Roman, on a laptop: Logan! I've been writing all day and I am stumped. Can you help me figure out how to end this story? Logan: Oh, I'd be happy to- ...Roman Roman: Yes? What is it? Logan: You have absolutely nothing written on here Roman: I might also need help with writing the middle and the beginning

this one quote will always resonate with me

the same imagination we use as a readers is necessary to understand real people also, and to be intimate with them.

I wish I saved that post that explained how the modern concepts of neurodivergent and neurotypicals does more harm than good(?

Hey Dr. Devon Price. How do you feel about people missquoting the n tittle of your book "Laziness is not a thing". I think people should be able to easily google to check that your book is actually called "Laziness is not real", like how do you mistake the name of it when is so clearly everywhere as "Laziness is something that definitely doesn't exist and is not real"

🤪i cant believe someone else has noticed how common this is! i mostly find it funny at this point

A/N: Had alot of fun with the Bane one, so I'm doin' this one on Joker. Can be interpreted as romantic or platonic. Also I can't make the image bigger, sorry. Lmao enjoy the tiny image.

Hey Darlin'!

I want to start this off with: I know I fucked up. Badly. It had uhm, dawned on me how my previous treatment of you was at best unfair and at worst, callous. And at absolute worst, I treated you abrasively. I know that nothing I do will ever repair the damage I've done. I also know that nothing I ever say can fix it either. I get that you're angry, and you have every right to be. I wouldn't be surprised if you immediately burned this letter as soon as you saw my name on it. Hell, I would honestly be surprised and pleased happy to know you even managed to read this far!

As a way of shedding light, I'm very proud to say that I am a changed man. A better man. I'm not saying I'm a good man, but I am saying that I changed for the better, so don't missquote me. Now, you may be wondering how I changed, and why. And I'll tell ya! Short story shorter, I became temporarily amnesiac and had a lovely lady walk in my life with two beautiful kids. All hers, not mine, but I love 'em regardless. That's how; now here's why. In addition to her, Harley had shown me just how much I sucked and how if I wanted to rebuild what we had, I would need to change. So, that's exactly what I did! I had changed so much that I wore khakis for six months when I was a temporary amnesiac, six! Khakis, of all things! I could hardly believe it myself!

Alas, I digress. My point is that I did change for the better. Whether you've seen my statement about that on TV or not doesn't matter because you now are in possession of written proof of it. Words that I consciously put down on paper and placed in a Jokerized festive envelope to have mailed to you. I would've delivered it myself, but I uhm, assumed a gesture like that would be taken the wrong way. If you managed to read it up to this point, [Name], then consider this proposal. Please, would you be willing to join me in a restaurant to chat? To actually talk and not have a conversation mainly filled with vague threats? Practically most of them are my fault, but you know what I mean.

It can be wherever you want, promise! Batman and prices aren't a problem, so leave the "check" to me. Cruise ship or restaurant, even your home. Doesn't matter to me, so long as we can work this out. Whatever your reply is, I'll leave my girlfriend's address at the bottom so you can mail your response to me. Or personally deliver, my preferred way of recieving your answer.

------

Love, Joker 💚💜 [The Clown Prince of Crime]

P.S. I was lying about the check. I'm not paying and I'll be damned if you do. I said I was a changed man, not a better one. After all, some habits just die hard!

I was trying to source one specific quote that was misatributed to all the classic suspects (Wilde, Lennon, the Bible and Shakespeare) and I accidentaly found the "inspiracional quote" side of YouTube. It seems to consist mostly of missquotes, "live, love, laugh" wine moms and alpha males, also a lot of this types of channels are CLEARLY run by bots.

I clicked in the one Wilde video that appeared to mention the quote in question to see if they would source one of his works as the place the quote came from (they didn't because Wilde never said that, it was actually and in a plesant surprise a brazilian writer in the 80's). And the coments where very weird.

There was someone that just really wanted Eisntein quotes. People complaning because their favorite "thing Oscar Wilde never actually said" wasn't in the video. A considerable amount of alpha males acting as if Lord Henry's quotes were super smart and also as if Wilde was famous for his multiple relationships with woman or very solid marriage that did not end badly two things no one ever associated him with ever. And my favorite: someone said they had been a fan of Wilde for awhile but didn't knew he was a philosopher (I belive refering to aestheticism) nor a writer wich is just bonkers because if not for the things he wrote what are you a fan of Wilde for? That's like being a fan of idk BTS while having never heard any of their songs. What exactaly are you a fan of?

So, this year of f1 (which happens to be my first year but I've been attempting to do my research on other ones) seems to be shaping up to be filled with cardboard boxes of cars, especially for some people. This post is specifically for my memory/entertainment, and so I can use this as a reference when ranting to irls. That being said, I'm going to attempt to summarize as many of the Australian gp 2024 car failures/iconic moments/general large moments as I can remember because this is wild to me:

(Please feel free to add more. I live for the fun race moments. Also, I apologize if I missquote anything, Im trying to type as the race occurs)

1. Long before the race even began, Alex Albon wrecked his car, causing MASSIVE damage to the chassis and was told to take over Logan Sergeant's car. This happened on Albons birthday. Horrible for Sergeant, absolutely hysterical that it was on Albons birthday. Like, congrats!!! Here's your teammates car!

2. Max Verstappen's right break went up in like actual flames, forcing him to retire to the joy of many who don't like him and the absolute horror of literally every red bull fan ever

3. Hamiltons engine (to me) audibly went pop, and he had to retire. (Before this, they put him on softs to start, which like. I barely know tire strats at all, but even I had visible question marks)

4. Esteban Ocons breaks started to go boom but got fixed during a pit stop. This does not mean that Alpine managed to be successful in any way (<-said with mild amusement)

5. Russell running into a wall (he is a-okay, they got him into a medical car asap) bc of some oversteering/lower entrance speed from alonso, causing the race to be finished under a virtual safety car as Russells car was on its side in the middle of the track

Things that I just found funny in general:

1. Both merc drivers being mind boggled/lightly astonished by how fast Checos car was going with Russell calling it a rocket ship.

2. Random cut to Zac Efron in a Red Bull hat

3. Worlds fastest three car battle between Fernando Alonso (doing his absolute best to annihilate in the Aston Martin), Checo (in the local rocket ship), and Leclerc (just pitted, was the #2).

4. Saubers utter inability to have a pit stop under 10 seconds. Both Zhou Guanyu and Valtteri Bottas were victimized severely. (Oh my god, the sky commentators "ring the church bells sauber just did a pit stop that wasn't a complete disaster" and it was a 3.8s pit)

5. Extra wheel nut went rolling cross the Sauber garage, and it made it seem like they lost one on Valtteri's stop (The wheel nut that made a bid for freedom - thank you sky sports commentators)

6. "Nice to see the Haas cars racing [long pause] and not going backward on their wheels" - once again, sky sports continue to be hysterical

7. Cut to ferrari fans in clown wigs and noses.

8. Carlos Sainz being absolutely off the rails and winning a race, not even two weeks off appendicitis surgery

9. "There's a lot of world championships... as spectators" - referring to Hamilton and Verstappen watching mildly listlessly at the race, one more than the other

As previously stated feel free to lemme know about moments I missed or your favorite moments in general!! Hope it was a great race day for everyone!

Logan: Shhhhhh. You have to be quiet in the library Roman: ...Nerd, you can't call the house a "library" just because you make Thomas keep buying piles of books quicker than he can read- Logan: SHHHHH!

this is... just an admission of the accusation. it's literally just that. i'm confused as to what LO thought she was doing here or how she thought this was a defense.

for context, an anon asked to LO if she would have the same complaints about hunter if he were black. LO then responded that at least then he would have something interesting about him. implying that having black skin alone is interesting. the "inherently interesting" part comes from the SU is garbage video from LO where she said explicitely that about non binary people. "non binary people are inherently interesting" and using that as a reason why Stevonnie wasn't good enough non binary representation (which caused the black non binary person LO plagiarized on the racism part on that video to tell her "just say you hate non binary people and go" before LO deleted their comment on that video). both non binary identities and black people were treated as if those aspects made a character more interesting by themselves. this comment added to how disrespectful she was about the portrayal of the blackness of Alaina while using it as a defense against critique ("just say that you hate black women and go") and the black fetishization of having rey crushing exclusively on black women were all factor that contributed to people start saying that LO fetishizes black people, specifically black women. here she just repeated the same idea. that making a character black is "making something new". the character could have the same story, the same personality, the same reactions but because someone made them black that somehow made them newer, more interesting. again, she didn't say anything about how to change Hunter as a character. the question was only about his race and LO agreed that alone would have make him better, which she just doubled down now.

when someone comes out to keep repeating the same sentiment that is not missquoting, that is just them refusing to admit that is what they said.

Did Rodri always be like this? 😭 He completely lost his mind. It just clicked to me that when things don't go his way, his response or interview always sounds weird.

City failed to complete the job, and now my day has been ruined for two nights straight. 

Importantly, seeing those teams in this competition compared to Spurs, I honestly don't think we have the squad ready for this trophy yet (even though I hope we are in the top 4 this season). 🥲

Isn't everyone like that? I mean, Xavi got sent off the other day just because he was angry at how the match went. Left his players alone in the hardest moment of the season. But don't say anything because it's all the fans and the media's fault. Him being a mediocre manager has nothing to do with it, apparently. But the thing with Rodri that pisses me off is he's always missquoted when he speaks Spanish and people put it in English on twitter. They do it with everyone, to be fair. And I hate fan pages who do that with a passion. But Rodri has no social media to tell people to stop lying like others (and probably doesn't care anyway). And he's sent to speak in English...when he's not good at it! Send the English captain. Send Grealish. Oh right, they were probably hiding 🙄

And then I see City "fans" (they call themselves that anyway) saying Rodri shouldn't do any interviews. When if he speaks his own language, he's interesting to listen to and more articulate than the whole fake fanbase together. But when Pep is an absolute twat every single press conference, being so rude to the journalists, he's a legend.

Spurs is a work in progress. And I'm confident, honestly. Like who knows what'll happen next but I think Ange gave us reasons to trust him. Plus he will have another chance this summer to add and remove to the squad. The end of the season will be brutal but those teams are hurt too now so... we'll see 👀
