is true, I went into the Nurse’s office right after that sailor guy was in there
the gunshot reveal gets me every time
gender segregated schools are misogyny it doesn’t matter if they are (binary) trans affirming. fuck you morehouse.
There’s evidence it helps boys do marginally better at schoolwork. But becoming a weirdo when dealing with half of the world’s population has to be the biggest, dumbest tradeoff on earth
yeah like morehouse men are famously WEIRD around women. like the whole school is frat bro-y. they will kick out a trans woman regardless of how close to graduation. like its like… trans affirming misogyny. and yeah im non binary so where does that leave me? its so dumb.
you know what it tells me when someone on here accuses me of being white? that they have no fucking appreciation for English literature!!! read shakespeare you fuck.
i dont have to , i ve been to stratford upon avon…
this is where he was unleashed upon poor pupils
this where the fucker went to school, one of the last generations of pupils spered from him , must have been blessed (all the other pupils at that time those in there spcificly not.
this where they play shakspear all day everyday until , until eternity i guess not that we stayed to test it…
rest of the day is then actually quiet nice.
that sounds so cool!!

Counter point: Shakespeare was a hack.
god the worst thing about the internet is that people would NEVER have the audacity to say this shit in real life.
not me, i made fun of a white person at a bagel store for laughing at a worker getting frustrated just yesterday. i will get u
i also made them wait extra long in line bc fuck you spoiled mfer
good work!
audacity goes down as the chance of being punched in the face goes up
Bring back public ass kickings I’ve been saying it for years

May the spirit of Saint Brown and Allah bless all of Palestine this eventful day in their valiant struggle for freedom
Close friend asked me to play a few rounds of street fighter with him last night. He ragequit and logged off without a word and now I’ve spent all day wondering if he’s in a funk or if I did something wrong.
Don’t ragequit on your friends people
Im fucking sick of western liberals telling colonised people that they’re only allowed to liberate themselves in the correct way. You have to be civil in your rebellion. Even when they support violence, as some radlibs actually do when it comes to Palestine or BLM, you have to do violence in the right, civil, marketable way that makes it easy for them to support you. Palestinians can’t attack towns, they have to attack military targets, even though every Israeli settlement is a colonial one. Black people can’t attack businesses, they have to attack police.
To liberals, self defence only applies in the most literal circumstances, when a peaceful protestor is attacked by a violent cop or whatever. You aren’t allowed to defend yourself against imprisonment, dispossesion, colonisation or any act that doesn’t look violent. Punching someone is violent, but being forcefully evicted, locking basic human rights behind paywalls that are protected by police, security and military - that’s all peaceful, according to liberals.

Fuck you. If you like linux fuck you. I hated windows 10 too so I installed linux. Now I can’t even make my internal hard drive mount.

I just want to play the one goddamn game that works on this shit and watch anime from 15 years ago I pirated 2 years ago. I am already drunk fuck you I will not read.
I am already drunk fuck you I will not read.
Don’t think that’s the best headspace to be in before installing a new OS

Relatable. I spent like 20 hours trying to install Linux one time and got extremely angry because it wouldn’t boot. Turned out the drive type wasn’t bootable on my motherboard (unrelated to the software)

Amber will substitute for Matt on the next Chapo episode
she will drop a take on the war in
that is mildly racist against both Jews and Palestinians
Amber.
Germany is so vehemently pro-Israel, I feel very jaded looking at twitter rn. It feels so futile. People will just believe whatever they want, regardless of moral consistency. Everything to reinforce existing power structures. Israel can do no wrong because our government tells us they’re on our side. Countries that are not on our side, on the other hand, can do no good. No further thought required.
What’s the fucking point, man. What do you even say to people who just fundamentally don’t care about reality? Whose world view doesn’t go deeper than Team A and Team B?
The closest thing you can get to bringing them in person to Palestine is documentaries
