Me: You know how when you were a kid and you’d wish that you’d get sick or injured in a way that would justify why you didn’t live up to your potential?
Everybody, apparently: No?

What finally put the nail in the coffin for me on the concept of "biblical inerrancy" was fully realizing how impossible it is for the meaning of any written piece of language to be consistent or even intelligible across times, places and cultures
I have sat through sermons about Jesus's teaching that you have to be "like a little child" to enter the kingdom of heaven that interpreted it as meaning, like, "innocence," or pure unquestioning belief like a child's belief in Santa Claus, but in college I took a 300-level course on Ancient Rome, and realized that being "like a little child" would have meant something totally different for a Roman or Roman-influenced society
The Romans were ridiculously hierarchical. Like, present-day American society is hierarchical but the Romans took it to the next level. Everything was all about your position on the totem pole relative to everyone else.
And children were at the bottom of the bottom. They were completely without legal rights, as in "the head of household can legally just kill his son and it's fine because he's the father."
that class made me realize just how much of the actual teachings of Jesus are centered on subverting social hierarchies, and just how intense they are about it. and this is no exception: it is a statement about upturning society so that the least valued people are most favored by God

"How do you write such realistic dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE ONE SAYING THE LINE. LIKE SANITY IS SLOWLY SLIPPING FROM BETWEEN MY FINGERS WITH EVERY MEASLY WORD THEY TYPE OUT. THAT IS HOW.

It's 2024 and there are still people who *checks notes* apparently hate Damian for sometimes being a prick who acts "disrespectful" towards other heroes including Bruce. You know, Bruce Wayne aka Batman, the grown-ass man who is often written as a prick who doesn't respect the people around him because he thinks he knows better than everyone else.
Who could have thought that the offspring of such a man might turn out to be just as stubborn and bad at social interactions as he is.

Justice League identity reveal where they don’t know who Batman is and one day a bunch of them walk in on him just casually eating yogurt in the cafeteria with his cowl off. A bunch of them recognize him, a couple don’t, and they’re all shocked.
Turns out Batman didn’t realize none of them knew who he was, since it had taken him all of ten minutes and three google searches to put everyone’s secret identities together and he just assumed they had all figured it out by this point. Or maybe he had meant to tell them and then just forgotten. Either way, he regularly interacts with half of them outside of hero stuff and hasn’t bothered with the whole separate persona thing with them in years. Shouldn’t they really have figured this out by now? So what if he forgot? This is clearly on them.
