The Batman fandom infantilizing a near 30 years old white man taking in a child, saying he was a brother more than a father as if he wasn't a full grown adult taking in a child he could have birthed, but parentifying a brown young adult taking in his brother pre-teen for less than a year, saying he was a father more than a brother (only a year is barely enough but ok), or saying he was more a father to his other brothers than Bruce, when he met them when he was 18 and 21 is making me uncomfortable, ngl.

Like, Bruce is a "kid" when he became Dick's guardian when he canonically was over 25 (he started being Batman at 25), and a brother to him when he raised him for 10 years (and Dick probably has not many memories from before Bruce now), but Dick is a "father" to Damian he only had as his charge for less than a year, half of which they were fighting each others??? Make it make sense???

First time boob haver experience where i was tired and hungry and i went for a walk to the gas station down the street and forgot a bra while pulling on a random outfit only to realize a block later how much my chest is moving and the uh stiff peaks present in my shirt. I forget the bra less often now XD

Grian: I am an adult. I am not a child. Treat me like an adult >:(

The watchers: Baby. Our little adorable baby.

yeah basically 😭

Grian reflects on how they spoke to him before in Evo, and realizes it was patronizing back then too, he just liked the praise

You wanna talk about House and Benny? Let’s talk about House and Benny. Let’s talk about how House says he saw Benny as a son figure ans a rightful successor to the strip. Let’s talk about how Benny was so charmed by House’s offer that he literally killed a man to get the position to agree to it. Let’s talk about how House was intentionally priming Benny and regrets not doing better, not for the wasted time but of Benny’s wasted potential, how it was misplaced. Let’s talk about how Benny didn’t question House’s leadership until the guy started going radio silent. Let’s talk about House and Benny:

People complaining about Bailey and/or Delainey not looking "young enough" are weird and racist lmao.

Lmao more about Grover aging at a rate of 0.4 instead of directly by half (12/28 = 0.4285). This is also assuming that Grover is only aging physically slower, but his mental/emotional capacity ages chronologically and with experience.

But anyway Grover has to get a fake ID to go to bars with Percy. When Percy turns 21, they realize ah shit Grover looks 16ish once they pull up to the club and immediately get turned away. Grover does have an official ID with his actual birthdate. In the past as a Keeper for Percy, Bianca and Nico, he also had a fake ID with an adjusted birthdate for whatever age he was supposed to be. He doesn't have either of those IDs anymore (he had to get a new one for B&N because Percy's would've put him at 14 and he needed to be put into 12 year old Bianca's class), so it's not like he handed over the fake one.

But the bouncer gives him a once-over and is just, "yeah no". They try to argue but the bouncer is like "if you wanna fight on this, I'm gonna keep your ID and call the police" so they give up (or rather Grover makes Percy give up because he got that look in his eyes and getting arrested on his birthday is not a birthday gift Grover wants to give).

In the end, they skulk around to some minimart and grab one of each alcoholic bottle with a weird name or label that they can find, are grateful the cashier doesn't seem to care that Grover looks 16 and barely even looks over his ID when he flashes it. Then they huff it back to Percy's apartment and taste test each drink on the floor of Percy's bedroom, because the whole point of going to the bar was to taste something that wasn't cheap beer stolen by the Hermes cabin.

Grover has a wildly fantastic tolerance for alcohol and Percy discovers that he is a lightweight.

The next time they try to go to a bar, Grover is sporting a temporary glamour from the Aphrodite cabin to make him look older. About half way through, they ring up Annabeth to make her do the math on how old Grover would have to be to actually look 21, and then the math on how long that would take because neither of them can subtract double digit numbers. Percy rediscovers he is a lightweight and, when the glamour finally starts to wear off, has to be carried back to his apartment by Grover, which makes for a ridiculous image of what appears to be a disabled 15 year old carrying around a grown man who won't stop talking about how much he loves his friends, including said disabled 15 year old.

I blame Yoda more for Anakin being left alone with the chancellor than Obi-Wan and that’s about as political as I get thanks.

genuinely why is there so much misinformation about the guardians of childhood book series?

[nonbinary-sticks-the-badger]

haaate how my two favourite ships (surgamy + espilver) typically involve the less popular character losing their edge and acting really out of character (but in an in character way?) because when i go through periods of not drawing/writing/whatever much when it comes to surge or espio as standalone characters (or at least outside the context of shipping) i get scared im gonna forget who they are and that theyre actually so cool

GOD god okay i have to be insane for a second but god i love hunter. i love her so much like i carry my little plushie hunter around with me everywhere i go i sleep with her i put her in my lap when i drive i leave her head poking out of my bag when i hang it up in the back of my work!! my bag which is covered in lesbian flag pins and rain world charms and pins and my work lanyard that i keep the marshmallow hunter pin on and my keys which are full of keychains of all of my interests !!! i love being unapologetically autistic and the feeling of autistic joy i get that runs through my entire body when i cup my little hunters face and give her a kiss right on the embroidered diamond on her forehead. sometimes everything sucks but at least i can go in the back of my work and hug my hunter plushie and not give a fuck because im an adult who cant be bothered to mask for peoples comfort anymore. im autistic and have adhd and i dont have to apologize for that!!!!!!!

be cringe be free. im almost a quarter of a century old and even though i still struggle with a lot worrying about the things that make me happy and bring me comfort should not be one of them

[aphantimes]

who even came up with knuckles' backstory. who went out of their way to make it make no sense and then proceed to not answer any of the questions they brought up. whose idea was it to have knuckles know nothing about himself yet recognise things he shouldn't. like. what was your plan. did you put these lines of dialogue in there just for fun? what

[chicinlicin]

no this isn’t their first trip to a bar why would you think that

[ikolit]

I just started isat so I'm not sure how much this is accurate but Odile doesn't feel old like a middle aged person to me, based on the dialogue and the jokes she feels so very 27-30 in an majorly early 20s group

the way modesty is weaponized against muslim girls is so fucking disgusting it makes me feel sick
