The story of car bloat—the continually expanding size of the typical American automobile—is one of carmaker profit, shifting consumer preferences, and loophole-riddled auto regulations. It is also a story of hidden costs: to the planet, to taxpayers, and to the American families whose lives have been shattered by a crash that could have been avoided, or at least mitigated, with a smaller vehicle.

When some guy in this movie I'm watching set up a sniper rifle to take out a target, only to have more assassiny assassins show up to take HIM out...WITH A ROCKET LAUNCHER...
You have NO idea how much I wanted to someone make a joke referencing this Person of Interest meme.

Bruce is a overprotective and kind of strict parent, but he is very lax in some domains where other parents wouldn't. Here are some examples:
His kids stealing money from him. You will never catch Bruce Wayne lecturing his kids for taking his money. In the Arkhamverse, Jason steals 5 millions from Bruce's bank account to buy his army, and the problems for Bruce are: he didn't know it was Jason so it stressed him a bit, and Jason used it to buy an army.
Stealing from him in general. What is his is theirs. Unless it's dangerous. (Cars are death machines for his anxious self, which is why buying another batmobile for the young justice is not acceptable, or is kids taking it for a ride. He did made Redbird for Tim as a gift for when he got his license.)
Stealing from the cops (he has done it himself so many times)
Stealing money from rich people. In Knightfall, Bruce meets a British vigilante named Hood who steals from the rich to give to the poor, and Bruce had NO problems with that. He likes the young man. Stealing possessions is an issue tho. (Dick should follow his Robin Hood's dream, his father is fine with that)
Hacking into government facilities or anything really. Unless it's to harm an innocent civilian, like a classmate, he will not say anything. Hacking the FBI? Good. Hacking a russian mafia? Ok. As long as they do it safely and follow Barbara's instructions, it's fine.
Lying to him. Bruce is always impressed when he realizes one of his kids lied to him and he believed them. He's the Batman, after all, they have been able to fool the Batman. When he learns that Tim invented a fake uncle, he is proud of him and he tells him such, because he made the Batman believed it.
#bruce wayne#batman#batfam#dick grayson#jason todd#tim drake#damian wayne#cass cain#duke thomas#dc comics#my ramblings#bruce “what are you doing?” tim “hacking the pentagon” bruce “that's great sweetie”#my examples based in canon does not mean that canon always follow this logic it's my interpretation#I'm saying that before I get attacked#also as someone with an anxiety disorder: cars are death machines and I don’t trust half of the drivers on this earth

tsum events really are just the best, huh
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#tsumsted wonderland#to be fair this is from mal's card story so it's more...event-adjacent#i-it still counts right#poor malleus tsum is having such a time#first it blows up the kitchen and then it almost gets spin-cycle'd to tsum-death#the poor little guy just wanted to help with the party! it was trying its BEST 😭#and instead it accidentally recreated every other tuesday from my college days#i am so genuinely delighted to read two entire chapters of malleus bragging about knowing how to use household appliances#(he knows what he's doing! he READ the MANUAL)#(you know that manual has copious notes covering the margins in perfect copperplate)#and the callback to his dorm ssr story. perfect.#we all knew this was going to end in malleus punching a washing machine into smithereens#i'm disappointed that the next part is probably just going to be a fun party or whatever#and not malleus showing off how close he is to finally mastering the toaster#twst please where is my spinoff game where we have to help a dragon fae prince learn how to do household tasks#i have an indescribable need to see malleus attempt to use a vacuum#he is very enthusiastic and also very stupid and we love him for it

The art of violence
#how pretty is a splash of red in a world of white#how pretty is swift efficient movement even when done by machine#a fight for survival#a dance of death#the art of war#lyss art#my art#ultrakill#ultrakill v1#v1 ultrakill#i think about ultrakills world and how at this point machine has replaced humanity in a way#they have human blood#they have human survival#they have human thoughts#and so even their acts of violence can be human

Margays are small felines that spend most of their lives in the trees. Margays can rotate their ankles 180 degrees, allowing them to climb down trees headfirst. They have been observed jumping up to 12 feet horizontally and have been known to mimic the voices of infant monkeys so they can eat the parents.

The enshittification of the Internet is gaining momentum.
We're on our way back into the fifties and I really think we need a giant meteor at this point.

Don't want to insult this person but. Again. I literally live in Argentina.
#cosas mias#I didn't even talk about a revolution because that's a whole other topic to cover#I just said hey maybe start questioning your imperial death machine. maybe get a little angrier about it?#sorry you have bills to pay retirees here do too and they still confront the police on the street when needed#pongan un poco más de huevos

My Primo headcanon is 'chill old man who dreams of nothing but murder all day long.' Whenever he gets the urge to blow up the White House he puts that urge on a leaf and floats it downstream like his court-mandated therapist taught him to in 1996.
#if he hadn't been killed he would have rigged an elaborate rube-goldberg machine#to launch every nuke at the precise moment of his death#hatred like black ichor flows through his veins#but he will patiently teach you to play shuffleboard if you ask#the band ghost#shitghosting#papa primo#papa emeritus i#my art
