What is it with fantasy high and girls dying before their lives ever began. How we can never really know who they are, or who they could’ve been. Brennan Lee Mulligan I will find you

on the topic of Greta, I was doing the math yesterday and if she's 38 in 2007 then she would be ~21 in 1990. I think it's impossible for her to come back in any way or form and my theory is because her remains are in the foundation.

But... but but but, just for one second, I wanna imagine...🥺🥺🥺

happy pride month everyone!!!

i've been looking at microlabels because i was feeling kind of inspired and i have been HORRIFIED to realize that one of MY microlabels has the most GOD AWFUL FLAG ive ever seen... i'm going to put it under a Read More because it's so ugly and because this post ISNT ABOUT HER, but i redid the flag myself, using some flower knowledge!

so behold!!!

the NEW AND IMPROVED.... SAPIO FLAG!!!

people who are sapio will start to feel a connection based on their partners' smarts and intellect! whether it's their verbocity, their quick-thinking, their mastery of their skill or interests, their certainty and astuteness will amaze and befuddle their sapio partner (which, in this case, would be me!!!)

inspired by the noble and beautiful IRIS, an orchid which is associated with intelligence, connection, partnership, and equality (purple irises in particular are associated with passion, the mind, and justice)! I literally just color-picked and adjusted it to be easy on the eye

so if you're like me and you've been wanting to rock a sapio flag that doesn't look like dogshit, this one's for you! go forth and use it to signal your appreciation/love/attraction to your clever-as-hell partner(s)!!!

original sapio flag under the cut... and no, i'm not joking...

THIS is the original flag. and brother... this is a face that only a mother could love 😔✊💔💔💔

I'm willing to at least hear out most of the "xyz plot point is heavily tied to abc cultural context" brands of posts but the "wwx isn't meant to be read as morally gray" and "the western fandom made up Sizhui being wangxian's son" brands of post make me feel like my cultural ignorance is being used to gaslight me

I'm bet Georgie felt bad that she couldn't get Jamie braces sooner.

I'm sure :( Mom guilt is killer

But I think Georgie probably has a lot of memories of Jamie's childhood where she feels like she wasn't enough and wishes she could've given him more where Jamie feels the complete opposite and would never even think to blame her, and I think that's probably one of them

I think my least favorite Star Trek fumble is when the writers are clearly trying very hard to set up a cute romance, but they make the (otherwise perfectly normal) male characters act so obsessive and weird that their behavior just comes off as wildly inappropriate

I think for me it would be a tie between the 9th grade World History teacher or my English 12 teacher.

I think I’ve talked about the history teacher before but the English teacher was something else. She had up in writing a little class clause in the syllabus about how the students with late night/long jabs were basically excused from dozing off because she understands. She had all of the lessons in the online catalogue for anything students may have missed for this exact reason. I was 17 doing manager level-work until close to 2am so I would get sleep anywhere I could afford to. The teacher who was supposed to be understanding of our lives outside of school would shake me awake, ask about why I was so tired, and compared my paychecks to grades the same week I had been dealing with a FAT VET BILL for my parakeet; AND, she told me that while my grades wouldn’t pay vet bills they could ‘help me get into veterinary school’ as if that was supposed to mean anything to me.

Fuck you Mrs. Smith, no one fucking liked you anyways, I hope your car stops in the middle of the freeway.

does everyone have a teacher that they still have beef with/ hold a grudge against today??

"but the balance was shattered when a wealthy individual engineered a child without flaws. this child could adapt to anything, yet he revered nothing. he soared above every rule and sneered at order itself. cracks in the system appeared, and where there are cracks, rebellion follows.

but we all know that rebels, in any universe, are branded as traitors. and they are forever condemned in history."

I wish I could find the clip, but today my friend showed me a clip of himself and some of his friends livestreaming playing some video game, and when I tell you he had the only braincell there...the clip that took me out tho was his monologue to try to get the others to play the game better. just imagine a fucking storybot getting taller and shorter while ranting about "if you would all get your CRAP together and stop shooting at each other all the--put the gun down--PUT. THE GUN DOWN. Okay now if we all just work together and stop killing each other then MAYBE we can be successful here..."

sometimes I still think abt aya and hardy. not because I care but because I don’t care :( I thought hardy was a cute character and I was hoping aya would have her cool hero moment in the actual story. they could’ve been more, and I’m always a little sad that they basically don’t develop for the whole game.

I really like the whole “other members of the Batfam can mimic the Robin, report! to a degree where they actually respond as if it’s Batman,” but I raise you:

What if other Gothamites learned to do the same thing?

The first time it happens, Jim is panicking. He’s got an injured bird on his hands and no idea where Batman is. The kid isn’t responding no matter who asks questions, and suddenly the GCPD is treated to Commissioner Gordon doing a scarily good Batman impression, to the point Robin immediately responds

Word doesn’t necessarily get out right away. It happened in the precinct building, so the only witnesses were cops. But the rumors start in bars with drunk men telling anecdotes, with officers coming home with stories, and it spreads from there.

Eventually, people know that if you channel Batman and go “Robin, report!” the bird will go from gasping desperately in pain to a robotic list of injuries. EMTs learn to do this as part of their training. The Bats don’t go to hospitals, but they will let someone do emergency first aid on them.

Interestingly, it doesn’t just work on Robin. Gotham knows, regardless of what the rest of the world thinks, that their little birds grow up to become other Bats. It’s why their rivalry with Blüdhaven over Nightwing is so vicious. That’s their little bird the city is claiming. Blüdhaven did not raise him, Gotham did.

Of course, not all of the Bats were Robin. Signal flipped someone off for trying the trick, and Black Bat pulled out a sharpie and drew a sad face on a civilian’s hand when they were trying to see how injured she was after falling several stories due to a snapped grapple line. So, the trick isn’t universal.

The most surprising one was when someone found Red Hood, half-buried in rubble with a slash across his neck, and barked out the order in a panic and he immediately complied.

It wasn’t Batman who told the city he was their dead little bird. It was the panic of a passerby just trying to do the right thing.

After all, Gotham may not acknowledge it, but all of them love their birds. They are protectors, and not just from the rogues. They help with the murders, yes, but they also do small stuff. Stop muggings. Talk people down. Slip résumés into the right hands, guide people to the right clinics.

And just how the Bats protect and help the people of Gotham, Her citizens help and protect them.

Essential genres of webcomics, updated for 2024:

Gag-a-day strip with the art and writing of a forgettable newspaper comic, but which inexplicably has 25 years worth of intricate setting lore and requires a day-long archive binge to fully understand the context of a grade-school pun.

Self-proclaimed deconstruction of superhero comics or giant robot anime or magical girls or something that has the exact same plot beats as every other self-proclaimed deconstruction of superhero comics or giant robot anime or magical girls or something. If you support the artist's Patreon you can download alternate versions of selected pages where the protagonist has their tits out.

Webtoon that sprang into existence complete with a hundred thousand followers at some point in the last week; the art displays immense technical mastery of figure drawing, but absolutely no grasp of panel layout, and the writing's gender politics are weirdly reactionary for something whose official synopsis manages to use the word "queer" three times in the space of two paragraphs.

Long-form narrative which hasn't received regular updates in several years due to the author's incredibly demanding real-life obligations, but instead of cancelling the comic or going on hiatus, they continue to publish one page roughly every four months with the kind of grim determination normally associated with historical anecdotes about the Battle of Stalingrad.

Fantasy adventure comic which you strongly suspect, but cannot prove, is a direct adaptation of somebody's high school GURPS campaign. The story is so elaborately and discursively plotted that you need to keep the fandom wiki open in a separate tab simply to remember who the fuck any of these people are.

Chicken-scratch parody comic about, like, Rainbow Brite fighting the Care Bears or some shit that somehow has better writing than anything on Netflix.

Semi-autobiographical slice of life comic, except with robots.
