I like to think that when the batfamily inevitably runs out of money and jobless Bruce, Tim, and Dick* find themselves in financial need, Steph reveals that she's made thousands of dollars taking odd jobs around Gotham City that we just never saw bc Steph hasn't been in a comic for months. Nobody checked in on her and while they weren't looking she made 6 grand babysitting and playing piano at a local theatre. Bruce has to grovel for enough money to buff out a scratch on the batmobile and Steph is revelling in it. This is the closest she's ever going to get to being a supervillain

*(Cass and Jason don't need money to survive on account of being homeless as kids + Babs funds Cass' basic needs and Damian is on his mom's payroll, same w/ duke even if it's obvs not al ghul money)

I listen to one of those Japanese for Beginners podcasts while running these days because my Korean teacher told me to get my heart rate up while practicing vocab to maximize my retention, and also because I hate myself.

Crowley Meratyn was the first person Halt traveled with since his departure from Dun Kilty. And sure, while the Ranger was a welcome relief and perhaps annoyingly cheerful distraction from the memories, it took him a while to feel at peace.

The first night, Crowley had suggested they sleep in shifts. And of course the Ranger had taken the first shift. Halt, of course, had demurred, not wanting to cause unrest, and he had indeed turned his back to his new companion, but he didn’t sleep.

He didn’t trust this Crowley, plain and simple. There was almost a glimmer of Ferris from their younger years. Back when the responsibilities of the throne had been a fleeting whisper, back when their parents had left them to the care of their nurses and tutors. Back when he could laugh and smile and not worry about the future. Ferris had been happy, then. And so had Halt.

And then over time, things had changed. His brother had kept the front everywhere else, but when they were alone, he was distant and cold. Halt knew himself to be a fool for not seeing it sooner, or perhaps he had simply been willing to turn a blind eye. After all, Ferris was his brother. His friend, his confidant. He would never betray his kingdom, let alone his own blood.

Halt had learned that lesson the hard way. And he was determined to catch Crowley’s facade the moment he saw one slip up. He would not be taken in this time.

He would not be betrayed a second time.

when you google something about the logistics of tipping for a service rendered in the US and the comments are filled with people saying ermm as a european I find the notion of tipping rather perplexing ☝️🤓 instead of actual answers to the question

Domestic bliss.

River has snacks and her own personal frozen water bottle, so she has no idea that we have no AC and it's 90F (32C) outside right now with wildfire smoke. She is comfy and living her best life!  Fingers crossed they can get the repair work done before the temps are back in the 90s later this week. 🌞🔥

Bunny care tip:  A frozen 16.9 oz (500mL) soda bottle filled to the top of the label, wrapped in paper towel and nestled in wood shavings on two sides for insulation will still be half frozen after 10 hours at 79F (26C).

Edit for more temp and frozen water bottle time:

A frozen 16.9 oz (500mL) soda bottle filled to the top of the label, wrapped in paper towel and nestled in wood shavings on two sides for insulation will be 60F (15.5C) completely melted but cool to the touch after 13 hours at 81F (27C).

let's not forget that it's not normal to have period cramps that:

• are so painful you have to stop what you're doing

• wake you up at night

• won't go away with painkillers

• are consistently awful, every single period

!!!!!!!!that's actually not normal💀🫶

i'm tired of being worried i'll get in trouble with my responsibilities for being in too much pain to function normally, around once a month🥲

a psa for people who don't realize 80% of people who experience periods have period cramps, and 5-10% of people who experience periods have cramps so bad that their day is disrupted

i think trees would look cute sized down to the size on the typical flower.

yes, it is because I wanna eat a tree too. I actually ate tree bark a lot as a kid. The sap tasted so good. So, I think eating a tree would be the next logical step in my cravings to munch.

Welcome back! I am loving this, TREES, TOO?

I don't know where you live but it's Spruce Tip season, buddy.

Go for a little nature walk and check for Spruce trees. The ends of the branches should be growing (I live pretty far north, our growing seasons may differ vastly) and when the sticky seed pod is easily removed from the ends or has fallen off, the soft, bright yellow/green ends are edible. AND TASTY. They taste citrusy, very bright with a hint of that earthy almost mintiness you get from the scent of Spruce. But you want them when they are still fairly small.

But yes, tiny full grown trees. Like natural little bonsai everywhere? Adorable! Nature's broccoli lol

Started playing Pathologic (Classic HD) last night because I find the near certainty of my failure relaxing (no expectations). Was shocked to find that I survived day one, despite wasting so much time on bullshit such as:

Trying to figure out how THE FUCK to take a weapon out and use it after equipping it (no it's not by pressing the sheathe button, no it's not by pressing the attack button, no it's not by using the inventory, but a secret fourth thing (press tab))

Murdering some guys who were chasing and attacking some woman (every time I killed one, I heard children crying, which I assume is the sound of my reputation suffering due to me murdering people)

Trying to recall which key opens which menu. No, there is not one master menu where I can see the different menus and get to them that way.

Trying for WAY TOO LONG to climb a ladder which is most likely unclimbable.

Deciding to play a platforming game inside Baby Vlad's secret lair for absolutely no reason except curiosity and then to look into the well (also for no reason).

CHASING DOWN and talking to EVERY FUCKING CHILD to see if they've got the LETHAL DRUGS they plan to consume as part of a "GAME" after being told confiscating them is the only way to protect them (according to some kid in a dog mask) only to discover that NONE OF THEM HAD ANY (even though some did before the quest started) and in fact the only way to complete the quest is to give a single sample (found in the house) to the quest giver. This annoyed me a bit, ngl.

Trying painted on doors and being fucking confused when certain characters didn't appear in the house I was told they'd be in, only to discover that I couldn't use the doors INSIDE the houses and instead had to LEAVE and go round looking for more doors OUTSIDE to access other rooms in the house and find other characters.

Trying to fill my empty bottles at a fountain only to start DRINKING THE WATER and watching helplessly as my exhaustion increases.

Climbing up stairways into literal nothingness simply to indulge my curiosity (and hear the sweet sweet sounds of children crying, as usual).

Most fences are marked on the map. Occasionally, they aren't and you will reach a dead end where you can SEE, even TOUCH the house you're looking for but have to search for a way around to reach the door (as your time trickles away and your exhaustion steadily rises).

Just standing there WAITING for Georgiy to let me examine the body in the evening, at the time he'd said I could (eleven o'clock). I even had a dialogue choice where I told him I'd get evidence from the body so I assumed I'd need to complete the examination with Rubin that night in order to complete the day's mission (and not die). Eventually, my exhaustion levels got super high and it was past 11 so I just went to bed and it was like, "GOOD JOB!" so I guess I was wrong. Apparently, if you get there at nine and speak to Rubin, that's all that's needed, I GUESS. Okay, this annoyed me a bit.

I also do a lot of very slow walking around looking at things (and trying to activate them) in games but, in spite of all this, I did manage to complete the first day and did not DIE so perhaps this game is more forgiving than I had thought (at least at first). I was fully convinced I was going to die when Katerina told me I had to solve the murder in the next few hours (each hour is FIVE MINUTES) or be DOOMED but it was fine. It gave me the fix I needed and I had a good time.

Will I go back and finish it? Maybe I will play a bit more but if it keeps giving me times and instructions and then completely disregarding them, I might get frustrated.

as always!!!! (more light-hearted post)
