okay so i was thinking of a joke earlier about how in DPDC Amity Park's slogan "a great place to live" is not only city propaganda but also the city lording it over the rest of America for being normal. But then I remembered that, despite how many DCU Cities with heroes in it there are, the amount of cities in America without heroes still far outnumber the amount of cities in America WITH heroes.

So I did a little digging so the joke would still land. Something most heroes have in common is that they operate in major cities. What makes a major city? I found that the general consensus is that the population is roughly over or around a million. THEN I looked up the populations of cities in the DCU that I thought of off the top of my head. So Gotham, Metropolis, Starling City, Central City, Jump City. All of them ranked up to millions in population (most of them were in the tens of millions).

Amity Park's wikipedia describes it as being similar to specifically Philadelphia, Chicago, and San Francisco.

Philadelphia's Population: 1.576 million as of 2021 Chicago's Population: 2.697 million as of 2021 San Francisco: 815,201 as of 2021

Whiiich means that Amity Park if we take that from canon, is probably a major city. There are approximately 19,000 cities in America with probably less than a hundred that are major cities. Adding the DCU major cities wouldn't skew the data too much.

Which MEANS that I can make the joke that Amity Park's "great place to live" is not only just typical city propaganda, but also its Amity Park lording it over the other major cities for being one of the only major cities that doesn't have problems bad enough to warrant a superhero or a vigilante. Cue stage left the Fentons and Phantom :)

Amity Parkers were probably SO proud that they didn't need a superhero. They didn't have to worry about things like 'world ending threats' and 'super-powered individuals' and 'staggering property damage'. And then enter Fentons.

It also could be used as an excuse for why nobody took notice to Amity Park getting ghosts if folks like me aren't huge fans of the notion of a media blackout via Tucker, Technus, or the US Government. Or if you want to keep Amity Park as its urban city self. Amity Park's news on ghosts gets drowned out in a week because there's news on more popular, well-known cities going on every other day. The shit going on in Amity Park is every other major city's regular Tuesday and it gets filtered as such.

What childhood things do you see each bat kid collecting? (for example- silly pens, glow in the dark stars, silly bands, classified government records, etc.)

Thanks for the ask-I love this! I am guilty of collecting silly little things :)

Dick: Fidget toys. Bruce bought him some because the child needed them okay. Dick batKID! era had murder on his mind and ‘ugh Toys are for babies, Bruce!!’ He secretly loved them and still uses them all the time (he gave some to Damian too)

Jason: Rocks 🪨. What can I say? He’s a cool kid who collects cool rocks. Little Jason walking from a baseball game holding Bruce’s hand only to pull away and turn around because ‘Cmon B you just walked past a really cool rock!!!’

Cass: Glow in the dark stars. She loved to look up at the stars on the ceiling and the wall, this is where she felt peaceful. She sometimes lies down on the floor beside Duke and they stay there in silence or Duke tells her about the latest video game he’s been playing. Also silly pens because underneath the cowl she’s a softie. Her favourite is a black pen with a fluffy pink topper that has one googley eye on it (the second eye fell off but it’s perfect!)

Duke: Marbles. He swears he knows the rules of the game okay! Besides they’re really pretty and he can make them glow. He almost set fire to one of the cushions by manipulating the light through the glass, but don’t tell Alfred. He also collected metal bottle caps- bonus points for turning them into cool pin badges.

Steph: Clothing tags. Not the ugly ones that have fine print on it. The ones that have the company logo on it. Also random sewing materials like pieces of ribbon and buttons because ‘You never know when you’ll be in a fashion crisis!!’ Also Snow globes because I’m indecisive and she deserves a nice Snow globe.

Tim: Definitely classified government records. He accidentally found them okay! Finders keepers. The government still don’t know they’re missing. He’d also collects sticks from the Manor Gardens and gives one to someone he loves. Bruce cried when he was handed a stick- Selina was very confused.

Damian: Animal stickers. When he was in the League of Assassins, they’d get food come in for their animals, the packaging would come with an animal sticker that Damian would keep. Dick found his collection and Damian was embarrassed and swore him to secrecy. Dick bought him a 100 sticker animal book after that.

oliver and charlie despise them and do not like them. at all. screaming, crying, throwing up and breaking a window to get away from them

[bittwitchy]

see the reality is i post on my rps usually when nobodys been there a bit and nobody is probably online, but the mental illness in me keeps saying its bc everyone secretly hates me and i dont deserve love, and when i tell a gov doctor that, they basically just say ‘take your antidepressant’s and shut up’ which is also funny when said gov doctor wont refill my fucking antidepressants in the first place

Hi Batty! How are you doing lately? ❤️

Hi!! I've been doing okay, but the past couple days have been a little rough. Once I get my sleep schedule back in order I should be fine ^-^

I'm excited for some stuff happening this summer!! A local trans organisation is hosting some pool parties, and I'm hoping to attend!! I tried on my swimsuit earlier to make sure it still fits, and I'm all set :3 I'm planning on taking my partner to one of the pool parties when they're visiting and I'm very very very excited about it!!!! I can't wait to see them in person :3

I could make this a mile long and talk about everything, but I will spare you the text brick and maybe break things up into different posts. Thank you for asking!! I hope you're doing well ^-^ Wishing you the best 💕💕💕

Israeli gov-led Zoom calls, WhatsApp chat logs, and other docs provide a window into the massive effort to shape online discourse and silence pro-Palestinian voices.

As the Israel-Hamas war began to heat up in late October, Courtney Carey, a Dublin-based employee of the Israeli website building company Wix, posted the Irish words “SAOIRSE DON PHALAISTIN” -- “Freedom for Palestine” -- on her LinkedIn page. Within 24 hours of Carey’s LinkedIn post appearing, Alon Ozer, a Miami-based investor, took a screenshot of the post and shared it with a WhatsApp group of more than 300 like-minded investors, tech executives, activists, and at least one senior Israeli government official. Ozer took care to note that Carey worked for Wix. Oded Hermoni, a tech journalist-turned-venture capitalist, piped up to assure everyone that Batsheva Moshe, Wix’s general manager for Israel and a member of the group chat, had been “on it since Sat[urday] night.” Moshe then chimed in to assure her peers that the issue with Carey had been “taken care of since it was published.” “I believe there will be an announcement soon re our reaction,” she added. Wix terminated Carey the following day.
