I wanted the option to give it the ability to escape and fly freely instead of destroying it to be the good ending. But now I'm worried that would be encouraging mental illness...

Just do what TNG did.

That's what Mass Effect did with the Shadow Broker from ME2, a Yahg with 8 eyes possessing "unrivaled perceptiveness and mental adaptability".

The yahg evolved to fill the niche of apex predator on Parnack. Yahg have four pairs of eyes, each pair designed to track and predict the movements of prey. A keen sensitivity to movement and light allows the yahg to easily read the body language of any species, making it almost impossible to lie to a yahg.

They don't play well with others, however.

When Parnack was discovered by Citadel Council surveyors in 2125 CE, the yahg were a pre-spaceflight civilization with technology equivalent to that of 20th century Earth. A Council delegation of ambassadors made first contact with the yahg and attempted to establish diplomatic relations. Unfortunately, the yahg perceived the ambassadors' attitudes and behavior as equal individuals instead of subordinates as a sign of contempt, and attacked and massacred the entire delegation. Immediately following that incident, the Citadel Council severed all contact with the yahg and declared Parnack off-limits. The Council maintains that the yahg's aggression and obsession with control make them poorly suited to integrate with the galactic community.

One of the many things I love about that film is how absurd it is for the protag driving what is basically a dinky human car when there are things bordering on interstellar spaceships in size right beside him, and still losing to him!

The whole point of clones is that they're nearly to completely identical, so big differences are interesting. If it were done well, which it obviously isn't (and, oh my, the fucking PAINT), it could be interesting.

A lot of older shows have done it quite well when addressing this. When Crichton gets duped in Farscape the two then play Rock-Paper-Scissors against each other and draw every. single. time. because everything about them is identical. So they can't even try to trick the other by drawing then doing what wouldn't be expected the next time because both of them end up doing it.

Neither Vorta or Jem'Hadar showed any signs of interest in others romantically because their entire method of reproducing was cloning so romance was redundant, Weyoun specifically mentions his shit eyesight is because the Founders decided the Vorta don't need it, which they don't. They're not soldiers, they don't need perfect vision for spotting things and shooting other things. They did have incredible hearing and a resilience to toxins which helped immeasurably in their role as diplomats. DS9 just had more sense than modern shows, and Trek, back then despite the inherent woke slant a lot of the episodes would still add such as the form Dax and Khan hosts meaning the lesbian kiss between Jadzia and Lenara.

Call the trooper 'Squeaks' and add squeaky shoe noises to complete the meme!

NGL disaster relief wasn't on my bingo card for what could start Civil War 2 but it does make a lot of sense given how desperate the people affected by it would be.

I really hope they went Horde and didn't put in anywhere near enough research to realise how many times almost every incarnation of the Horde has committed genocide or committed some kind of warcrime since invading Azeroth.

Genocide 1: OG Horde sacrificing countless Draenai, and even turning their bones into a road on Outland.

Genocide 4: Iron Horde doing the exact same thing in the WOD timeline despite being warned about the demons, so this time doing the exact same thing but by their own volition.

Genocide 2: First War attempting to wipe out the humans of Azeroth, and anything else they find, after invading the world and launching an unprovoked and surprise attack.

Genocide 3: Garrosh trying to wipe out all non orc, and goblin, life in MOP after creating the True Horde.

Genocide 5: Sylvanas burns down Teldrassil while it is still filled with civilians using what is essentially magic napalm.

There are also several other warcrimes/atrocities committed by the Horde over the years which regularly have "But Camp Taurajo" thrown back as a rebuttal, similar to how certain IRL groups keep trying to play the same victim card when then doing their own shit towards 109 countries numerous other groups.

I tried watching Supergirl and the first episode was all about her fee-feels of how unfair the perception of her was in the press and the general public. With obligatory feminist ''women have to work twice as hard for half the praise'' delusional bullshit. I didn't even finish the episode.

You're not missing much, most of the CW shows are that retarded. The later Superman and Lois Lane show set in franchise has Lois try to call out Clark for making more money than she does with the whole $1 to 69 cents of whatever it was. Completely ignoring the fact Lois has a Pulitzer to her name from before even meeting Clark. There's no way Lois and Clark are on the same payment grade despite Clark bringing in Superman stories.

"Brown skin. But her features don't fit any conventional classification. Not negroid or caucasian or oriental-- -- yet somehow, an amalgam of the rarest elements of them all. White hair, blue eyes-"

Storm's parents were very black, which just goes to show how retarded Storm's appearance is.

I literally just watched 'House and Garden' last night in my rewatch/actual full watch of the DCAU. Reading some of the trivia about that episode the wrtier was surprised at what Fox allowed to be included. Keep in mind this originally came out in 1994, 30 years ago, and was/is still a cartoon aimed at children.

Paul Dini has noted that Pamela's sterility was inspired by Denny O'Neil's "Poison Tomorrow." "I picked up on it," Dini remarked. "If her body rejects all infection or outside contamination, her body is a self-contained little hyper-immunity system, so she can't get pregnant." Paul feared that Fox may pull the plug on the episode due to this subject matter. "I thought Fox would never even let me hint at her sterility."

FEMA's response

That response apparently involves low flying helicopters over civilian collection points because FEMA isn't being allowed in to fuck things up and take stuff.

2 of the most important things to remember about internet spergs/4chan type anons are;

  1. Never forgive, never forget.

  2. Don't hurt the doggo.

The John Wick films take place specifically because of some young idiot fucking around and finding out by doing the latter and while released much later than GG the general anon attitude towards those that hurt animals has always been to go scorched earth on them.

I would rather watch lead based paint dry because that way I'd still probably have a fun time getting high on the fumes.

DC has done it too. Alan Scott, the JSA Green Lantern was written as gay in an alternate world story and then suddenly the main version was also gay.
