Let's play this game again
-
a benevolent authoritarian dictator has to die as well.
There's no such thing, so does the power just not work? Or does the least bad dictator die? If so, hell yeah!
-
It’s not. It’s predictable and pathetic. Typical reddit level stupidity.
It's funny if they are creative and actually engage with the power. But most just seem to be "you get cancer" type stuff, or just "your power only works in this one hyper specific and useless way"

I have wolverine level regeneration.
.... but you regenerate too much

You are invisible.

So super cancer?

Be able to transform into animals
But only indoors and you immediately shit in the floor.

Teleportation.
Every time you do it you shit your pants

With the snap of my fingers I can instantly cause the death of authoritarian dictators.
As someone who can command the end of other people's lives on a whim, you also qualify. Snapping your fingers ends your life too.

Then you're just a normal alien. The idea behind the kryptonite is that it weighs you down your whole life living on planet krypton -- when you finally are free of it, you're superpowered. Without kryptonite, there's no superman.

Incorrect. Any two walkable points on the earths surface relative to each other are for all practical intents and purposes static. The examples you gave earlier were relative to the earth's axis.
The earth is rotating bro. It is not static. that's literally why there are jets streams and prevailing wind patterns. If you could actually use a rotating body as a static reference frame, the stars in the sky would be spinning around your reference frame every 24 hours. Any star doesn't have to be very far away before it needs to move faster than the speed of light to complete it's rotation (which is not possible). Go spin a basketball. I promise you the 2 sides are moving in opposite directions from any reference frame that is not spinning (bc reference frames by definition are not spinning)

That works too but I was thinking you would grow six legs and eight arms, or a bit like Tetsuo in Akira.

The Earth is Rotating around an Axis.
If you take a pound of dirt and another pound of dirt and space them a few feet, or miles, or oceans apart, one of them doesn't randomly start vibrating and floating around the other, idiot.

But your peepee or boobies shrink by an inch or bra size each time you use it

I agree. Superheros are best when defined by what they CAN'T do.

I feel like that effect would be under a different power than regeneration, like shape shifting or something. Growing extra limbs would be unlikely unless you were already genetically rigged for it.

Cool I get my foreskin back.
And sell it a second time.

I can pause time in order to write as much code as I want without interruption.

If I shapeshift into another human, I’d just have their memories. Id have to shapeshift somewhere calm, and leave myself notes
Oh my god, Memento meets Animorphs.
Holy shit this is actually a good idea, I would actually read this book or watch this movie...
It could also work in a video game, but it would be very difficult to pull this off as the player character... could make for some extremely interesting NPCs in various settings.

it is extruded and harvested from your nipples
This is a superpower thst could be in the orgy scene in The Boys, rofl.
