#overthinking

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

Today's example of overthinking occurred when a tradesperson who is working on the house next door was sat in his van outside my house. Illogically, his presence stopped me from charging my phone (the socket is near the window) and from bringing the bins back in. This was because I didn't want him to think that I was spying on him (I wasn't!).

I would say that this made me a prisoner in my own home, but it was more of a case of being imprisoned by my own mind...again 🧠

Sonic in the Archie Comics and SatAM cartoon was the child of nobles, with his uncle being court scientist. He even became king in the Archieverse. Sonic in Underground was a literal prince.

These depictions have since been retconned of course. Still -- I wonder if there's something to be interpreted about like, cultural perceptions and human biases

When you consider Sonic, an avatar of teenage rebellion, was almost always written as a child of privilege when the western writers had free rein. Whereas Japanese Sonic (who became the canonical one) has been, from the word 'go', always a homeless drifter whose roots are unknown because they don't matter.

I'd even argue Movie Sonic fits the bill for 'child of privilege'.
He might not be royal/noble, but there were lots of people with eyes on his (innate) superpowers, which lead to him being cared for and trained in secret by Longclaw
