  • I think the bigger concern nobody is addressing is the physics. Yes, while able to throw whatever into space, the initial thrust would place any object under stresses that they are currently not able to withstand. Nothing alive would likely survive the amount of G’s from the thrust. The amount of acceleration placed into a stationary object would likely liquify anything solid. I don’t think they would use his powers for this as it would likely kill anyone and destroy anything else. If he himself is flying it up at a reasonable rate if acceleration, he would likely be able to charge millions, even if cutting the budget in half it’s probably the best thing anybody could hope for, so millions of dollars per event isn’t unreasonable. But him being a superhero, he’d likely donate his earnings to charities or something. Which is noble but also tragic that he has to sacrifice his physical strength for a society that doesn’t praise selflessness. But I think that’s going beyond the scope of the original question

    I mean, accepting you’re aging with grace is way better than publicly displaying you’re actively fighting a losing battle. We have not made strides so great with medical procedures that you can’t tell you’ve had alterations done. Get enough of them and you look like a lizard person. She absolutely owned her beauty when it was external, now is the time to show the character behind the skin is worth knowing. She’s doing that with statements like this imo. But I don’t know if that’s worth anything.
