I need the jonjay divorce to keep being as messy as possible bc I need them to make comics interesting again. Jay has been so good for DC bc he has been unapologetically bitchy and untherapized and I think we should keep that going. he should tell Jon to kill himself

Thinking again about how Duke's backstory was a deliberate mirror to Bruce's, and was designed to play out the same way if Bruce had not intervened. In light of Bruce's heavy idolisation of Duke, I think Duke might represent the ultimate positive end goal of Batman - one less orphan in Gotham. I think part of why Bruce loves Duke is that for someone who came so close to losing his parents in the same way, Duke ends up so unlike him, a symbol of light & truth & community. It's not that Bruce thinks if his parents lived he could've been like Duke (because Bruce knows a lot of who Duke is is just who Duke is). BUT Bruce saves Duke's parents from death, preventing the Wayne tragedy from reoccurring, and then meets Duke again further down the line. And the Duke he sees is strong, good, stubborn, a hero. Someone shaped by his past but not controlled by it; someone who does not need a Batman. Duke is a symbol of Gotham's future - in many ways the best version, the ending Bruce has always dreamed of. And that's why Duke is SO important to Bruce forever & always!!

in the past 24 hours

IPC formally declared famine in Gaza

Israeli article shows internal IDF documents confirm at least 83% of Palestinian casualties are civilians, making the civilian to combatant casualty ratio equivalent only to that of genocides such as Rwanda or Srebrenica and taking it far outside former conflict ratios

Previous State Spox Matthew Miller admits Netanyahu told them the war would go on "for decades" and that he had known Israel was the primary obstacle to the ceasefire negotiations for the past two years, despite publicly blaming Hamas for not accepting ceasefires

these are all things that we already knew, things i have repeatedly fought with users here on, things that are being confirmed now that it matters less

Fourth World Week

Day 4 - Masks

When it comes to masks, I can't not think of Orion. My wish for him is to transcend the mask and in his heart accept his duality. He isn't merely one hidden behind the other. Instead, he is both. They equally make him who he is, and there is value in that.

Renee Montoya/Helena Bertinelli:

no propaganda submitted

Lightray/Orion:

They're best friends, they're soulmates, they'd do anything for each other, and their bond is like no others. There is so much love between them it's unbelievable and undeniable. Orion only smiles with Lightray, he has ever said "I love you" to Lightray, he's collapsed onto his knees at the sight of Lightray leaving, and Lightray has said he would do anything for Orion and his well being, and has searched worlds just to find and rescue him after others presumed him dead.

Orion lights up when he sees Lightray he loves him sm
