Kinda baffled whenever I see people draw Murtaugh as like... A teenager. That man is 23 years old with the haggard features and haunted demeanor of a 40 year old divorced chainsmoker. At least give him a 5 o'clock shadow or something.

i desperately wish gw2 had more food-centric lore. i think about asura food more than is probably particularly reasonable. they're sort of implied to like molecular gastronomy in the lvl500 chef quests which is fitting and makes sense, but surely not every asura is eating bespoke Pea Spheres day in and day out right? i think my favorite angle on them is a sort of 50s-80s american-esque food style where there's a huge emphasis on things being Convenient and Scientific, so you'd get a lot of absolute slop tv dinners and canned items that have labels boasting how they were nutritionally fortified and contained your day's complete vitamin intakes and so on. a lot of jellied things. i do also fully believe they would have + eat soylent.

Monsters at Work Characters and what they represent

Tylor: Going through hardships to realise what truly matters, Who you want to surround yourself with and what you believe in, Even if it may not be exactly what or who you planned for yourself

Val: Continuing to show up and be grateful for your friends, Your family, Your job, Your life and most importantly - Yourself - with excitement and positivity.

Fritz: Never being afraid to show your Love and affection for those you truly care about and taking serious care and responsibility for the job you've been given, especially when it comes to your team.

Roger Rogers: Not letting anyone, even family, hold you back from your dreams and what you believe in. Also forgiving someone (if they deserve it) when they've realised their mistake and re-building that relationship.

Duncan: Portrayel of hard exterior who says they only care about themselves but in reality they have a soft inside and do care about their weird little family (Example A: Love for his mother) (And Gilfs) (A classic we adore) (ALSO THE MANAGER POSITIO-)

Cutter: Never let anything stand in the way of what you know, what you deserve and what you love. (even if it's over some Pulpy orange juice)

Mike and Sulley: You don't need qualifications, A degree, To 'know someone' or be a part of the popular crowd - You just need a Dream, Determination and hard work. They literally started from the mail room and now they run the company. If that's not 'Starting from the bottom now we're here' then I don't know what is.

George Sanderson: 2319!!!! I REPEAT- 2319!!!!!

New Teen Titans (Vol. 2) #6 - post-Terror of Trigon

It's very interesting to me that even in the midst of this earnest team heart-to-heart, when Dick is explicitly working against Batman's teachings of privacy and reserve to try and open up to his friends…he still does not actually discuss the nightmare that he experienced. (Which was a doozy.)

Donna and Gar talk explicitly about what happened in their own nightmares - their evil selves, their innermost fears and struggles. Vic doesn't go into detail like they did, but he does talk about the nightmare renewing his horror with the way he looks, and his fear of losing touch with Vic Stone, the person underneath the cyborg steel.

Kory is the only other person who doesn't talk about her nightmare at all - in fact, she's the only one who apparently hasn't been shaken by Trigon's torture, instead focusing on how they saved the world, knowing that they've helped so many people.

Dick not going into his own nightmare is probably meant to reflect a similar resolve and forward outlook, as the Titans' leader... He does firmly stand behind his decision to leave Robin behind, to become Nightwing and a full-time Titan, which is an obvious rejection of the fears and themes tangled up in his battle against his "evil self".

But that's only clear to Dick himself, and to the readers, who know what he experienced in the nightmare. He doesn't tell his friends about it - maybe can't gut himself and bare his vulnerabilities that far? Even as he's admitting how much it bothers him that they don't talk to each other more on a personal level, how he feels better with them than with anyone else, and wants them to keep getting better... Oh, Dickie.
