now that trump has tiktok, twitter, facebook and insta in his pocket, get ready for a massive wave of internet censorship. one of trump's greatest weapons has always been misinformation; it's going to become harder and harder to spread facts and criticism going forward. posts that aren't made invisible will be magically ignored by the algorithm. dissidents will have their accounts deleted and voices erased.

this is a suppression tactic. this is another stage of fascism.

Me: Alright I’m going to be super productive tomorrow!

Me, the second my alarm goes off:

you know what? fuck this. some of you chuckle fucks really dont understand the way the world works so listen up as a real queer elder tells you what's up. a blade is not an honourable weapon, for all it can do is cut cut cut cut. the hammer can borh destroy and create, the axe chops wood as well as it chops flesh, but the blade exists to cause suffering and pain. to wield the blade with any skill is to accept that you are a monster beyond reproach and will kill unceasingly until you have cut away all parts of yourself that would cry.

I think instead of lame excuses like "Cass is away in Honk Kong" or "[x bat] is doing stuff from his team of heroes" or just ignoring Steph's existance altogether, it would be funny if fanfics took members of the Batfam out of comission by having them have their own fanfic-related cliché adventure

Like, a Jason-centered fic where he asks Alfred where is the replacement and Alfred just goes "oh, Master Timothy has just been possesed by himself from thee-years into the future and is away trying to prevent our horrible deaths" and that's it, Tim is having his own time-travelling fix-it fic in the background which is why he's not mentioned

Babs on a Babs-centric fic where she could really use some advice asking Bruce on comms where her Batgirls are and Bruce non-chalantly answers "Steph has been hit by a love potion and Cass has offered to help her to her apartment", Babs waits a moment and comments "oh... do we get the 'congrats on kissing' banner ready for tomorrow?", "no, I think it's a slow burn, give them a week" and the rest of the fic happens without them

Dick, entering a room and finding Duke "hey, is Damian acting weird this morning or what?" "I think he said something about being stuck on a time-loop until he learns the true meaning of christmas" "aren't we on july?" "Yeah I thought so too but when I asked he mentioned he had already gotten my help on two loops so I just left him be" "well I needed help with a case, you in?" and the rest of the fic is a Dick and Duke team-up

Fucked up that you have to go to work during the winter. Should be curled up in a little nest with several months' supply of food stocked up right now.

Just had a real life Tumblr black-out poetry moment where I said out loud "I'm never topping that." and then followed up with "I'm never topping."

dont know how to explain this to people nicely anymore so i will simply be an asshole and speak in bullet points. getting sexually abused and preyed on in his early years is kon’s canon event. what you see in the retconned/softbooted versions seem confusing and or antithetical at times because editorial routinely ignores his sexual abuse. his youthful arrogance cannot be separated from his sexual proclivities. he desires women carnally, but does not know how to be around them without being weird about it because of his history. he sucks at holding down a girlfriend and being a good partner because his formative experiences were with an abuser and with an older woman who had unfair expectations of him. he would have ended up with knockout in another world because he doesn’t perceive her preying on him as anything bad. all his writers between 1993-2002 (except didio) have consistently highlighted that knockout and tana contribute to his depression, feelings of helplessness, and abnormal sexual behaviors. say it with me, lads. kon el is a victim of child sex abuse. it warped his ideas of sexuality, his performance of masculinity, and his idea of what constitutes a ‘normal’ life. due to being a clone (regardless of which dad-canon you prefer), the abuse is foundational as to why he struggles so deeply with the women around him.

saying “be safe” like a spell that’ll protect them

Just saying Dick’s tendency to put random evidence in his mouth to determine what it is must've been such a pain for Bruce when he was a baby Robin. It probably prompted many panicked calls to Leslie about whether Dick was going to die.

"can we normalize-" NO!!!!!! we do not need to expand whats considered normal!!! we need to teach people to stop reacting judgmentally when encountering something new and weird!!!! things dont need to be normal to be respected!!!!!!!!!!
