The fact its literally an in universe joke

I like to think Jason makes these jokes all of the time as a way to spite Bruce and his 'replacement'. Moreso Bruce. He pretends thats the only reason for it (definitely not a way to cover up his feelings about it and the pain he felt when he thought no one cared)

When Dick first hears one I bet he's fine until he's safely away at home and then he just kinda breaks. Not only would it be a reminder of who he used to be and that legacy, it's a reminder of when they lost Jason which was not a good time for anyone in the family to put it lightly

Tim's just a cynic at this point. He doesn't particularly care for it but all it does is feed his insecurities that he's the only Robin that Bruce himself didn't choose, and that it got taken away from him so easily (I've heard that it was dick that took it from him when Bruce was dead? I'm not the clearest on that I still need to research it)

Steph isn't as bothered by it as the others, purely because she's had the legacy of batgirl to live up to as well as Robin and now is making her way as her own hero. Which unlike Dick wasn't just an act of rebelling or getting some space.

Damian (as untouchable as he may seem) is affected by it because he is the fifth one to hold the mantle. He didn't really pave his own way to become it because he's Bruce's son, in his opinion anyway. He has so much to prove to live up to it but even then when will it be his turn to pass on the mantle to yet another Robin?

Bruce I think is the most affected of all. He'd tell no one, bevause he's emotionally stunted, but its literally a reminder of some of his biggest failures. They're his children and he has deeply hurt them all, as much good as he has done for them. It acts as a reminder of everything wrong he's done and how quickly they all grew up, or missed out on it in Jason's case

Though none of them tell anyone any of this because of course they art Bruce's children. And they can laugh at the joke it just doesn't hit right with them sometimes

STOP announcing these finn and jake series when will i see. my LITTLE GUYS. again

[nejackdaw]

Finished BG3 today! Feel a little bad cause all my allies were waiting like "okay, whenever you call us, we'll be there!" and it's like "yeah! Fuck yeah! We're doing this together!" Except we did not do this together because Lae'zel had the bombs that dropped during the Gortash fight and Shadowheart had a haste scroll. I deleted that entire battlefield with a pissed off hasted Lae'zel and the occasional input from my warlock and a mind flayer.

"It's okay," I figured, "I'll summon them for the second phase. I'll probably need them then!" Well, no, I couldn't summon them, and no, I didn't really need them, either. I told Gale "look, it's the crown, now's our chance!" and he crit for like 100 damage right out the gate. I obliterated both phases of that battle. No allies called. I feel kinda guilty tbh

have been reading fic & thinking abt my relationship to fic, which is of course also among other things a mirror of my relationship to my own psyche, and like—i think all the discourse abt its being ~internalized misogyny~ to mostly/entirely read m/m is not ultimately, whatever the truth of it, all that helpful, either to readers or to Women! but of course that doesn't stop me from feeling weird guilt abt the fact that i don't read more f/f than i do, because if there's anything i love to do, it's feel unhelpfully bad abt myself on the slimmest of pretexts…

however! i did end up reading some f/f earlier, specifically transfem f/f, and it got me thinking—basically what i'm usually mostly reading fic for is the romance/sex, right? like, don't get me wrong, i love when a fic gives me a gorgeous double helix of, like, casefic and romance twisted together, that's ideal, but fundamentally most of the time the feeling up is what i sat down at the table to eat. so in a complex aegosexual way it's a fantasy i'm—not projecting onto, exactly, i don't want to be one of the people in it; but, like, lurking in the wings of with eyes big love-crumbs, to steal a phrase from a relevantly-named poet. :) and so it's no wonder that mostly i don't want to read cisfemme4cisfemme stuff, because that's not a dynamic that feels like it has any room for me, or even like i'm particularly welcome in the room. but like. if it's trans women? i'm there, i love that for them and for me. if there's a butch? i might get tripped up by our differing lenses on gender feelings and stub my toe a little but even so i'm probably here for it. (thinking here abt that one butch/femme geraskier ~cisswap which is, like, a gorgeous bruise i keep periodically pressing. <3)

so really it's just like. shocker: i'm not personally moved by fantasies abt romance which feature conventionally feminine cis women whom i don't personally find relatable or sexually desirable! and when i put it like that, it really instantly dissolves the weird useless discourse-induced guiltgunk. like. give me a woman who's, idk, tall and charismatic and strong and clever and talented at something (though honestly it's like that siken revised tweet, a lot of those characteristics are ultimately negotiable!), like women i've historically crushed on irl, and then give me a pairing for her that's like. another woman who's also enough of those things, or a man who's—honestly the kind of m/f i'm open to would be its own whole post bc holy shit am i fussy, it very much does exist but for now let's just stick a pin in that one—or somebody nonbinary, which… idk that i've ever actually seen nb/f in fic? i'm sure it exists! but i'm not sure it exists in any fandoms i've been into. pondering the question did get me really thirsty for a good 'farmgirl (of the luke skywalker variety) is absolutely stunned-and-ringing-like-a-struck-bell captivated by confident flamboyantly genderqueer love interest (example wanted)' dynamic, though…

Now how was I meant to expect that an Omen prequel would do all that. Actually kinda stunned!

I want to shove webweaving, poetry, literature, etc. up my ass. I want to consume it. Eat it every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Burn it to the back of my eye lids so that it's always there even when I'm asleep or dead.

It feels great to see someone else watch Fernando's show. Especially someone who also questions the cinematography on some parts.

I'm still just ??? at how unknown it is? Like anyone I've told about it had no idea it even existed. So it's fun to post it on here, to spread it and see people's reactions hahaha. But seriously the cinematography choices are uh....interesting to say the least! I just have so many questions for the director.....

Because there's a lot of cool cinematography, for example any of him in the Dakar had such beautiful shots, but then in the same episode there's just the most horny scenes I've ever seen??? If you remember, there's that spa scene in e4, I wanna gif it but like even after seeing it several times, I still can't watch it without my head in my hands, bcs it just feels so dirty to me 🫠

Why do you have an ao3 if you advocate against it lmao

i am not anti-ao3! i am, however, against sextupling the amount of money they ask for during a donation drive. if you want to support fic access, you should donate to the literal thousands of mutual aid posts by creators who make you content for free. i am tired of people so willingly giving so much money to ao3 but never supporting their peers in a tangible and direct away. if you don’t want to support your fic community members, you could also donate to a charity or non-profit that has a bit more of an altruistic impact than ao3, lmao.

Minecraft Wiki is independent again!!

Yahoo!!! No more FANDOM wiki!!! Find the new minecraft wiki at minecraft.wiki!!

I thought it would be good to make a little PSA post with summarised information on why they moved from FANDOM!

Why did they move?

FANDOM is notoriously a bad wiki for both readers and editors alike. This is due to the insane amount of ads, the site layout, the lag, the fact that FANDOM can just take your wiki from you, etc has made the minecraft wiki decide to move

Because of the lack of agency the minecraft wiki has over its own wiki, they had a long discussion and vote with the community on what wiki platform to move towards. You can view both discussions here and here

By moving to a more independent wiki, they can provide a much better and friendlier service.

What's improved with the new wiki?

New site look, lacking the ugly FANDOM yellow sidebar and removing all other unnecessary bloat! This also includes a dark mode option and other custom settings.

Faster load times! I have incredibly good internet, and even I notice the STARK difference between the load times of FANDOM and the official wiki!

Less ads! At the moment they have no ads, but they do intend to have at least one. The placement of which will be discussed with the community to ensure minimal disruption to the user.

Better search functionality! FANDOM's search is notoriously bad at giving you the answers you need. Now they can have a more robust search function that more accurately brings users to what they are looking for.

No age popups- Unlike FANDOM this wiki does not need to know if you're a child or adult.

Anonymous editing has returned! Users can now once again anonymously contribute to the site!

HOWEVER. THE MINECRAFT WIKI NEEDS YOUR HELP!

FANDOM refuses to close old wiki's that have moved away, and so they will continue to show up in search domains. The old domains such as minecraft.gamepedia.com and minecraftwiki.net are also permanently attached to the FANDOM wiki.

In order to help the new wiki be successful, you can help out in the following way:

Spread the word!

Don't interact with FANDOM links. The less people interact with FANDOM, the more google knows that people are looking for the official wiki and not the FANDOM one!

Dont use the old links, again for the same reason as above!

And of course, improve the wiki :D! Since you don't need an account to make edits, see what you can contribute!

Some Guy Outtake/Prompt

Danny knew walking alone in Crime ally at two am was a bad idea. To be honest walking anywhere in Gotham late at night was a bad idea. That wasn't going to stop him from getting the ice-cream he was craving though. He was ten pages into a twelve page argumentative paper for his ethics class and he needed sugar to finish that last stretch.

Also he was Phantom, even if he was no longer an active vigilante he was still quite powerful. He had defeated Pariah Dark and his evil future self, he was not afraid of muggers.

Explaining that to the bats of the city, however, was not an easy thing. (It didn't help that they didn't know he could take care of himself but he still felt it was unnecessary.)

Danny continued to stare at Red Hood in his path. Hood stared back with his arms crossed, unintimidated by the kid a full head shorter than him.

"Oh common man, I just want ice-cream from the convince store!"

"There is an active gang abducting people and you're risking it for ice-cream?" "... there's a gang abducting people?" "Not for long. Look kid, its a bad night to be out so I'll escort you home."

"No." Danny stepped to the side and continued past the crime lord (anti-hero?) making it three steps before Hood got him by the hood (ha) of his jacket. Danny slipped his arms out and walked on leaving the other to stare in disbelief for a few seconds.

After two blocks Danny stopped, threw his head back and groans, "if you insist on following me can I have my jacket back?" It was thrown at his head and Red Hood shadowed him all the way to the store.

Danny ignored his unspoken "I told you so" when said store was held at gun point just as Danny got to the counter.

(But he still got his ice-cream so who was the real winner?)
