ok here is my personal interpretation of some of the batfam family and/or found family dynamic:

bruce & dick: found family. yes they are legal family but this is because they're weird and freaks about public facing personas it's only because adopted father son is the only thing they can say to other people and seem normal their strange mess of father son brother mentor student partners is the foundation of their relationship and they are found family

bruce & jason: family. father & son end of sentence. yeah they're freaks about it but they're family

dick & jason: family. so i havent read all that much where they interact but i think they're brothers in that they are very strange about it

dick & tim: family. brothers. they were weird about it and then got less weird about it and now are normal brothers. as normal as brothers can get you understand what i mean

bruce & tim: found family they've got that strange mentor student partners thing going on and the adoptiveness is also because of the being freaks about public facing personas

tim & jason: i also havent read all that much where they interact look im basing most of this on like the 90s and jason is dead ok. but tim being how he is about jason while hes robin and jason is dead is a kind of brothers to me. but i also think its worse than that so. i dont think i can say anything definitively but im going to go with family with negative connotations. legal family.

tim & steph: found family. they start out as weird friends and become weird significant others and they are too entwined in each others lives in a strange and inexplicable and undefinable way. more than friends and not siblings and not exes even though technically they're exes. found family.

does steph interact with dick. does she interact with jason. hm. this is where i make stuff up: found family in the sense of they have no idea why she's here and they're not that close with her but she is close with tim. found family in law. yes.

steph & bruce: found family with negative connotations. they are part of each other's lives and it's bad and no one likes this and it's worse because sometimes it is good sometimes it's truly good and that makes the worse parts worse

babs & dick: found family. started out as friends and became intertwined in each other's lives in a way that cannot be defined. sometimes they are dating and sometimes they are divorced and sometimes they are friends and all the time they are inescapable

babs & jason: im making stuff up. they are found family in laws who are also friends when jason is robin.

babs & bruce: coworker can be a type of found family. flavor of found family that is divorced coworkers

bruce & cass: family. father daughter. father daughter with negative connotations and also complicated about it. despite not being raised by him cass inherits his neuroses

cass & dick: i think i've only read where they interacted like twice? putting them as legal family. they are legally family and that's a tie that means something to them but not necessarily close like siblings like dick & tim are siblings you know what i mean. friendly legal family

cass & tim: hm. difficult. they are like. found family to me. their dynamic is not sibling but friends doesn't fit them either. intertwined in an inexplicable way.

cass & steph: found family found family found family. there is no label that can encompass their relationship. they mean so much to each other in a way that words will never be able to describe. they live in each others skin. they are not family they are not friends they are not lovers and they have been assumed to be all of these things but their bond is unable to be pinned underneath any type of word.

cass & babs: found family. mother daughter mentor mentee student teacher sisters in arms agent and handler. all of these things and none of them. undefinable and inextricable. found family

steph & babs: found family in laws who are also friends. not necessarily close enough to be found family but they are found family in laws and also friends

babs & tim: friends who are found family in laws. friends first found family in law second

cass & jason: ??????? making stuff up time for me. legal family derogatory maybe? legal family like the family when you have a big family gathering and you have no choice but to invite both of them because its a family gathering but everyone who cares about their sanity and physical health will do their best to prevent them from talking about politics with each other at the dinner table or something

#too many of these guys.#anyways do you see why i avoid writing large casts in batman fanfiction now #i would start going insane #i have time for 1 pov character and their relationship with maybe 3 other people max #because even then you have to think about those other 3 people and their relationships with each other #and do we see how complicated it gets.#anyways i was trying to do it in order of appearance. didn't even get to duke #partially because i havent read all that much of him #read we are robin but from what ive picked up on #relationships duke gets most significant development with?#him and bruce: found family derogatory. energy of duke found bruce as a wet rat and now he's stuck with him you know what i mean #and duke & cass but i havent read outsiders yet. vibes wise id say friends first found family second #i think duke and damian could be like brothers though.#christ i did not even get to damian #there are too many of these guys #i simply dont care about alfred sorry

A Pragmatic and surprisingly comforting perspective about the Trump 2nd Presidency from the ACLU

***Apologies if this is how you found out the 2024 election results***

Blacked out part is my name.

I’m not going to let this make me give up. It’s disheartening, and today I will wallow, probably tomorrow too

AND

I will continue to do my part in my community to spread the activism and promote change for the world I want to live in. I want to change the world AND help with the dishes.

And I won’t let an orange pit stain be what stops me from trying to be better.

A link to donate to the ACLU if able and inclined. I know I am

#us politics #donald trump #election 2024 #aclu #a promise to myself #how is this comforting you May ask #bc we are not fighting alone or uninformed #we have good and strong groups in our corners defending what we believe in #it’s not over yet #we have to try and pushback #added Alt image descriptions since this is leaving containment #happy to see many engaging with this to either donate time or money or both #really warms the cold heart of mine #wow this broke containment #overall it’s been pretty nice seeing people engaging with it ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work #they did the travel ban right at the beginning of the previous presidency too #also every major civil battle in the last century #brown V board of education- the one that desegregated schools #loving V Virginia- legalized interracial marriage #roe V wade- legalized abortion #United States V Nixon- watergate scandal WHICH LIMITED US PRESIDENTAL POWER #Edwards v. Aguillard- helped allow schools to teach evolution #Planned Parenthood v. Casey- another abortion case #ACLU v. NSA- to stop the NSA spying on wikipedia users #Ingersoll v. Arlene's Flowers- fought to stop LGBTQ discrimination from businesses #Obergefell v. Hodges- case that legalized gay marriage #literally WAY MORE GUYS #so don’t fall into dispair! these are literally one of the good ones!

"Go to hell" is basic. "Hope your favourite anime movie sequel gets cancelled after seven years in production AND getting an animated teaser." is smart. It's possible. It's terrifying. It's happened.

#I don't follow YOI #but seriously though I feel really bad for the fans #Mappa has such talented staff but management's work practices suuuuuck #those guys are probably being overworked on way too many projects and there's been too high a staff turnover to continue the film #like I'd be amazed if any of the original artists are still working on it #imagine working on it knowing now that your work won't see daylight and that none of the overtime or suffering was worth it #yuri on ice #ice adolescence #mappa studio

"jason is a knockoff watered down percy" NO hear me out, jason actually parallels annabeth immensely, sharing SO many similarities with her personality, not percy, in this essay I will-

edit: my full analysis is out now! here

#just adding that I think jason and annabeth are similar BUT they are SEPARATE characters with separate personalities ❗❗#and i don't think jason is anyone's knockoff!! so don't misunderstand me guys!#trust me ik how it feels like to have jason getting mischaracterized so I would never do that!#when I read about jason the first time I'm like wow he's gentler but similar to annabeth chase wow he could be her twin #they are both genuinely interested in learning stuff. they both mansplain and geek. they are both misunderstood as conceding when they do #they love getting involved in debates and discussions. they both have designed temples assigned to them by the gods themselves #they are both seen as 'scary and intimidating' when they're just softies who need love. they are both overthinkers with too many plans #they are both soft for ppl w silly humor. they both kinda give off an untrustworthy vibe at first bc they know too much info #they are both also pretty suspicious and don't trust immediately. they both love architecture. they both have a 'cold icy' stare #also they're both TALL #I could keep going on and on for ages actually #pjo #pjo fandom #percy jackson #jason grace #pjo series #pjo hoo toa #pjo hoo #annabeth chase

Soup solves everything.

#dungeon meshi #dungeon meshi spoilers #Senshi #izutsumi #chilchuck tims #laios touden #marcille donato #THE SOUP CHAPTER HAS BEEN ANIMATED #I have so many thoughts about senshi's backstory and how much that experience has shaped who he is.#This is such a powerful moment because it makes it clear how *stuck* senshi has been because of his trauma.#Up until now he has been a mystery! He's the chef guy! Don't worry about his apparent reclusiveness from society!#Don't worry about his intense need to make sure 'the young ones are fed'!#Senshi still has a lot of healing but this was the moment he could finally forgive himself.#This chapter is so important to me because sometimes you truly do need to face the most terrifying things to move past them.#This joke here is a bit too narrow to be funny for the masses...but mdzs fans know.#MDZS :handshake: Dungeon Meshi: Soup moment.#Laios and Jiang Yanli have a powerful magic call "Eat some soup and maybe you'll feel better'#That is also a spell you can cast upon yourself. Go eat some soup and you will feel better. Merry Soupmas everyone.#One more week of Thistle Thursdays....I'm not ready to say goodbye B*(

you know, you know. no gods, no masters, no kings on pedestals. everyone is fallible. death of the author. you know! you are balanced about your intake of media - you allow the wiggle room, the grace, the gratitude, the skepticism. nobody above criticism.

but still. a weird gut-punch feeling, something akin to betrayal. you read the article. surprise! an author you love is actually: a serial fucking predator.

well, shit. what now. no, you knew he was a person (all people are), but now you're wondering - what have i overlooked by accident? what messages have i internalized that are strange and cruel? and also, like, what the fuck?

his actions lay a thick glaze on top of everything. like each place is now ruined, opaque in a new way. but okay, fine, you've done this before. you knew better, right? you've been betrayed by many a cherished childhood author.

still, this stickiness. fuck. can you pick up that book again. will you read it to your children. you've recommended it to others - will you ever do that again? and of course, of course, no parasocial relationships. you were theoretically above this kind of sentiment. but the artist informs the art, right.

so it's not something as clear-cut as feeling he owed you, specifically (a stranger) better behavior - just that you kind of, in a distant and odd way... sort of trusted him to do better. it's not like a real trust or something speakable, just the faint hope that the product (good books) was a thin representation of the soul. now it feels like the product (good? books?) was a mask. in some small or insignificant way, your previous support of this person lent them power. your money and your time and your laughter.

and the thing is - you have this terrible, echoing sensation. how many times will this happen? over and over. you find out that the singer you love is actually a predator. you learn over drinks that your favorite high school english teacher is in jail for what he did to her. you listen to the news idly and suddenly discover that a woman you used to idolize has been abusing her kids for an actual eon.

what can you touch without the static melting off. you can't even really complain about it too much (you were supposed to know better, and besides, you don't want the same re-split "it's not your fault, love what you love" basic advice), but now it's here. somehow, it feels like - you let him into your life.

it's not that things need to be pure or an artist has to be like, endlessly perfect, mindful. demure. it's more just this terrible truth that has been replayed through your veins so often it feels criminally vain. power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. did you want any one person to be worth that power?

it's just that he wrote books where he seemed to understand that. he seemed to know about hierarchies and unfair systems and bigotry and privilege. you thought they were books about what it means to struggle. you thought they were about having power and still using it for good rather than for control. he spooned you a narrative of being a good guy, a kind soul. you fucking bought what that fucking monster sold.

maybe that's why they were fantasies, after all.

#spilled ink #warm up #oh im .... sick to my stomach.#i talked to him. like ....... we talked. that man interacted with my poetry and writing.#that article.... gutwrenching. i am so sorry to everyone he's ever even been in the room with.#i feel.... like... unbearably. sick.#he acted like he was cool and friends with me!! we were cool internet writers together!!!!!#i feel sick for even having been polite to him.#i ...... am experiencing something so fucking complicated.#i wonder how many of u are feeling that too. like ''oh i sent him an ask and he was funny and sweet''#THATS HOW THEY GET U. ..... and YES I KNOW!!!#i am so fucking well-read about parasocial relationships. it would just be nice to like. trust that someone ISNT #hiding a huge fucking background of BEING A COMPLETE MONSTER. LIKE WHAT THE FUCK.#by the way i am not part of a fandom. this is “what the fuck i accidentally supported a rapist” not #“but my showww”. like i care far more about like. the human cost.#but also like... people are people. idk i saw a take on here about how nobody should mourn the books #and idk. people almost always reply to any scenario with their personal experience first -#''i knew him'' or ''wow i was just at that store'' or ''i grew up there'' or whatever. because that is how we establish connection &#emotional weight. that's just... a person thing. and there is a difference between 'oh this guy is a monster'' & the feeling of:#he's been a monster and i SUPPORTED THAT. i CELEBRATED him. i !!! a fucking victim myself!!!!!!!!! SUPPORTED . HIM.#i am sick. i feel so much pain for her and everyone he's ever hurt. saying ''the books are ruined'' is i think ... like how people say #they're shocked and disgusted by him. (obviously there's nuance here. im sure there's some creep doin it wrong. but u know. in general)#idk..... im an author. i understand my work is in your life in whatever small way. i understand that connection. it's real.

There’s a new drug in Gotham making the rounds, one synthesized by Two-Face’s people; if you take it you will have a 50/50 chance that you’ll experience the greatest high of your life or that you’ll die.

Batman is desperately trying to find the main lab and cut off the production from the source and hasn’t been able to find a lead in weeks.

That’s when Gordon gives him a file that was given to him by a “white haired ghost kid”. It’s a detailed report written similarly to a scientific journal with detailed sources that are mainly first hand accounts from deceased victims of the Two-Face drug.

At the very end of the paper there’s an address to a Gotham University dorm room with a sticky note next to it that says “if you need help with death or the undead. Yours truly; Danny Fenton.”

#guys look at the tags I’m too lazy to add it to the main post #my thoughts as to why Danny hated English is because he’s helped write so many scientific papers for his parents the writing style #is ingrained into his day to day writing. this time tho he was trying to be professional for The Batman #he doesn’t want to step on Batman’s territory but since he now lives in Gotham might as well give the main powerhouse a #‘high just letting you know I’m in your city now’ gift #he doesn’t even try to hide his identity because he knows that Batman will find it eventually.#might as well help and fulfill his obsession as a consultant to the Bats #Batman now asks Danny to help with communing with the dead to help solve cases #dpxdc #danny phantom #dp x dc #bones prompts #bones writes in the tags
