SkepticalButOpenMinded, to comicstrips in [Alzwards Corner] EXCUSE ME?!

Everyone likes him because the storytelling is good, which proves my point: Race/gender swaps are fine when done right. But when Miles Morales was first introduced, it was considered a race swap, and the usual crowd definitely moaned about it.

The multiverse explanation reminds me of people saying “But the elves liked being slaves!” in Harry Potter. Yeah, they were written that way, and they could have been written another way. The multiverse is being used to narratively justify a black Puerto Rican Spider-Man.

Something reminded me of this story today, a story originating before everything became a computer accessory.

A satellite orbiting the Moon taking chemical photographs, developing them, scanning them, sending the images as an analog signal back to Earth.

Signals stored on magnetic tape.

Decades later, a team finding the tapes and the readers, getting the data from the signal, recreating the images in awesome detail.

It took me two days, but I finally found the ducks going down a slide.

Couldn't find the source, but had a memory of sharing them somewhere before so thought I'd look online.

Interestingly it's the first time that Google has utterly failed me, despite a very clear search, and DuckDuckGo/Bing got it as the first hit.

Anyhow. Found them. Ducks on a slide.

The video opens on a fabric tunnel (the kind small children crawl through) on grass. Five ducks run out of it to the left, then swing round and run off screen to the right. A young sheep dog(duck dog?) is whizzing around in the background. The video cuts to a low slide. The ducks appear at the top, slide down to splash in a tray of water, and run off to the right. There is a person standing by the slide with a stick. They are giving instructions to the sheep dog in training.
