what does endo neutral mean

"so in your opinion do endos exist or not?" *non committal shrug. endogenic systems now only exist halfway. the right half specifically*

???

Hello anon, mod signal here, the Endo Neutral Mod.

I have terrible news for you but endo neutral, just like pro and anti endo, is a nuanced take like any other. But I can describe what it means to me personally.

It means I'm not in the business of examining peoples perception to see if it's "true" or not. I don't care about debating if endos are real. I'm not going to tell people that the way they're experiencing the world is a lie. I just start giving a shit when people start spewing bullshit in the direction of cdd systems.

I give a shit when endo systems look at someone whos telling them they're a cdd system and try to fakeclaim their trauma as a way to convince them they're actually an endo. I give a shit when young cdd systems are folded into endo communities and encouraged to split and dissociate in the process. I give the most massive shit of all when endos start veering into extremely debunked iatriogenic theories as a way to somehow prove their existence.

That's all it means. Though a world in which endo neutral did just mean that I only believe in like... a willogenic headmate only being able to switch into the left side of someone's body. That might be a slightly funnier world. With even dumber syscourse.

i do think it's interesting to look at what all the extremely far right people are saying post election results and it all follows this overall theme of its not about policy or appointment it's just "haha look they're SO mad look at these (insert slur here) libs crying!" and meanwhile the conversation im seeing from people that aren't completely microwaved is "oh we're doomed and at the very least entering a recession by the next year at the very worst the entire country may turn into an authoritarian dictatorship mask off mass surveillance state that's one glorified factory we'll all die in before we're 45". just an observation that I think fully explains why some people voted the way they did. it's all about fuck you im getting mine to these people but they don't realize they're also going to have the same shit in their hands as everyone else and it's not gonna include cheaper gas or whatever the fuck

[basil-from-omori]

i am in love with ace attorney but unfortunately it has made me yearn for the detail of danganronpa, along with the shittiness. ace attorney is boring danganronpa, which is an incredibly good thing

Revisiting old fandom stuff today and remembering the time that I made a fandom-wide headcanon based off of a misheard song lyric that no one told me I'd misheard for literal years.

Dick Grayson's unmatched success as a child vigilante makes a lot more sense when you remember the Court of Owls was a thing and that Dick was meant to be the next Grey Son.

There is no way that someone at Haly's Circus wasn't there keeping an eye on him while he grew up. A future weapon needs to be trained and monitored after all, and a circus, a place where weird skills are completely normal, is actually a great place to secretly train a child.

You know, just some knife tricks that translated really well into actual fighting. How to get out of restraints and pick locks while under a time limit. Death defying acrobatic stunts that coincidentally do wonders for parkouring. That sort of thing. Nothing that seems out of place for a boy growing up around circus performers to learn, but would literally any where else.

I mean, while I fully believe that most kids would want to kill the man responsible for their parents deaths, Dick was weirdly prepared to go through it. He tracked down Zucco with way more ease than any normal child should have too. He became the first child vigilante, for goodness sake. The first Robin! He only started getting formal training after he basically forced Bruce into it!

Bruce himself has no idea that this kind of competency in a child is unusual, considering he was much too blinded by the similarities between his and Dick's tragic orphanhoods.

Alfred is in a similar boat because he’s desensitized to weird children after he somehow managed to successfully raise Bruce 'The Batman' Wayne, so he doesn't clock the hyper-competency as abnormal either.

By the time the other batkids start popping up (Jason 'The Audacity' Todd, borderline-street rat with no fear) (Tim 'the greatest stalker in Gotham history' Drake, child genius, also bullied his way into becoming Robin) (Barbara 'raised by the only uncorrupt cop in gotham' Gordon) (Stephanie 'daddy issues and spite' Brown) (Duke 'Pretends he's the normal one and people believe him' Thomas) it's too late.

It would also explain how Dick got along so well with Damian out of all of them. Similar childhood with different approaches and all that. On some subconscious level, Dick recognises and resonates with the murderous ten year old assassin with strong familial ties to a secret elite assassin organization.

It isn't until after the whole Court of Owls and Grey Son reveal that suddenly Dick realises a whole lot of things about his childhood that suddenly make a lot more sense.

the scary part about getting better is that there's this constant fear that things will go back to what they once were

[cryptocism]

It would have taken another immortal to keep up with him.

so i haven't read the books but i did read the Devil's Minion chapter and this part made me laugh out loud:
