#and they’re at different stores

What does it say about me that my mom and my roommate each texted me a picture of a Christmas cat jumpsuit they found while shopping within the past hour and a half? And they’re almost identical

It was very startling to say the least. Apparently the Christmas cat jumpsuits made them both think of me for some reason. It’s just so weirdly specific. And why did it happen at the same time?

I just remembered they devoted a whole scene to Mike and Will burying a dead body for no reason other than to poke fun at—

Imagine being a killjoy lost in the desert and looking up and seeing giant fucking birds with ten foot wingspans circling above you and in your half insane state, delirious from dehydration, you don’t realize what they are, you just think of stories you’ve heard and the word ‘thunderbird’ escapes your parched lips like a prayer.

Hey this is weird to do on tumblr but I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel here so I’m going to cross post something that I’ve posted on Facebook and instagram:

Hi all,

As you may know my great aunt passed away last Wednesday and she had six cats that she loved dearly. As a small update, we were able to get the two cats with medical issues into a good shelter and we have four more cats to find good homes or a good shelter for. Now my record for shelters I’ve contacted and been advised that they are full (with some even telling me that we should just euthanize her cats which I won’t and can’t do) is creeping up towards the seventies and it’s becoming more and more apparent that our best bet are kind individuals with good homes that would like to adopt a cat(s). Even if you’re not in Florida you probably have a friend or a family member or a very kind neighbor who has been thinking about adopting a cat and this is a great time to do so! I’ve contacted their vet and have all their medical records and I’m here to talk to anyone that may be interested in them.

The cats:

Lily is a nine year old girl, she’s black and white and can be quite shy so she’s very good at hiding but she is a sweet cat (pictures one and two)

Okie dokie is an 8 year old boy, he’s black and white and very affectionate he can just be very timid (pictures three and four)

Palmer and tiger are a bonded pair of 7 year old brothers, obviously the important thing is that they all go to good homes but it would be especially ideal if these brothers could go together as they feel more comfortable eating when the other one is there, they are tabby cats and are very cuddly with people but can be pushy with more timid cats. (Pictures five and six)

Please feel free to reach out if you or someone you know is interested in adopting 💜

was talking to my mom about food and it seemed like we were on the same page so i said “yeah most of the dining halls at my school are categorized as school cafeterias in my brain which makes them contaminated so i don’t really eat a lot when i go to them” and she didn’t seem to really get that

So I’ve seen people bring up “Tim insists Steph pay for soda when they save a store” as a class discrepancy thing between Tim & Steph, but as we’ve discussed before Steph’s family is firmly middle class, and Tim’s, at the time this issue takes place, is monied but still closer to the Browns than to the Waynes. So what’s actually going on in this scene?

I think it’s about entitlement, family influence, and Stephanie’s ongoing struggle with wanting to not be like her dad.

For background, during the Quake, Spoiler had a team-up with Huntress to save people and stop robberies at a shopping mall. During this, Huntress is clear that she’s willing to kill right now (and that previously she’d reserve lethal force for worse situations). Steph sees her dad has escaped jail and is one of the robbers. Though Steph herself tried to kill Arthur Brown in her intro, she has had more vigilante experience since then, and is disturbed by the idea of Huntress killing Arthur, so she pretends not to see him and lets him get away.

Also notable, Arthur Brown did not become Cluemaster because he needed money to survive. He’s an ex game show host with disdain for others who feels entitled to wealth and attention. Helena Bertinelli, Huntress, was born to a mafia family and is now fighting against the mafia.

This Robin issue, #56, starts with Arthur now running a small crime-school, using his costumed criminal experience to teach other people how to most effectively rob banks and such. So the readers are primed to think of him.

This story takes place in the suburbs outside Gotham, which a lot of people have fled to after the Quake. The situation is rough, but it’s not an actual post-apocalyse survival zone like the island city itself.

Robin & Spoiler stop some people from robbing a convenience store. And we get these moments:

Steph: /reaching into a fridge, hand on a soda/ “Zesti?” Tim: “Sure.” Steph: “Almost getting killed makes me thirsty.” Tim: /opening the can/ “This is your treat?” Steph: “That’s a trick question, right? I mean, what’s a couple of sodas? We saved the whole store.” Tim: “It starts like that, and soon you’re bending all the rules.” Steph: /slapping cash on the counter by the till/ “Oh-kaaay!”

Steph: “Look, I’d like to say I was joking back there but—” Tim: “Forget it, Steph. It happens.” Steph: “I keep thinking of the Huntress. She’s like—- crazed.” Tim: “I’ve seen her like that. I’m afraid there’s no coming back for her this time.” Steph: “She told me her whole family is crooked.”

And that’s the end of the conversation as Tim drops Steph off at home.

Character-wise I think this is about Steph trying to Not Be Her Dad, and on a more philosophical side, it’s asking the reader “When are you entitled to something?"

Okay not to like wander into all the fanon vs canon discourse… but I do think it’s maybe a good reminder that some folks would probably love to get into the comics but they’re not anywhere near as accessible as fanfics are. Fics are free and also not a hassle to read on a phone whereas comics can cost a decent chunk of money if you’re trying to get a whole run or especially multiple runs and can be annoying and frustrating to read on a phone
