#android settings to change

[brandinotbroke]

week 2???? 3???? of using an android after 8 years of apple and holy shit i don't think i will ever go back to iOS

this is a very freeing experience lol

[sunshinetrinket]

trying to solve any tech problem on a computer is like the hardest task in the world and everywhere you look people are saying the same 3 things that you obviously have already done

[insecateur]

I don't own the Pokéspe volume myself, so I can't check it, sorry 😖 I saw it online, they say Lysandre's still breathing but his spinal cord is damaged: tumblr(.)com/bhrjr/677461655177854976/well-heres-all-the-additions-for-pokespe-volume

ohh, interesting!! thank you for sending it to me!! i guess it has to be very recent, then... i wonder if they'll reprint the translated volumes...

but yeah, in the original version, malva is shown as being basically unconscious but okay on the next page (which, as i've said, makes no sense to me, because she's literally shown as bleeding from the head on the page where she's laying on the rocks with lysandre!! but heh. it's fiction i guess, it doesn't have to make sense) i guess you could interpret it as them collecting her body... but she still looks like she's suffered way less damage than she should have imo... (idk why i'm arguing so hard for malva to be dead . i love malva and i'm glad she's fine for the record . i just think it's a littol silly)

i... honestly kind of hate this more than him just straight up dying and it never being brought up again LOL, like especially with malva's dialogue about him and his newly disabled state being a "punishment" more or less i'm just. hmm. i mean i suppose it tracks with the rest. if they do reprint the volumes i'll probably try to get my hands on them anyway...

[anarchofairy]

my body is so deeply frustrating like why won’t you move the way i want you to move? why won’t you work like you were created to work? why can’t you talk to me in a language i can understand?

[direful]

wish it was not suuuuuch a pain in the ass to retheme my stupid phone

[sag-dab-sar]

Medical devices should not require an iOS or Android app to work. It took me twelve fucking minutes to set up and get my phone to connect to my migraine treatment device, 12 minutes during a horrendous migraine and I had to fight with my phone to get it to work instead of pressing a fucking button on the device. It might need a small controller to change strength but thats not fucking difficult to add.

Relying on a phone is bullshit: what if I'm out of battery? what if bluetooth is broken or something? what if I'm in too much pain to get the treatment app to work defeating the purpose? What if I'm paranoid about privacy so chose a non iOS/Android phone? What if I have issues with smartphones so use a classic cell phone? I know people that require that.

Requiring a disabled person to have iOS/Android in order for treatment to work is an unnecessary and borderline discriminatory practice.

The Hidden Dangers of Carrying an Android Device Everywhere

In today's digital age, it's nearly impossible to go a day without using a smartphone. And for many people, that device is an android - the popular alternative to the apple iPhone. But while we may love the convenience and endless features of our androids, there is a dark side to carrying this device with us everywhere we go. In fact, it's no exaggeration to say that androids are essentially massive tracking devices, constantly collecting and sharing our personal information. And the more we rely on these devices, the more vulnerable we become to the hidden dangers they pose.

Understanding the Tracking Features of an Android Device

In today's digital world, our android devices have become an extension of ourselves. We rely on them for communication, entertainment, and accessing information at our fingertips. But what many people may not realize is that our androids are constantly collecting and sharing our personal information, turning them into massive tracking devices.

Android devices have a multitude of tracking features that allow them to monitor our every move. From GPS location tracking to monitoring app usage and even tracking our search history, our androids have the capability to gather an extensive amount of data about us. This information is then often shared with various third-party apps, advertisers, and even the device manufacturers themselves.

By understanding the tracking features of our android devices, we can become more aware of the extent to which our personal information is being collected and shared. This knowledge empowers us to make informed decisions about our privacy and take necessary steps to protect our information.

It's important to note that while some tracking features can be disabled through privacy settings, not all of them can be completely turned off. Android devices are designed to gather data to enhance user experiences and provide personalized services, but it's crucial to weigh the benefits against the risks involved. In the next sections, we will explore the potential risks of location data sharing and the ways our personal information can be exploited. Stay tuned to learn how you can safeguard your information and make informed decisions about the tracking features of your android device.

The Risks Involved with Location Data Sharing

Our android devices are constantly collecting and sharing our location data, and this can pose several risks to our privacy and security. One major risk is that this data can be accessed by third-party apps and advertisers who may use it for targeted advertising or even sell it to other companies. This means that our every move is being tracked and analyzed, allowing companies to create detailed profiles of our habits, preferences, and behaviors.

But it doesn't stop there. Location data can also be used to track our movements in real-time, which can be a serious safety concern. If this information falls into the wrong hands, it can be used to stalk or harm individuals. Additionally, if a hacker gains access to our location data, they could potentially know when we are away from home, making our homes vulnerable to burglary.

Another risk of location data sharing is the potential for government surveillance. It's no secret that governments have the ability to track individuals using their smartphones. While this may be for national security purposes, it also raises concerns about the erosion of privacy rights and the potential for abuse of power.

To mitigate these risks, it's important to be aware of the permissions we grant to apps and regularly review our privacy settings. We can also consider using a virtual private network (VPN) to encrypt our internet connection and protect our location data. Being mindful of the risks involved with location data sharing is the first step towards safeguarding our privacy and security in the digital age.

Ways Your Personal Information Can Be Exploited

In today's digital age, personal information has become a valuable currency. Unfortunately, our android devices are prime targets for exploitation. The data collected by our smartphones can be used in a variety of ways to manipulate and harm us.

One way our personal information can be exploited is through identity theft. With access to our android device, hackers can obtain sensitive data such as our social security number, credit card information, and passwords. This information can then be used to impersonate us and commit fraud, leading to financial loss and damaged credit.

Additionally, our personal information can be sold to advertisers and marketers who use it to bombard us with targeted advertisements. Have you ever searched for a product online and suddenly started seeing ads for it everywhere? That's not a coincidence. Advertisers use our data to create personalized ads that are difficult to resist, leading us to make purchases we may not have otherwise made.

Another way our personal information can be exploited is through blackmail and extortion. If a hacker gains access to compromising photos or messages stored on our android device, they may threaten to expose them unless we comply with their demands. This can be a devastating experience, leading to emotional distress and reputational damage.

It's also important to be aware that our personal information can be used to manipulate our opinions and behaviors. Advertisers and political campaigns can analyze our data to tailor their messages and influence our decisions. This manipulation of information can erode our autonomy and shape our beliefs without our knowledge or consent.

To protect ourselves from the exploitation of our personal information, it's crucial to take steps to enhance our digital security. This includes using strong, unique passwords, regularly updating our software, and being cautious about the permissions we grant to apps. We should also educate ourselves about common phishing and scam techniques to avoid falling victim to these tactics.

Privacy Settings and How to Safeguard Your Information

As we've learned, our android devices are constantly collecting and sharing our personal information. But there are steps we can take to safeguard our information and protect our privacy. One of the most important steps is to review and adjust our privacy settings.

Start by exploring the privacy settings on your android device. These settings allow you to control which apps have access to certain information, such as your location, contacts, and camera. Take the time to review each app's permissions and disable any that you feel are unnecessary or invasive. This will help minimize the amount of data being collected and shared without your knowledge.

In addition to adjusting privacy settings, it's important to be mindful of the apps you download and the permissions they request. Be cautious about granting access to sensitive information and only download apps from trusted sources. Take the time to read reviews and research the app's privacy practices before installing it on your device.

Another way to safeguard your information is to regularly update your android device's software. Software updates often include security patches and bug fixes that can help protect against vulnerabilities that hackers may exploit. Set your device to automatically install updates or regularly check for updates manually.

Lastly, consider using additional security measures, such as enabling two-factor authentication for your accounts and using a trusted antivirus app. Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification, such as a fingerprint or a unique code, when logging into your accounts. An antivirus app can help detect and remove malware from your device, further protecting your information.

By taking these steps, you can better safeguard your information and protect your privacy while using your android device. It's important to stay vigilant and proactive in managing your privacy settings to ensure your personal information remains secure in today's digital age.

Pros and Cons of Turning Off Location Tracking

When it comes to location tracking on your Android device, there are both pros and cons to consider before deciding whether or not to turn it off. Let's dive into the benefits and drawbacks to help you make an informed decision.

One of the major advantages of turning off location tracking is increased privacy. By disabling this feature, you have more control over your personal information and who has access to it. This can help protect against targeted advertising, data breaches, and potential stalking or harm.

Additionally, turning off location tracking can help conserve battery life. GPS tracking can be a power-hungry feature, constantly draining your battery. By disabling it, you can extend the life of your device and have more time between charges.

On the flip side, there are some drawbacks to consider. Disabling location tracking can limit the functionality of certain apps and services. For example, navigation apps and weather updates may not be as accurate without access to your location data. Additionally, some apps may require location information for important features to work properly.

Another drawback is that by turning off location tracking, you may miss out on personalized recommendations and services. For example, some apps use your location to provide tailored recommendations for nearby restaurants or events. By disabling this feature, you may receive less relevant information.

Ultimately, the decision to turn off location tracking depends on your priorities and concerns. If privacy and battery life are top priorities for you, then disabling this feature may be the right choice. However, if you rely heavily on location-based apps and personalized services, you may want to carefully consider the potential drawbacks before making a decision.

Remember, you can always adjust your privacy settings and permissions to strike a balance between privacy and functionality. Stay informed, be aware of the risks and benefits, and make the choice that best suits your needs and preferences.

Reasons Discord's New Mobile Layout Update is Bad

The reply function is redundant, as most people are used to just holding down and tapping the reply option at the top. If they're going to change it, they shouldn't have gotten rid of the member list for this functionally bad option. It also doesnt line up with any other platform in terms of swipe direction.

The member list is gone from easy viewing

It doesnt auto open your last group chat/DM making multiple simultaneous conversations far more difficult and longer

It's already broken my app once (Locked all channels including other servers' to one channel. I could not access anything except that and my DMs.)

You can not see images that have been pinned in the pins tab.

The search function was fine before. Where did your before, during and after date search go??

All of Discord's individuality is disappearing.

Getting used to a mobile format actually impedes usage of the desktop format and likely discourages people from multiplatforming discord because theyre so used to the "intuitiveness" of the new "tailored for mobile" experience

There is no way to CHANGE IT BACK. This is like Tumblr rolling out Tumblr Live without any Disable button At All.

Why are they marketing midnight mode as Something fucking ENTIRELY new??? It has always been a feature on Android as the AMOLED theme???????

DARK MODE IS NO LONGER LOW CONTRAST AND DISCORD IS DEVOLVING INTO AN ACCESSIBILITY NIGHTMARE

Disable swipe-to-reply by activating full-screen Launchpad in Advanced Settings

Discord’s new layout is apparently permanent. Keep sending feedback and rating it one star on all appstores; if you get redirected to the advice article, double tap gove feedback.

If you, too, dislike the theme, head to settings (you can double tap your account picture) and go to Appearance, scroll to New Layout and Send Feedback.

Overall, what they've done is disorientate every single current user on discord, and you cannot avoid it unless you've not updated to the latest discord because this is not an update. It is a feature that has already been on the latest update and is being slowly rolled out, like Tumblr Polls.

Good Luck, and may we send as much feedback as possible and have them make it optional or at the least, revert it. I've already sent in at least seven complaints to discord, commented on their instagram post about the layout and I'm about one star review it on google play and app store.

This isnt just the appearance and vibes being off like the new (ish) app icon, this is a matter of functionality.

first batch of portal refs done!! the second will come soon (i hope) it will include spin off and mod characters as well :D

android AU: everything stays the same but the robots are more humanoid. thats it really xD

human AU: set in 2010. quite a few things change (i oc-ify the characters pretty much). the main things to note is that it’s a lot of what if scenarios. what if the resonance cascade in black mesa never happened, what if caroline had a daughter (gladys, so glados and caroline aren’t the same person in the AU. i wanted to explore the possibility of them being two separate people haha), what if the disk operating system project was put into halt and AI never took over. in the AU black mesa and aperture are still rivals in the development of teleportation technology, portals are still being experimented on, human test subjects are paid to test, they don’t go through cryo sleep stasis but live their life at aperture in dormitories (let me slice of life portal okay im self indulgent). Aperture still has questionable work ethics and morals but things work slightly more differently. Gladys is the CEO of aperture and she pushes for a lot of work to be done so they can surpass black mesa. Also important to note, Chell registers as a test subject for the cash deal but she also aims to investigate what really happened to her adoptive father who died at Aperture.

that’s the main essence of the au, still working on it and some plots here and there but, like most of my fandom aus, it’s really self indulgent slice of life crap LOL

if you have questions or feedback don’t hesitate to let me know! :>

how to keep following people when a major social platform implodes

(...and you don't want to join 20 new websites)

First, get an RSS reader*-- here are some free options:

Desktop: Feedbro (browser extension), Fraidycat** (browser extension/web), Thunderbird, Dreamwidth (web)

Android: Feeder

iOS/Mac: NetNewsWire

You'll be able to make a custom feed to follow blogs, webcomics, social media feeds, podcasts, news, and other stuff on the web all in one place. To follow something, find its "feed URL"-- often marked by an icon that looks like this ↓-- and paste it into your reader of choice as a new feed.

Some feed URLs for social media/other sites:

Tumblr: Use username.tumblr.com/rss or username.tumblr.com/tagged/my%20art/rss to follow a blog's "my art" tag (as an example)

Cohost: Use username.cohost.org/rss/public

Mastodon: Use instance.url/@­username.rss

Deviantart: Info here

Spacehey: Info here

Youtube: Go to a channel in a web browser, view page source, and use Ctrl-F/Command-F to find a link that starts with "https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id="

Reddit: Info here

Lemmy: At the top of a community's main page, there's a small RSS link next to where you sort posts/comments.

Some additions thanks to @innumerablewounds:

Dreamwidth: https://username.dreamwidth.org/rss (users can opt out of this).

Ao3: Tags have an "RSS Feed" button.

Bluesky: Add /rss to the end of a URL.

Neocities: https://neocities.org/site/username.rss

Sites that won't work all that great:

Twitter: Feedbro and Fraidycat** may be able to use Twitter profile URLs as feed URLs. Otherwise, use nitter.net/username/rss (or other Nitter instance) Public Nitter instances are dead/dying, and Twitter is now very hostile to pretty much anything that makes it easy to generate an RSS feed. For popular accounts, try this workaround using Google News...?

Instagram: Feedbro may be able to use Instagram profile and hashtag URLs as feed URLs. Check Feedbro's "scan interval" setting-- you could be rate limited or temporarily IP banned from Instagram if it makes requests too often!

Facebook: Feedbro may be able to use public Facebook group/page URLs as feed URLs, but see the warnings for Instagram.

Threads: Come on.

Also see how to find the RSS feed URL for almost any site. Try using public RSS-Bridge instances or Happyou Final Scraper to generate feeds for sites that don't have them (Pillowfort, Patreon, etc).

*You can set up your subscriptions in one reader and import them into another by exporting an OPML file. **Fraidycat's intended use is following a lot of people across different sites, so it's well-suited for this post and I'd recommend keeping an eye on it-- but I didn't recommend it initially because I had some issues with it, and it hasn't been updated in a while. The last time I used it, it didn't have a setting to change how often it makes requests to websites, causing me to get IP banned from Twitter and Instagram...

The Undead Florist

Anon said: Basically, I just wanted Danny to deliver flowers to the Justice League heroes from his fans. If you can include Everlasting Trio. U can add whatever crack you think would be best! Thank you!

Clark is in the middle of blocking a heat ray attack from a robot that copies the powers of any Justice League member when the unexpected happens. A kid, no older than fourteen, boldly walks into the battlefield carrying a lavish bouquet of red roses and trigger lilies.

He's dressed in a worker uniform: light brown khakis, a black shirt with a light-born vest, and a black baseball hat resting neatly on his head. There is a company logo on the upper right of his vest but Clark does not recognize the stylized D.

There was a still moment when Clark's super speed could see the exact second Amazo spotted the child. The boy wasn't paying attention, staring at his phone screen, which had the faint details of a map, and had two headphones in his ear.

Clark's eyes widen in horror, and he opens his mouth to try to shout a warning—though he doubts the kid could hear him over the loud music playing in his ear—but before he can, Amazo flung out an arm straight at the kid's head, still pinning Clark down with a cheap version of his own laser ray eyes.

No! No, please, he's so young! He pleads mentally, frozen in horror as the robot's hand goes right through the kid's head. It took a solid minute for Clark to realize that Amazo's hand hadn't ripped through the skull of the child but rather had passed through him as if the boy was not physically there.

From underneath a black baseball cap, brim, electric blue eyes stare at Amazo. Gesturing vaguely to the arm going through his head, the boy frowns. "Rude much?"

"Access: Black Canary," Amazo says in response, his jaw opening wider as a super-powered scream is released, pointing black at the kid's face.

The frown on the worker deepens as the boy reaches up and- slaps the android in the face? "Dude, I'm trying to work. I have like eight flower deliveries today. Also, that was a weak imitation. This is a real Ghostly Wail."

He opens his jaw, letting out a sound that wasn't as loud as Black Canary or Amazo but somehow worse.

And the sound—the unholy screech that releases from the child sends Clark to his knees, quivering in his boots as Amazo disintegrates right before his eyes. The only thing left of the android is a smothering pair of robotic legs that fall over with a loud thump.

The boy huffs, paying no mind to the fact that he took out the enemy the league had spent the last six hours fighting before Clark tried to lure it away from the city. He merely glances back at his phone, following the little moving icon on the map until he stands before the fallen hero.

"Hi! Are you Superman?" The kid asks in a polite, chipper tone. It's such a whiplash change between his normal voice and his customer service voice that it sets in. This is really just a Tuesday for him.

Clark opens and closes his mouth with a weak "Yes" and is pushed out.

The kid's smile grows as he pushes the flowers into his arms. Clark nearly drops the vase, scrambling to get a good hold of them as the kid pulls out a harmonica and plays a little jingle. It sounds like a mix between Happy Birthday and Ring Around the Roses.

Once he is done, the boy holds out his arms wide open and loudly proclaims, in a very obvious Transatlantic accent, which makes him sound... rather otherwordly: "These flowers are sent by your fan Kattie Longsmith in Metropolis, wishing to thank you for rescuing her mother and brother from a fire. She wants to remind you that she is your biggest fan and hopes you have a lovely day. Thank you for selecting the Undead Florist as your means of flora travel!"

With a theatric bow, the boy blinks out of existence.

Clark is left kneeling alone in a destroyed cornfield, beating black and blue, while holding a vase of lavished roses and lilies. He is unsure how long he will stay there, trying to process what he just saw as the Batplane flies onto the scene, Bruce jumping out of it with a cry of his name.

Batman growls upon taking in the scene before his friend rushes to his side. "What happened?"

"I ugh...I got a flower delivery." He manages to utter, eyes still trained on the spot of the strange kid.

"What?"

"Trust me, I'm as confused."

It turns out that Clark's delivery is not an isolated incident. Over the past three months, various Justice League members have reported similar interactions with the Undead Florist.

Flash got a bouquet while trying to stop Captain Cold. The kid had wandered in the middle of a fight, unfreezing the speedster to hand over yellow lilies and sunflowers from a little boy named Teddy Smith in Central City. He had melted the freeze ray that was shot at him while Barry was in the middle of a panic, thinking he would watch a child die.

One little jingle and message was delivered in a Transatlantic accent later, and the boy was gone without a trace again. Bruce had gone to the scene, trying to find anything that could give him some clue, but he disputed the clear picture of his face and the recording of his voice. Nothing about the boy came up in their systems.

Wonder Woman was next, receiving two large bouquets of roses from a fellow woman she had rescued named Trix Cooperman. Her jingle was slightly smoother jazz , and the message leaned towards romantic than gratitude from a fan, but the boy had delivered it nonetheless.

He also took out Cheetah with a well-placed punch, highly impressing Diana. He had the makings of a warrior.

Then Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Martian Man Hunter, Batman, Martian Man Hunter, Hawkgirl, Aquaman, Zatanna, and surprisingly Vigilante each got their own flower grams.

None of them were able to get any information about the child, seeing as he only appeared when the members were in the middle of a fight, which was driving Bruce mad.

Of course, they had tracked down all the clients but met a dead end when each claimed they had never placed an order with Undead Florist. Even when Diana was holding her rope, the people gave the same answer.

They had no idea why Undead Florist was delivering flowers in their name or where the message that came along with the flowers appeared from. The chilling part was that the messages did actively represent their emotions and feelings towards the heroes, but how the overpowered child knew that was left unanswered.

The other thing that bothered Bruce was that the Undead Florist only appeared when they were in battle.

"Maybe it's because he doesn't know how to find you otherwise," Nightwing suggested at the Justice League-wide meeting.

"He uses a GPS that is locked into the heroes." Batman grunts, not dismissing the suggestion but challenging it, which causes his eldest son to shrug.

"Undead could be following online tips or something. It's not like the Leauge is seen just strolling around the cities, but people tweak when they do happen to see us."

"We could test that. Have a group of heroes just relaxing at a cafe or something. See where he appears and if there is a pattern after monitoring social media." Red Robin suggests, rubbing his chin.

Batman considers it before nodding. "I shall divide the teams."

The Justice League goes out, doing as instructed, and sure enough, they find the Undead Florist appearing more and more. Red Robing happily puts together the pattern, pointing to social media generated by the younger generation's demographics.

Undead Florist is an actual teenager using DCtweets to find heroes to bring flowers to. They have enough proof of that to show he's harmless if one ignores his more than impressive battle skills.

"Now all we need to do is catch him," Clark announces. "We don't want to scare him, but the Justice League really needs to know how he's doing all of this. It could be a security risk."

Meanwhile, Danny chills in his haunt, watching Sam tend to the flowers in a large greenhouse he placed for her. Tucker is typing away on a ghost zone-powered supercomputer, looking at all the Soul orders their business is getting.

The Ghost Zone didn't have a formal currency; they had Deals instead. Even small unconscious deals—like wishing on a shooting star, throwing a coin in a fountain, or sending a prayer or two—could be turned into deals if a higher being encountered them.

Luckily for those people, Danny and his lovers are very kind higher beings and choose to complete their requests in a way that satisfies all of their obsessions without stealing souls.

Sam got to spread her greenery across worlds, Tucker got to spend time with tech from different universes and Danny was able to explore and protect the souls of humans.

That Danny could exchange these Soul orders for gold was no one business but their own.

"Ohhh, another order, Red Robin, from Universe Nine!" Tucker crows. "It's roses in the shape of a heart from Kon-el. Aw, he's in love with his best friend!"

"That's sweet." Danny smiles, leaning over his boyfriend's shoulder to read the message he must memorize when he struts into Gotham. "I know how much fun dating best friends is."

"Let's help those losers confess then!" Sam calls, raising her hands as roses of various colors burst to life around her.

Babying Batboy

First |Previous|Next

"He's all yours Kori!" Dick said holding up the Batboy burrito.

Danny chirped in distress as Starfire picked him up and swung him around in her arms. "You are much smaller than I thought. So little and cute!"

"Let me see, I wanna see his wings!" Beastboy said rushing over to get a look.

"Nightwing, what's that bag for?" Raven asked Dick joining in.

"It's Batboy's diaper bag." As he said this Danny's eyes snapped in his direction with murder in them, daring Dick to even try putting a diaper on him.

"Æah!" Danny babbled angrily.

"Don't worry he is housebroken." He laughed. "I put his supplies inside. His blanket, his bottles, chew toys, and this set of superhero themed pacifiers. You should give him one now. He gets fussy."

Danny turned red with embarrassment. Toddler-sized or not he was not going to be treated like a baby, at least not in front of the Titans.

"Aww, these are so cute. I've never really understood the use of these things since they weren't needed on my plant but i heart human babies need these." Kori laughed picking out the purple and black Raven themed pacifier and pushing it right into Danny's face.

Danny turned his head to avoid it.

"Looks like the little man doesn't want that one." Cyborg laughed picking up the green and purple Beastboy pacifier instead.

Danny turned his head the other way only to have the red and green Robin pacifier lodged in him mouth.

"I was right, he wanted one that matches his dad." Raven said.

"It's still hard to believe you had a kid," Cyborg said to Nightwing.

"I know, I thought my figure would never recover." Nightwing joked.

The group settled in the living room. Danny was still trapped in Starfire's lap, angrily chewing holes in the pacifier. If Dick pulled out baby food Danny would bite him.

"You know he has deformed wings, right?" Gar tried to sound tactful as he pulled one of Danny's wings to full splay. "His wings are only connected to his back muscles and not his chest. They would need more muscle, bone and wing span to fly. Not to mention the base sits so weirdly at his spine. Poor kid."

Danny hiccuped and tears welled up in his eyes.

One of the drawbacks of shifting is that it requires a shift in your mental state. Cravings, behaviors, and emotions change to match. Currently, the bat and toddler parts are overwriting his sensible older brain.

Right now his feelings were hurt because he worked so hard to make his wing and trained so hard to fly.

"Wehh," Danny whined.

"Gar! You know he might understand you!" Kori scolded him as he hugged Danny close to her chest and patted his back.

"Let me get him." Dick said leaning over to take Danny from Starfire only to have Danny smack his hand because this was all his fault this happened.

Danny pouted leaning into Kori.

"Guys Hex High is one!" Cyborg said calling everyone to the TV.

The other Titans scrambled to get a good seat to watch their favorite show.

Danny immediately perked up to watch.

This episode was a rerun. Nicky the android was debating who to ask to the dance. Rosetta Ferns the bush nymph or Alaska North the Yeti. Nicky doesn't know that Alaska was already going with her ex-boyfriend Finley Reef to see if they can make up and get back together.

"Alaska is too good for either of them and Rosetta deserves better than to be a second choice." Gar sneered.

"Finley was always taking advantage of Alaska's sheltered past to get her to do what he wanted. Remember when he told her that no one would eat the Gundruk she made for the potluck because he thought it was gross." Starfire chipped in.

Danny nodded along he fully agreed. Alaska was his favorite.

Dick hadn't actually watched the show but now he was stuck in the middle of the marathon and he finally understood why everyone loved this show.

Raven was actually the biggest fan and loved Whitney Wisteria the Witch.

Danny had successfully chewed through the pacifier only to get a bottle of juice instead because Kori thought he was hungry.
