people think political staffers don't listen to their voicemails and read the emails that they send to their elected officials, and let me assure you that we absolutely do. we just don't always respond to them immediately (or at all) for a variety of reasons. a not-insignificant part of my job is just attempting to clear the never-cleared email inbox throughout the day
that said, form emails (where you just attach your name to a pre-written email, usually on a 'take action' webpage that sends it for you)? stop sending those, for the love of god. we all write email rules and send those directly to a 'form email' folder and the only thing we note after getting the first one is 'constituent/non-constituent supports/opposes this bill or nomination'. Please send something that indicates you are an actual human being with a real opinion, I am begging you all

I loved Taylor’s run. Were there things I didn’t like? Sure. But that’s with every run. (I started reading Nightwing with Chuck at the age of 10. There was a bunch of issue readers suffered through with 1996 run.)
But I loved the character dynamics, and I felt some of the run - like the fight with Blockbuster - was trying to fix the crap that went down in the 1996 run. I liked that, actually. It worked for me, and I’m sad that it’s over.
Tumblr media
I can totally understand why people don't like Taylor's run, but, honestly? I love it so much.
Tumblr media
I especially like the relationship between the batfamily (more of Bruce and Dick).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"My son isn't knocked down"
Tumblr media
"I can understand and forgive whatever comes next".
I don't know if you are aware of the weight that that phrase has, not only the confidence Bruce has in Dick's judgment, but the absolute love he feels for him is also there, implicit in the phrase.

Aren’t the spiders huge? Like - the size of my head huge?
when i went to alaska last summer, at all the parks and nature reserves and stuff there they of course had safety warnings about the wildlife.
for bears, the safety warnings were like, make noise, wave your arms, talk in a normal speaking voice, stay calm, don’t run, wait for the bear to move on which it will do 99% of the time, and you will be ok! 👍
for moose, the safety warnings were like. RUN.

…I think you have New Jersey confused with some place else. The state freaking rocks, man.
There is a reason the Batfam lives in New Jersey.
Tumblr media
"Oh, Damian was such an asshole" "The bats tried to integrate him he's just ungrateful!" "He had no reason to be as rough or rude as he was"
If I was raised as a prince and suddenly got sent away to the most corrupt, dangerous, and disgusting city in bumfuck New Jersey, I would be worse. The fact that he didn't burn that bitch down makes him a better man than I could ever be
If anything, he didn't crash out enough

Bumfuck New Jersey? Bumfuck refers to the rural areas of New Jersey. Sussex County, Warren, rural areas of central New Jersey (which does not exist, actually), Pine Barrens, etc.
Gotham, Newark, Jersey City, Clifton, Atlantic City - those are not bumfuck areas.
…unless you are saying Atlantic City is Gotham. Then I may be able to get behind bumfuck. It had a casino by a certain president.

Male Graphic Designer: Which video is it? Do we remember?
Me: I think it’s this one. [Reads name.]
Designer: Nope. I didn’t do that one.
Male Boss: Maybe it’s [name.]
Not that one either.
Me: I’m going to put a link in the chat. Check this one out.
Designer and Boss ignore it.
Me: Boss, I just sent you a slack. Check it out.
A few minutes later…
Designer: Is it this one?
Me: The video I sent around earlier?
Boss: I checked the link. It had been deleted.
Me: [checks link in incognito mode. It’s still there.]
And that is how Trump was elected over a competent woman, folks.
