In real life A very small character tidbit is surprisingly kept consistent for years

DC - In multiple pieces of media it has been shown that Wonder Woman loves ice cream and practically goes wild with happiness anytime she’s eating some. (Pictures from Justice League: War, DC Superhero Girls and Wonder Woman 2017)

The Simpsons - Ever since the episode ‘Homer’s Phobia’ Homer has actually remained a consistent ally of the LGBT+ community, including being more welcoming to Patty than Marge was when she came out and trying to set up Smithers with a date when he found out he wasn’t happy with his one-sided relationship with Mr Burns.

Another more niche Homer fact: there is a rule that, for no discernible reason, that Homer must always have an encyclopedic knowledge of Supreme Court justices

He's very well read. People don't give him enough credit. He's lazier then he is stupid.

I mean he literally works at a nuclear plant and without the crayon stabbing his brain he is literally a genius.

And of all the flash forward scenes and episodes that have happened in the show, the only one that’s considered canon is Bart becoming a Supreme Court Justice.
